WWE WWE Night of Champions 2026 predictions and storylines

• Queen of the Ring Final: Liv Morgan vs. IYO SKY
• King of the Ring Final: Oba Femi vs. Jey Uso
• Steel Cage Match: Seth Rollins vs. Bron Breakker
• WWE United States Title Match: Trick Williams (c) vs. Ricky Saints
• WWE Championship Match: Cody Rhodes (c) vs. Gunther vs. Sami Zayn

Hot on the heels of WWE Clash in Italy last month, WWE returns to Riyadh, Saudi Arabia with Night of Champions 2026.

In the expected main event, it's Cody Rhodes defending his WWE Championship against Gunther and Sami Zayn in triple-threat action. After Sami had screwed up the past two matches between the American Dream and the Ring General, he's been rewarded with getting the chance to win a first World Title of his illustrious career. And given the reaction Zayn always gets in Saudi Arabia, it could prove to be a fantastic moment should Sami manage to the win in Riyadh.

Two other main attractions of WWE Night of Champions 2026 are the finals of the King and Queen of the Ring tournaments. With the winners of those tourneys earning themselves a World Title shot at SummerSlam later this year, it's Oba Femi vs. Jey Uso, and Liv Morgan vs. IYO SKY. Of course, there's also the presence of Brock Lesnar looming large over that KOTR bout, given recent shots Oba has taken at the Beast Incarnate. Interestingly, these two matches have been announced to open the show and will be airing on ESPN.

Rounding out the Night of Champions card, WWE United States Champion Trick Williams puts his gold on the line against Ricky Saints, which will mark a first-ever main roster PLE appearance from Absolute. Then there's the small matter of former stablemates Seth Rollins and Bron Breakker colliding within the confines of a steel cage, as this lengthy rivalry looks to finally come to a definitive end.

I've always loved Roku's straightforward, deliberately simple interface as an alternative to the ever-more-cluttered experiences on other TVs. It’s helped previous models in its TV lineup like the Roku Plus Series to become one of the best budget TVs.

But competition has heated up in this price range, and I don't think the Select Series is keeping up. Poor brightness is the dealbreaker for this TV, with dark and even some light scenes looking muddy or faded. Color is often quite good, and the audio is better than expected, but they can't make up for the often-dim screen.

For around $400, it’s a cheap TV that has a few merits, but if you want a screen with better brightness and color performance for around the same price, check out the TCL QM6K, Hisense QD7 or Vizio Mini-LED Quantum 4K TV instead.

Roku Select Series review: Pricing and availability

Priced at $379 at Best Buy (regularly $449), the 65-inch Roku Select Series 4K QLED (65R5D5) is the upper-middle tier of Roku's three-series TV lineup for 2026. Within the Select Series itself, the 43-inch model uses standard LED rather than QLED (incorporating quantum-dot color technology), while the 50-, 55-, 65-, 75-, and 85-inch sets all upgrade to QLED panels.

Stepping up from Select, Roku's Plus Series ($649 for a 65-inch screen) adds Mini-LED backlighting, Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos for more faithful video and audio play, Wi-Fi 6 (the latest standard), and an enhanced voice remote. Plus models from 2025 have fallen considerably, with last year's 65-inch Plus model selling for under $500 on Amazon. The flagship Pro Series is the only Roku-made line with a 120Hz refresh rate, currently around $899 in 65-inch trim.

Roku Select Series review: Design and ports

At 3.3 inches deep, the 65" Roku Select TV is a bit chunky. It has the standard design of all budget TVs: two plastic feet bear the ends of the panel and thin black bezel with minimal branding (a smallish silver "Roku" at the bottom-middle). On the back are VESA-standard screwholes in a 400 x 300 mm pattern for attaching to a wall mount.

When viewed from behind, the TV's power cord plugs in at the right, and all input and output ports are grouped in a column on the left. They include four HDMI ports (one with eARC, which can supply digital audio output to a soundbar or speaker system). They support only the 2.0 standard, which doesn't support capabilities such as 120Hz video input, though that might not matter much as the screen’s native refresh rate is limited to 60Hz.

The Select Series also features a SPDIF optical digital audio port and a single USB-A port that could load photos or videos from a USB stick. An ethernet port is on hand, as is a Cable/Antenna input that feeds an ATSC 1.0 tuner. The latter is limited to 1080p, standard dynamic range broadcasts, but that only matters if you use an antenna, rather than onboard streaming apps or a cable box that connects over HDMI.

How we test TVs at Tom’s Guide

We follow a standard testing protocol for every TV we review at Tom's Guide. Our benchmarks include a series of technical and subjective tests designed to rate the set's performance. For our technical tests, we set the TV to Filmmaker mode (usually the most accurate out of the box) and take measurements using a Jeti spectraval 1501-HiRes spectroradiometer, a Klein K10-A colorimeter, a Murideo 8K-SIX-G Metal pattern generator, and Portrait Displays's Calman TV-calibration software. We also use a Leo Bodnar 4K Video Signal Lag Tester for determining the TV's gaming prowess.

Subjective tests vary based on the reviewer but usually include anecdotes from a diverse selection of movies, TV shows, and other content reflecting the types of things you may actually want to watch on the TV. For a more detailed look at what we do and how we do it, check out our "How we test TVs" page.

Roku Select Series review: Performance

The 65-inch Roku Select shows pleasing, rather-accurate color in HD/SDR; but it's simply not bright enough to show a lot of content clearly — especially not in HDR. That’s a problem because HDR is no longer exotic: It's become standard on top streaming services and on Blu-ray discs. A TV that can't display HDR well, like this one, is hard to recommend.

To put it through its paces, I used Netflix's Strangers Things, Season 5, Episode 8 as it’s full of dark, forbidding scenes. They looked a bit muddy and grayish on this screen. Selecting the HDR+ Bright setting lightened up the shadows, but at the expense of black levels.

Chapter 4 of the "Spider-Man: No Way Home" Blu-ray fared better, but it’s still not up to par with some of its rivals. In some scenes, characters were lit well, such as the firelight illuminating the faces of Peter Parker and Dr. Strange, but in other scenes that wasn’t the case.

"Bridgerton" was especially disappointing. Season 1, Ep 3 (17:00-19:00 minutes in) displays complex indoor scenes/outdoor scenes, candlelight/sunlight, warm skin tones/pale complexions — and none of them looked especially good. One character's mop of blond hair nearly disappears in a sunny afternoon shot. There is a pallor over the colorful pastel dresses of four women in the same scene.

Indoor party scenes were also rather shadowy. Here toggling between the Standard, Bright, and Dark HDR+ settings made little difference. It's worth noting that this set does not support Dolby Vision, which includes extra metadata in content to help a TV display it more faithfully.

The Roku Select is fine for standard HD content, however. I found the YouTube edition of the gorgeous Bruno Mars video "Risk It All" to be an enjoyable watch. It begins with an outdoor scene and then transitions to a sunlit church interior. There aren't those challenging shadows where lower luminance can obscure detail, though. The Select also displayed motion smoothly, such as a difficult shot when the camera moves towards Mars, then rotates 90 degrees to show him from the side while backing away.

A few photos I shot while reviewing cameras for Tom's Guide also looked nice — including one with women of different skin tones by a fountain and another of a woman sitting on a bench. These were all outdoor shots by bright to very-bright light, however.

There's minimal difference between all other modes. With photos, Sports made images a tad warmer, sometimes livening skintones; and Vivid made them a bit cooler, deepening green foliage. (It also improved black levels, for instance in a photo of a blue neon sign at night.) The differences come down to a matter of personal taste.

Roku Select Series review: Test Results

*As measured in Filmmaker mode

Using its out-of-the-box Standard mode, we measured peak luminance (on a square covering 10% of the screen) at 397.6 nits, vs. an average of 927.0 for 65-inch TVs from 2025 and 2026. (They range from 228.7 to 2,908 nits.)

This Roku has several other picture modes, including Movie, Vivid, and Sports. Movie is the most color-accurate, by far. Similar modes on other TVs tend to be dimmer, but this TV was really dim. We measured 334.6 nits, vs. an average for rivals of 438.2.

To my eye, Standard beat Movie mode with Fellini's 1963 black-and-white surrealist film "8½." Standard gave light shades the hint of yellow you would expect in a black and white film shot over half a century ago, without overdoing it. The film looked quite yellow in Movie mode.

Color fidelity in Standard mode is better than average. We determine that with Delta-E, a measurement of how far colors on the screen vary from the signal we send to the TV. The lower the number, the more accurate the TV. We measured this Roku at 10.2. That's way higher than its value in Movie mode (2.45) but beats the average 11.9 for comparable TVs in Standard mode from the past couple years. Movie Mode color is also a skosh better than average — a Delta-E of 2.45 vs. 2.9 — but both numbers are firmly in the "too small to notice” range.

In practice, Movie Mode handled that aforementioned photo of the woman on the bench very well. She has a mid-tone complexion that could easily go wrong with bad color performance, as well as a wine-colored felt hat that could have gotten exaggerated.

Still, things are gloomy for fans of 4K/HDR content. In lab tests in Movie Mode, the TV's HDR brightness gave us a new all-time low against similar TVs: 334.6 nits vs the average of 1533.1 and max of 3685.4. This TV is in the lower half among peers for covering the Rec. 2020 gamut (72.36%) — though this will matter more when content actually is mastered in Rec. 2020. Right now, high coverage is more for bragging rights than anything else.

Roku Select Series review: Audio

The Roku Select offers pleasant audio, especially for a basic built-in system with minimal specs. The TV packs two speakers with the industry-minimum 10 watts each. It features basic Dolby audio technology, but not the richer Dolby Atmos standard (a feature of the step-up Plus Series).

The Bruno Mars "Risk It All" video sounded crisp and clear — from bright trumpets to the resonant guitar notes and his soulful voice. I recommend switching from Standard to Movie sound mode for all content for a more expansive experience.

A music video isn't too tough for a low-power speaker system. But I was especially impressed with the sound of Stranger Things, especially the crisp voices against the roaring background noise. Explosions had a booming sound without much distortion.

This is all graded on a curve, of course. For home theater sound, you can connect to a soundbar or speaker system over the eArc HDMI port or the SPDIF digital audio output. We have a list of the best soundbars if you’re not sure where to start.

Roku Select Series review: Interface and remote

I've been a fan of Roku's minimalist interface (on TVs, streaming sticks and streaming boxes) from early days. It's my interface of choice at home.

Popular apps are pre-installed and featured at the top of the app grid. You can easily move or delete them or add apps from a list of thousands (called Channels) that are supported. My one complaint is that the interface is a bit sluggish on this model.

The remote is streamlined without being too sparse. It features shortcuts to Netflix, Disney+, AppleTV+, and Amazon Prime Video, as well as a handy enhanced voice remote for easy searches. Roku's mobile app is equally handy should you misplace the clicker.

The ad-supported Roku Channel is shown discretely at the right side of the screen, instead of in-your-face as for other TV companies' video services (looking at you, Vizio). It doesn't have the latest blockbusters, but I have found noteworthy TV shows and movies such as "Frasier," "Longmire," "The Heat," and "Silence of the Lambs."

But make no mistake: Roku is a data and advertising company that may collect a lot of personal information. Like Vizio, Roku has found itself involved in several lawsuits over privacy. (The most recent of which is happening in Florida where the Florida Attorney General is currently suing the company, alleging that it "collected, sold, and enabled reidentification of sensitive personal data — including viewing habits, voice recordings, and other information from children — without authorization or meaningful notice to Florida families.")

No matter which smart platform you choose, however, you’re going to have to deal with a company that wants your viewing information. Roku is not substantially different in this regard, but I would be remiss if I didn’t at least mention Roku’s robust data collection policy.

Roku Select Series review: Verdict

I’m a huge fan of Roku TVs (as well as the brand’s streaming-device add-ons), but this model line won't make our list of recommendations. At under $400 for a 65-inch QLED, the Select Series competes most directly with the Vizio Mini-LED Quantum 4K Smart TV (also $398) and the Samsung Q6F ($449). The Hisense QD7 (currently $599 at the 65-inch size but found as low as $435) is a small step up in price but is one of my favorite models in this range.

If you’re dead-set on a Roku TV for the lowest absolute price, I wouldn’t fault you for choosing the Select Series — there are some redeeming qualities. Roku TV is set to get its biggest overhaul in years, and the Roku Channel offers some free streaming options if you don’t mind dealing with ads every few minutes.

Would this be the TV I’d pick out for a home theater or a living room that gets a lot of afternoon sun? Probably not, but you could certainly do worse.

Netflix has revealed everything coming to the streaming service in July 2026, and there are quite a few must-watch movies and shows. Top of the list is "Enola Holmes 3," Millie Bobby Brown's latest for Netflix. But the best movie to see this month is undeniably "Hamnet," which nearly won Best Picture at the Oscars earlier this year. It was one of my favorite movies of 2025 and you should make it a priority once it's on Netflix later this July.

These aren't the only titles to keep an eye on, though. "The Hawk" is a new comedy series starring Will Ferrell as an upstart golfer. Keeping things funny, you'll also want to check out "72 Hours," which throws Kevin Hart into a Miami bachelor party that he's way too old to be at. Finally, the MLB Home Run Derby is on Netflix this year, and you'll be able to watch it live on July 13.

Here's the full breakdown on everything you need to stream on Netflix this month.

New on Netflix in July 2026: Top picks

'Enola Holmes 3'

Genre: Mystery movie

What it's about: Millie Bobby Brown reprises as Enola, the sister of the famous investigator Sherlock Holmes (Henry Cavill). But she's the one stuck playing detective when he disappears right before her wedding to Lord Twekesbury (Louis Partridge).

Why you should watch it: If you watched the previous two installments in this franchise, you'll surely watch the third. But even if you haven't, the previous two movies did well among critics and audiences according to Rotten Tomatoes. So this movie might be worth checking out on its merits alone.

Stream "Enola Holmes 3" on Netflix starting July 1

'Hamnet'

Genre: Historical fiction drama movie

What it's about: "Hamnet" is based on Maggie O'Farrell's novel of the same name, and it tells the (somewhat true) tale of Agnes (Jessie Buckley) and William Shakespeare (Paul Mescal). It starts with their budding relationship, then transitions to a story about how their son, Hamnet (Noah Jupe), influenced one of the greatest plays ever written: "Hamlet."

Why you should watch it: This movie will almost certainly make you cry. In my review of "Hamnet," I mentioned I declared it a masterpiece that delivered one emotional hammer blow after another. I also declared Jessie Buckley a future Oscar winner, which was one of the easiest predictions I ever got correct.

Stream "Hamnet" on Netflix starting July 6

'The Hawk'

Genre: Comedy series

What it's about: Lonnie "Hawk" Hawkins (Will Ferrell) was the best golfer in the world in 2004. But it's now two decades later, and he'll need to go from washed-up legend to upstart contender if he wants to win the final, elusive major to complete his career Grand Slam and put him in truly rarified air.

Why you should watch it: Simply put, "The Hawk" looks fun. If you like Ferrell's brand of humor, specifically his sports comedies like "Talladega Nights" or "Blades of Glory," then you'll surely enjoy this new Netflix series. It doesn't hurt that he'll be acting alongside Molly Shannon and Luke Wilson, either.

