From 01 July, M-Net will launch a brand new, feel-good movie channel – M-Net Movies Smile, which will offer plenty of chuckles for the entire family. As the name signals, this is the channel guaranteed to make viewers smile.
What’s more, the month of July will also bring with it new changes that include the revamp of M-Net Movies Showcase. The addition of M-Net Movies Smile (DStv channel 105) and the revamp of M-Net Movies Showcase (moving from DStv channel 108 to 107) will mean that three of the existing movie channels – M-Net Movies Comedy (DStv channel 104), M-Net Movies Family (DStv channel 105) and M-Net Movies Romance (DStv channel 107) will no longer exist. Fans of these channels should not despair as the content previously available on these three channels will be consolidated into the new M-Net Movies Smile and the revamped M-Net Movies Showcase channels to ensure that viewers continue to enjoy their favourite movie genres.
- M-Net Movies Premiere West will now be on channel 108. It will continue to bring you the latest, biggest and best premiere movies – anything from Kevin Hart comedies to Oscar-winning dramas.
- M-Net Movies Smile – channel 105 on DStv Premium is the new kid on the block that will keep everyone who’s young at heart entertained with fantastic animated and family-friendly films. Then once the kids have gone to bed, the grown-ups can enjoy sidesplitting comedy with the likes of Adam Sandler or Melissa McCarthy.
- M-Net Movies Action Plus – channel 106 on DStv Premium will still showcase the biggest, most explosive action movies. Watch Vin Diesel, Keanu Reeves and all the action heroes save humanity from all kinds of evil.
- M-Net Movies Showcase – channel 107 on DStv Premium. Apart from being able to indulge on this channel’s usual host of lovely festivals, box sets and franchise specials and to watch the blockbuster movie that previously premiered on Sunday nights every night in prime time, this will now also be the go-to destination for all romantics that want to be swept away by love stories and enchanting storytelling.
- M-Net Movies Stars – channel 111 on DStv Compact, Compact + and DStv Premium. You can continue to enjoy the company of Hollywood’s A-list stars in exactly the same way as before.
