Acción por Movistar Plus+ (formerly Movistar Acción) is a Spanish television station owned and operated by Telefónica.

History[edit]

Canal+ Acción began its broadcasts on February 1, 2007, replacing Canal+ Cine 1 on the Canal+ satellite platform.[1] Its programming is focused on action and adventure films and TV series.

Since November 6, 2009, it broadcasts in 16:9 widescreen format.[2]

As of August 1, 2016, marking one year of the platform, it was renamed Movistar Acción, eliminating the Canal+ brand. This also brought about a new visual identity of the platform and the channel itself.

On January 19, 2022, Movistar+ changed its name to Movistar Plus+, a change that gave rise to a new name on its own channels and a new visual identity.[3] The channel was renamed Acción por Movistar Plus+.[4]
