Apple TV subscribers in the United States were reported to have received 13 additional films at the start of October 2026, including Martin Scorsese’s Taxi Driver. The list comes from a report by Stuff, not an Apple catalog announcement, and availability can differ by country.
Is Taxi Driver on Apple TV?
Taxi Driver is included in the October selection described by Stuff’s 2 October 2026 report. That means it was reported as part of the Apple TV subscription offering in the United States at that point. It does not guarantee that the film is playable today or that it appears in every country.

Apple TV’s movie rights are territorial. Services in other regions may hold the licenses, so the Apple TV app in your country is the final check. Search for Taxi Driver in the app and confirm that the title is included with your subscription rather than offered only as a separate rental or purchase.

Stuff identified the following films as additions to the Apple TV subscription selection:
#1 Best Overall
- Winner of the prestigious Golden Palm at the Cannes Film Festival (1976) and nominated for 4 Academy Awards including Best Picture (1976), TAXI DRIVER stars Robert De Niro in Martin Scorsese's classic film of a psychotic New York cabbie driven to violence by loneliness and desperation. Co-starring Jodie Foster, Albert Brooks, Harvey Keitel, Peter Boyle and Cybill Shepherd.
| Film | Film | Film |
|---|---|---|
| American Gangster | Good Will Hunting | Insomnia |
| 28 Days Later | Taxi Driver | Jurassic World |
| Black Hawk Down | Going the Distance | Fury |
| Tropic Thunder | The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo | Fallen |
| Blood Diamond |
These are licensed films reported as part of the subscription catalog; they should not be described as Apple-produced movies. The selection also should not be treated as permanent. The report gives no removal date.
Why Taxi Driver stands out
Taxi Driver is the Martin Scorsese film named in this group, which explains the focus on it in the headline. The report establishes its inclusion in the October list, but does not include an Apple statement or details about how long the license will last.
Rank #2
- Blu-ray
What viewers should check before watching
- Open the Apple TV app in your own country.
- Search for each title by its exact name.
- Check whether the play button says it is included with your Apple TV subscription.
- If the app shows only a rental or purchase option, the reported subscription inclusion may not apply to your region or may have ended.
Because the source is a dated secondary report rather than a live Apple catalog snapshot, the app’s current listing takes priority over the October report.

Apple TV has made similar batches before
Stuff also said an August batch contained The Martian, Arrival, The Bourne Identity, Looper, E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial, The Proposal, I, Robot, Forgetting Sarah Marshall, 21 Jump Street, The Sixth Sense, Gone Girl, Zoolander, Zodiac, Charlie’s Angels, Titanic, Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol, A Beautiful Mind, The Aviator, and The Rookie. That earlier list is attributed to the same report and has not been independently confirmed here against every regional Apple TV catalog.
Independent reader supportYour contribution helps us test, update, and keep practical guides available for everyone.Are all 13 films “classics”?
“Classic” is headline framing rather than an objective label applied to every title. The October group mixes older, widely known films with more recent blockbusters and genre movies. The concrete claim is narrower: these 13 films were reported as October additions to the Apple TV subscription selection.
