Movies and Cruising

The TCM Classic Cruise hasn’t sailed in 3 years, but Jennifer Dorian, General Manager of TCM & FilmStruck and EVP of 360 Brand Strategy for Turner, explained why the 25th anniversary of the company offered a unique opportunity to bring the cruise back.

“TCM has a passionate and devoted audience that is the driving force behind our success, and we wanted to do something special for our upcoming 25th anniversary to celebrate with our fans,” she said. “The TCM Classic Cruise has always been such a beloved fan experience that we felt this landmark anniversary was the perfect time to re-launch this immersive, curated and engaging fan experience.”
