Apple TV Expands Library with Free Streaming of Classic Films

Apple TV has recently enhanced its streaming service by adding a selection of classic movies available to subscribers at no additional cost. This expansion introduces a variety of well-known films to the platform’s existing lineup of original content.

Users can access these titles through the ‘Great Movies Available Now on Apple TV’ section within the Apple TV app. The availability of specific movies may vary by region, but in the United States, the new additions include:

  • The Martian
  • Arrival
  • The Bourne Identity
  • Looper
  • E.T.
  • The Proposal
  • I, Robot
  • Forgetting Sarah Marshall
  • 21 Jump Street
  • The Sixth Sense
  • Gone Girl
  • Zoolander
  • Zodiac
  • Charlie’s Angels
  • Titanic
  • Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol
  • A Beautiful Mind
  • The Aviator
  • The Rookie

These films, which were previously available for purchase or rental, are now accessible for free streaming to Apple TV subscribers. New users can take advantage of a seven-day free trial, after which the service costs $12.99 per month or $99 per year. Apple TV is also included in the Apple One bundle, offering a comprehensive package of Apple’s subscription services.

The Apple TV app is compatible with a wide range of devices, including iPhone, iPad, Mac, Android, Windows, and more. Additionally, users can stream content directly through web browsers at tv.apple.com.

In addition to these classic films, Apple TV continues to expand its library of original content, which now includes over 300 titles. While the platform has gained recognition for its original television series, it is also investing in original films. The upcoming action-comedy ‘Mayday,’ starring Ryan Reynolds and Kenneth Branagh, is set to premiere in September.

By incorporating these classic movies into its catalog, Apple TV aims to provide a more diverse viewing experience for its subscribers. This move not only enhances the value of the subscription but also positions Apple TV as a more competitive player in the streaming market, appealing to a broader audience with varied tastes.
