Top Movies on Apple TV+ for January 2024

As we enter the new year, January brings an exciting selection of films on Apple TV+. The streaming platform prioritizes its original content, distinguishing itself from competitors like Netflix and Hulu, which often feature acquired titles. Subscribers can look forward to an impressive lineup that includes award-winning films such as Killers of the Flower Moon and the Oscar-winning drama CODA, along with star-studded highlights like Wolfs.

Although several original movies have seen theatrical releases, Apple TV+ faced some issues recently, particularly highlighted by director Jon Watts regarding his experience while making Wolfs. Despite this setback, anticipation is high for upcoming projects such as Brad Pitt’s long-awaited Formula 1 film and the sci-fi thriller The Gorge, both scheduled for release in 2025. This month’s offerings promise to set the stage for what looks to be an exhilarating year ahead for the platform.
