Sky Cinema on demand

Sky's catalogue of on-demand films is impressive, and because Sky premieres a new film every day, you can access over a thousand movies on-demand at any time.

If you're signed up to Sky Cinema through Sky, you can watch these films in the on-demand section of your Sky Q device. You can also watch on the go with the Sky Go app or, if you subscribe through a different provider, you can often access these through their apps or through the Sky Cinema app.

How can I get Sky Cinema?

You can get Sky Cinema either through your provider or through NOW, Sky's flexible streaming service.

What TV providers offer Sky Cinema?

You can obviously get Sky Cinema if you're a Sky TV customer, but it's also available from major pay-TV providers like Virgin Media, BT and TalkTalk. All offer monthly add-ons so you can get Sky Cinema, although the latter two do so via a NOW Cinema TV membership.

Sky Cinema on NOW

You can also sign up for a 30-day Sky Cinema pass on NOW. This gives you access to all 11 Sky Cinema channels as well as Sky's on-demand film catalogue so you can get Sky Cinema without a fixed-term TV contract.
