New movies
Heretic (Max)
Available: US
Watch now: Max
You have never seen Hugh Grant quite like this. The British rom-com icon transforms into a creepy horror villain in Heretic, the new movie from filmmaking duo Scott Beck and Bryan Woods, and he even got a BAFTA nomination for it.
The movie follows two young missionaries (played by Sophie Thatcher and Chloe East) who are "forced to prove their faith when they knock on the wrong door and are greeted by a diabolical Mr. Reed, becoming ensnared in his deadly game of cat-and-mouse." It was one of the best horror movies of last year, and now it's your chance to give it a watch at home.

Picture This (Prime Video)
Available: Worldwide
Watch now: Prime Video
Bridgerton star Simone Ashley continues to explore romance on screen in Prime Video's new original movie Picture This, which she produced herself. The premise is pure rom-com silliness, in the best way possible — a spiritual guru predicts that single Pia will meet the love of her life among the next five dates she goes on.
Her family goes bonkers at this prophecy of sorts, as Pia's ex boyfriend Charlie (played by After star Hero Fiennes Tiffin) resurfaces to remind her of the one who got away. If you're looking for an easy watch this weekend, you might want to add Picture This to your watchlist.

New TV shows
Daredevil: Born Again (Disney Plus)
Available: Worldwide
Watch now: Disney Plus
The wait is finally over – the first two episodes of the highly anticipated Daredevil: Born Again are now available to watch on Disney Plus, with Charlie Cox reprising his role as the fan-favorite lawyer/vigilante. After being officially introduced in the MCU through brief cameos (from Spider-Man: No Way Home to Echo), this is Matt Murdock's first big show within the superhero franchise, so expect lots of blood and stunning fighting choreographies.
Set several years after the events of the Netflix show, Born Again sees Murdock reuniting with his nemesis Wilson Fisk (aka Kingpin), who is now running for New York mayor. We've been warned that there is a traumatic event happening at the beginning of the season, so be ready for anything.

The Leopard (Netflix)
Available: Worldwide
Watch now: Netflix
If modern-day romances and superhero adventures are not your thing, Netflix has added a different kind of flavor to this weekend's streaming menu. The Leopard is a new adaptation of Giuseppe Tomasi di Lampedusa's classic Italian novel, which is set in 19th-century Sicily. This period drama follows wealthy aristocrat Don Fabrizio Corbera, the Prince of Salina, as he sees his comfortable world crumble before his eyes with the invasion of Sicily in 1860.
It might be difficult to live up to Luchino Visconti's 1963 adaptation, which starred Burt Lancaster and Alain Delon, but it's as good opportunity as any to (re)discover this iconic story.

Prime Target season finale (Apple TV Plus)
Available: Worldwide
Watch now: Apple TV Plus
All episodes of Prime Target are now available to watch on Apple TV Plus, after the last episode of the season (episode 8, The Key) dropped this week. The White Lotus and One Day star Leo Woodall, who we saw most recently starring in Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy alongside Renée Zellweger, leads the cast of this action thriller series, released earlier this year.
Created by Steve Thompson, the story follows a post-graduate mathematics student who is on the verge of discovering a revolutionary idea that would allow him to access every computer in the world. When he realises someone wants to destroy his project, a bigger conspiracy starts to unravel around him. Are you ready to discover all the answers?

Paradise season finale (Hulu)
Available: US
Watch now: Hulu
Another show is wrapping up this week, and it's one of the best TV series of 2025 so far. Starring Sterling K. Brown and James Marsden, Hulu's Paradise is the kind of suspense rollercoaster that will have you on the edge of your seat episode after episode. It might look like a espionage thriller similar to The Night Agent, but it is actually more surprising than that.
The story follows Xavier Collins, a single father and head of the Secret Service for President Cal Bradford. When Collins finds the President dead in his bedroom, all hell breaks loose. With the last episode of the season now available to stream, we're finally going to find out who killed the president. Spoiler: it's someone we know.
