We are in a golden age of TV science fiction: every streaming service wants a big sci-fi show, and they’re prepared to pay to make them look as spectacular as possible. Many of the best shows of the 2020s take us away from our regular reality - here is our pick of the top ten, plus a guide on where to stream them. Enjoy the journey!

Severance

You don’t need rocket ships and two-headed aliens to qualify as science fiction: one simple concept can be enough. How about a company that wipes its employees’ memories of the outside world when they enter the building, then makes them forget all about work when they go home? Severance takes that idea and extrapolates it to create a stinging satire on office culture, which brims with odd characters and meticulously constructed, eerily beautiful shots courtesy of director Ben Stiller. Severance might not be the most spectacular show on this list, but it’s almost certainly the smartest.

Silo

Sci-fi loves a dystopia, especially if it’s life in the aftermath of a nuclear apocalypse. Here the survivors have taken refuge underground in a very narrow, very deep bunker, where the people in charge live on the upper floors and the ordinary working person has to slum it down below. The citizens of this society have been told that the only alternative is death: the air outside will kill them. But is that true? As myths crumble and the silo-dwellers on the lower floors wonder whether their rulers are really benign, Silo brings us sharp allegory and tough action with a nicely grubby steampunk vibe.

Dark Matter

Put your brain in top gear for a multiverse-driven drama that revels in the complexity of its story: Joel Edgerton plays Jason, a physicist who starts hopping between realities when he trades places with a different version of himself. When it gets to the point where numerous Jasons are helping and/or killing each other, it’s time to just let go and enjoy a highly imaginative ride: the scene where Jason - or rather, a Jason - runs down an infinite corridor, opening door after door and sampling an entirely different version of Earth behind each one, is a real mind-melter.

Invasion

There’s an old maxim in horror and sci-fi writing: don’t show too much of the monster too early. Invasion takes that to heart, since although it’s about an alien infiltration that threatens the future of humanity, it’s much more concerned with humanity itself and how people respond to the worst possible crisis. While ordinary citizens make decisions that reveal who they really were all along, and governments and the military show their true colours too, the threat of the invaders hangs in the corner of our eye, giving a classy series a constant feeling of menace.

Foundation

Dramatising the work of storied science-fiction novelist Isaac Asimov is a daunting task for any TV show, but this series is totally up to it. With Jared Harris leading a fantastic cast as Hari, the mathematician whose science of “psychohistory” enables him to predict the future and mess around with time, and Lee Pace putting in a corking turn as cloned emperor Brother Day, the sprawling story of a future universe where people are fighting for freedom from oppressive regimes is rendered as a truly spectacular epic. There’s something dazzling, thought-provoking or both in every episode. 

3 Body Problem

This sophisticated drama has serious pedigree: it’s overseen by writers David Benioff and DB Weiss, and serves as their follow-up to Game of Thrones, so it knows how to tell a big story - which is just as well, because fans of Chinese novelist Liu Cixin and his Remembrance of Earth's Past trilogy would not have tolerated a second-rate dramatisation. A tale that begins with physicists recording impossible results in their experiments ends up being an essay on the future of humanity itself, with big ideas pinging about like electrons - and some massive set pieces thrown in to keep our pulses racing.

Dune: Prophecy

Women rule the universe in this savvy Dune prequel, starring Emily Watson and Olivia Williams as two sisters heading up the Sisterhood, an organisation that will become what fans of the films know as the Bene Gesserit. The story is one of revolutions, rival factions and dreadful prophecies, set in worlds where the power of the mind is as important as any military weaponry - all this takes place against some of the most beautiful artificial landscapes on TV, with Watson and Williams lending it tons of extra class.

Upload

Do you feel like more and more of your mind, body and soul is gradually being uploaded to the internet? How about if you could actually just live online, cheating death into the bargain? That’s what’s available to the people who can pay to do it, in a sly comedy that takes aim both at all of us doomscrolling, and at big tech companies who may not be as cuddly and caring as they make out. It turns out that the digital utopia the characters here are promised may have the odd rather serious glitch…

Station Eleven

If you like a sci-fi show that gives you all the feels and leaves you with thoughts you could ponder on for days, check out this ambitious miniseries, based (quite loosely) on Emily St John Mandel’s novel and reminiscent of epic series such as The Leftovers. We are 20 years on from a pandemic that has upended society, but this isn’t your regular post-apocalyptic dystopia. Big concepts, rich characters and profound emotions are everywhere in a show that ultimately has a simple message: in the worst circumstances, humans will come together - helped by the art they create - and survive.  

