Project Hail Mary
This heartfelt and dazzling sci-fi adventure opens with a middle school science teacher (Ryan Gosling) awakening on an interstellar spacecraft, light-years from home, with no recollection of why he’s there. Loneliness and fear grip him, but he slowly recovers his memories, seen in flashbacks. Earth’s sun, like all stars in the galaxy, is being devoured by a mysterious life form. He’s on a research mission to the one star that isn’t affected. Help and hope arrive in the form of a brilliant fellow space traveler sent from his planet on the same quest. Through friendship, the voyagers create a plan to save their homes. Streaming now, MGM+ —Kate Hahn
Song Sung Blue
What is it that makes this truth-based musical dramedy so good (So good! So good! So good!)? After a brief meet-cute, Mike Sardina and Claire Cartwright (Hugh Jackman and Kate Hudson) bond over Neil Diamond and create the spirited tribute act Lightning and Thunder. Their joy and talent are obvious, but the tests of their love through health issues is what gives this movie its heart as they head toward a comeback that you’d be inclined to believe they never would. Michael Imperioli, Jim Belushi, and Pearl Jam highlight a winning supporting cast. Streaming now, Netflix —Robert Edelstein
Reminders of Him
A tragic accident, a woman trying to rebuild her life, a bar owner tied to her painful past…author Colleen Hoover‘s 2022 novel jumps from page to screen in this swoony adaptation starring Maika Monroe, Tell Me Lies‘ Tyriq Withers and Gilmore Girls‘ queen Lauren Graham. Keep the tissues close. Streaming Friday, July 10, Peacock—Damian Holbrook
Wuthering Heights
Don’t expect high fidelity to Emily Brontë’s 1847 novel about lovers brooding on the 19th-century English moors. Only the novel’s first half is covered here with Margot Robbie as the ill-fated Cathy and Jacob Elordi as her paramour Heathcliff. The bold costumes and sets make up for storytelling liberties. Streaming now, HBO Max —Michael Fell
Hamnet
Jessie Buckley won an Oscar for her herbalist Agnes, William Shakespeare‘s (Paul Mescal) wife, during a tragic chapter in their marriage, the death of their young son Hamnet (Jacobi Jupe) while the Bard is in London writing a play. Agnes finally begins to heal when she sees her husband’s production of Hamlet and realizes it is a tribute to her lost child. Streaming Monday, July 6, Netflix —KH
Scream 7
Ghostface is back, and so is Neve Campbell, who returns as eternal final girl Sidney Prescott after skipping Scream 6. But even with the time off — and a new life in Indiana with daughter Tatum (Isabel May) and hubby Mark (Joel McHale) — Sid will need reporter pal Gale Weathers (Courteney Cox) to outwit a new baddie posing as an OG Woodsboro killer. Streaming now, Paramount+ —DH
Avatar: Fire and Ash
Even on the small screen, the third film in James Cameron‘s epic sci-fi series still delivers the cinematic thrills and eye-popping visuals we expect from Avatar. This trip to Pandora finds soldier-turned-Na’vi Jake Sully (Sam Worthington) and wife Neytiri (Zoe Saldaña) facing the fight of their lives against their world’s biggest hater. Streaming now, Disney+ —DH
How to Make a Killing
Glen Powell stars in this wickedly dark satire of the upper crust’s seedy underside. The Maverick breakout plays Beckett Redfellow, the cash-strapped son of a disowned heiress who learns that he’s in line to inherit $28 billion…behind seven privileged relatives. And suddenly, Beckett has a lot of blood on his hands. Streaming now, HBO Max —DH
Wicked: For Good
Act 2 of the Oz-set musical picks up after Elphaba (Cynthia Erivo) defies gravity — and the Wizard (Jeff Goldblum). She finds herself fighting for animal rights while being hunted as the Wicked Witch of the West. Meanwhile, her bestie Glinda (Ariana Grande) must decide how to help Elphie from her enchanted bubble. Streaming Monday, July 20, Netflix & HBO Max —Emily Aslanian
The Devil Wears Prada 2
There might be too many reboots and sequels nowadays, but this fashion comedy is one that was welcomed with open arms. Even though the fictional Runway magazine — and media in general — has drastically changed in the last two decades, it’s great to see Andy (Anne Hathaway) and boss Miranda (Meryl Streep) go toe-to-pointed-toe again. Streaming Wednesday, July 29, Hulu & Disney+ —EA
