In two weeks DirecTV will add 4 new channels to the EN ESPAÑOL lineup, including Bandamax, De Película, De Película Clásico, and ViendoMovies. The channel availability will vary upon which Spanish-language service you subscribe to. Spanish-language packages include Más Latino, Optimo Más, Más Ultra, and Lo Maximo, priced between $34.99 and $124.99 per month. All 4 channels will launch on Tuesday, January 14, 2014. (See below for channel lineup.)
Bandamax provides Mexican lifestyle and music programming. De Película airs Spanish-language cinema, including drama, comedy, western and musicals. De Película Clásico broadcasts movies from the Golden Age of Mexican Cinema. ViendoMovies is a commercial free channel airing contemporary movies originally produced in Spanish.