Fallout

At first glance you might think this is basically the same show as Silo: a nuclear bomb goes off, and two centuries later the characters we meet have only ever known life in their sealed underground bunker. But in a series based on the popular video game franchise, soon we are following Lucy (Ella Purnell) out of Vault 33 and into the world above ground, which is a retrofuturist maelstrom with danger around every corner. For those who like their sci-fi brash and energetic rather than pensive and allegorical, Fallout is a blast.

Got yourself an Apple TV+ subscription and don’t know what to watch on it? Let us guide you with our top ten TV shows and films on the popular streaming service, which has everything from innovative sci-fi to wartime adventure, as well as epics from two legendary directors.

Severance

The cleverest drama on TV? Set in and around a mysterious company that wipes its employees’ memories of the outside world when they arrive for work - and does the reverse at home time - Severance is a super-smart satire on the way we give up our true selves for the sake of a wage. But with its fabulous visual imagination and drily witty script, it’s much more.

Blitz

Less challenging than some films by director Steve McQueen (12 Years a Slave) but no less engaging, this film turns on a sensational debut by Elliott Heffernan as George, a ten-year-old who is evacuated from London during the Second World War. George returns in search of his mother (Saoirse Ronan), embarking on an adventure that shows the harsh reality of a city under fire.

Silo

Life after the apocalypse is tough for the characters in this high-concept sci-fi epic: they’re stuck underground, in a deep vertical bunker, and are told tales of the instant death that awaits them if they walk into the toxic wasteland outside. But is that true? A sophisticated political allegory develops as the citizens of the silo wonder if the people in charge are who they say they are.

Fly Me to the Moon

Fans of old-school screwball comedies should give this historical rom-com a whirl, especially if you love tall tales set in the 1960s. Scarlett Johansson stars as a marketing whiz hired by the Richard Nixon government to make a fake moon landing, in case the real one goes wrong. Channing Tatum’s serious Nasa guy is horrified, but eventually the pair see eye to eye.

Prime Target

Think The Da Vinci Code, mixed with a bit of The Bourne Identity, but where the mystery the hero and the baddies are chasing is a maths problem, and you have the unlikely formula for this thriller. Luke Woodall (The White Lotus) is the genius-level geek whose work with prime numbers takes him from Cambridge University to the back streets of Baghdad.

Killers of the Flower Moon

A Martin Scorsese masterpiece that looks like a Western but turns the genre on its head. In the 1920s, the Osage Nation in Oklahoma strikes oil and is then hit by a series of murders - Leonardo DiCaprio and Robert De Niro play the men whose greed drives them to commit heinous acts, with Lily Gladstone as the indigenous woman caught in a slowly unfolding tragedy.

Slow Horses

Why are there so many spy dramas on streaming right now? Mainly it’s because everyone’s trying to make something as cool as Slow Horses, a mix of deadpan British comedy and old-school espionage thrills. Gary Oldman is disgustingly good as Jackson Lamb, the boss of a gang of MI5 rejects who find themselves wrapped up in awfully high-stakes missions.

Wolfs

Clooney! Pitt! The old Ocean’s Eleven muckers are reunited for a drama about “fixers”, the men you call when you need help but can’t ask the police. George and Brad play two fixers who prefer to work alone but are called to the same job - a body in a hotel room - and must then become a team. The star power of the two leads is irresistible.

Shrinking

Harrison Ford’s comic timing has never been in question, but his ability to make us laugh is given full rein here as Paul, mentor of Jason Segel’s widowed therapist character, Jimmy. As Jimmy’s loved ones help him through his loss, a fantastically funny ensemble piece develops about pals looking out for each other and telling each other some hard home truths.

