Kill Jackie is streaming on AMC+ in the United States. The series premiered on October 2, 2026, and AMC+ lists new episodes for Fridays. Availability was checked on October 11; access outside the U.S. should be verified in the viewer's local AMC+ catalog.
Catherine Zeta-Jones stars as Jackie Price, a former cocaine dealer who has lived quietly for twenty years before becoming the target of an elite group of assassins called the Seven Demons. Instead of disappearing, she turns the pursuit around and begins hunting them. The series frames her counterattack as a stylish revenge thriller driven by a buried criminal past and the danger it brings back into her present.
The Better Sister is a twisty Prime Video limited series adapted from Alafair Burke's 2019 domestic-noir novel, headlined by Jessica Biel and Elizabeth Banks, who also executive produce. Built around the fraught, competitive bond between two sisters, the series trades in the glossy, secret-riddled suspense that has made the modern domestic thriller a streaming staple, using a shocking murder to pry open a family's carefully maintained facade.
Biel plays Chloe, a polished, successful media executive with an enviable life, while Banks plays her estranged, harder-luck sister Nicky. The two are violently thrown back together when Chloe's husband — who happens to be Nicky's ex — is murdered, and the investigation drags long-buried secrets, old resentments, and competing versions of the truth into the light. Corey Stoll and Kim Dickens co-star in a story that keeps shifting the ground beneath the audience's assumptions about who these women really are.
While reviews were mixed on the show's later-episode twists, the pairing of Biel and Banks proved a genuine draw, and the series quickly climbed into Prime Video's most-watched charts after its release. A sleek, bingeable mystery powered by two committed lead performances, The Better Sister is streaming on Prime Video.
His & Hers is a Netflix psychological thriller adapted from Alice Feeney's best-selling 2020 novel, built around a structural gimmick baked into its title: the same events told from two clashing points of view, his and hers, with the truth lurking somewhere in between. The twisty small-town murder mystery leans into unreliable narration and shifting sympathies as it doles out its secrets.
Tessa Thompson, who also executive produces, stars as a television news anchor whose life collides with a killing in the hometown she left behind. Jon Bernthal plays the detective, and her estranged former partner, assigned to the case, an investigation that repeatedly turns both of them into suspects. As the tagline promises, there are two sides and one killer secret, and the series keeps viewers guessing which version of events to trust.
Arriving in early 2026, His & Hers drew attention for the charged chemistry between its two leads and its deliberately destabilizing structure, delivering the kind of binge-ready, reveal-driven mystery Netflix has made a signature. His & Hers streams on Netflix.
Cape Fear is an Apple TV+ psychological thriller that reimagines the story first told in John D. MacDonald's novel The Executioners and famously filmed in 1962 and again by Martin Scorsese in 1991. Developed by showrunner Nick Antosca, the series counts Scorsese and Steven Spielberg among its executive producers, lending Hollywood pedigree to a modern, expanded take on the material.
Javier Bardem stars as Max Cady, the vengeful ex-convict played on screen by Robert Mitchum and Robert De Niro, who fixates on the family of a lawyer he blames for his imprisonment. Amy Adams and Patrick Wilson play the couple whose lives Cady systematically invades, as the series stretches a taut two-hour premise into an eight-episode slow burn of intimidation, manipulation, and mounting dread.
Debuting in June 2026, the series uses its longer runtime to deepen the cat-and-mouse dynamic and to depart in significant ways from the earlier films, building to a divisive, talked-about finale. Anchored by Bardem's menacing performance and Adams's fraught heroine, it became one of Apple TV+'s signature dramas of the year. Cape Fear streams on Apple TV+.
Malice is a glossy psychological revenge thriller on Prime Video, created and written by James Wood, that unfolds like a sun-drenched cross between The Talented Mr. Ripley and a modern eat-the-rich satire. Premiering in November 2025 across six episodes, it gives comedian Jack Whitehall his first leading dramatic role, cast sharply against type as a charming young man harboring a dark and patient agenda.
