Apple TV’s latest movie, Eternity, has proven an early hit after one week of release, and the strong lineup of movies coming throughout the year should keep Apple’s film success going.

Eternity has beaten F1: The Movie for a full week on Apple TV top charts

The latest Apple TV film, Eternity, arrived just in time for Valentine’s Day last week and has quickly racked up a lot of views.

Eternity displaced F1: The Movie at the top of Apple TV’s movie charts. An A24 romantic comedy starring Elizabeth Olsen, Miles Teller, and Callum Turner releasing on Valentine’s weekend seemed destined for #1, but the surprise is how well its success has held up. Even a full week after release, it remains at #1 in the US.

It’s another hit for Apple, adding to a string of successful film launches, and the lineup of movies slated for 2026 looks set to continue that trend.

New Apple TV movies coming throughout 2026