Napoleon

Director Ridley Scott in historical epic mode, teamed with Joaquin Phoenix as lead actor? That combination tells you Napoleon will be an intense ride, and it delivers, charting the French general’s rise to power and his relationship with his wife Joséphine (Vanessa Kirby). It’s spectacular but, in its portrayal of the military man’s eccentricities, naughtily entertaining too.

Often seen as a barometer for who is going to win the Oscars and Emmys, the Screen Actors Guild Awards are unique in being voted for purely by actors. So which films and TV shows won at the ceremony in Los Angeles on 23 February, and which of the nominees do you need to see as well? We’ve got you covered with our picks of the night below - then be sure to check out the nominations in full to find out where to stream them.

Best Cast in a Motion Picture 

Other shortlisted movies might have caused more excitement among audiences, but for the SAG juries, the sheer class of Conclave was enough for it to win. You can see why: no film with Ralph Fiennes, Stanley Tucci, John Lithgow and Isabella Rossellini is going to be less than excellent.

Our honorable mention nominee: Wicked was the most overlooked movie of the whole night, especially in a category rewarding ensemble casts - it had at least four outstanding performances.

Best Ensemble in a Drama Series 

Shogun was the big TV winner on the night, taking home this prize as well as the big telly acting awards. It was indeed a fine achievement, turning a doorstop of a book into a gripping drama that treated its audience with respect by assuming they could keep up with subtitled dialogue and the details of the feudal system in medieval Japan. 

Our honorable mention nominee: Slow Horses, which goes from strength to strength, and this time around delivered perhaps both its funniest and its most exciting spy adventure yet.

Best Ensemble in a Comedy Series 

A wide-open category was won by Only Murders in the Building, the New York-set detective caper that has consistently added big names to its cast since it began, although Steve Martin, Martin Short and Selena Gomez remain its big stars. Once again, the excellent The Bear was nominated for a comedy award despite not being a comedy, which might be why it lost. 

Our honorable mention nominee: Shrinking, which improved on an already very funny and touching first season with a second run that really got to know the friends and family of widowed LA therapist Jimmy, played by Jason Segel.

Best Actors in a Leading Role  

Two very solid winners here in Timothée Chalamet, widely acclaimed for his immersive lead role in the story of Bob Dylan going electric, A Complete Unknown; and Demi Moore, who returned from near-obscurity to become a huge late-career success with outrageous body horror The Substance.

Our honorable mention nominees: Daniel Craig might have won in a different year for his bold performance in Queer, while if the amount of online acclaim was what mattered, there would only have been one winning actress and that’s Cynthia Erivo in Wicked.

Best Actors in a Supporting Role 

Zoe Saldana edged it for the musical Emilia Perez, which has had an up-and-down awards campaign but still managed to nab one of the major categories here. Kieran Culkin, meanwhile, is a classic example of a “supporting actor” who had the advantage of loads of screen time: he’s very much a co-lead in A Real Pain.

Our honorable mention nominees: it has to be the Wicked duo Ariana Grande and Jonathan Bailey, who were a huge part of that film’s success, through a mixture of talent, pizazz and sheer likeability.

Best Actors in a Drama Series 

Here’s how much the SAG panels adored Shogun: the Japan-set historical drama won both prizes here, with Anna Sawai particularly fine as conflicted translator Toda Mariko. Hiroyuki Sanada’s win, in what could have been a relatively impenetrable part as the warlord Yoshii Toranaga, is perhaps even more impressive.

Our honorable mention nominees: Kathy Bates is terrific in Matlock, a legal drama that is more than it seems, while Gary Oldman continues to stink the place out, in a good way, as the filthy spy chief Jackson Lamb in Slow Horses.

Best Actors in a Comedy Series 

Hurrah for the more mature comedy performers who showed younger acting generations how it’s done this year: Jean Smart very deservedly won for her sizzling turn as a waspish, washed-up comedian in Hacks, while everything Martin Short says and does in funny - in life, and when he’s acting in Only Murders in the Building.

Our honorable mention nominees: SAG awards host Kristin Bell was perhaps unfortunate to come up against such a strong contender in Smart, because Bell’s performance in pitch-perfect romcom Nobody Wants This was superb - as was that of her co-star Adam Brody.

