Apple TV just revealed two new movies coming soon

Apple TV already had a packed movie lineup laid out for this year, but the streamer recently revealed two more titles that are coming—one of which premieres next month. Here are the details.

New film from John Travolta coming to Apple TV, plus feature-length Peanuts title

Last week brought the latest Apple TV movie, a dark comedy starring Keanu Reeves called Outcome. It also stars Cameron Diaz, Jonah Hill, and Matt Bomer. You can watch Outcome here on Apple TV.

But Apple just slotted two more movies into its lineup: one that’s releasing surprisingly soon, plus another expected later in the year.

Propeller One-Way Night Coach is a new film from John Travolta, making his directorial debut.

Travolta serves as writer, director, narrator, and producer. The film is based on his previously published book of the same name.

Propeller One-Way Night Coach will stream Friday, May 29 exclusively on Apple TV.

Here’s the official plot summary:

Set in the golden age of aviation, a young airplane enthusiast, Jeff (played by newcomer Clark Shotwell), and his mother (Kelly Eviston-Quinnett) set off on a one-way cross-country odyssey to Hollywood, which transforms a simple flight into the trip of a lifetime. Between airline meals, charming flight attendants (played by Ella Bleu Travolta and Olga Hoffmann), unexpected stopovers, larger-than-life passengers and a thrilling glimpse at first class, the journey unfolds in moments both magical and unexpected, charting the course for the boy’s future.

Another addition to Apple’s movie lineup was revealed this week during CinemaCon.

Snoopy Unleashed is a feature-length animated film that joins Apple’s existing catalog of Peanuts titles.

This is only the second Peanuts feature ever created, following 2015’s The Peanuts Movie, which was a hit at the box office.

Details on the new film’s release date have not yet been shared. Indications point to Snoopy Unleashed heading straight to Apple TV rather than getting a theatrical bow, however.

Here’s Apple’s plot summary:

When Snoopy runs away from home, Charlie Brown and the Peanuts gang go on an emotional and wondrous journey to the vibrant Big City as they search for Snoopy and discover that real friendship means loving each other just as they are.

We’ll keep you posted when more details around Snoopy Unleashed’s release are shared.
