History

In April 2005, ATN was granted approval from the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission to launch a television channel called ATN – Hindi Movie Channel Two, described as "a national ethnic Category 2 pay television programming undertaking devoted entirely to movies presented in the Hindi language."
The channel launched on October 19, 2005 as ATN Zee Cinema.
In 2011, ATN Zee Cinema unveiled a new logo and on-screen graphics to fall in line with its counterpart in India.
On July 25, 2012, ATN Zee Cinema was re-branded ATN Movies OK due to the loss of programming rights for Zee Cinema.
On September 25, 2012, ATN Movies OK's broadcasting license to operate as a pay service was revoked at ATN's request.
In October 2017, ATN Movies OK was renamed ATN Movies due to the loss of programming rights from Movies OK.
