Epix has launched 4k Ultra HD streaming on Dish & T-Mobile’s Layer3 TV, providing select titles in 4k including movies like Arrival, The Magnificent Seven, Star Trek Beyond, Ben Hur and Transformers: The Last Knight.
James Bond franchise films will also be added later this year including Die Another Day, GoldenEye, Licence To Kill, Tomorrow Never Dies, Goldfinger, From Russia With Love, and The Spy Who Loved Me.
Epix is also available in Ultra HD through the Epix app for Apple TV 4k.
“EPIX is committed to embracing new technologies to provide subscribers with the best viewing experience of our premium original programming and movies,” said Monty Sarhan, EVP and General Manager of EPIX. “We are pleased to partner with DISH and Layer3 TV to deliver this advanced offering to a wider audience, and look forward to working with more distributors to include 4K Ultra HD as part of their entertainment packages.”
“While 4K televisions have become a staple in households throughout the U.S., 4K shows and movies are still a bit of a rarity,” said Vivek Khemka, DISH executive vice president and chief technology officer. “That’s why we’re continuously working to bring more of this content into our customers’ homes, and are pleased to work with EPIX so subscribers can access more TV in crystal-clear clarity, directly from their Hopper 3 and 4K Joey set-top boxes.”
“We’re hyper-focused on delivering the highest quality content to Layer3 TV customers,” said Jeffrey Binder, EVP Home and Entertainment, T-Mobile. “It’s something our customers have come to expect, and we’re thrilled to be one of the first to partner with EPIX to deliver their premium 4K content to Layer3 TV subscribers.”