Best Actors in a Limited Series 

Two unstoppable winners here in the form of Jessica Gunning, a breakout star on the back of terrifying stalker comedy/drama Baby Reindeer, and Colin Farrell, whose physical transformation to play the title role in The Penguin was the most profound on-screen image overhaul of 2024.

Our honorable mention nominees: Cate Blanchett and Kevin Kline were both excellent in the somewhat underrated Disclaimer, a clever twin-timeline drama about a documentary film-maker (Blanchett) whose own life becomes news when a grieving father (Kline) publishes a novel that appears to be about her.

If you love following the Oscars each year, you’ll know that the Academy is usually a really effective barometer for what’s good and what’s not so good. But, they sometimes get things very wrong, so we’ve put together a list of the 10 biggest Oscar snubs of all time, and added details of where to watch them.

We absolutely love most of the Oscar nominated films for 2025, but as always, there’s some films the Academy neglected this year – Sing Sing deserved far more attention, and Challengers was robbed!

It’s going to be fascinating seeing which film becomes the latest Best Picture winner at the Oscars this year, but let’s take a moment to remember all of those special films through the years that were wrongly rejected by the Academy. Here’s the biggest Oscar snubs of all time, and streaming options for them all.

Nightcrawler

We were never expecting Nightcrawler to scoop a bunch of awards or anything. The grimy thriller was up against it with the likes of Birdman, The Grand Budapest Hotel, and Whiplash dominating the 87th Academy Awards, but there is one category that it was notably absent from. 

Seriously, how did Jake Gyllenhaal not get a nomination for his unhinged portrayal of Lou Bloom? The fact this captivating depiction of a man possessed by his pursuit of infamy was ignored is a heinous crime; so much so that Lou Bloom would probably be desperate to cover the story himself if he had the chance.

Dune

It would be unfair to claim that the Oscars forgot about Dune. The sci-fi epic was nominated for ten awards in 2022, winning six of them, but they were all in the technical categories. Yes, Dune is a technical marvel in many ways, but it’s so much more than that, and that’s largely thanks to the incredible direction from modern master, Denis Villeneuve.

So, the fact that the man at the helm for this one didn’t get a nomination, despite his film racking up so many nominations elsewhere just feels odd. Even more so, when you consider that he’s been spurned again this year for Dune: Part Two.

Arrival

Thankfully, Denis was nominated for his directing back in 2017 for the magnificent Arrival. The poetic sci-fi movie picked up eight nominations in total, but somehow only took home one award, for Best Sound Editing. But, what would Arrival be were it not for the stellar work in front of the camera from Amy Adams?

The whole film sinks or swims based on Adams’ portrayal of Dr. Louise Banks, and she imbues the movie with so much heart and emotional conflict that it becomes something transcendental, far deeper than a simple alien time travel story. The Academy instead opted to nominate Meryl Streep and Isabelle Huppert, for Florence Foster Jenkins and Elle, respectively. Both brilliant actors doing fine work, but Adams should have won the whole thing never mind being nominated.

Rear Window

The fact that Alfred Hitchcock never won an Oscar – apart from his consolation prize of the Irving G. Thalberg Memorial Award in 1968 – is simply ludicrous. The master of suspense is heralded as one of the greatest ever filmmakers and yet he was only nominated for Best Director five times, losing them all.

We could have picked any one of his works to label as a huge snub, but Rear Window is perhaps his finest film of all time and it deserved so much better. The riveting 1954 classic picked up just four nominations at the time, including one for Hitch himself, but it went home empty handed on the night.

2001: A Space Odyssey

If you thought Hitchcock’s catalogue of snubs was bad, spare a thought for the late, great Stanley Kubrick. The famed director, who mastered every genre going throughout his illustrious career, was never given any love by the Academy. Though he was nominated as Best Director for Dr. Strangelove, 2001: A Space Odyssey, A Clockwork Orange, and Barry Lyndon, he was ignored every time.

It is Space Odyssey that feels the most egregious of them all, though. For a film as influential and astounding as this to win just one Oscar – for visual effects – is a major miscarriage of justice. It’s the greatest sci-fi movie of all time, and it’s not even close!

