MGM+ is the rebranded version of Epix, MGM’s streaming service with a range of blockbusters such as No Time to Die, Top Gun: Maverick and The Magnificent Seven, as well as TV series such as Godfather of Harlem and From.
The standalone streaming service is currently exclusive to the US. However, there are multiple ways to watch MGM content in the UK and other countries abroad. Here is everything you need to know – we also have similar guides for The Criterion Channel and CWTV .
Using a VPN allows you to connect to a server that makes you appear as if you’re based in another country. This means that you can access sites that are geo-blocked in other countries, such as MGM+.
MGM+ costs either $5.99 per month or $49.99 per year, but new users can get a seven-day free trial on the monthly plan, so you will only pay for the VPN (if you don’t already have one), as well as a $1 confirmation cost when you create your account.