Stream "The Hawk" on Netflix starting July 16

'72 Hours'

Genre: Comedy movie

What it's about: Joe (Kevin Hart) is a 40-year-old business executive who ends up accidentally added to the group chat of a bunch of 20-somethings. That could get crazy enough, but things go to a whole other level when he decides to join them on a three-day Miami bachelor party.

Why you should watch it: "72 Hours" might end up being more funny than good, but the trailer does show some promise that it'll at least be funny. Plus, the cast includes some "Saturday Night Live" cast members, Academy Award nominee Teyana Taylor and the legendary Andy Garcia. So, maybe it will be good after all.

Stream "72 Hours" on Netflix starting July 24

MLB Home Run Derby 2026

Genre: Live sports event

What it's about: The Home Run Derby pits some of Major League Baseball's best sluggers in a three-round contest of dingers at Philadelphia's Citizens Bank Park.

Why you should watch it: The MLB All-Star game itself might often disappoint, but the Home Run Derby rarely does. It's loaded with drama as some of the best hitters in the game unload homer after homer. The only catch? As of this writing, we don't know who those hitters will be.

Stream the MLB Home Run Derby 2026 live on Netflix starting at 8 p.m. ET on July 13

The Samsung S95H OLED TV might be my favorite flagship from the brand to date. It’s been designed to dominate both light-controlled home theaters and bright living rooms alike, defying the historic limitation that even the best OLED TVs can't handle high ambient light.

Samsung has delivered the brightest OLED TV we’ve ever tested. After hours of watching and gaming on the S95H, I’m confident you can comfortably watch this panel in any environment without worrying about a washed-out image. The combination of raw luminance and an incredibly effective glare-free display keeps the screen looking pristine, no matter the genre.

Alongside the premium picture tech, this set gets integration with Samsung's popular Art Store, allowing the TV to double as a high-end gallery piece when it's not in use. Then there’s a the controversial metal bezel bordering the screen, a feature I thought I’d despise but somehow grew on me — no, really.

While there are a few caveats I’ll note in my following Samsung S95H OLED TV review, overall, I think this set is a striking reminder at just how dominant modern OLED technology can be.

Samsung S95H OLED TV: Price and sizes

The Samsung S95H is positioned as a premium flagship set, and its pricing reflects its status at the top of the brand’s OLED lineup. While official launch pricing varies by size, it commands a top-tier premium:

• 55-inch Samsung S95H OLED (QN55S95HAFXZA): $2,499
• 65-inch Samsung S95H OLED (QN65S95HAFXZA): $3,399
• 77-inch Samsung S95H OLED (QN77S95HAFXZA): $4,499
• 83-inch Samsung S95H OLED (QN55S95HAFXZA): $6,499

I’ll remind you that OLED TVs come in fewer sizes than Mini-LED TVs. That said, if you want Samsung OLED at a lower price and with smaller screen sizes, the Samsung S90H is a compelling alternative. You will lose Art Store access as well as see some shortcomings in performance, detailed in charts further below.

Samsung S95H OLED TV review: Design, ports and connectivity

Samsung has made an… interesting design choice with this TV. It features a non-optional metal bezel that sits behind the screen, making the uniform chassis look like it’s floating off the wall when mounted. That said, you do get a set of sturdy metal feet included, which I used for the sake of this review.

I really thought I would hate the bezel, but I fear it’s grown on me. I can understand it might deter some shoppers but I think it ended up making this TV look as elevated as the picture ultimately proves.

It helps that Samsung no longer requires an external One Connect box by default for its flagship OLED now, too. Instead, the primary inputs are fully integrated directly into the back of the TV. You get 4x HDMI 2.1 inputs built right in with one supporting eARC. (You do have the option to add an external One Connect box separately, which grants an additional 4x HDMI 2.1 inputs on top of the integrated ones.)

Note that there isn’t an ATSC 3.0 tuner to support 4K over-the-air broadcasts. I’d recommend the Sony Bravia 8 II as an alternative OLED with the technology should that be a deal-breaker for you.

How we test TVs

We follow a standard testing protocol for every TV we review at Tom’s Guide. Our benchmarks include a series of technical and subject tests designed to rate the set’s performance.

For our technical tests, we use a Jeti spectraval 1501-HiRes spectroradiometer, a Klein K10-A colorimeter, a Murideo 8K-SIX-G Metal pattern generator, and Portrait Displays’s Calman calibration software to take measurements. We also use a Leo Bodnar 4K Input Lag Tester for determining whether it’s one of the best gaming TVs. For a more detailed look at what we do and how we do it, check out our “How we test TVs” page.

Samsung S95H OLED TV review: Performance

The primary storyline of the S95H is its outstanding overall picture quality, fueled by class-leading brightness. Testing scenes from “Top Gun: Maverick,” the sun-drenched nostalgia of the cinematography looked absolutely spectacular. Colors were highly accurate right out of the box, offering a deeply cinematic feel.

That said, Samsung's ongoing refusal to support Dolby Vision remains a point of contention. I always have to add a caveat here, especially when evaluating premium sets: Without Dolby Vision, you lose out on HDR highlights having that extra little bit of "pop" and dynamic refinement. Fortunately, the S95H's native panel brightness is so immense that I almost didn't miss it, but it's still a frustrating omission for purists.

When it comes to gaming, the performance is nothing short of immersive. Diving into Marvel's Spider-Man on PS5, the web-slinger has honestly never looked better. Fast-paced motion was handled brilliantly. Spinning helicopter blades remained perfectly clear, and the contrast and environmental reflections off city skyscrapers looked amazing. I noticed some very slight artifacting during intense, chaotic sequences, but generally, the motion was incredibly smooth. Watching sand flying around during heavy action scenes showed off a spectacular level of graphical pop that bursts right off the screen.

Samsung S95H OLED TV review: Test results

While our objective lab testing confirms that this is the brightest OLED we have ever put through our benchmarking pipeline, the final metrics tell a compelling story against its nearest premium competition.

The most remarkable takeaway from the bench tests is the S95H's staggering HDR brightness, clocking in at 2,721 nits. This draws a definitive line between where the S95H vs. S90H stand in Samsung’s OLED lineup, while also improving on the previous generation S95F's brightness by nearly 30%.

Combined with a blistering 9.7ms input lag and some of the best coverage you’ll find of both the Rec. 709 and BT. 2020 color gamuts, expect to see the S95H used as a point of comparison in many of our TV reviews going forward.

Samsung S95H OLED TV review: Audio

The audio system built into the S95H is pretty good for day-to-day viewing, though it naturally hits a physical limitation. Because the ultra-thin chassis isn’t as spacious as a bookshelf speaker’s, the audio leaves you wanting more when it comes to deep bass performance.

On the plus side, vocal clarity is rock-solid, meaning you won’t struggle to hear dialogue during quiet scenes. That said, to match a picture this elite, I highly recommend adding one of the best soundbars. Staying in-brand with the 2026 Samsung HW-Q990H to access Samsung's Q-Symphony feature makes a lot of sense here, as it allows the TV's integrated drivers to work in tandem with a compatible Samsung soundbar for a wider soundstage, but be prepared to pay a premium for Samsung’s top soundbar.

Samsung S95H OLED TV review: Interface

The S95H runs on the Samsung One UI TV interface, which feels more refined and highly functional than ever. A standout improvement is the navigation bar positioned right up at the top of the screen, which makes it significantly easier to find your apps, inputs, and settings without getting lost in endless menus.

For art lovers, the built-in Art Store is a major perk. It gives you access to a massive library of pieces to display when the TV is idle, turning a giant black rectangle into a focal point for your room. You do need a membership to enjoy it properly, though you can also sync the TV to the SmartThings app and upload your own photos to view.

Otherwise, navigation across the OS feels snappy, and downloading all the best streaming services is quick and painless. I do wish Samsung’s free content platform (Samsung TV Plus) didn’t autoplay with volume on start up, but it does offer a lengthy lineup of ad-supported shows and movies that, again, are totally free.

Samsung S95H OLED TV review: Remote

If I found one glaring flaw in the premium presentation of the S95H, it’s the included remote. For a flagship TV of this price tier, this rechargeable remote feels surprisingly cheap and plasticky in the hand.

Worse yet, it completely lacks a backlight. Finding buttons during a late-night movie session in a dark room becomes a guessing game. While it gets the job done and features standard shortcut options, it feels like an afterthought compared to the highly premium build of the TV itself.

Samsung S95H OLED TV review: Verdict

If your priority is securing unparalleled OLED picture quality that can thrive even in a sun-soaked living room, the Samsung S95H OLED TV is an absolute triumph. It has some noteworthy rivals like the LG G6 OLED, but for most folks, this will be the best TV you can buy in 2026.

Its best-in-class brightness levels and superb “Glare Free” panel make it a versatile beast for movies and gaming alike. You will have to live with a subpar remote and the lack of Dolby Vision support, but if you can look past those complaints, the pure visual horsepower on display here makes it one of the absolute best televisions I believe money can buy.

Now that summer is here, temperatures are only going to keep climbing, and the idea of staying indoors to watch Netflix instead of soaking up the sunshine might not appeal to everyone. But if you’re anything like me and struggle with the heat, you’d probably rather settle in with a new series and a fan blasting in front of you than melt outside.

Thankfully, Netflix keeps its library stocked with fresh content every week, so there’s always something new to binge.

To make your choice a little easier, I've picked three Netflix shows that are well worth watching. That includes an action drama following the crew of a naval destroyer as they fight to save humanity, the second season of the live action adaptation of “Avatar: The Last Airbender,” and a documentary exploring the origins of American democracy.

If you're spending the weekend with Netflix, these three new series should be at the top of your list.

‘The Last Ship’

“The Last Ship” is a post-apocalyptic military drama based on William Brinkley's 1988 novel of the same name. Executive produced by Hollywood blockbuster filmmaker Michael Bay, the series ran for five action-packed seasons, spanning 56 episodes before concluding in 2018. It follows the crew of a U.S. Navy destroyer as they respond to a global pandemic that wipes out more than 80% of the world's population. If you enjoy tense naval thrillers like “Crimson Tide” or “The Hunt for Red October,” this is well worth adding to your watchlist.

After a devastating global pandemic wipes out most of the world’s population, the crew of the USS Nathan James returns from a classified mission to discover that civilization has collapsed. Led by Captain Tom Chandler (Eric Dane), the sailors become one of the few remaining organized military forces and embark on a dangerous mission to locate a cure while avoiding rival factions determined to seize control.

Watch "The Last Ship" seasons 1-5 on Netflix now

‘Avatar: The Last Airbender’

“Avatar: The Last Airbender” is back with season 2 on Netflix. Following a massive renewal after its debut, the live-action adaptation steps completely out of the introductory world-building and dives headfirst into the sprawling and politically fractured Earth Kingdom. Veteran producers Christine Boylan and Jabbar Raisani stepped up as the new co-showrunners to guide the franchise through its most mature chapter yet. Season 2 is a faster, darker, and vastly more sophisticated block of TV than its predecessor.

After successfully defending the Northern Water Tribe, Aang (Gordon Cormier), Katara (Kiawentiio) and Sokka (Ian Ousley) continue their journey into the Earth Kingdom in search of the elusive Earth King, hoping to secure his support against Fire Lord Ozai (Daniel Dae Kim). Along the way, Aang must master earthbending and recruits the gifted young prodigy Toph Beifong (Miya Cech) as his new teacher. Their travels lead them to the sprawling city of Ba Sing Se, where they uncover a dangerous secret operating beneath the city’s peaceful façade.

‘The American Experiment’

Released just in time to mark the 250th anniversary of the United States, “The American Experiment” looks back at the founding of the U.S. and explores the question of whether a new system of self-governance could truly survive over time. It’s executive produced by Hollywood icon Tom Hanks and directed by acclaimed documentary filmmaker Brian Knappenberger. If you’re a history buff or want to understand how the past still shapes politics today, this five-part summer release is essential viewing.

This new doc revisits the founding of the United States as it approaches the country’s 250th anniversary. It follows the events leading up to the American Revolution, the War of Independence, and the drafting of the Constitution through to the early formation of the federal government. The series brings together historians and commentators from across the spectrum, alongside reenactments and archival material, to reconstruct key moments in the nation’s creation.

Hulu is a great streaming service for building your next weekend movie marathon. It regularly adds originals and classics to its library. Plus, because it's owned by Disney, it's the streaming home for new releases from several Disney-owned studios. It even has deals with some other studios to get in new releases before any other service, whether they're produced by Disney or not.

This weekend, I have three movies recently added to Hulu that are a must-watch. First up is the all-time classic, "Gladiator," which I could re-watch any given weekend. Then, this Saturday, Hulu is adding "The Creator," which is a visually stunning film, even if the story doesn't always work. Finally, you'll want to check out "Between the Temples," a highly-rated comedy-drama that's arriving on Hulu this Sunday.

Here are the three new to Hulu movies you need to stream this weekend. For more recommendations, check out the full list of everything new to Hulu in June 2026.

'Americana' (2025)

Genre: Crime thriller

What's it about? "Americana" stars Sydney Sweeney and Paul Walter Hauser as Penny and Lefty. These two attempt to snag a rare Native American ghost shirt, worth a lot on the black market. But they're not the only ones; Ghost Eye (Zahn McClarnon), the leader of a Native American group, wants the shirt as well.

Why you need to watch it: This movie isn't flawless, but if you like a gritty crime thriller, it's worth a watch for the performances. Halsey and McClarnon are particularly good, and "Americana" manages to nail its neo-Western vibes, even if the end result is slightly uneven.

Watch "Americana" on Hulu starting June 26

'Queens of the Dead' (2025)

Genre: Zombie comedy

What's it about? What happens when a zombie apocalypse breaks out in New York and invades a warehouse party filled with drag queens, clubgoers and more in Brooklyn? "Queens of the Dead" happens.

Why you need to watch it: Billed as a comedy, you might be able to handle "Queens of the Dead" even if you don't typically dabble in horror movies. Just know that it's still a zombie movie, and that means guns, guts and gore are still to be expected.

Watch "Queens of the Dead" on Hulu starting June 26

'The Creator' (2023)

Genre: Sci-fi action

What's it about? "The Creator" is set in a world where A.I. detonated a nuclear warhead in Los Angeles, causing devastation and sparking a war. 15 years later, the U.S. is still at war with New Asia over the fate of machines. But they're hoping for a breakthrough when they send special forces Sgt. Joshua Taylor (John David Washington) to take down "Nirmata," an A.I. expert who is key to the New Asian resistance.

Why you should watch it: This movie looks stunning. The story takes some twists and turns, and is frankly a bit dense when it could stand to be superficial, but it's worth checking out for the visuals alone. Thankfully, it has some must-watch action sequences as well.

"The Bear" has been one of the most consistent small screen offerings throughout the 2020s, with a new season dropping every summer and delivering high quality drama time and time again.

Here's how to watch "The Bear" season 5 from anywhere with a VPN and how to stream it from anywhere in the world, and potentially for FREE.

Season 5 of "The Bear" is set to pick up right where the last episode of season 4 left off, with Carmy waking up after selling his stake in the restaurant and deciding he's had enough of the food industry altogether. Can Sydney, Richie, Natalie and the rest of the crew regroup and achieve that elusive Michelin star they've been seeking?

