Trailers for Apple TV movies won’t play.

For a few months now, when I try to play a trailer for a movie that is NOT a new release that I may rent or buy on Apple Movies, I’m taken back to the search screen, and the trailer won’t play. I stream TV with an Apple TV 4K.

I am having this exact same issue and on two separate Apple TV’s. One was Apple TV HD and the other was 4K. I use Siri to search a movie, click to play the trailer, and it goes straight back to the Watch Now tab of the Apple TV screen. Extremely annoying.
