Apple TV just launched three new originals, including a thriller series

Apple TV subscribers can now watch three new originals, including a thriller series, a movie based on true events, and the first of two holiday specials coming to the platform this season. Watch the trailers below.

Apple TV premieres sometimes overlap, giving subscribers multiple new titles to watch on the same day. Tonight, however, the platform is having a triple debut.

Being Heumann

The first is “Being Heumann,” which tells the true story of how Judy Heumann led a protest in 1977 that resulted in the longest occupation of a federal building in U.S. history.

The film is directed by Siân Heder, whose previous film, “CODA,” earned Apple its first Academy Award for Best Picture, in addition to Best Adapted Screenplay for Heder and Best Supporting Actor for Troy Kotsur.

The premiere of “Being Heumann” also marks the debut of Apple TV’s new Sign Language Accessibility feature, which allows viewers to watch select titles with an American Sign Language (ASL) or British Sign Language (BSL) interpreter appearing in the corner of the screen.

In addition to “Being Heumann,” the feature is also available for “F1 The Movie,” with “Greyhound” and “Way of the Warrior Kid” gaining support later this year. The latter will be presented on November 25.

12 12 12

The first two episodes of Apple’s anticipated thriller series “12 12 12” are now available.

Along with Anthony Mackie (Captain America: Brave New World) and Jamie Dornan (Belfast), the series also features Patrick Fabian (Better Call Saul) and Kali Reis (True Detective: Night Country), among others.

Here’s Apple TV in the new show, which will release new episodes every Friday until December 25:

Each episode of “12 12 12” takes place across three timelines of a heist: the 12 months of planning, the 12 hours of the heist and the 12 days following it. The series follows a disgraced FBI agent (Anthony Mackie) and an American career criminal (Jamie Dornan) as they play a zero-sum game of cat and mouse across Europe. At the center of it all is the daring and epic raid on a bank vault deep in the streets of Zurich.

Snoopy Presents: 12 Days of Snoopy

The first of two holiday specials coming to Apple TV this season, “Snoopy Presents: 12 Days of Snoopy,” is now also available to stream, the other being “Fraggle Rock: A Holiday Gift,” which arrives Dec. 4.

The premiere marks the latest release in Apple’s ongoing partnership with Peanuts and joins a growing collection of original Peanuts productions, alongside classics such as “A Charlie Brown Christmas,” “A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving” and “It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown.”

In fact, “A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving” is streaming for free on the platform this weekend, meaning even those who don’t have an Apple TV subscription can watch it.

Returning to “Snoopy Presents: 12 Days of Snoopy”, it follows Snoopy as he attempts to get off the naughty Santa list in the 12 days before Christmas, learning along the way that “Christmas is about more than getting presents.”
