From launch, “now on DVD” titles will include recent releases such as “We Bought a Zoo,” “The Woman in Black,” “The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel,” “This Means War” and “Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance” “Pay & play’” movies on NOW TV range from 99p for classic titles to £3.49 for the latest blockbusters.

NOW TV also offers the monthly Sky Movies Pass with “instant and unlimited” access to the entire Sky Movies collection. At any time, customers with a Sky Movies Pass can choose from over 600 movies.
