Why would you go thru the hassle of buying a lightning (if iPhone) to hdmi cable, then the hassle of getting behind the tv finding an hdmi port if 1 is open. The best box to buy is the Apple TV 4K device where you can airplay from your iPhone or Mac.
But if it was me, I would get it off the phone and put the file on a computer, then have the Apple TV 4K box point to your computer they just play it from there. The Apple TV 4K box will link to your computer to stream music and videos as well as providing the ability to download apps like YouTube tv, paramount+, Disney, to stream all your tv and movie content. My Apple TV 4K box is the hub for my whole house automation too.`

You can go cheap by getting a firestick, chromecast, Roku solution, but they do very little compared to what the Apple TV 4K can do
