The Nvidia Shield box is one of the better ways to get 4K content onto a 4K TV, and it just added another source: you can now stream 4K movies and TV from Google Play. 

This could be the easiest way yet to watch 4K movies on the Shield TV — the box runs on Android TV, so depending on the selection it may save you the trouble of setting up a Vudu account.

The Shield update also includes 4K Google Cast support, so you can send 4K content from any Cast-enabled mobile app to your TV. It’s available today.
