On which model TV did you want to watch a movie?

Is that model listed as officially supporting the Apple TV app?

Get the Apple TV app or Apple TV+ app on your smart TV or streaming device - Apple Support

How to watch Apple TV+ and more - Apple Support

If your smart TV is supported, then you may install the Apple TV app on there, or else it may be pre-installed.

If your smart TV is not supported, then you may connect a supported streaming device that has the Apple TV app.

With the Apple TV app on your smart TV or third party streaming device, you can access:

iTunes Store movies and TV shows (buy or rent);
Apple TV+ channel featuring Apple Originals [1] [2], by subscription;
other premium Apple TV app Channels, each by subscription.

Which movie did you want to watch? Movies from the iTunes Store will have to be rented or purchased. Movies from the Apple TV+ catalog require a subscription.

If you meant something else, then please elaborate.
