Yes, it does. I have a large Movies Anywhere library with over 600 movies. I have five family members connected through Apple iTunes family sharing. All the family members can see my movies that came through Movies Anywhere in the purchased family sharing section. The only exception is movies I own from other retailers from the two studios that don’t support Movies Anywhere. Oh, and of course TV shows are not supported either. I can also confirm that some HD movies coming from Movies Anywhere will also show up as 4K UHD with HDR or Dolby Vision if Apple has it available on an Apple TV 4K.

What about movie purchases made from your family members itunes account. Are they appearing on the movies anywhere app? I believe that was the reason for the question. I am finding movies anywhere is not compatible with family sharing.
That only works because once you link movies anywhere to an iTunes account its the same as if you bought them in iTunes, how do you do the reverse? My wife and I each have some movies on our iTunes account (which is family shared) but I can't see any of her movies via movies anywhere. (I can get to them all through iTunes, but that doesn't help me on devices that are not apple supported)
