How do you turn off the narrator within a movie on your Apple TV

I just purchased "Spy" through movies on my Apple TV. When it plays there is full narration. How do I turn it off? Thank you for your time everyone

The DVD version of that movie has the option for audio descriptions. It sounds like what you are hearing. You should be able to turn them off by following these directions:

To turn on the setting, go to Settings > General > Accessibility.

  • On Apple TV (4th generation), select Audio Descriptions.
  • On Apple TV (2nd or 3rd generation), select Video Descriptions.

If they're available, you can turn on audio descriptions while you watch a movie or TV Show:

  • On Apple TV (4th generation), swipe down on the Touch surface to open the Info panel, then swipe right to open the Audio panel. Swipe down and select the language option that you prefer.
  • On Apple TV (2nd or 3rd generation), hold down Select for three seconds to open settings. Select the Audio tab and choose the option that you prefer.

It is not the Apple TV voice over. That's already off. It is just narration during this one movie spoken narration not subtitles. I just downloaded it and it even describes the century 21 opening. I can't figure out how to shut it off. I have looked in the movie's extras and nothing I can see to turn it off.


If I can't come up with a solution I am going to return the movie as faulty as I refuse to watch it the way it is now.
