This computer not authorized to play movie

hat should I do if, when I redownload the movie, a window continues to pop up stating this computer is not authorized to play [MOVIE]... and then, after re-authorizing, the movie won't play, you close the movie, reopen it and the same window appears.

Itunes Movies Showing Black Screen Whenever I try to watch The Batman (2022) on my MacBook, the screen is black. I have restarted my MacBook, reauthorized it, signed out and signed in to my iCloud account and deleted and re-downloaded the movie. Whenever I click on the movie for it to play it asked me to authorize my computer every time, and I do it every time but the movie still does not play. Also, the commentary and extras of the movie will play but not the regular movie itself. What should I do?

You could try removing the download and see if you can stream the movie instead. Not an ideal workaround but all I have for right now.

See if Apple Support have any suggestions for getting a working authorized download.
