Netflix has made very big news over the last few years because of all the excellent movies and TV shows they have produced. The streaming giant already has some very serious competition. It will be getting more competition before the end of the year. Apple TV+ will be launching very soon. Apple has been paying very close attention to the success of Netflix and Amazon. They want to avoid making many of the mistakes that both Netflix and Amazon did in their early days. Apple has seen that Netflix and Amazon have made a lot of good movies. Now Apple wants to get in on the act. They have announced a large slate of movies that they have produced. All of them will be available on Apple TV+.
The movies produced by Apple could possibly open in the theaters first. They want to do this to give people the chance to see their movies on a big screen. It will also make their movies eligible for Oscar consideration. Apple believes that they can contend with the other streaming services. The only thing that will allow this to happen is if Apple begins to spend a large amount on original content.
One of the very high profile movies that Apple is involved in producing is a Bill Murray film called “On the Rocks.” It is directed by Sofia Coppola. There is no question that Apple is taking the production of movies very seriously. They know that they will need to produce outstanding original content in order to attract people to their new streaming service. The competition from Netflix, Disney, HBO, Time-Warner, NBC-Universal and many other companies will be fierce. People will only have so much money to spend on streaming services every month. This means that Apple will need to set themselves apart from the pack to get the world to take notice.
Apple has said that they have a full slate of movies that are ready to begin production. They have not given many details about a lot of their projects. They have not even told the public who will star in them. However, it is very likely that the names will be very big. That is the advantage of being the largest company on the planet. It is unclear is Apple plans to follow the Netflix model of releasing some of their films in the theater and then on the Apple TV+ platform.