There's more money troubles on the horizon, of course, and it's not inconceivable that the restaurant could be sold before the end of the show. That's not even to mention the crazy storm that's flooded the place. Given how much we love the team in "The Bear", hopefully they can work something out and get Carmy back on board quick.

"The Bear" is one of the biggest and best new shows to watch in June, and there are loads of options to catch the latest episodes.

So, pull up a chair and tuck in, this is how you can stream "The Bear" season 5 from anywhere in the world, including details of a couple of free routes to view.

Can you watch 'The Bear' season 5 for free?

There are a couple of options to watch "The Bear" season 5 for free.

All eight episodes of the new season will be added to Hulu on Friday, June 26. You could sign up for a free trial to Hulu and binge all the episodes before it expires.

Alternatively, you could sign up to a YouTube TV free trial and catch episodes weekly on FX. Once your trial expires, though, you'll have to pay to keep viewing.

Paramount+ is a great streaming service for building your next movie marathon. It adds dozens of movies to the platform each month; it added 93 new movies and shows in June alone. Many of these are beloved classics or more modern hits, but a few times a month, you even get brand-new movies from Paramount Skydance studios.

This week, I'm sticking with some more modern masterpieces. At the top of my list is "The Big Short," which is a movie I rewatch more than most others. Then, there's "The Manchurian Candidate," a 2004 remake of the 1962 political thriller classic, starring Denzel Washington. Finally, I'm keeping things in the thriller genre with "Witness," an incredible crime thriller starring Harrison Ford.

Here are the three new to Paramount+ movies that you need to be streaming this weekend. If you need more recommendations, check out our full guide to everything new on Paramount+ in June 2026.

'The Big Short' (2015)

Genre: Biographical comedy-drama

What's it about? Set around unpacking the causes of the 2008 financial crisis, "The Big Short" centers on three main groups, starting with Dr. Michael Burry (Christian Bale), who is first among the trio to short the housing market. Through Jared Vennett (Ryan Gosling), this news makes it to Mark Baum (Steve Carell) and his team, who then also start to short the mortgage sector. Finally, there's a duo of young investment bankers mentored by Ben Rickert (Brad Pitt), who also learn of the shorts and decide to join the fray. They all walk away rich while the U.S. economy collapses.

Why you should watch it: "The Big Short" is basically three incredible ensemble performances rolled into a single movie, and I love rewatching it, especially when I'm having writer's block. You probably won't watch it for that reason, but you definitely should still watch it.

Watch "The Big Short" on Paramount+ now

'The Manchurian Candidate' (2004)

Genre: Neo-noir political thriller

What's it about? "The Manchurian Candidate" stars Denzel Washington as Maj. Bennett Marco. He commanded a unit in the Persian Gulf War that included Sgt. First Class Raymond Shaw (Liev Schreiber) and both of them were captured during a mission, but later escaped. Since the war, Shaw has gone on to become a member of Congress and is now on track to be the next Vice President of the U.S., but Marco starts to uncover a conspiracy regarding their time in Kuwait that could put Shaw's candidacy in jeopardy.

Why you should watch it: While the 1962 original is probably the better movie, this 2004 remake is still worth checking out. Besides Denzel and Schreiber, the cast list also includes Meryl Streep, Jon Voight, Jeffrey Wright and a few other familiar faces. It's worth watching for some of their performances alone.

'Witness' (1985)

Genre: Neo-noir crime thriller

What's it about? "Witness" stars Harrison Ford as Det. Cpt. John Book, a member of the Philadelphia Police Department. He's been tasked with protecting Samuel, a young Amish boy who witnessed the murder of an undercover cop, and it turns out the perpetrator is another officer. To keep him safe, Harrison returns with Samuel to Amish country, and the members of the community are less than thrilled to have an outsider among them.

Why you should watch it: This crime thriller was a hit with critics and at the box office. It scored eight Oscar nominations, including one for Ford's performance. It's a must-watch now that you can stream it on Paramount+.

Scottie Scheffler and Matt Fitzpatrick are off to a blazing start at the Travelers Championship, but they're still looking up at Eric Cole. He's yet to win on the PGA Tour, but at 6-under he holds the outright lead heading into Round 2. The 38-year-old lost a playoff to Russell Henley at the Charles Schwab Challenge before making the top 10 of the Memorial Tournament.

You can watch Travelers Championship 2026 live streams from anywhere with a VPN.

Eight of the world's top 10 golfers, including Cameron Young and newly-crowned two-time U.S. Open champion Wyndham Clark, have made the short trip to TPC River Highlands for the Travelers Championship, the eighth and final Signature Event of the season.

It isn't just the proximity between Long Island and Cromwell that's tempted them in. The 2026 Travelers Championship is worth $20 million — $3.6 million of which is earmarked for the winner. And numerous players will fancy their chances of landing that top prize.

Take Scheffler, who won the 2024 edition of the tournament in a playoff as part of a run of three straight top-six finishes at TPC River Highlands. Other past winners in contention this weekend include Xander Schauffele (2022), Jordan Spieth (2017) and reigning champion Keegan Bradley, who's topped the charts at two of the past three editions of the event.

Tommy Fleetwood could and really should have triumphed here 12 months ago, having led by three strokes at the start of play on Sunday. However, he made three bogeys in the first four holes of his final round, and lost a further two strokes over his final three holes.

Below is a complete guide on where to watch 2026 Travelers Championship live streams, together with Round 2 tee times, U.S. broadcast schedules and international TV channels.

Netflix clearly knows that many of its subscribers love a good thriller movie. The genre often dominates Netflix’s top 10 most-watched list, and the big red streaming service regularly adds additional thriller movies to its library to keep subscribers on the edge of their seats.

This week is no exception, with the first wave of July content landing, there are thrillers aplenty to add to your watchlist. From an ambitious drama set across two periods, to an acclaimed flick from director David Fincher, which I’d label a real modern masterpiece. There’s also an overlooked crime thriller that explores the opioid crisis from multiple perspectives.

If you’re craving some new to Netflix thrillers this week, you’ve come to the right place. I’ve combed through the latest arrivals and picked out a handful that you won’t want to miss.

3 new to Netflix thrillers to watch this week

‘In the Hand of Dante’ (2026)

“In the Hand of Dante” is an ambitious dramatic thriller that tells an epic story, set across two time periods over a chunky 153-minute runtime. At its center is Oscar Isaac, who plays two roles: a New York author in the modern day and the famed Italian poet Dante Alighieri in the 14th century. Adding yet another wrinkle to the tapestry, the NYC scenes are presented in stark black-and-white, while the historical sequences are in full color.

Based on the novel by Nick Tosches, Isaac plays a fictional version of Tosches himself, who is recruited by the New York City mob to verify that a copy of Dante’s “The Divine Comedy” was written in the poet’s own hand, making it priceless. Interspersed with this crime odyssey are 14th-century sequences focused on Dante’s life. The movie also stars Gal Gadot, Gerard Butler, John Malkovich, Martin Scorsese, Al Pacino and Jason Momoa.

'Gone Girl' (2014)

“Gone Girl” isn’t just one of the best mystery thrillers of the 2010s but one of the genre’s very best, period. Based on Gillian Flynn’s best-selling novel and directed by David Fincher, who is something of a thriller mastermind, having also helmed ‘90s classics “Seven” and “Fight Club,” it’s gripping from the start with a real sense of momentum and a mid-movie twist that will leave your jaw on the floor. “Gone Girl” is the modern thriller others must measure up to, and one of my favorite movies of the 21st century.

On the day of their fifth wedding anniversary, Nick Dunne (Ben Affleck) returns home to find that his wife, Amy (Rosamund Pike), is missing. What follows is a police investigation to find Amy, which quickly becomes national news. But while the media is initially sympathetic to Nick’s plight, as Amy’s absence continues without a culprit identified, the lens shifts to Nick, and he becomes the prime suspect. Did Nick kill "Amazing" Amy?

‘Crisis’ (2021)

“Crisis” was a movie that came and went upon release, making little impression on critics or audiences. That’s a tad surprising when you consider its stacked cast list with Gary Oldman, Evangeline Lilly, Greg Kinnear, Michelle Rodriguez, Luke Evans and Lily-Rose Depp. It also features Armie Hammer, though the inclusion of the controversial actor may not have helped its marketability. Anyway, with this crime thriller flick hitting Netflix at the start of July, perhaps it’ll find the wider viewership that it didn’t manage to score in theaters half a decade ago.

Based around the Fentanyl crisis, it explores multiple perspectives, including the leader of a criminal operation, a mother battling addiction while also hunting for answers about her missing son, a researcher working for a pharmaceutical company launching a new drug, and more POVs. “Crisis” uses the opioid epidemic as the backdrop to explore several complex characters. Their stories eventually collide in unexpected ways.

In the wake of critical and commercial hits like “Top Gun: Maverick,” “Hit Man,” "Anybody but You," and “Twisters,” Glen Powell appeared on a one-stop route to superstardom. But in recent months, his coronation as a certified A-lister has hit something of a snag following the largely lukewarm response to Edgar Wright’s “The Running Man” and the very tepid box office returns of his new thriller movie, “How to Make Killing.”

This movie, inspired by a 1949 British film, "Kind Hearts and Coronets,” hit the big screen back in March, where it met with a shrug of the shoulders (It grossed a weak $21 million against a $15 million budget). But in today’s movie landscape, a film’s streaming debut represents a second chance to make an impression, and with “How to Make a Killing” having just been added to HBO Max, Powell’s latest movie could earn its own redemption.

As somebody who did catch this one when it was in theaters, I’m here to give you the lowdown on this new thriller that’s infused with plenty of dark humor. Just be warned, while Powell's presence is as magnetic as ever, the movie that houses his performance is more of a mixed bag.

What is ‘How to Make a Killing’ about?

Opening with Becket Redfellow (Glen Powell) on death row, “How to Make a Killing” flashes back to explain how this former suit shop worker ended up in prison for murder.

Raised by a single mother, Becket is actually the illegitimate grandson of a wealthy tycoon (Ed Harris). His mom was disowned by her family after becoming pregnant in her teenage years, and on her deathbed, she told Becket that he should fight for the inheritance he “deserves.”

Due to a legal loophole, Becket stands to inherit his grandfather’s huge estate, but only if he’s the last remaining heir to the Redfellow fortune. To ensure the money comes his way, Becket sets about murdering his estranged relative and staging each death as an unfortunate accident.

Glen Powell is the reason to watch ‘How to Make a Killing’ on HBO Max

The reason to watch this thriller is in big letters on the poster: Glen Powell. The actor is the livewire that keeps this thriller engaging, and his performance is similar to the fantastic effort he delivered in 2023’s “Hit Man.” Becket is all charm and wide smiles, while he meticulously schemes to murder his arrogant and largely unlikeable relatives. His methods are obviously immoral, but you can’t help but root for Becket’s success.

Powell is clearly aware of what kind of movies he’s starring in and manages to bridge the movie’s mixed bag of tones, which leaps between satirical swipes at society’s elite and almost a screwball comedy, as Becket, for all his best efforts, is by no means a seasoned professional killer. I have a lot of problems with this movie, but at least Glen Powell is not one of them.

It’s when you look beyond Powell’s charismatic performance that “How to Make a Killing” starts to stumble. Margaret Qualley appears in a supporting role as Becket’s childhood friend, who gets entangled in the scheme and is more cunning than she first appears. This character, named Julia, is poorly written and sketched out, and is central to many of the narrative issues.

Maybe “How to Make a Killing” was the victim of poor release timing, hitting cinemas in the wake of last year’s “No Other Choice,” which sees a desperate man resort to murdering his competition for a prestigious job. Park Chan-wook’s comedy-thriller handles similar material with infinitely more skill and weaves its social commentary within its compelling plot.

When “How to Make a Killing” was in theaters, it wasn’t a movie I recommended anybody rush out to see (nor fork over movie theater ticket prices), but now that it’s on streaming, the barrier to entry has dropped considerably. Powell's performance just about makes a viewing worthwhile, even if his efforts can only go so far in exonerating the thriller’s other issues.

For more fresh additions to HBO Max this month, here’s a full guide to everything new added to the streaming service in June 2026.

This season, Minogue has a few tricks up her sleeve to really put the girls' chemistry to the test, while even by episode two, three new girls are shipped into the masseria to mix things up. There'll be love, tears, drama, and lots of kissing, so buckle up for cupid to cause some chaos.

Ready for more Kiss-Offs? If so, here's how to watch "I Kissed A Girl" season 2 online and from anywhere including the U.S. and Australia.

Not all VPNs works for this – but NordVPN (try risk-free) does (we use it daily).

Using a VPN is incredibly simple.

1. Install the VPN of your choice. Try NordVPN.

2. Choose the location you wish to connect to in the VPN app. For instance, if you're away from the U.K. and want to view a U.K. service, you'd select U.K. from the list.

Can you watch 'I Kissed A Girl' season 2 in the U.S. and Canada?

"I Kissed A Girl" season 2 is is not scheduled to air in the U.S. or Canada just yet. But, given Hulu has the rights to the first season, so we would expect the new episodes to arrive there... eventually.

Can you watch 'I Kissed A Girl' season 2 in Australia?

You'll face a similar dilemma in Australia, with no linear TV release or streaming service drop for "I Kissed A Girl" season 2 at the moment.

However, Network 10 was the free-to-air home of the first season, so we anticipate the second season will wind up there soon.

Don't forget, we use NordVPN to watch our usual streaming services from anywhere. Not all VPNs work for this but Nord is excellent for streaming while on the go.

Netflix’s top 10 is a quick way to figure out what’s popular when you’re stuck for something to watch, but being high on the list doesn’t automatically mean a show is actually good. Every week, I go through the most-watched titles on the platform and highlight the series that are genuinely worth your time, cutting through the noise to separate the standouts from the ones lacking quality.

The trending list this week is packed with intense thrills and plenty of juicy drama. At No. 1 right now is Harlan Coben’s latest series, “I Will Find You,” an easy binge for anyone after a gripping watch. If you’re not sure what to watch next, I’ve selected three standout titles from Netflix’s top 10 that are worth adding to your watchlist, plus the full ranking (at the time of writing).

Note: This list is based on the Netflix U.S. top 10 shows as of Tuesday, June 23, 2026.

Best shows in the Netflix top 10

‘I Will Find You’

Harlan Coben is one of Netflix’s most reliably popular creators. Since his deal with Netflix started in 2018, the platform has adapted multiple novels into limited series, and several of them have become global hits in the streamer’s top 10 lists. The latest adaptation to reach the No. 1 spot is “I Will Find You,” structured as a fast-paced, ticking-clock conspiracy thriller. While it leans on familiar thriller tropes and relies on a series of convenient escapes, this series is clearly an engaging streaming hit packed with twists to keep you invested.

“I Will Find You” follows David Burroughs (Sam Worthington), a man serving a life sentence for the murder of his young son. His life suddenly changes when he receives evidence suggesting his son may still be alive. Determined to uncover the truth, David escapes from prison and begins a relentless search. The closer he gets to answers, the more he uncovers shocking revelations that challenge everything he believed about his past, the original investigation, and those closest to him, while racing to reunite with his child before it’s too late.