Whitehall plays Adam Healey, a personable tutor who insinuates himself into the household of the fabulously wealthy Tanner family, first at their idyllic Greek island retreat and later in London. David Duchovny stars as the family's tech-magnate patriarch, Jamie Tanner, with Carice van Houten as his wife Nat. As Adam makes himself indispensable, it becomes clear that his warmth masks a meticulous scheme of revenge, and the series tightens into a game of manipulation in which the audience is never quite sure who is playing whom.
Reviews were mixed, with some critics finding the plotting deliberate to a fault, but audiences made it a genuine streaming hit, drawn by its glamorous settings, its soapy tension, and Whitehall's surprising dramatic turn. Filmed in London and on the Greek island of Paros, Malice is streaming on Prime Video.
The Lowdown is an FX drama series created by Sterlin Harjo, the co-creator of the beloved Reservation Dogs, marking his return to television with another richly regional story rooted in his home state of Oklahoma. Premiering in September 2025 and streaming on Hulu, it blends noir mystery, shaggy comedy, and social conscience into a distinctly Tulsa-flavored character study.
Ethan Hawke stars as Lee Raybon, a self-styled truthstorian, an obsessive amateur historian, rare-book dealer, and gadfly journalist who cannot stop digging into the buried secrets of his city. When his investigation into a prominent local family's death pulls him into a web of corruption, old money, and long-suppressed history, Lee's compulsive truth-telling puts him and those around him in real danger. The character is loosely inspired by the late real-life Tulsa historian and activist Lee Roy Chapman, grounding the series in genuine local lore.
Critics embraced the show as a warm, idiosyncratic showcase for Hawke and for Harjo's deep affection for Oklahoma's people and contradictions, praising its blend of mystery-of-the-week momentum and lived-in regional texture. Like Reservation Dogs before it, The Lowdown finds the universal in the specific. It streams on Hulu.
The Waterfront is a soapy, sun-drenched Netflix crime drama from Kevin Williamson, the writer behind Dawson's Creek and the Scream films, returning to his native North Carolina for a story of family, legacy, and criminal temptation. The series centers on the Buckleys, a once-dominant fishing dynasty in the fictional coastal town of Havenport whose empire is crumbling. To save the family business, patriarch Harlan Buckley and his relatives are drawn back into the drug-running that built and nearly destroyed them a generation earlier.
Holt McCallany stars as Harlan, a hard, proud man recovering from heart attacks and desperate to hold his territory, with Maria Bello as his sharp-edged wife Belle and Melissa Benoist as his troubled daughter Bree, a recovering addict fighting to regain custody of her son. As the family's smuggling operation reignites, long-buried secrets, rival criminals, and law enforcement all close in, and the Buckleys discover how much they are willing to sacrifice to protect their name.
Williamson has said the show is his most personal, drawing on his own father's history, and that lived-in specificity gives the pulpy melodrama a surprising emotional weight. Anchored by a committed ensemble and Williamson's gift for cliffhangers, The Waterfront became a summer streaming hit and is available on Netflix.
Untamed is a gripping Netflix limited series that fuses a murder mystery with the sweeping grandeur of the American wilderness. Eric Bana stars as Kyle Turner, a special agent for the National Park Service's Investigative Services Branch — a real but little-known law-enforcement unit that polices crimes committed on federal parkland. When the body of a young woman is discovered at the base of El Capitan in Yosemite, Turner's investigation pulls him deep into the park's hidden dangers and the buried traumas of his own past.
Created by Mark L. Smith, the screenwriter behind The Revenant, together with his daughter Elle Smith, the series uses its vast natural setting as more than a backdrop — the wilderness becomes a character in its own right, beautiful and indifferent to the human violence it conceals. Bana anchors the show with a weathered, haunted performance as a man as remote and forbidding as the landscape he patrols, while Lily Santiago plays a rookie ranger drawn into the case and Sam Neill offers grounded support as the park's veteran chief.
A surprise summer hit, Untamed became one of Netflix's most-watched titles of the year and was quickly renewed for a second season set to relocate to a new national park. Praised for its atmosphere, its twisting plot, and Bana's magnetic lead turn, the series is streaming on Netflix.
