BEVERLY HILLS: The Starz and Starz Encore on-demand channels have been launched on the AT&T streaming service DIRECTV NOW.

The initial Starz on DIRECTV NOW offering gives subscribers access to 2,500 TV episodes as well as movies. This includes the Starz original series Outlander and Power, as well as the upcoming premiere of American Gods. Among the movies now available are Star Wars: The Force Awakens, Inside Out and Avengers: Age of Ultron.

In addition to Starz and Starz Encore on-demand content, three live premium channels—Starz, Starz Encore and Starz Kids & Family—are coming to DIRECTV NOW.

“With [the] launch on DIRECTV NOW, Starz is continuing to extend the reach of its flagship STARZ products in the marketplace,” said Jeffrey Hirsch, the COO at Starz. “The DIRECTV NOW offering is a terrific service for our collection of Starz originals and quality feature-film programming, which has proven to be very successful for the unmatched quality at an affordable price point. With DIRECTV NOW, AT&T is opening up barriers to entry that prevented a wide swath of audience from accessing our groundbreaking slate of originals and we are thrilled to work with them.”