Stream "I Will Find You" on Netflix

‘Oasis’

“Oasis” is a Spanish mystery thriller series set in an ultra-luxurious, exclusive resort where wealthy families spend their summer holidays in apparent paradise. Styled as a highly addictive, sun-drenched “nightmare vacation” drama, the series has immediately drawn heavy comparisons to a YA-focused iteration of HBO’s hit “The White Lotus.” This already seems like a highly bingeable piece of summer escapism perfect for viewers who love their teenage high-society drama.

Dani (Tomy Aguilera) is a newcomer thrust into a world of hyper-privileged teenagers, including his scheming step-sister Sofía (Ada Molina) and the wealthy Maca (Berta Castañé). When a local worker named Celia (Victoria Kantch) mysteriously vanishes, the resort is plunged into a police lockdown. To uncover the truth, Dani teams up with Celia's fierce best friend, Helena (Ana Garcés), and they begin uncovering secrets hidden beneath the resort’s perfect surface.

Stream "Oasis" on Netflix

‘The Four Seasons’

Lastly we have the second season of a popular comedy-drama. “The Four Seasons” adapts the structural conceit of Alan Alda’s classic 1981 film, which revolves around a simple hook: it follows a tightly knit circle of well-off, middle-aged friends exclusively during their four seasonal vacation getaways over the course of a year. It’s perfect for those wanting adult-centered TV that is equal parts heartbreaking and hysterically funny, and it also feels fitting now that we’re in summer.

Season 2 of “The Four Seasons” picks up after Nick’s (Steve Carell) death, with the group continuing their tradition of seasonal trips while adjusting to major changes in their lives. Jack (Will Forte) struggles to maintain normal routines without Nick, while Kate (Tina Fey) tries to keep the friendships from drifting apart. Danny (Colman Domingo) and Claude (Marco Calvani) begin building a life together in Claude’s hometown in Italy. Anne (Kerri Kenney-Silver) and Ginny (Erika Henningsen) are forced to share responsibility for Nick’s baby, Gino, during a series of trips.

• 3 must-watch Netflix movies leaving in June 2026

It’s set to be a busy week for new movies across the most popular streaming services. Several platforms, including Netflix, HBO Max, and Disney+, will have new films for subscribers to watch.

Netflix has a new comedy movie that pairs John Cena and Eric André as siblings; HBO Max has a horror described as “the scariest movie you’ll ever hear,” and the latest installment in the blockbuster “Avatar” franchise heads to Disney+. If all that wasn’t enough, there’s also a trio of worthwhile options on premium streaming, including a fantastic thriller movie that ranks in my top 10 movies of 2026 (and I’ve seen 50+ new films this year).

To save you the time of scrolling through streaming libraries to find out what’s new and worthwhile, I’ve done the hard work for you and collected together the most noteworthy new movies down below. Plus, check out our guide to all the top new TV shows streaming this week.

‘Tuner’ (PVOD)

"Tuner" is one of my favorite thriller movies of 2026 so far, and nowhere near enough people caught it in theaters. Even with its strong 94% score on Rotten Tomatoes, viewers did not turn out for this tense watch starring Leo Woodall and Dustin Hoffman. That’s why I’m hoping its arrival on premium streaming will signal a fresh wave of attention, because it richly deserves a wider viewership. It’s gripping and builds to an excellent finale.

Woodall plays Niki White, an apprentice to renowned New York City piano tuner Harry Horowitz (Hoffman). Suffering from a sensitivity to sound that he describes as an “allergy to loud noises,” he was once a virtuoso but no longer plays. In need of money, he discovers an aptitude for cracking safes and falls in with a criminal gang. At the same time, he meets and starts dating a music student, Ruthie (Havana Rose Liu). But as the stakes get higher, Niki’s two lives are thrown together, and he is forced to face the music.

Watch on Prime Video (buy/rent) starting June 23

‘Power Ballad’ (PVOD)

Director John Carney is known for his musical comedies like “Once,” “Sing Street,” and “Begin Again,” and his latest project, “Power Ballad,” falls within the same genre. After all, if you’re good at something, why do anything else? Starring Paul Rudd and Nick Jonas, “Power Ballad” is a generally charming watch, even if it’s not up to the quality of Carney’s best work. Plus, it centers on a stolen song, but the tune in question is pretty terrible.

Rick (Rudd) is the lead singer of a wedding band in Ireland. Once hoping to make it as a serious musician, he gave up his dreams to raise his daughter. When he meets former boy band member Danny (Jonas) at a wedding, the two spend the evening jamming. Weeks later, Rick is stunned when Danny records and takes credit for one of Rick’s original songs, and the track becomes a global hit. Determined to be recognised for his work, Rick sets off to confront Danny, but by doing so risks everything he cares about.

‘Billie Eilish - Hit Me Hard and Soft: The Tour’ (PVOD)

Billie Eilish’s biggest concert movie to date was filmed during her globe-spanning Hit Me Hard and Soft Tour, in support of the album of the same name. Shot during Eilish’s sold-out run at Manchester’s Co-op Live arena, this movie gives you the best seat in the house as the American singer rattles through her earworm hits, including “Happier Than Ever, “Birds of a Feather” and “Bad Guy.” It’s a must-watch for dedicated Billie Eilish fans.

Most interesting about this concert film is that Eilish co-directs alongside James Cameron, yes, that James Cameron. On the big screen, it was a 3D event, and while the home streaming release can’t replicate the use of the technology (remember when 3D TVs were a thing?), It’s a very slick production overall. It’s not often you get to enjoy a concert movie starring one of music’s biggest names and directed by a Hollywood legend.

‘Avatar: Fire and Ash’ (Disney+)

Speaking of James Cameron, the latest installment in his box office-conquering “Avatar” franchise heads to Disney+. While this third entry in the sci-fi series did still gross an eye-watering sum, its total was significantly down on its predecessor, so I’m assuming a lot of viewers were waiting to catch “Fire and Ash” on streaming. If you enjoyed the previous two “Avatar” movies, it’s hard to see this one as disappointing, as it offers all the same jaw-dropping visuals and incredible world-building, even if its narrative chops are thin.

In “Avatar: Fire and Ash,” former human turned Na’vi, Jake Sully (Sam Worthington), must lead his family into uncharted territory after being targeted by a new fire-obsessed clan, alongside contending with an old enemy, Colonel Miles Quaritch (Stephen Lang). The plot is serviceable, though it recycles many beats from “The Way of Water.” But really, who is watching “Avatar” for the plot? This franchise has always been about the visuals, and they’re on point. Still, by the end of its chunky 200-minute runtime, the series does feel like it's starting to run out of gas.

‘In the Hand of Dante’ (Netflix)

“In the Hand of Dante” is one of the week’s more interesting offerings. It’s a drama that packs both flashbacks to a period setting and a modern-day thriller-style storyline that is quite violent. Plus, it offers not one, but two, roles for the typically excellent Oscar Isaac. It’s based on Nick Tosches novel of the same name and also stars Gal Gadot, Gerard Butler, John Malkovich, Martin Scorsese, Al Pacino and Jason Momoa. That’s quite the cast list.

In a meta twist, Tosches is a character in the movie, played by Isaac. He’s an author living in New York, recruited by the mafia to confirm the authenticity and steal the Italian poet Dante Alighieri's The Divine Comedy, written in the poet's own hand. This violent modern-day story is intertwined with scenes set in the 14th century. In these, Isaac plays the poet Dante. The NYC portion is presented in black and white, with the historical sequences filmed in full color.

‘Little Brother’ (Netflix)

“Little Brother” is certainly not the first comedy flick to mine humor from the idea of two mismatched siblings. Heck, Hollywood has been recycling this trope for decades. So, I’m confident in saying this new Netflix comedy isn’t going to win many points for originality, but if it can make subscribers laugh, then it’ll have served its primary purpose. With John Cena and Eric André in the lead roles, it may well achieve that important goal.

Cena plays a successful real estate agent who lives an orderly life. This well-maintained lifestyle is thrown into chaos when his eccentric “little brother” (André) appears on the scene and proves to be a walking disaster magnet. The trailer suggests this movie will be heavy on slapstick comedy with Cena playing the straight man and André the unpredictable wild card.

‘Undertone’ (HBO Max)

“Undertone” is a fairly pedestrian horror. Don’t go in expecting a memorable experience akin to current genre favorites “Obsession” and “Backrooms.” However, if you set your expectations accordingly, you might find this supernatural horror decently chilling. Its hook is that it’s built around sound, invoking fear in its viewers with spooky noises. In fact, only two members of the cast appear on screen, with the rest only in voice.

Evy (Nina Kiri) is the host of a popular horror podcast, recording the latest episode from her home, where she also cares for her ailing mother (Michèle Duquet). When Evy and her co-host (Adam DiMarco) are sent a series of audio recordings that chronicle a couple’s paranormal experience, the skeptical Evy is drawn into a terrifying evening of sinister specters. As the night progresses, she’s forced to consider that some ghosts might be real.

• 5 top new shows to stream this week
• Netflix top 10 movies — here’s the 3 worth watching right now
• The best streaming services to subscribe to right now

HBO Max is running a limited-time discount on annual subscriptions, coming just as the “House of the Dragon” season 3 premiere episode drops, and days before Prime Day arrives. In fact, this new streaming deal is so good that I doubt Amazon’s annual savings extravaganza will beat it.

From now until July 15, new and returning HBO Max subscribers can save 40% on a yearly plan. This deal is available on all three tiers: Basic With Ads, Standard, and Premium. And unlike many streaming deals (such as Paramount+’s summer savings), you get a discounted year of access rather than merely a couple of months.

With the discount applied, you can get HBO Max’s cheapest tier for $78 (was $109); that’s $38 off. Meanwhile, the Standard tier is on sale for $132 (was $184), and the Premium tier is $164, down from its regular price of $229 per year — which is a very sizeable $65 discount.

You do have to pay for the full year upfront, but these HBO Max discounts offer big savings. Particularly on the Premium tier, now $13 per month, a very significant drop from its standard $22 monthly cost. Just remember you have until July 15 to claim the deal, and there's no need for a coupon code. Follow the links above, and it's automatically applied at sign-up.

HBO Max has ranked at the top of our best streaming services guide for years, and for good reason. It offers one of the best libraries out there, with phenomenal TV shows courtesy of HBO (such as "Heated Rivalry, "Euphoria," and “Industry”), and plenty of blockbuster movies from Warner Bros. Pictures (including 2026 Oscar winners like “One Battle After Another” and “Sinners”).

However, the one show dominating HBO Max at present is, of course, the return of “Game of Thrones” spin-off “House of the Dragon,” which just dropped the premiere episode of its third season on Sunday (June 21). With this deal, you can catch up now or watch along as the fantasy drama unfolds in a season that is promising to go big on dragon-fueled spectacle.

HBO Max is a streaming service I’ve strongly recommended numerous times at its regular price, so being able to sign up for a yearly plan at such a large discount is definitely one of the best streaming deals I’ve spotted so far this summer. If you’re a new/returning subscriber, make sure you sign up and enjoy a full year of HBO at a reduced price.

We're tracking all the best Prime Day deals

Streaming prices continue to creep upward across most major platforms, making it harder than ever to find real value for money. With monthly costs adding up quickly, genuinely good streaming deals have become increasingly rare, so when one does appear, it’s worth paying attention to.

Right now, there is a standout offer worth jumping on immediately. Until June 25, you can get Paramount+ for just $0.99 per month for two months, making it one of the best streaming discounts currently available. The deal applies to both Essential and Premium tiers and could save you up to $13 per month. But once the deadline passes, it’s gone.

After the initial two-month promotional period ends, your subscription will automatically renew at the standard monthly rate unless you cancel beforehand. If you decide it’s not for you, you can cancel at any time before the renewal date to avoid being charged, and you’ll still retain access until the end of the current billing period. Alternatively, if you’re enjoying the service, you can simply let it roll on and continue your subscription.

Paramount+ is definitely one of the stronger streaming services. It has titles like “Landman,” “Tulsa King,” and the second season of “The Agency” driving much of its current buzz among subscribers. The platform also continues to expand the “Yellowstone” universe with spin-offs like “Dutton Ranch.” Looking ahead into 2026, upcoming releases include new seasons of “Star Trek: Strange New Worlds,” “Lioness,” and “Dexter: Resurrection.”

How to get the Paramount+ deal

To get the Paramount+ deal, head to the official Paramount+ website and choose either the Essential or Premium plan when clicking “Get Started.” The promotional price of $0.99 per month for two months will be applied automatically at checkout for eligible new or returning subscribers.

Once you’ve completed sign-up, your discounted rate starts immediately, and you’ll enjoy full access to the platform throughout the offer period.

After two months, your subscription will auto-renew at the full price of your selected plan unless you choose to cancel beforehand. And just a reminder that this limited-time Paramount+ offer ends on June 25, so once the promotion window closes, standard pricing will automatically apply.

This is a genuinely strong streaming offer and one of the better discounts available right now. With so many Prime Day deals landing this week, it could easily outperform many competing deals on value alone. If Paramount+ is even slightly on your radar, it’s worth taking advantage while the price is this low!

If you're looking to find what new movies and shows Netflix is adding this week, I've got you covered. The streaming service is adding a mere 11 new movies and shows this week, but there are a few titles worth adding to your watchlist.

Top of the list is clearly "Little Brother," a Netflix original comedy movie starring John Cena and Eric André. For fantasy fans, "Avatar: The Last Airbender" season 2 is back for another round of adapting the beloved Nickelodeon cartoon.

That's probably the end of the top tier, but "In the Hand of Dante" is a flawed movie with an impressive cast. It stars Oscar Isaac, Gal Gadot, Gerard Butler, John Malkovich, Marin Scorsese, Al Pacino and Jason Momoa. But if you enjoy a good documentary, you might prefer watching "The American Experiment," a five-part docuseries about the 250-year history of the U.S. For those who just need a laugh, make sure to watch "Ryan Hamilton: This Just Hit Me."

Those aren't the only movies, shows and live events to add to your watchlist this week, though. Here's the full schedule of everything new on Netflix over the next seven days, along with my top picks for what you need to stream. Don't forget to check out everything new on Netflix in June 2026 for even more movies and shows to check out.

New on Netflix this week: Top picks

'Little Brother'

Genre: Comedy movie

What it's about: In "Little Brother," John Cena is Rudd, a famous real estate agent. His perfect life is turned upside-down, though, when a man claiming to be his brother calls him from the hospital. This man, Marcus (Eric André), was Rudd's little brother in a school "Big brother-little brother" program, and is not related to Rudd in any way. But that doesn't stop Rudd from still taking Marcus in, and chaos ensues.

Why you should watch it: This movie definitely seems to lean into André's absurd brand of comedy, at least, based on the trailer. If you like a wacky comedy with two hilarious leads, this movie should have no problem making you laugh.

Watch "Little Brother" on Netflix starting June 26

'Avatar: The Last Airbender' season 2

Genre: Fantasy action-adventure series

What it's about: Avatar Aang (Gordon Cormier) is the last member of the Air Nomads. Alongside his companions, Katara (Kiawentiio), and Sokka (Ian Ousley), he's on a crash course with the villainous Fire Lord Ozai (Daniel Dae Kim). This season, the trio is headed to the Earth Kingdom to convince its King to aid in their battle against Ozai's ferocious fire benders.

