Fox Action Movies was a Southeast Asian pay television channel centered towards broadcasting action-themed and horror-themed films. It is owned by Fox Networks Group Asia Pacific. The channel's feed-in India was rebranded as Star Movies Action on 2 June 2013 while the Asian counterpart continued broadcasting. 5.1 Dolby Sound is available on HD channel only.[2][3]
On 1 October 2021, Fox Action Movies and 17 other Fox/Disney-owned channels across Southeast Asia ceased broadcasting. The last film to air was Big Freaking Rat. However, the Middle East and North Africa feed operated until 1 March 2024, when it was rebranded as Star Action, which adopted the name of one of multiplex Star Premium channels in Latin America that originally was used in 2021.[4]
