After seeing this animated short to promote Monument Valley 3, I’d watch 10 others like it.

Max has been available in a handful of European countries since earlier this year, but now that Warner Bros. Discovery and Sky have re-upped their distribution partnership, the one to watch is finally launching in the UK and Ireland some time in 2026.

A new Apple TV Plus movie called The Gorge sees Miles Teller (Top Gun: Maverick) and Anya Taylor-Joy (Furiosa) standing guard on opposite sides of a mysterious gorge.

They’re only supposed to prevent whatever’s in the gorge from escaping, and they’re not to have any contact with one another — a rule they break, of course. The Gorge debuts on February 24th.

To remind everyone that Max offers a selection of excellent classic films, the streamer’s TCM hub is rolling out a monthly series of “curational moments” next year that will highlight the work of stars like Cary Grant and Elizabeth Taylor.

If you’ve been waiting to stream Joker: Folie à Deux like a sensible person, the time is almost here because the film is coming to Max on December 13th.

Most everyone’s feeling festive in the new trailer for Doctor Who’s latest Christmas special, but the Doctor (Ncuti Gatwa) himself seems to be dealing with an existential crisis.

Neither he nor his new buddy Joy (Nicola Coughlan) seem to know why there are two of him at the same place and time. But they’ll probably have a blast figuring it out when the epidode debuts on December 25th.

The long-in-the-works crackdown will begin next week with “some very early, gentle messaging,” WBD’s JB Perrette said at a conference today, according to TheWrap. Perrette says you’ll be able to add a member to your account in the first quarter of next year.

Subtitled episodes of Dragon Ball Daima have been streaming on Netflix, Hulu, and Crunchyroll for some time now, but the series’ English dub starring Stephanie Nadolny as mini Goku and Paul Castro Jr. as mini Vegeta is finally coming to Crunchyroll on January 10th.

This time it’s Lucky, which stars Anya Taylor-Joy “as a young woman who left behind the life of crime she was raised in years ago, but must now embrace her darker, criminal side one final time in a desperate attempt to escape her past.” No word on when the series will be streaming.

Apple’s mystery-packed thriller is coming back for season 2 early next year. The new season shifts the setting to London, as Sophie (Gugu Mbatha-Raw) “continues her mission for answers in her hometown.” It starts streaming on February 21st, joining an early 2025 lineup that also includes the return of Severance in January.

We don’t know exactly what it will look like, but Call of Duty will feature some kind of Squid Game collaboration in January that covers both Warzone and Black Ops 6. That’s right after season 2 of the show hits Netflix on December 26th.

Arcane’s final season featured one of the better examples of how universe-hopping really can bring some depth to a character’s story. And in a new interview with Polygon, writer / co-executive producer producer Amanda Overton explains how “making it feel like the fabric of that episode is absolutely interconnected to the rest of the season” was essential to making this multiverse work.

Even if Star Wars: Skeleton Crew’s “The Goonies, but in space” premise doesn’t sound like it’s up your alley, you gotta admit that this kid’s all-terrain hover bike is sick as hell. If this is the kind of heat the show’s bringing when it premieres tomorrow, it might be something really special.

I’m still not really sure why Player 456 is heading back for season 2 of Squid Game, but the new trailer at least gives a good sense of what he’s in for. The show premieres in one month, hitting Netflix on December 26th.

Beetlejuice Beetlejuice might not be your go-to holiday comfort watch yet, but you’ll be able to change that on December 6th when the film debuts on HBO Max. The streamer’s also releasing American Sign Language (ASL) and Língua Brasileira De Sinais (LIBRAS) versions of the film in the US / Europe and Brazil, respectively.
