I’m positively getting the tissues prepared.– Grace Morris, leisure author
The Studio (Apple TV+)
Watch On
With Severance season 2 firmly within the rear view mirror, Apple wants one other outrageously sensible TV Original to fill the void. While Surface season 2 and Dope Thief are value watching, it is The Studio that I’m recommending as your subsequent must-see present on Apple TV+.
A intelligent cringe comedy collection that does not maintain again in its satirical tackle Hollywood and the leisure trade extra broadly, The Studio is an absolute riot. Seth Rogen stars as Matt Remick, the newly-appointed CEO of fictional firm Continental Studios whose makes an attempt to avoid wasting the floundering enterprise results in all method of slapstick moments, belly-aching laughs, and not-so-subtle digs at celebrityism, the LA get together scene, and the churn of the Hollywood machine.
With top-tier performances from its supporting solid, together with Kathryn Hahn and Catherine O’Hara, plus a complete host of cameo appearances – Martin Scorsese and Netflix CEO Ted Sarandos are in it, for goodness sake! – The Studio is completely unmissable.

Chalamet sings all of the traditional songs within the movie himself, so count on a recent tackle favorites like Mr Tambourine Man and Like A Rolling Stone. – Amelia Schwanke, senior leisure editor
Holland (Prime Video)
Watch On
After the Nicole Kidman-led Netflix collection The Perfect Couple disillusioned me not too long ago, I’m actually hoping Holland shall be a return to type for the long-lasting actress. The plot is intriguing sufficient, however with a 30% Rotten Tomatoes rating from the critics, there’s an actual likelihood I’ll be let down once more after I watch it this weekend. Having stated that, critics’ scores don’t assure the viewers will hate it too, so we’ll need to make our personal minds up.
There’s an awesome solid right here, no less than, with Kidman joined by Matthew Macfadyen, Naomi Watts, and Bryan Cranston, so the film is definitely not missing in terms of expertise. Holland is one to strive in the event you’re hoping for a mystery-thriller to get caught into, it’s now streaming on Prime Video. Maybe you’ll prefer it greater than you suppose, there’s just one solution to discover out! – LB
Queer (Max)

Luca Guadagnino’s newest movie sees the Italian director again in his factor. Since the theatrical launch of Queer in 2024, many cannot cease speaking about it, together with TechRadar’s Rowan Davies who stated it was his favourite film of 2025 to this point, and I’m not shocked following the success of Challengers and Call Me By Your Name. The director has a approach with romantic dramas.
Adapted from a novel by William S. Burroughs of the identical identify, Queer is about in Nineteen Fifties Mexico City and tells the story of an expat’s (Daniel Craig) relationship with a younger scholar (Drew Starkey). Critics have not been overly taken by the brand new film, which implies it will not be among the best Max films, however that does not imply that audiences will not get pleasure from streaming one other nice A24 film. – AS

Watch On
MobLand is one other TV crime drama created by the king of the gangster style Guy Ritchie and incorporates a star-studded solid of Tom Hardy, Helen Mirren and Pierce Brosnan. In this new Paramount+ present, two London crime households battle for energy that threatens to finish empires and break lives. Caught within the crossfire is Harry Da Souza (Hardy), a street-smart ‘fixer’ who is named upon by the Harrigans to guard their household.
This potential finest Paramount+ present would be the good various whereas I await season 2 of Ritchie’s hit Netflix collection The Gentlemen and I can’t wait to see his signature violence and distinctive characters again on the small display in one other gangland saga. – GM