Do the Right Thing

The Academy clearly didn’t pay attention to the title of this searing Spike Lee joint, because they most certainly did not do the right thing at all in 1990. The fact that Do the Right Thing didn’t even pick up a Best Picture nomination, in the same year that Driving Miss Daisy infamously won the award, just feels wrong on so many levels. Indeed, the two nominations for Best Screenplay and Best Support Actor (Danny Aiello) are more of a kick in the teeth than a justified consolation prize.

Do the Right Thing is bursting with life, tension, humour, and hatred. It’s both an indictment of the prejudices which plague our world, and a celebration of the differences between the rich cultures in our society. It’s a vitally important piece of work, regardless of how many Oscars it was snubbed for.

La La Land

Yes, La La Land won lots of awards – six, to be precise, including a Best Director gong for Damien Chazelle. Yes, its 14 nominations are a fantastic achievement, too. And yes, Moonlight was a very worthy winner in the end, but the way La La Land lost the big prize on the night still stings.

When Faye Dunaway called out La La Land as the Best Picture winner in 2017, no one batted an eye, because it was exactly what this magical musical deserved. Chazelle’s love letter to Hollywood is gorgeous to look at, sublime to listen to, and is achingly romantic in all the best ways.

Hereditary

We know the Academy doesn’t really like the horror genre, but its rejection of some performances over the last decade have just been plain terrifying. Most notably, how did Toni Collette not get a nomination for her brutal and brilliant performance in Ari Aster’s breakout hit, Hereditary?

To be honest, Colette should have won the award for her screaming talents alone. But, the way her character, Annie Graham, evolves in this spine-chilling story from a troubled woman, to a heartbroken mother, into a veritable monster, is so engrossing and so unsettling, and perfectly showcases her immense range as an actor.

Brokeback Mountain

Throughout the years there have been some very prominent shock wins in the Best Picture category. We mentioned Driving Miss Daisy earlier, and you can add the likes of Shakespeare in Love and The Green Book to that list, too. However, when Crash took home the top prize in 2006, the whole of Hollywood’s collective jaw dropped, and not in a good way.

That’s because the Paul Haggis movie beat the massive favourite on the night, Brokeback Mountain. Ang Lee’s painful love story is so intimate and intricately made, and it deserved the world. Instead, all it got was three Oscars, including Best Director, which almost makes the Best Picture snub even more criminal.

Citizen Kane

Citizen Kane is arguably the best film of all time, and that’s not a subjective opinion; there are countless lists that have the Orson Welles classic sitting at the top of the pile, and critical consensus hails the 1941 movie as a bona fide masterpiece. From its delightfully simple yet compelling story, to the range of different technical feats Welles manages to achieve in this one picture, Citizen Kane will live long as a cornerstone of cinematic history.

It’s funny, then, that this revered artefact wasn’t even considered the best film of the year at the time, losing out on the Best Picture award to How Green Was My Valley. Still, would you rather take one night of glory or a lifetime of admiration? Welles probably wanted both, to be fair.

Honourable mentions

• Saving Private Ryan
• It’s a Wonderful Life
• 12 Angry Men
• The Exorcist
• Dr Strangelove

• Star Wars: A New Hope

Where to watch the movies that received the biggest Oscar snubs streaming online

Check out the list below for where to watch all these incredible movies that the Oscars snubbed  on streaming services like Netflix, Amazon Prime Video and more!

The biggest night in the movie calendar is almost upon us. So as we prepare for the 97th Academy Awards, JustWatch has sifted through the history of the ceremony to come up with the 20 best movies to win Best Picture at the Oscars, and we can tell you where to watch them, too.

Since 1929, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences has been the go-to awards body for separating the good (and the not so good) from the great. The Oscars, as they are more commonly known, offers film fans and film stars the chance to reflect on the best work of the past year, with the Best Picture award being the most coveted prize of all.

This year, the likes of Anora, Conclave, The Brutalist, and The Substance are fighting it out for the big awards as the leading nominees at the 2025 Oscars. But, we’re here to look back in time and determine the best Best Picture winner ever.

