How to cast iTunes movies/TV shows to Chromecast?

Can I cast media from iTunes to TV using Chromecast?

With Chromecast, you can cast TV shows, movies, music, games, sports and more from thousands of apps such as YouTube, Netflix, Spotify, HBO NOW, HULU, etc. (See all supported apps: https://www.google.com/intl/en/chromecast/tv/chromecast/apps/ ) to your TV. Unfortunately, iTunes is not included. Although you can also cast local content via Chrome browser, the bad news is movies and TV shows purchased/rented from iTunes store are in DRM protected M4V format and can’t be played in Chrome. While, if you can remove DRM from iTunes movies/TV shows and convert them to common video formats, such as MP4, you can play them with Chrome browser and then cast to TV through Chromecast .
