Black Screen when attempting to use MPMoviePlayer

I am using MPMoviePlayer to display a video from an external URL onto my iPhone App, however when I run the App a black screen is all that shows. Here is the URL I am using:

2015-04-27 00:11:29.655 Floadt[21069:2598414] http://ift.tt/1HMhFmp

Here is my code to try to setup MPMoviePlayer:

if (entry[@"videos"] != nil) {
    NSLog(@"There is a Video: %@", entry[@"videos"]);
    NSString *urlString = entry[@"videos"][@"standard_resolution"][@"url"];
    NSLog(urlString);
    NSURL *url = [NSURL URLWithString:urlString];
    MPMoviePlayerController *player = [[MPMoviePlayerController alloc] initWithContentURL: url];
    [player prepareToPlay];
    [player.view setFrame: CGRectMake(10, 65, 299, 299)];
    [cell.contentView addSubview: player.view];
    player.shouldAutoplay = YES;
    [player play];
}
