Add AMC+ to the list of streaming services serving up exclusive movies. Every week in November, subscribers will get access to “Friday Movie Streamieres.” In the case of the Bruce Willis movie, “Apex,” the film will hit AMC+ on the same day it arrives in theaters. While these aren’t exactly blockbusters, this is a unique value for subscribers of the service, and it hints at a more aggressive strategy for AMC+ moving forward.