Why you should watch it: Fans of the original Nickelodeon series, be warned: I can't promise that Netflix's live-action version of "Avatar: The Last Airbender" is better than the animated series. But that doesn't mean you won't still like it. The show makes some interesting changes due to the restrictions of being live-action instead of animated.

'In the Hand of Dante'

Genre: Drama movie

What it's about: Nick Tosches (Oscar Isaac) is an author recruited by a mafia boss to steal Dante Alighieri's "The Divine Comedy." The original one. From the 14th century. Needless to say, things do not go smoothly.

Why you should watch it: This movie doesn't take place solely in the 21st century; "In the Hand of Dante" also goes back to Dante's Italy, with many actors portraying people in both periods. Critics didn't love this movie when it debuted at the Venice International Film Festival last year, but with a cast that includes Isaac, John Malkovich and Al Pacino, it's worth giving a shot if you have time.

Watch "In the Hand of Dante" on Netflix starting June 24

'The American Experiment'

Genre: Docuseries

What it's about: "The American Experiment" is a five-part docuseries about the 250-year history of the U.S. It's centered around a fundamental question: "Can a people govern themselves?" To answer the question, director Brian Knappenberger brings together a roster of politicians and academics, including a pair of U.S. Vice Presidents.

Why you should watch it: I'm not convinced that this docuseries won't devolve into ideological debate, but I'm certainly intrigued about a documentary that got both Mike Pence and Kamala Harris on board. Plus, Tom Hanks is one of the executive producers, so I have some faith it will be worth a watch.

Watch "The American Experiment" on Netflix starting June 24

'Ryan Hamilton: This Just Hit Me'

Genre: Stand-up comedy special

What it's about: Ryan Hamilton is a stand-up from small-town Idaho who's made it to the big stage. In "This Just Hit Me," the folksy comedian delivers a new hour-long special for Netflix that dives into big-city living, going in a hot-air balloon and what it's like to go to Disney World by yourself.

Why you should watch it: This is Hamilton's second stand-up special, but it's been nearly a decade since "Happy Face" arrived on Netflix. He's had plenty of time to hone his craft, and you won't want to miss it.

‘House of the Dragon’ is back! For fans of political chicanery, dragon-based warfare and lots (and lots) of bloodshed, "House of the Dragon" season 3 will no doubt be jam-packed with all three. Below is all the information you need to watch “House of the Dragon" season 3 online from anywhere with a VPN.

After a season 2 finale that some viewers (including those of this parish) thought of as a bit of a bait and switch, the latest run of the "Game of Thrones" prequel is bringing total war as the Greens and Blacks try to reinforce their dominance of the Valyrian Freehold and Rhaenyra Targaryen attempts to clinch power in the face of ever spiralling odds.

HBO played its cards close to its chest in terms of plotlines in the lead-up, but some cast members have given a flavor of what to expect. Matt Smith (Daemon Targaryen) described season 3 as "a big bloodbath", while Emma D’Arcy (Rhaenyra) told fans to expect "an increased ambition to the set pieces, but also to the narrative drama". Indeed, showrunner Ryan Condal has already teased a 'conceptual episode' at some point during the eight-episode run.

And episode 1 was no disappointment — as you can discover in our spoiler-filled review that declared: "it delivered epic battles on dragonback and brought back the expectation that anyone and everyone can die in Westeros". It beautifully set up the remainder of the season, as the fallout plays out in full.

Read on to discover how to watch "House of the Dragon" season 3 online and from anywhere.

"The Agency" basically shows us what a world with Michael Fassbender as James Bond would be like, but it's even better because we get to watch him over 10 episodes of TV rather than waiting around for a movie.

If you're ready to jump in for more covert CIA missions, here's how to watch "The Agency" season 2 online from anywhere in the world using a VPN.

For years, fans of spy movies were crying out for Fassbender to take on the role of 007, but thanks to "The Agency" we don't need to worry about that anymore. This gritty, explosive series has all the action you'd expect from Bond, while also having more time and space to flesh out the fascinating character Fassbender takes on.

Season 2 of the hit show will see Bosko (Richard Gere) worrying about leaks within the agency, making ruthless decisions, and dealing with some intense, quickfire tactical changes as operations get messy. Meanwhile, Martian (Fassbender) is the one who has to hold everything together as the top agent in the field, but does he have what it takes to get the job done?

"The Agency" season 2 will deliver ten brand new episodes in one fell swoop for you to binge to your heart's content. So, here’s our guide on how to watch "The Agency" season 2 online from anywhere in the world.

How to watch 'The Agency' season 2 from anywhere

If you’re traveling and find that your usual streaming apps stop working outside your home region, a VPN (virtual private network) can help. It lets your device connect via a secure server back home, so you can use your existing subscriptions as normal.

Tom’s Guide has tested a wide range of services, and NordVPN is the one we most often recommend for streaming thanks to its fast speeds and broad device support. You can also try it risk-free with a 30-day money-back guarantee.

“Dad movies” have become a genuine craze in the movie world. While the subgenre doesn’t have a universally agreed-upon definition, I often find myself watching a movie and concluding “that is a total dad movie.” So what better way to celebrate Father’s Day than to put together a dad movie marathon for the dad in your life?

I might not be a dad myself, but I do have one, and I think I’m pretty good at spotting films that fit within the category. So I’ve put together a collection of films that you can stream this weekend, perfect for the annual day dedicated to celebrating fatherhood in all its forms. There’s a bit of everything down below, from sports dramas and action-thrillers to even a sci-fi option.

These are my top picks for the best dad movies you need to watch this Father’s Day.

‘Ford v Ferrari’ (2019)

Heralded as perhaps the 21st century’s most quintessential dad movie, it’s got everything you could want in the subgenre: a '60s setting, a focus on racing cars, an underdog story, and two popular actors in the lead roles, Matt Damon and Christian Bale. It comes from “Logan” director James Mangold and really is the perfect watch on a Sunday afternoon.

Based on the true story of the Le Mans ‘66 race (fun fact: the movie was released under that title in Europe), “Ford v Ferrari” sees Carroll Shelby (Damon) tasked by Ford Motor Company with building a race car that can compete with the track-conquering Ferrari fleet. To achieve this ambitious goal, he teams up with driver Ken Miles (Bale) to build a vehicle that can propel Ford to pole position in the grueling Le Mans endurance race.

‘The Fugitive’ (1993)

Based on the 1960s TV series of the same name, this 1993 action-thriller is a favorite of dads everywhere. It’s a Harrison Ford vehicle that pulled in strong box office figures in theaters and went on to be nominated for seven Oscars (including Best Picture), with Tommy Lee Jones taking home the Best Supporting Actor award. If you want some excitement this Father’s Day, “The Fugitive” delivers timeless thrills and tension.

Richard Kimble (Ford) is a surgeon in Chicago, stunned when he’s arrested and accused of murdering his beloved wife, Helen (Sela Ward). Sentenced to death, he manages to escape custody while being transferred to prison. Rather than disappear, he’s determined to find the true killer and clear his name. In response, U.S. Marshal Samuel Gerard (Lee Jones) leads a manhunt to locate Kimble. It’s a cat-vs-mouse game with high stakes.

‘Bull Durham’ (1988)

You can’t talk about dad movies without Kevin Costner being in the conversation. Heck, for many fathers, this entire list could be a roundup of the best Costner movies, and I reckon they’d be more than happy to watch them all. The competition here was fierce, but I’ve gone with 1988’s “Bull Durham” because of its setting in the world of baseball and because it offers a genuinely sweet romance between Costner and Susan Sarandon.

Costner plays Lawrence “Crash” Davis, a veteran catcher, hired by the Durham Bulls, a struggling minor league team, to mentor their hotshot rookie pitcher (Tim Robbins), said to have a “million dollar arm, and a five cent head.” Their coach-player relationship starts rocky and becomes even more complicated when they both get involved with the same woman, Annie (Sarandon), a “baseball groupie” who picks one player each season to be her lover.

‘Rocky’ (1976)

“Rocky” is a movie that needs no introduction; it’s one of the finest sports films ever made. It turned Sylvester Stallone into a bankable movie star (well deserved after he struggled to get the film made), and the franchise is still going strong with the recent “Creed” trilogy starring Michael B. Jordan. It’s a movie that will have you fist-pumping in satisfaction and is perhaps the ultimate underdog story. Plus, you just cannot beat that iconic theme tune!

The titular Rocky Balboa (Stallone) is a no-name boxer working as a collector for a loan shark, but he's got big dreams. When the reigning world heavyweight champion, Apollo Creed (Carl Weathers), offers the chance for a local contender to face him, Rocky gets his big shot. Rocky’s training for the fight of his life comes at the same time he begins a relationship and starts to fall for Adrian (Taila Shire).

Watch "Rocky" on Netflix now

‘The Martian’ (2015)

“The Martin” is a more unconventional pick, perhaps, but in my mind it’s got big dad movie energy. It’s based on the popular Andy Weir novel (the same author behind “Project Hail Mary”), and sees Matt Damon — clearly, he loves starring in dad movies — and is all about a battle for survival on the Red Planet. With a strong cast, great direction from Ridley Scott and an engrossing narrative, it’s a two-and-a-half-hour movie that flies by.

During a botched attempt to abort a mission on Mars, astronaut Mark Watney (Damon) is presumed dead and left behind on the planet’s red surface. Now stranded in a hostile environment, Watney must find a way to contact NASA so they can begin the daunting task of bringing him home, but first, he has to figure out how to survive on the hostile Mars.

“Beavis and Butt-Head” is the product of such a specific cultural moment that it may seem difficult to imagine the animated title characters continuing to exist in the 2020s. I had that same skepticism when the feature film “Beavis and Butt-Head Do the Universe” was announced in 2021, and even more so when it was announced that a new “Beavis and Butt-Head” series would follow the movie. While “Do the Universe” got a decent amount of attention when it was released on Paramount+, the series that launched a couple of months later hasn’t made nearly the same impact.

That’s disappointing because the return of “Beavis and Butt-Head” has delivered on the promise of “Do the Universe,” mixing the duo’s classic idiocy with updated buffoonery for the modern age. Maybe the show hasn’t quite found its audience on Paramount+ or linear cable channel Comedy Central, where the most recent third season initially premiered.

But the first two reboot seasons are now available on Netflix, and anyone who didn’t know that Beavis and Butt-Head are back can finally check out the hilariously moronic adventures they’ve been missing.

The appeal of ‘Beavis and Butt-Head’ is timeless

Creator Mike Judge launched “Beavis and Butt-Head” with a short segment on MTV’s animated anthology series “Liquid Television” in 1992, and the show remains an indelible part of ’90s pop culture, especially via the music videos that the duo of dim-witted teenagers would mock during interstitial segments. While the original show ended in 1997, Judge already produced a one-season return in 2011, proving that he could keep the characters fresh for any era.

Of course, “fresh” is a relative term for the limited worldview of the crass best friends (both voiced by Judge) living in the suburban wasteland of Highland, Texas. The new episodes don’t deviate from Beavis and Butt-Head’s familiar fixations on setting things on fire, ineptly attempting to “score” with “chicks,” and eating nachos.

Those crude desires are just as applicable now as they were 30 years ago, but Judge still shakes things up by also featuring middle-aged versions of Beavis and Butt-Head in some adventures, along with the alternate-dimension “smart” versions that debuted in “Do the Universe.”

Although “Do the Universe” explicitly placed the teenage characters in the ’90s before transporting them to the 2020s, the reboot exists in an eternal present, no matter the age or dimensional status of the characters. Adult Beavis and Butt-Head have not matured, and their lives are even more hilariously pathetic — and sadly indicative of the state of American society.

Judge has always been able to blend social commentary with consistent smart-stupid humor, and the new “Beavis and Butt-Head” is still laugh-out-loud funny, whether it’s sending up Christian missionaries or just finding new ways to give the title characters horrific physical injuries.

‘Beavis and Butt-Head’ is as clever and funny as it’s always been

My favorite recent “Beavis and Butt-Head” episodes are the ones that take the characters in weirdly philosophical directions, as when Beavis encounters the living embodiment of his beloved fire, or has an identity crisis when a new student also named Beavis joins their school. Judge and his collaborators find ways to explore larger issues in the context of the stupidest people alive doing the stupidest things imaginable, and that makes them even more profound.

For anyone who grew up on Beavis and Butt-Head’s mockery of music videos, the new series also cleverly updates those segments, mixing current music video clips with snippets of videos from YouTube and social media. Beavis and Butt-Head are just as savage about modern pop stars as they were about the chart-toppers of the ’90s, but now they also have the opportunity to take down self-promoting influencers and inane YouTube stunts. It’s the perfect evolution of a key element of the show, balancing the classic approach with something that makes sense for the present moment.

That kind of balance is what makes the new “Beavis and Butt-Head” so successful. As he’s done with his equally strong revival of “King of the Hill” on Hulu, Judge preserves everything that worked about the original show and moves it carefully into a new era. I admit that I get a hit of nostalgia while watching Beavis and Butt-Head, still clad in their Metallica and AC/DC T-shirts, terrorize their military-veteran neighbor Tom Anderson or antagonize their hippie teacher Mr. Van Driessen.

But if nostalgia was the only thing that “Beavis and Butt-Head” had to offer, it would wear out its welcome quickly. After three seasons of the reboot, I’m still eager to see what these dumbasses do next.

Netflix adds new movies to its already sizeable library every single month, but at the same time, it also removes some old favorites to make room. It's called "content churn," and it's an unavoidable trend across all the best streaming services.

While the new additions tend to get the spotlight, it's worth taking some time to look over the movies set to leave Netflix as well. After all, in just a few days, these movies will wave goodbye and won't be available to stream anymore (well, not available on stream on Netflix, at least).

I've combed through Netflix's confirmed slate of movies leaving the platform at the end of June 2026 and picked out a trio you should place at the top of your watchlist. Watch these great movies while you still can.

'Deepwater Horizon' (2016)

Mark Wahlberg headlines this disaster thriller based on the true story of the Deepwater Horizon oil rig explosion. The movie’s real-life inspiration grounds the on-screen events, helping the emotional beats really hit home. The impressive effects are a highlight, and even if the character work is fairly pedestrian, “Deepwater Horizon” will have you invested quickly.

On April 20, 2010, the Deepwater Horizon oil drilling rig exploded, instantly killing multiple crew members and leaving the survivors in a dangerous situation as flames engulfed the installation. The movie version of events follows technician Mike Williams (Wahlberg) as he attempts to lead his colleagues to safety while battling against the chaos. Also starring Kurt Russell, John Malkovich, Dylan O'Brien and Kate Hudson, “Deepwater Horizon” may have struggled at the box office, but it’s worth watching before it waves goodbye to Netflix.

Watch "Deepwater Horizon" on Netflix until July 1

Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle (2017)

When a reboot/sequel to 1995’s “Jumanji” was announced, I can’t exactly say I had high hopes. So color me (pleasantly) shocked when the end result, “Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle,” proved to be an entertaining popcorn blockbuster. This big-budget follow-up is heaps of fun and does a great job of paying respect to its predecessor, while taking the franchise in a slightly new direction. Plus, it stars The Rock at the peak of his powers.

Set a couple of decades after the first “Jumnaji,” four high schoolers are given detention, where they discover an old video game system and a cartridge bearing the Jumnaji name. Booting up the game, they are sucked into a virtual jungle, becoming their chosen in-game avatars (played by Dwayne Johnson, Kevin Hart, Karen Gillan and Jack Black). To escape the jungle and return to the real world, they’ll need to complete the game before they run out of lives.

