Send video to Chromecast through Airplay via Home Assistant (lemmy.world)

I have a Samsung TV, a Google Chromecast and an iPhone. I want to watch a movie on Apple TV+ on my TV, but my Chromecast doesn't support Airplay, and Apple TV+ doesn't support Google Cast. My Samsung TV supports Airplay, but I don't want it on the internet at all.

Is there a way to connect via Airplay to Home Assistant, and redirect the data to the Chromecast (Home Assistant is like a middleman)?

EDIT: This is a chromecast without any app support (ie: no Google TV).

The movie is broadcast from the Apple TV app, so it doesn't work with Chromecast in any way, even if the movie is downloaded.

There are "ways" to download movies.
