Apple has a bigger-than-usual slate of new movies and shows arriving this month. Here's what we can't wait to watch.

Apple TV holds the distinction of being one of the only streaming services to offer only original content on its platform: You won’t find a rotating library of blockbusters and classic sitcoms there. Instead, you’ll get a tightly curated collection of interesting content for kids and adults alike. That includes shows such as Widow’s Bay, The Morning Show and Shrinking and movies such as F1: The Movie — all produced by and for Apple. 

Because Apple’s content collection is thoughtfully curated, it doesn’t release as many titles each month as some of its competitors, but what it does put out always piques our interest.

This month, two of the platform’s new original films happen to deal with mountain climbing. In the documentary The Last First: Winter K2, a mountaineering team attempts to climb the second-highest peak in the world, K2, in winter, and the result is brutal, nerve-wracking and tragic. And the new drama Tenzing, which stars Genden Phuntsok, Tom Hiddleston and Willem Defoe, tells the story of sherpa Tenzing Norgay, who was instrumental to the success of the first completed climb of Mount Everest in 1953.

Also arriving this month is the action-packed Matchbox: The Movie, starring John Cena, and the critically acclaimed British series Small Prophets. These are just some of the new releases arriving on the platform. Here’s a look at the biggest Apple TV originals coming to the platform in October.