Watch "Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle" on Netflix until July 1

My Girl (1991)

Anybody who has seen “My Girl” can attest that this coming-of-age comedy is both deeply heartwarming and emotionally devastating. I won’t reveal any spoilers here, but let’s just say it’s one of only a handful of movies that have produced a genuine tear from me. Starring a host of ‘90s favourites including Dan Aykroyd, Jamie Lee Curtis and Macaulay Culkin, it’s a family movie at its heart, but with a sobering edge that makes it an even richer watch.

11-year-old Vada Sultenfuss (Anna Chlumsky) is raised by her widowed father (Aykroyd) after her mother died in childbirth. This tragedy and her father’s work in a funeral parlor have led to Vada becoming something of a hypochondriac. Her world is turned upside down when her father begins dating a new woman, Shelly (Lee Curtis), and along with some help from her best friend, Tommy J. (Culkin), she attempts to break them up.

The FIFA World Cup 2026 is one of the biggest sporting events on the planet, but watching every match – including USA vs Australia – in the U.S. isn't cheap.

Most fans assume they need a cable package with Fox or streaming service such as YouTube TV to tune in. But that's not necessarily true.

The good news: if your local Fox station is available over the air, a simple TV antenna could let you watch World Cup matches for free – without any subscription!

Here's how a TV antenna can get you World Cup matches, the potential issues, and where to find free World Cup live streams if an antenna isn't for you.

A TV antenna can let you watch the World Cup (free)

Fox is a broadcast network, which means its signal is transmitted freely over the air in much of the United States.

Connect one of the best TV antennas, run a channel scan and you may be able to receive your local Fox affiliate alongside other free channels (but not FS1, because FS1 is a cable channel).

If so, you can watch Fox broadcasts without paying for cable, YouTube TV, Fubo, Hulu + Live TV, etc.

But here's the catch with antennas...

Reception depends on your location, nearby buildings, and the strength of local broadcast towers.

Some homes can pull in dozens of free channels; others may need to invest in a more powerful outdoor antenna. You might struggle to receive Fox at all.

The easiest way to check is by entering your ZIP code into an antenna signal checker before buying.

Where else can I find free World Cup coverage?

Fox's Tubi streamed a couple of World Cup games for free, but that's it. U.S. soccer fans must pay to watch the World Cup through cable or streaming services such YouTube TV (although YouTube TV does come with a handy free trial).

Here's where things get interesting, though.

The World Cup is free to stream is many countries around the world, including the U.K., Australia and Brazil. In the case of Brazil, all games are free on plain ol' YouTube – in 4K.

If you're just visiting North America from a country where it's free, you can use a VPN to tap back into your domestic free streams and watch from anywhere.

We recommend using Norton VPN – recently crowned it our No.1 Streaming VPN. Our video below explains your options...

How to watch World Cup with a VPN

With a good VPN you can watch your usual World Cup live streams from anywhere in the world. Norton VPN is our no.1 pick for fast streaming:

Should I use a TV antenna for the World Cup?

If you can get good reception, then yes, it seems like a no-brainer. Plus, devices such as HDHomeRun can connect to an antenna and stream live broadcast TV over your home network.

On the downside, an antenna requires setup, signal checks and doesn't necessarily guarantee access to every World Cup game (you don't want to be messing around trying to get a signal before kick off).

Still, if you're mainly interested in Fox's World Cup coverage, an antenna could save you some dollars over the course of the tournament.

I’m able to excuse a lot of flaws in a movie romantic comedy so long as the two leads at the heart of the plot feel worth getting invested in. “Voicemails for Isabelle” is such an example of a flawed rom-com that still managed to get its hooks into me because of its likeable stars.

The pairing of Zoey Deutch and Nick Robinson, who both have prior experience in this genre, goes some way towards absolving “Voicemails for Isabelle” of several of its sins, such as the predictable plot, bloated runtime and the awfully generic soundtrack. Even if these issues can’t be entirely forgiven, Deutch and Robinson’s chemistry keeps you invested.

Furthermore, it’s mercifully a cut above some of the streamer’s recent efforts in this area, like “Office Romance” and “Ladies First.” Anybody looking for an easy-breezy, unchallenging rom-com will surely find this movie charming enough. It packs in a blossoming romance, a rumination on grief, and a white lie that you just know is going to blow up before the end. Even if these aren't new ideas, they're at least used competently.

What is ‘Voicemails for Isabelle’ about?

San Francisco-based chef Jill (Zoey Deutch) is still reeling from the death of her best friend and sister, Isabelle (Ciara Bravo). To cope, she leaves deeply personal voicemails on her sister’s still active mobile number.

However, unbeknownst to Jill, Isabelle’s number has been reassigned to an Austin-based real estate agent, Wes (Nick Robinson). As Wes secretly listens to Jill’s funny, awkward and confessional messages, he starts to fall in love with a woman he’s never even met.

Using the information gained from the voicemail messages, Wes engineers a seemingly spontaneous meet-cute with Jill, and a sweet relationship starts to blossom. And if you’ve watched any rom-com movie ever, you can probably figure out what happens next…

‘Voicemails for Isabelle’ is just charming enough to work

As already noted, it’s really the likeability of Deutch’s Jill and Robinson’s Wes that will keep you watching “Voicemails for Isabelle.” The course of their relationship isn’t full of shocking moments or subversive twists, but they have strong chemistry and crucially feel like characters you want to see happy and end up together by the time the credits roll.

While they’re best together, it’s Deutch that carries the movie’s emotional weight. The death of her sister deeply impacts Jill, and Deutch portrays that all-consuming pain even in the moments where Jill appears happy. A later movie scene where Jill believes she lost the ability to listen to old voicemails Isabelle left while alive is highly impactful. Deutch sells the moment in an emotionally devastating fashion.

Meanwhile, Wes’ inner conflict gives the movie’s plot some dramatic momentum. He’s falling in love with Jill, while also racked with guilt for having used underhanded means to kickstart their relationship.

Like many rom-coms built around a little white lie, it’s not a question of whether the secret will spill out, but rather when and how Jill will find out. Sadly, when the moment does come, it falls mostly flat, thanks in large part to cookie-cutter scripting and the curious decision to rush the confrontation. Why not let the scene build and breathe a little?

Even if you don't mind the predictability of Jill and Wes' entanglement, you may find your patience tested by an early movie subplot that sees the former ghosted by a British dating guru, Tyler (Toby Sandeman). This shoe-horned sideplot is used to make a point about hypocrisy in modern dating, but it's perfunctory, and only delays the meeting between the two leads, which is the meat of the story, and what viewers came to watch.

Beyond Deutch and Robinson, pretty much everything else about “Voicemails from Isabelle” falls between fine and frustratingly generic. Leah McKendrick (who directs and writes) helms the movie with the typical Instagram-esque aesthetic common in 21st-century rom-coms. Everything looks ripped right out of a glossy catalogue, and filmmaking flair? Forget about it, this isn't that kind of movie.

Perhaps the movie’s commitment to generic taste is best exemplified by the soundtrack, which includes a recurring callback to Robyn’s “Dancing on My Own,” more than one Taylor Swift song, and a prolonged use of The Cinematic Orchestra’s “To Build A Home,” the prototypical sad movie track that had worn out its welcome by the mid-2010s. I half wonder if a producer merely googled “sad songs” and selected the top search result.

“Voicemails for Isabelle” is very much a streaming release. It serves as two hours of largely acceptable entertainment (side note: this movie did not need to be two hours). You can probably watch it while your attention span is equally preoccupied by your cellphone. It’s by no means a risible effort in the rom-com canon, but Deutch and Robinson can only do so much to elevate a movie that plods along through predictable beats. Even with their best efforts, it struggles to be anything more than mediocre.

Chris Stokes, who previously helmed projects like "You Got Served", "Always and Forever", and "Sacrifice" has been a prolific creator for Tubi over the last four years. In fact, he's been involved in 27 previous projects since 2022, all attached to the streaming service. "Stepfather" makes it 28.

It'll be a taut, tight thriller that runs for just over an hour and a half, and looks ideal if you want a bit of soap opera-esque fun from your next film viewing.

"Sugar" put Colin Farrell back on TV screens in a slick, neo-noir detective series with a stunning twist. Now he’s back for more with a second season.

Below, we’ll show you how to watch "Sugar" online, plus how to stream it from anywhere in the world with a VPN.

When "Sugar" first started, we all thought we were getting a fairly standard, albeit very stylish, detective show. Tracking missing person Olivia Siegel, Farrell's eponymous private eye dug deep into family dramas, dark secrets, and a kidnapping plot.

Then, it all took a crazy twist right at the end, with the character revealed to not only be a great detective but also an alien! Now, in season 2, we'll see him take on a new missing persons case with the brother of a talented boxer going off the grid, while also continuing to search for his own sister. And, of course, we'll get more answers about his extraterrestrial origins.

You won't need to chase any clues to keep up with the latest episodes, as we show you how to watch "Sugar" season 2 from wherever you are — and potentially even catch a couple of episodes for FREE.

"Funboys" follows in the footsteps of U.K. TV shows like "This Country" and "People Just Do Nothing" by offering a comedic slice of life from a very specific subculture in Britain, and it's back for more this month.

Here's how to watch "Funboys" season 2 online from anywhere with this VPN — and potentially for free.

The Funboys are back — and they're still about as equipped for adulthood as a shopping trolley with three wheels. The BBC's gloriously oddball Northern Irish comedy returns for a second season, hurling the Ballymacnoose lads into everything from the Irish Famine and dating-app disasters to balding panic and robot-combat mayhem.

Steve Coogan pops up as a pompous folk-museum tyrant, while the gang stumble through romance, identity crises and small-town chaos. Expect big laughs, bigger meltdowns and enough awkwardness to power a wind farm.

Are you ready for more mishaps and misadventures in Ballymacnoose? If so, here's how to watch "Funboys" season 2 online and from anywhere.

How to watch 'Funboys' season 2 from anywhere

Thanks to the wonders of a VPN (Virtual Private Network), "Funboys" should be available to Brits no matter where they are. The software allows your devices to appear to be back in the U.K. and watch iPlayer for free, as if you were back home.

Not all VPNs works for this – but NordVPN (try risk-free) does (we use it daily).

Using a VPN is incredibly simple.

1. Install the VPN of your choice. Try NordVPN.

2. Choose the location you wish to connect to in the VPN app. For instance, if you're away from the U.K. and want to view a U.K. service, you'd select U.K. from the list.

3. Sit back and enjoy the show. Head to BBC iPlayer to watch "Funboys" online and on-demand.

Watch 'Funboys' season 2 in the U.K.

"Funboys" season 2 will play on BBC Northern Ireland first, with two episodes airing on Monday, June 15 from 10:55 p.m. BST.

All four episodes of the sitcom will land on BBC iPlayer shortly after.

If you want to watch the episodes on linear TV in England, they'll air on BBC Three first on Friday, June 19 and then on BBC One a day later.

Outside the U.K.? You don't have to miss this show if you are a Brit living abroad because you can watch your usual streams from anywhere with a VPN. We'll explain how to do that below...

Can you watch 'Funboys' season 2 in the U.S. and Canada?

"Funboys" season 2 is exclusive to the U.K. and as such there is no broadcast or streaming plan for the show in the United States or in Canada.

The solution? NordVPN can unlock your stream so you can watch all the episodes on BBC services from anywhere.

Can you watch 'Funboys' season 2 in Australia?

You'll face a similar dilemma in Australia, with no linear TV release or streaming service drop for "Funboys" season 2.

To get around this, you can catch the show on your usual domestic streamer by using a VPN such as NordVPN.

'Funboys' season 2 - first look trailer

'Funboys' season 2 - episode guide

• Episode 1 - Blight at the Museum: The gang belatedly get involved in the Great Famine, the one thing they didn't need to get involved in. Callum's new job at the Ballymac Folk Museum sends him down a spiral of method acting as a starving peasant. And he's helped along in this grovelling subservience by his new boss, tyrannical land steward Phillip. The sudden news, to Jordan, that a million people died during the potato famine causes him to finally develop empathy, and it turns out to be a real pain.
• Episode 2 - Misery Loves Cuckoldry: Strange things are afoot in Ballymacnoose: animals in small clothing, paranormal sightings of leprechauns, and most bizarrely of all, Callum gets his first ever match on a dating app. The one prickle on the pickle is that Gwen, Callum's dream girl, is also in an open relationship with the 50-year-old Grainne, a woman who disembowels chickens for a living.
• Episode 3 - Eat ***, Pray, Love: Life in Ballymacnoose becomes very complicated when Callum accidentally walks in on Gemma and Lorcan trying out a new form of lovemaking. The sight triggers a long-buried childhood trauma in Callum and raises uncomfortable questions about the town’s deeply repressed relationship with sex. Can Ballymacnoose open its heart to true love? Meanwhile, Jordan has officially begun dating his much older lover, 50-year-old Grainne. But as their relationship deepens, Jordan is confronted with another harsh reality of adulthood: he’s going bald. Faced with the slow retreat of his hairline and the love of a good woman, Jordan must decide whether to cling to denial or embrace manhood in all its forms - love, responsibility and mushroom carbonaras.
• Episode 4 - Ballymacbot Wars: As Callum begins slowly unravelling under the strain of Jordan's relentless night terrors about baldness, he stumbles upon a flyer for Ballymacbot Wars - a local robot combat tournament offering a generous cash prize and potential ticket out of Jordan’s bedroom. Meanwhile, Jordan is uncharacteristically uninterested in the whole affair. He's become a bald hermit, terrified to leave the house and expose his creamy scalp to the outside world. That is, until, like a dagger in the night, a hooded burst of inspiration sends him back out into the world… and the robot wars.

Hulu is a great streaming service for building your next weekend movie marathon. It regularly adds originals and classics to its library. Plus, because it's owned by Disney, it's the streaming home for new releases from several Disney-owned studios. It even has deals with some other studios to get in new releases before any other service, whether they're produced by Disney or not.

This weekend, I have three movies recently added to Hulu that are a must-watch. First up is the all-time classic, "Gladiator," which I could re-watch any given weekend. Then, this Saturday, Hulu is adding "The Creator," which is a visually stunning film, even if the story doesn't always work. Finally, you'll want to check out "Between the Temples," a highly-rated comedy-drama that's arriving on Hulu this Sunday.

Here are the three new to Hulu movies you need to stream this weekend. For more recommendations, check out the full list of everything new to Hulu in June 2026.

'Gladiator' (2000)

Genre: Epic historical fiction

What's it about? "Gladiator" tells the tale of Maximus Decimus Meridius (Russell Crowe). Commander of the Armies of the North, General of the Felix Legions. Loyal servant to the true emperor, Marcus Aurelius (Richard Harris). Father to a murdered son (Giorgio Cantarini), husband to a murdered wife (Ginnina Facio). He will have his vengeance, in this life or the next.

Why you need to watch it: This movie is just awesome. Go watch it now. If you don't like it, I'll give you your money back (but not really).

