The company recently launched its FOX Movies Play and STAR Chinese Movies (SCM) Play ser­vices as complements to FOX Movies Premium (FMP) and SCM in several markets, including Hong Kong, Singapore and the Philippines. “This brings to viewers a better premium-movie-channel experience and allows them to catch up with their favorite content on FMP and SCM anytime, anywhere,” says Joon Lee, the senior VP of content and communications.
 
The company also recently rebranded its STAR Chinese Movies 2 channel as SCM Legend.
