Papa John's is no stranger to industry firsts; the brand was the first national pizza chain with digital ordering at all of its U.S. delivery restaurants in 2001.

"Pizza and entertainment are a natural fit," said "Papa John" Schnatter, Founder, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Papa John's. "With the launch of our Apple TV app, we're hoping to make family movie night and friend gatherings around the TV even more enjoyable by delivering the same quality product and experience our customers expect in a convenient and interactive way."
