What's on now
Now playing indicates what is currently being shown, broadcast, or performed.
It appears on movie theater marquees, streaming interfaces, and media players to identify the active content: Now playing: Episode 3.
The phrase functions as a label rather than a complete sentence, understood as shorthand for "what is now playing."