Watch "Gladiator" on Hulu now

'The Creator' (2023)

Genre: Sci-fi action

What's it about? "The Creator" exists in a world where an A.I. detonated a nuclear warhead in Los Angeles, causing devastation and trauma. 15 years later, the U.S. is at war with New Asia over the fate of A.I., and they've sent special forces Sgt. Joshua Taylor (John David Washington) to take down "Nirmata," an A.I. expert who is key to the New Asian resistance.

Why you should watch it: This movie looks stunning. There's no denying that. But the story takes some twists and turns, and is frankly a bit dense when it could stand to be superficial. It's worth checking out for the visuals alone, though, and thankfully, it's got some must-watch action sequences as well.

Watch "The Creator" on Hulu starting June 20

'Between the Temples' (2024)

Genre: Comedy-drama

What's it about? Ben (Jason Schwartzman) is a cantor at Temple Sinai, who struggles to sing following the death of his wife. When he runs into his old music teacher, Carla (Carol Kane), she helps him find his voice, and in return, he helps her try to get a Bar Mitzvah, despite her old age.

Why you need to watch it: An indie darling, "Between the Temples" picked up some smaller acting awards following its Sundance debut, including a Best Supporting Performance Independent Spirit award for Kane. If you want a comedy-drama that doesn't feel run-of-the-mill, this one is worth checking out.

Watch "Between the Temples" on Hulu starting June 21

Kylian Mbappe, Lamine Yamal... Nestory Irankunda? They may well be in the Golden Boot conversation come the end of World Cup 2026, but the tournament's real MVP? That would be SBS.

The free-to-air Australian broadcast network is televising all 104 games of the World Cup between its SBS and SBS Viceland channels, with live streaming available via its SBS on Demand platform.

Coverage tops out at 1080p, but in all other senses they've pulled out all the stops, with an intuitive World Cup hub, daily preview and highlights shows, and extensive highlights of each and every fixture, within the hour.

So how do you access SBS outside Australia — in the U.S. or Canada, for instance? Read on as we explain how to watch the World Cup on SBS for free from anywhere.

Watch World Cup 2026 on SBS for free

Footy fans in Australia can watch all 104 matches from the 2026 World Cup for FREE on SBS On Demand. And, yes, that includes every Socceroos fixture.

SBS is completely free to use – no messy sign ups, just a simple free World Cup stream. But only if you're in Australia, otherwise you'll be geo-blocked.

OUTSIDE AUSTRALIA? No problem. We use Norton VPN to watch SBS when traveling abroad, visiting the U.S., Canada, the U.K., or any other country. It works perfectly.

Watch World Cup on SBS from anywhere

Although SBS on Demand is only available to viewers in Australia, if you're visiting the U.S. or Canada from Down Under, you'll be able to access the streaming service's free World Cup coverage with a good VPN. Norton VPN is our No.1 pick for fast streaming:

It's easy to watch the World Cup on SBS:

1. Install the VPN of your choice. As we've said, Norton VPN is our favorite for streaming.

2. Choose the location you wish to connect to in the VPN app. For instance if you're in the U.S. and want to view an Australian service, you'd select Australia from the list.

3. Stream live. Head to SBS on Demand to catch every World Cup game for free.

SBS Q+A

What does SBS' World Cup coverage include?

All 104 games of the World Cup will be available to live stream on SBS on Demand.

Not only that, but they're all going to be available as full replays (within 40 minutes of the final whistle), and as 30-minute, 12-minute and three-minute highlights packages (within an hour of full-time) too.

The World Cup hub on the SBS website also lets you customize your user interface by teams and groups.

SBS' coverage is led by Niav Owens and Claudio Fabiano, while punditry and analysis comes courtesy of Harry Kewell, Lydia Williams, Adriano, Andrew Redmayne, Luke Wilkshire, Sarah Walsh and Tommy Oar. David Basheer is anchoring commentary.

Remember. Use Norton VPN to watch World Cup 2026 on SBS, if you're traveling outside Australia to the U.S., Canada or beyond.

Paramount+ is a perfect streaming service for putting together your next movie marathon. Dozens of movies are added to the platform each month; it added 93 new movies and shows in June alone. These are a combination of beloved classics, modern hits and brand-new movies from Paramount Skydance studios.

This week, I'm sticking with more modern, but not quite brand-new, films. At the top of my list is "Taken," and even though you've probably seen the movie, it's worth watching again. However, you've probably not seen "Hard Eight," which is Oscar-winner Paul Thomas Anderson's first feature-length film. Finally, I'm ending things on a high note with "21 Jump Street," a buddy cop movie guaranteed to make you laugh.

Here are the three new to Paramount+ movies that you need to be streaming this weekend. If you need more recommendations, check out our full guide to everything new on Paramount+ in June 2026.

'Taken' (2008)

Genre: Action thriller

What's it about? In this career-redefining movie, Liam Neeson plays Bryan. He's a retired intelligence officer with a military background, and he's finally trying to live a normal life. That goes out the window when his 17-year-old daughter, Kim (Maggie Grace), is taken on vacation in Paris. Bryan's training immediately kicks in, and he uses a very particular set of skills to eliminate the people who took her.

Why you should watch it: "Taken" has spawned several old-man-turned-action-star films since it came out in 2008. Still, with the possible exception of "John Wick," this film remains the best of the genre. Even if you've seen it, you should make the time to see it again.

Watch "Taken" on Paramount+ now

'Hard Eight' (1996)

Genre: Crime drama

What's it about? John C. Reilly stars in "Hard Eight" as John Finnegan. A degenerate gambler, he becomes homeless after a bad run in Vegas. His life changes, though, when he meets Sydney (Philip Baker Hall), an older gambler who gets him a coffee and a cigarette, and then takes John under his wing.

Why you should watch it: If you're someone who loves to see how acclaimed directors get their start, the directorial debut of Paul Thomas Anderson is a must-watch. The cast is excellent, too. Aside from Reilly and Hall, "Hard Eight" also stars Gwyneth Paltrow and Samuel L. Jackson.

Watch "Hard Eight" on Paramount+ now

'21 Jump Street' (2012)

Genre: Buddy cop action comedy

What's it about? Morton Schmidt (Jonah Hill) and Greg Jenko (Channing Tatum) are former high school classmates who suddenly find themselves coworkers in "21 Jump Street." They're not working just any job, though: they're undercover cops sent back to high school to bring down a drug ring.

Why you should watch it: One of the best bits of this movie is that Hill and Tatum both look way too old for high school. But that's far from the only thing that will make you laugh in this comedy flick. Even the trailer will have you in stitches.

Wyndham Clark is now the overwhelming favorite to claim his second U.S. Open title after extending his lead from four to six shots at the end of the third round.

The American had led since the opening round and delivered another masterful performance on Saturday to sign for a level-par 70. His nearest challengers at Shinnecock Hills are Scottie Scheffler, Sahith Theegala, Tom Kim and Sam Stevens, all of which are on one under.

You can watch U.S. Open 2026 live streams from anywhere with a VPN.

One year ago, Spaun claimed his first major with a score of just one-under as the best golfers on the planet struggled to deal with the thick rough at Oakmont Country Club. This year could be equally challenging as the last time the U.S. Open was played at Shinnecock Hills, Brooks Koepka claimed victory with a score of one-over par.

The 2018 champion will be hoping for a repeat performance but there are question marks over his fitness after he withdrew from the Canadian Open with a hand injury. Tommy Fleetwood was the runner-up eight years ago and he heads into this year’s tournament looking to finally win his maiden major.

The Englishman is in good form but will expect fierce competition, especially from countryman Matt Fitzpatrick who has three PGA Tour wins to his name this year, and finished second at last week’s Canadian Open. England’s Aaron Rai will also arrive full of confidence after his memorable victory at the PGA Championship last month.

Unsurprisingly, though, it is Scheffler who will have the favorite tag in New York. The 29-year-old has been the picture of consistency on the PGA Tour but has struggled in the opening round of majors this year, something he will be desperate to address.

Other contenders include two-time reigning Masters champion Rory McIlroy, 2021 U.S. Open champion John Rahm and Xander Schauffele, who had top-10 finishes at both the Masters and the PGA Championship this year.

Below is a complete guide on where to watch 2026 U.S. Open live streams, together with U.S. broadcast schedules and international TV channels.

Can I watch PGA Championship 2026 for free?

In theory, you can watch the whole U.S. Open for free with Fubo (7-day free trial) in the States. There's also Kayo Sports' 7-day free trial in Australia.

Overseas? Use a VPN to access your usual service from anywhere in the world, with full instructions how to do so below.

2. Choose the location you wish to connect to in the VPN app. For instance, if you're in the U.S. and want to view an Aussie service, you'd select Australia from the list.

As the old saying goes, “they don’t make them like they used to.” There’s just something extremely special about classic movies. I wouldn’t go as far as to say that movies were better back then (I love plenty of modern films), but I adore watching films released decades before I was even born.

When it comes to classic movies (and I do mean classic here), Prime Video has always been one of the best streaming services for finding legendary flicks from the Hollywood of yesteryear. Case in point, the platform’s June 2026 slate includes some truly legendary movies. I’m taking films that have influenced generations of filmmakers and still do even today.

If you also have an appreciation for classic movies, and find anything presented in stunning black-and-white very much a positive rather than a stumbling block. Here are the five classics to watch on Prime Video now.

‘12 Angry Men’ (1957)

Forget daredevil stunts or special effects. Director Sidney Lumet proves that all you need to craft an enthralling movie is an incredible script and magnetic performances. “12 Angry Men” is as riveting as it is simplistic in setup, but to quote another old saying, “the simplest ideas are often the best.” This legal drama will have you hooked on every word as its cast of jurors debate whether a young boy committed the murder of his father.

At the heart of the debate is Henry Fonda’s Juror #8 (none of the characters are named, bar two at the very end); initially, he's the sole dissenting voice. His fellow jurors are convinced of the boy’s guilt without need for discussion, and it’s Fonda’s job to convince them to at least consider the fact before sending the defendant to the electric chair. Set in a sweltering New York City courthouse, “12 Angry Men” is more engrossing than basically any modern crime drama. It’s a true cinematic masterpiece.

‘Paths of Glory’ (1957)

No surprise to see a Stanley Kubrick movie on this list; the director was a true master of the cinematic craft. While I wouldn’t go as far as saying “Paths of Glory” is overlooked, it doesn’t get the same modern-day attention that some of Kubrick’s other movies do, so if you’ve neglected to watch this war drama until now, that’s an error you should correct. Next to “All Quiet on the Western Front,” it’s one of the most sobering anti-war pictures ever created, with Kubrick sharply portraying the futility of conflict and the human cost.

Set during World War I, a French general seeking personal glory (Adolphe Menjou) orders his men to commit to a near-impossible offensive mission. When the doomed-from-the-start plan fails and the soldiers retreat, it’s decided that three of the platoon should be court-martialed to save face. In steps Colonel Dax (Kirk Douglas) to act as the case for the defense, arguing no man should pay the ultimate price for the foolishness of their superiors.

‘The Apartment’ (1960)

“The Apartment” is probably my favorite romantic comedy of all time. It’s the ultimate feel-good watch, and a movie I’ve turned to on more than one occasion when in need of a mood-booster. Like any good rom-com, its greatest strength is the chemistry between its leads, Jack Lemmon and Shirley MacLaine. Within moments of meeting them, you’ll be rooting for their characters to figure out their baggage and just be happy together. Clearly, plenty of awards voters got swept up in their romance, as the Billy Wilder movie took home Best Picture at the 33rd Academy Awards.

“The Apartment” centers on a browbeaten insurance worker named C.C. Baxter (Lemmon), who reluctantly allows his bosses to use his Upper West Side apartment as a hook-up pad for their extramarital affairs. When company bigwig Mr. Sheldrake (Fred MacMurray) uses the apartment to liaise with elevator operator Fran (MacLaine), Baxter is heartbroken as he’s deeply infatuated with Fran himself. What follows is a charming romantic comedy-drama as Baxter tries to win the girl while also climbing the treacherous corporate ladder.

‘West Side Story’ (1961)

Earlier this week, I gave some much-deserved love to Steven Spielberg’s 2021 “West Side Story,” so it’s only fitting that now it’s the turn of the first feature adaptation of the Broadway show. Nominated for 11 Oscars and winning 10 (including Best Picture), this 1961 all-singing, all-dancing musical is bursting with flair and is fortunate enough to be scored by some of Stephen Sondheim’s best work. Even non-musical enjoyers should give it a shot.

If you somehow didn’t know, “West Side Story” is based on Shakespeare’s most renowned work, “Romeo and Juliet,” but rather than being set in Verona, Italy, the story of two star-crossed lovers is transported to ‘50s New York. Maria (Natalie Wood) is the sister of the leader of a street gang named the Sharks, while Tony (Richard Beymer) runs with their rivals, the Jets. Despite belonging to opposite sides of an ongoing turf war, they meet and fall in love, but as you probably know, tragedy is awaiting.

‘Midnight Cowboy’ (1969)

Another Best Picture winner, “Midnight Cowboy" was a controversial movie upon its release. It was even branded with an X-rating (the equivalent of an NC-17), which could have sunk its chances of success out of the gate. However, the movie’s quality, and even the backlash itself, served only to heighten interest, and it went on to be an awards favorite. And even if you’ve never seen “Midnight Cowboy,” I bet you’ve heard (and probably used yourself) its most iconic line, “Hey, I’m walkin’ here!”

Texan Joe Buck (Jon Voight) heads to the bright lights of New York City with plans of making his fortune. However, making big bucks in the big city proves to be tougher than he’d expected, and he finds himself homeless, making friends with a street rat named Ratso (Dustin Hoffman). The two come to rely on each other to survive as they roam the streets and look for a hustle that might turn their fortunes around for good.

• These are my 5 favorite classic noir masterpiece movies

As a dedicated movie theater goer — I recently caught my 50th movie on the big screen in 2026 — I watch a lot in cinemas. Amongst the tentpole blockbusters and box office breakouts, every month, I inevitably end up watching some good (often even great) films that don’t quite get the attention they deserve. And that’s why I created this monthly column.

Below, I’m highlighting five movies that recently arrived on streaming that didn’t manage to score huge audiences in theaters. That is no indication of their quality. It just proves that getting viewers off their couches and into a cinema has never been more difficult. These films deserve a second chance now that they can be enjoyed from the comfort of your home.

My picks for June 2026 include a pair of British thrillers (gotta support my native land) alongside a chilling paranormal horror. But for viewers looking for lighter watches, there’s also a charming sci-fi animated adventure and a documentary that brings The King to life. These are the 5 movies you (probably) skipped in theaters, but need to watch now on streaming.

‘Wasteman’ (PVOD)

My colleagues can attest that I’ve not shut up about “Wasteman” since I saw it in theaters in February. This intense and gritty prison-set thriller currently ranks among my favorite movies of the year. It boasts two excellent performances from rising stars David Jonsson (“Alien: Romulus,” “The Long Walk”) and Tom Blyth (“The Hunger Games” franchise, “People We Meet on Vacation”), and offers a dark insight into life behind bars.

Taylor (Jonsson) has spent the last 13 years locked up in a British prison, but thanks to his commitment to staying out of trouble, he’s set to be eligible for early release. Hoping to rebuild his relationship with his teenage son on the outside, his early release is threatened when he gets a new cellmate, Dee (Blyth), who has plans to take over the prison’s supply of contraband and quickly starts making very dangerous enemies.

