Apple TV subscribers can now stream John Travolta’s first feature, Propeller One‑Way Night Coach, a film that doubles as his directorial debut and adapts a children’s novel he penned in 1997. The movie stars Clark Shotwell, Kelly Eviston‑Quinnett, Ella Bleu Travolta, and Olga Hoffmann, with Travolta narrating.

Premiering at the 79th Cannes Film Festival earlier this month, Travolta also received a surprise honorary Palme d’Or for his lifetime achievement. The story follows Jeff, a young aviation enthusiast, and his mother as they embark on a one‑way cross‑country flight to Hollywood, turning a simple trip into an unforgettable odyssey.

Set amid the golden age of aviation, the film mixes airline meals, charming flight attendants, unexpected stopovers, and larger‑than‑life passengers, giving viewers a glimpse of first‑class luxury alongside youthful ambition. Travolta’s narration ties the whimsical moments together, underscoring the boy’s journey toward a future shaped by adventure.

The film is now available to stream on Apple TV, a subscription service priced at $12.99 per month that also hosts hits like *Severance* and *The Morning Show*. Fans of Travolta’s earlier work will find the project a nostalgic return to his storytelling roots, while newcomers gain a charming aviation tale.
