RetroPlex is an American premium television network which only features older motion pictures. It is a spinoff of the MoviePlex and is owned by Starz, LLC.[3] The headquarters of RetroPlex and its sister channels MoviePlex and IndiePlex are located on the Meridian International Business Center complex with Starz and Encore in Meridian, Colorado.[4]
On April 5, 2016, Starz was rebranded and added all the Encore channels to its moniker, therefore increasing the Starz channel lineup to 14 Starz movie channels. Its main channel was rebranded "Starz Encore" and carries reruns of Starz originals in addition to films.[5][6]

RetroPlex is available nationally on Dish Network [7] and regionally on select cable systems including Comcast,[8] Atlantic Broadband and Verizon FiOS. Retroplex and Indieplex are also simulcast in 1080i high definition on Dish Network.[9]
