This is a big moment for science fiction fans. But 2026 also promises a lot of smaller, more intimate sci-fi films, like Iron Lung, which proved these films can be successful in theaters. And for a great sci-fi option to watch at home, this new movie on Hulu is perfect for a weekend watch.
According to FlixPatrol, Ted is currently the most popular TV show on Peacock in the U.S. It’s also a top 10 hit on HBO Max, where it’s available to watch in many countries. Plus, Ted is ranking among the top 10 shows on the Apple TV store in both the United States and Canada.
The show Sweetpea, initially described as a gender-swapped take on Dexter, doesn’t quite match that show’s style. However, its renewal for a second season is bringing renewed focus to actress Sofia Purnell and her ability to play a wide range of characters – from charming and lighthearted to dark and complex.
Historical movies either stick closely to real events or use history as a backdrop for a compelling story, offering a fresh take on people, plot, or setting. Mel Gibson has consistently favored this approach throughout his career. His 2006 film deserves another look, especially now that it’s been two decades since it came out. It’s a classic historical epic, but also stands out as one of the greatest survival movies ever made.
With so many shows available, Netflix Originals need to be exceptional to stand out. A particular thriller series has done just that, captivating audiences across four seasons and consistently improving with each new release. It recently returned to Netflix’s top ten, making it perfect for a weekend binge.
We have two main concerns: First, why does the actor playing Bill Clinton need to look exactly like the original governor? The scene centers on another character’s reaction, so couldn’t we mostly show their face and obscure Clinton’s? Second, is the AI-created Bill Clinton actually unsettling to watch? The show has consistently felt realistic and grounded in the early 90s, and a highly accurate Clinton might fit that style. However, it could also disrupt the otherwise carefully constructed sense of reality the show has built.
The movie The Immortal Man takes itself far too seriously, especially when it emphasizes the worst aspects of the Peaky Blinders TV show. Peaky Blinders has always worked because it offered two things: a thrilling, over-the-top family crime saga where the Shelbys overcome powerful enemies, and a tendency to portray Tommy Shelby as a morally ambiguous, almost heroic figure who’s excused for his violent actions. The trailer for The Immortal Man was worrying because it lacked most of the show’s familiar characters – where were the core Blinders? – but perhaps the director and writer hoped to create something new for audiences unfamiliar with the series.
Following the decision to edit her acceptance speech, Tailfeathers returned her award on Wednesday. In an email to the TFCA, she explained that she felt her words were unfairly silenced under the guise of protecting her, which she found deeply concerning. She believes the awards should celebrate free expression, and censorship goes against that principle. Tailfeathers expressed her disgust and shame at the act of censorship, stating that remaining neutral is itself a political choice and a form of harm. Because the award was now connected to this censorship, she could no longer accept it in good conscience.
Steven Knight, the creator of Peaky Blinders, developed the series alongside Tom Hardy and his father, Chip. Although Peaky Blinders is his most acclaimed work, Knight is also aware of the success of Taboo. He recently discussed the future of Taboo during a question-and-answer session on Reddit.
With the series ending after eight episodes, it’s expected that some important characters will die. The most likely candidate is Homelander, the show’s main villain who pretends to be a hero. While it won’t be simple, one character possesses the ability to defeat him.
