Some of the most interesting moments from AMC Global Media in months to come won’t be available on traditional screens

The company that owns AMC, IFC, HiDive and other properties is accelerating a move into unexpected venues, setting up connections with communities in places that may not previously have been associated with TV.

AMC has struck a new partnership with Meta, for example, that makes its programs and films available via Meta Quest, the standalone virtual reality headsets once known as Oculus. “We will be launching a number of our streaming apps on Meta Quest, starting with AMC+ later this year,” said Kim Kelleher, president and chief commerical officer of AMC Global Media, during remarks made at a presentation to advertisers Wednesday evening. “Our flagship streaming service will be one of the first entertainment apps available on this groundbreaking device. This is such a meaningful and expansive new partnership for our company and one that underscores our ability to move quickly and innovate to serve our viewers.”
