Netflix
10 moviesA former black-ops soldier must protect a witness in a safe house that turns out to be anything but. Taut, relentless, and one of Netflix's most-hyped originals of 2026. Think No Way Out meets The Raid.
A coastal coming-of-age romance following two marine biology students whose research rivalry turns into something neither expected. Sweet, smart, and beautifully shot on location in Portugal.

A Netflix animated original following a tiny alien seed that lands in a school garden and slowly learns what it means to grow alongside the seven children tending it. Gorgeous visuals and quietly profound themes.
Fracture Line (March 14)
Zendaya, Oscar Isaac, and Cate Blanchett in a geo-thriller about manufactured earthquakes if that sentence doesn't have you already sold, read the description again. Director Marcus Webb delivers one of the most unexpected blockbusters of the year. The science is plausible enough to be genuinely unsettling.

A black comedy set entirely over a single three-course dinner between a family that hasn't been in the same room in eight years. Sharp, darkly funny, and structurally brilliant. Adam McKay's finest film in a decade.

Disney+
7 moviesThe latest MCU Disney+ exclusive following a weather-manipulating anti-hero who is forced to work with SHIELD to prevent a global climate weapon from being deployed. Big, loud, and delivers exactly what it promises.
A Disney Animation original set in a world where moonlight carries messages between loved ones separated by distance. Stunning visual poetry and a quietly profound story about communication, loss, and connection. Potential for Oscars buzz.

A theatrical-length Star Wars event film bridging two series timelines, following Ahsoka Tano through a series of tests designed to either restore her place in the Jedi Order or reveal a darker truth about the Force. Fans will riot (in a good way).
The sequel to Elemental Ember and Wade navigate a new city, new cultures, and new challenges when they're offered a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that would take them away from everything they've built. Beautiful, emotional, and genuinely worthy of the original.
A live-action Disney prequel exploring how Mowgli first came to the jungle focusing on Bagheera's history and the origin of Shere Khan's vendetta. Gorgeous jungle cinematography and a surprisingly emotional core.
An IMAX-quality documentary filmed with next-generation underwater cameras in the ocean depths, revealing ecosystems never previously captured on film. The most visually stunning documentary of 2026 so far.
Apple TV+
6 moviesApple's prestige drama of the year. A UN interpreter becomes the only witness to an assassination she was never meant to hear spoken in a language only she understands. Methodically crafted and phenomenally acted. Early awards favourite.

Two musicians one at the end of a celebrated career, one at the very start meet during the same concert interval and discover a connection that neither knows how to place. Quiet, devastating, and performed with extraordinary restraint.
A financial journalist uncovers evidence of a market manipulation scheme so large that publishing it could trigger a global recession. The ethical questions it raises are more disturbing than the crime itself.
An Apple Original animated film about a lighthouse keeper's daughter who discovers that the light she tends each night is guiding something far older than ships. Visually extraordinary and tonally unlike anything else in animation this year.
Three separate stories a fisherman, a coast guard officer, and a marine biologist converge during a catastrophic storm off the coast of Nova Scotia. Rigorously researched and emotionally precise. One of Apple's finest productions.
Max
5 moviesA DC Comics event film following a group of anti-heroes assembled to stop a solar weapon that would plunge the northern hemisphere into permanent darkness. Spectacular set pieces, genuinely complex characters, and a tone that takes its premise seriously.

A horror film set on a decommissioned oil platform in the North Sea, where a maintenance crew discovers that the previous crew's disappearance was not an accident and whatever caused it is still there. Atmospheric dread, minimal CGI, maximum tension.

Peacock

A NASCAR driver discovers she's being used as an unwitting courier for a drug cartel that has infiltrated the sport at every level. Kinetic, loud, and exactly as fun as that premise implies.
A woman returns to her family's remote estate after her estranged father's death and finds that something in the house has been waiting for her specifically. Psychological horror that earns every scare through character rather than cheap tricks.
A road movie following a recently widowed man and his estranged teenage son driving from Maine to Arizona to scatter their wife and mother's ashes and finding, slowly and painfully, that they actually like each other. A quiet gem.
A sports comedy about the worst amateur football team in Ireland somehow qualifying for a European competition and the chaos, community, and unexpected heart that follows. Irresistibly likeable.