Watch "Wasteman" on Prime Video (buy/rent) now

‘Fuze’ (PVOD)

Even when I was watching “Fuze” in my local multiplex, I recall thinking, “This movie feels made for streaming.” Yes, that’s an insult, but I’m still recommending it here, so that should prove that I believe it’s got some merit. It’s a crime thriller from genre veteran David Mackenzie (he helmed last year’s excellent “Relay”) and centers on an audacious heist. It’s a little predictable, and ending on a flashback sequence is a narrative choice that doesn’t work at all, but it’s got solid tension and a well-crafted twist, too.

Set in the hustle and bustle of London, the always-moving city comes to a standstill when an unexploded WWII bomb is discovered on a construction site. Military forces are called in to diffuse the situation, led by Major Will Tranter (Aaron Taylor-Johnson). While the surrounding area is being excavated, a group of criminals uses the commotion as cover to pull off a daring bank heist with very personal stakes. Also starring Theo James and Sam Worthington, “Fuze” is sort of like thriller junk food.

‘Arco’ (Hulu)

My overlooked picks this month mostly lean on the darker side of the movie spectrum, but here's a suitable option for anybody looking for something lighter. Check out “Arco” on Hulu. This French animated movie (there is an English-language dub, if you can’t do subtitles) explores a colorful future through the eyes of a precious child. It bites off more than it can chew thematically, but it gave me some real Studio Ghibli vibes.

Opening in a far-flung future, humanity now lives in the clouds with access to flying rainbow suits and even time travel. 10-year-old Arco is frustrated when his parents tell him he’s too young to accompany them on their time-travel adventures. So he steals his sister’s special suit and ends up trapped hundreds of years in the past, where he meets a young girl named Iris, and the two embark on a grand quest of their own in the hopes of reuniting Arco with his family.

Watch "Arco" on Hulu now

‘Hokum’ (PVOD)

The world of horror has been dominated by two breakout hits in recent weeks, “Obsession” and “Backrooms.” Much as I’ve loved watching these two success stories, I can’t help but feel a little disappointed for the equally chilling “Hokum,” which got overshadowed. I watch a lot of horror movies, so I am typically desensitized to the usual tropes, but there’s a sizeable stretch of “Hokum” that had me gripping my cinema seat in genuine fear.

Adam Scott plays an arrogant and abrasive American author suffering from a wicked case of writer’s block as he attempts to wrap up his next novel. After a ghostly vision of his mom, he travels to rural Ireland, to the same place his deceased parents honeymooned. On location, he learns of an urban legend claiming a witch haunts the hotel’s grand suite, and like all foolish lead characters in a horror movie, he decides to investigate.

‘Epic: Elvis Presley in Concert’ (Paramount+)

If you enjoyed Baz Luhrmann’s 2022 “Elvis” (and the movie's strong 94% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes suggests most viewers did very much so), consider “Epic: Elvis Presley in Concert” essentially a companion piece. It’s a documentary, also helmed by Luhrmann, that uses archival footage to present the King of Rock and Roll as you’ve never seen before.

During the production of “Elvis,” Luhrmann obtained rare footage of Presley in concert, intending to incorporate it into the biopic. However, much of the material was in poor shape and lacked audio. So the director spent years restoring it. The final result is “Epic,” a hybrid documentary and concert film that is now just about the closest you can get to watching the iconic rocker perform live. If you consider yourself even merely a casual Elvis fan, you need to watch this very well-received Luhrmann project.

After six months of lab testing the year's newest TVs, it has become clear that the best TVs of 2026 are pushing brightness and color accuracy to new heights. Today’s flagship TVs from Hisense and TCL deliver good performance, thanks in large part to a backlight technology called Mini-RGB that’s changing the game for picture quality.

Yet Sony isn't sitting on the sidelines. Its new "True RGB" technology also promises independently controlled red, green, and blue LEDs under the display panel but, according to Sony, offers “purer color expression, improved light steering, and ultra-wide viewing angles.” The best part? You don’t need to empty your pockets to get a taste. Despite it being used in the flagship Bravia 9 II sibling, you can get it on the Bravia 7 II at a lower price.

But does Sony’s new tech actually live up to the hype? After putting the Sony Bravia 7 II through our rigorous lab testing workflow and spending two days watching real-world content, the results didn’t blow my expectations out of the water, but I’m still very impressed.

Sony Bravia 7 II review: Pricing and availability

The Bravia 7 II is $300 more than the starting price of the 65-inch Sony Bravia 7 we reviewed in 2025. Pricing for the Sony Bravia 7 II starts at $1,600 / AU$2,699 for the 50-inch variant, and goes as high as $9,000 / AU$12,999 for the 98-inch model.

MSRPs / RRPs for the whole range are listed below:

• 50-inch: $1,599 / AU$2,699
• 55-inch: $2,099 / N/A
• 65-inch: $2,599 / AU$3,999
• 75-inch: $3,099 / AU$5,499
• 85-inch: $3,999 / AU$7,499
• 98-inch: $8,999 / AU$12,999

The 65-inch review unit we have comes in at $2,600 / AU$3,999. Sony’s flagship Bravia 9 II costs $3,600 / AU$5,999, so if you buy the Bravia 7 II, you can save an extra $1,000 / AU$2,000. Stepping down means sacrificing a handful of dimming zones, the anti-glare features, and slightly more premium audio features — but these compromises aren’t so bad given the price difference.

That said, the 7 II is venturing close to OLED pricing territory. The LG C6 OLED currently sits at $2,700, while the LG B6 costs roughly $2,000. TCL’s RGB offering, the QM8L, has a price tag of $3,000 for the 75-inch model while the Hisense UR9 costs $2,000 for a 65-inch screen after the nearly unheard of $1,500 discount it received immediately after launch.

Sony Bravia 7 II review: Design and ports

The Sony Bravia 7 II immediately felt different to me the moment I took it out of the box, largely due to its redesigned center-facing stand. As part of the setup, you slot a clear glass-like sheet into the front of the stand. Sony calls this the “Mirage Stand.” This helps hide the cables that might be behind the TV. It also helps light and color pass through.

The assembly was easy, involving building out both sides of the base, and then simply sliding the entire TV into place and fastening it with screws. Compared to my experience with setting up other TVs, the setup feels remarkably seamless. I wish other manufacturers would embrace this approach. The trade-off is that, on the sides, the Bravia 7 II is still slightly thick, similar to other RGB TVs in this class.

The other issue besides its thickness is that Sony skimped out on ports: On the left side of the TV, there are four HDMI ports, just like last year’s model, but two of them are the older HDMI 2.0b standard. (HDMI 1 and 2 are HDMI 2.0b, while HDMI 3 and 4 are HDMI 2.1.)

Those HDMI ports are all in addition to the two USB ports, optical audio out, S-Center speaker in, Ethernet, RS-232C remote, IR in, and a spot for a coaxial cable.

Finally, around the back, the non-detachable power cable is on the right rear. In that same area, Sony also gives you a spot to clip that cable to better help manage wires. The TV can be wall-mounted using the VESA holes on the back panel, should you prefer that.

My biggest gripe with the 7 II’s design is that, for this price, it should have HDMI 2.1 ports standard. If you own multiple game consoles like I do, you’ll only be able to fully enjoy them at 120Hz on two of this TV's four ports. It’s not a deal breaker, but it is a small disappointment.

How we test

Our TV review process at Tom's Guide for TVs is rigorous, but standardized. In our New York City test lab, my lab assistant and I test every TV across SDR and HDR benchmarks using the industry standard 10% window.

To ensure we are seeing the director's true vision, we switch the TV over to Filmmaker Mode which is typically the most color-accurate setting available. We also disable any AI features, Eco Mode, and any intrusive ambient light sensors that could impact readings.

We use the Jeti spectraval 1501-HiRes spectroradiometer to profile our Klein K10-A colorimeter. Once profiled, this high-end hardware works in tandem with a Murideo 8K-SIX-G Metal pattern generator and a custom workflow in Portrait Displays Calman Ultimate software to map out the TV’s performance.

For gaming performance, we use a Leo Bodnar 4K Video Signal Lag Tester to measure exactly how responsive the TV really is. Once technical lab testing is done, we put the TV through subjective testing using a curated selection of films and shows. For more on this process, read our “How we test TVs” guide.

Sony Bravia 7 II review: Performance and test results

HDR performance is where the Bravia 7 II comes into its own league, with the peak brightness reaching 2,077 nits with our 10% test window. This is far ahead of what we've seen on OLED TVs like LG C6 and nearly double that of the original Bravia 7 model. However, it’s overshadowed by the Hisense UR9 and TCL QM8L.

When watching scenes in HDR from “The Batman” on our lab’s Blu-ray player, I immediately noticed the highlights from headlights and explosions against the shadows of the night. Yet despite all of this, the black in Batman’s suit and the Batmobile remained true.

Streaming “Tom Clancy’s Jack Ryan Ghost War” on Amazon Prime, my initial impressions were corroborated: The TV rendered some really deep blacks and precisely managed highlights, ensuring that the riverside lamps in the introductory sequence showed absolutely no blooming against a black dark sky. This carried over into the film's climactic final battle, where even in dark night scenes, I could not spot any light bleed around the vibrant orange muzzle flashes or the crisp white LED signs on a building set against the dark night.

For SDR performance, Bravia TVs come with conservative brightness settings out of the box. As a result, SDR brightness measured just 100 nits in our lab testing for the TV’s best picture mode. This is significantly lower than competitors like the Hisense UR9, TCL QM8L, LG C6, and Samsung QN90. However, I do want to be clear this is no fault of the TV — Sony has a long standard of prioritizing accuracy and a true-to-Hollywood look over pure brightness in its Professional mode. Targeting 100 nits of brightness isn’t a bug to Sony. It’s a feature.

That said, your mileage will vary on how much you enjoy Professional mode. I watched a nature video of Norway on YouTube and the whites in the water lacked intensity and weren’t as bright as I hoped. Playing around with the various options in Sony’s new My Cinema presets in the settings menu optimized the SDR brightness to better suit my eyes.

Additional presets can optimize content from Netflix or Amazon Prime, but I found that switching to the standard Cinema Mode improved brightness better, pushing peaks closer to 750 nits. To be fair, Sony gives you full control and explains the various picture modes out of the box during setup, so it’s easy to change things around if you aren’t happy with the out-of-the-box settings.

So where does it falter? We measured a Delta-E of 4.79, which suggests the Bravia 7 II isn’t the strongest performer in color accuracy compared to the LG C6 or Samsung QN90F. (We reached out to Sony for clarification on why it’s higher than average and are still awaiting a response.)

Lab numbers don't always account for what the human eye can perceive through Sony's image processing. This means that sometimes a TV can still look good; personally, I felt that the TV delivered natural, balanced tones that you actually look for in real world-viewing. In SDR content like a NYC subway walkthrough on YouTube, faces still appeared lifelike.

The Bravia 7 II did not give the faces a cooler, washed-out look many other TVs in its class might produce. Similarly, in “Blade Runner 2049” on Blu-ray, the Las Vegas sequence kept true to the film’s orange hue without oversaturating natural skin tones.

Side viewing angles on this TV were impressive across all the content I watched, thanks to Sony’s X-wide Angle Pro technology. After moving my seat to both sides of the TV and rewatching the same scenes I mentioned earlier from “Blade Runner 2049,” “The Batman,” and “Tom Clancy’s Jack Ryan Ghost War,” picture quality remained consistently strong. I didn’t notice any bleed or loss in color or brightness. This is an area where many non-OLED displays typically struggle, but the Bravia 7 II held up well.

Sony Bravia 7 II review: Gaming

Gaming performance on the Bravia 7 II is a big jump from the Bravia 7: We measured input lag at 10.4ms, a huge step up from the 17.1ms from the Bravia 7 — and more in line with what we’ve seen with other 2026 TVs.

I played Lego Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight on the PlayStation 5 and had no issues. Controls felt tight and responsive during fast-paced fights where Batman and Robin took on street-level crime. There was almost no noticeable delay between my inputs and what I saw on the screen.

Since this is a Sony TV, there are added benefits when you pair it with a PS5: Auto HDR Tone Mapping lets you skip the HDR optimization you usually have to go through in most games.

But just be careful about which port you choose. If you connect to either HDMI 2.1 port on the TV, the Bravia 7 II will give you that sweet and smooth 120Hz refresh rate, support for variable refresh rate (VRR), and auto low-latency mode (ALLM). Pairing it with one of the two aforementioned HDMI 2.0 ports could result in the loss of some of this functionality.

Sony Bravia 7 II review: Sound

The built-in speakers on the Bravia 7 II are surprisingly pleasing. With a side-firing design, all the speakers are at ear level across the screen. This means dialogue and effects project clearly into the room rather than feeling trapped on the TV’s stand.

In action content like “The Batman” and “Tom Clancy’s Jack Ryan Ghost War,” voices in films and shows were easy to follow even during more chaotic scenes. Rain, gunfire, and the orchestral score never broke the immersion that I experienced.

Interestingly, a step during the TVs setup process allows you to optimize the acoustics for viewing. Sit in front of the TV with the remote, and the TV will measure the sound levels in the room. This feature is great if you want to get the most out of the TV’s sound.

Sony Bravia 7 II review: Smart TV and remote

The remote isn’t the only part of the TV with a built-in microphone — there’s one built right into the TV. I’ve always found voice remotes awkward, having to hold the whole remote to my face just to speak to the TV, so this always-ready mic made searching and getting recommendations feel more natural and hands-free. And don’t worry, it can be quickly muted using a physical slider on the bottom left of the TV for added privacy.

Tying the whole system together is the Google TV smart platform whose interface remains clean and easy to navigate. No matter what I asked it, Google’s Gemini integration helped surface content across all my streaming apps in the more conversational, “ask a friend” style that I wish Siri on my Apple TV at home could do a better job with. It’s one of the best streaming TV platforms for a reason.

The remote design is largely unchanged from last year, still with its familiar plastic finish and blue-speckled detailing. Aside from swapping the arrangement of a few buttons, Sony has added a new favorites button that lets you quickly jump to a preferred streaming app and there’s also a handy remote-finder feature should you lose it. (Pressing the power button on the TV can trigger a buzzer on the remote if it gets lost.) This is a small — but genuinely useful — touch for those moments where your remote might get lost in the sofa.

Sony Bravia 7 II review: Verdict

Though it sits below the Bravia 9 II, the Sony Bravia 7 II still has solid HDR performance. It brings bright highlights, deep shadows, and impressively clean blacks with virtually no blooming thanks to its standout “True RGB” backlight. It also has a few upgrades from its predecessor — like the stand — that make it worth upgrading to if you own the original Bravia 7.

Its conservative SDR brightness can look dim in everyday viewing, however, and its higher-than-average pricing also pushes it close to more color-accurate OLED territory. Unless it’s Black Friday or Cyber Monday, you shouldn’t expect to see major discounts on it, either.

If the so-called “Sony Tax” is too steep for you, you might want to consider the often-on-sale LG C6 OLED or even last year’s C5 OLED, Tom’s Guide’s TV of the Year.

If you’re unfazed by the sticker price, the Bravia 7 II is a stand-out TV that I would recommend to folks who want an early look at an RGB TV’s benefits without shelling out for the Bravia 9 II.