Rocky

Who would ever have thought that a scrappy little film about an amateur boxer would make it all the way to the Oscars, let alone scoop the Best Picture award? Just like its titular character, Rocky defied all the odds in 1977, picking up a massive ten nominations, winning in the Best Picture, Best Director, and Best Editing categories.

Sylvester Stallone’s script is far from your paint-by-the-numbers sports story; Rocky is a tale steeped in heart and humour, and while the action in the ring is brilliant, it’s the gritty realism on the streets of Philadelphia that truly makes Rocky fly.

Moonlight

A24 movies are expected to succeed these days, but back in 2016, Moonlight gave the studio its first real breakthrough moment. The Barry Jenkins flick didn’t just please the indie crowd, it reached the masses, and the 2017 Academy Awards helped cement it into film folklore after the infamous (but very entertaining) La La Land mix-up.

Nominated for eight Oscars and winning Best Adapted Screenplay, Best Actor (Mahershala Ali), and Best Picture, Moonlight was justly rewarded for its harrowing and heartfelt depiction of sexuality, adolescence, and finding family when you need them the most, whether they are blood relatives or not.

The Departed

Should Martin Scorsese have more Oscars on his mantlepiece? Yes, probably. But, with The Departed, the legendary filmmaker was given his flowers (and a lovely, little gold statue) at the 2007 Academy Awards, as were the rest of the team involved. The crime-thriller won in four of its five nominated categories, including Best Director, Best Adapted Screenplay, and Best Editing.

You could say that, as a remake of the Hong Kong film series, Infernal Affairs, Scorsese was already working with golden material. But, what the master filmmaker does with that story, and the performances he gets out of his incredible ensemble cast, is nothing short of magic.

The Silence of the Lambs

It is so rare to see horrors and dark, psychological thrillers getting love from the Academy, but The Silence of the Lambs was simply too good to ignore back in 1992. Not only did this chilling film pick up the Best Picture award, it also won for Best Actor and Actress (Anthony Hopkins and Jodie Foster), Best Director (Jonathan Demme), and Best Adapted Screenplay.

That makes The Silence of the Lambs one of only three movies to win the so-called ‘big five’ at the Academy Awards, with One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest and It Happened One Night also achieving that very special feat.

Parasite

There has perhaps never been a more popular and beloved Best Picture winner than Bong Joon-ho’s Parasite back in 2020. The film had earned mass praise from critics and audiences alike upon its release for its twisted and darkly comic story of class conflict, but it was still not expected to be such a big hit at the Oscars.

Nominated in six categories, and winning four including Best Director, Best Original Screenplay, and Best International Feature, Parasite would go on to make history by becoming the first ever film not in the English language to win Best Picture at the Academy Awards.

The Godfather

When you think of the most revered films of all time – like The Shawshank Redemption, Citizen Kane, and 2001: A Space Odyssey – the only one that can say it actually won the top prize is The Godfather. Francis Ford Coppola’s epic mafia masterpiece was nominated in a massive 11 categories, but took home only three awards: Best Picture, Best Actor (Marlon Brando), and Best Adapted Screenplay.

The Godfather is as violent as it is poetic, a rich tale of how powerful one man and one family can become, and the price that has to be paid to achieve such power. It’s a gorgeous, enthralling picture, and fully deserving of the decades of praise it has received.

Amadeus

Another film to receive 11 nominations is Milos Forman’s quirky, comical Amadeus, a film detailing the envy-driven vendetta of composer Antonio Salieri against his rival, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.

Amadeus won a whopping eight awards on the night, including big prizes like Best Director and Best Actor (F. Murray Abraham), and also the more technical awards like Best Costume Design and Best Sound. It’s a triumph in all aspects of filmmaking, and though it boasts a huge 180-minute runtime, Amadeus is one of those special movies that you cannot help but to want to spend even more time in its world.

Lawrence of Arabia

Speaking of technical achievements, Lawrence of Arabia is perhaps the most stunning, inch-perfect film not just of its period, but of all time. It earned ten nominations back in 1963, and managed to bring home seven of those awards, including Best Picture, Best Director, Best Cinematography, and Best Music.

Those last two are particularly justified, with Lawrence of Arabia being a veritable delight for the eyes and ears. The vistas in this sprawling journey across the Arabian desert are truly breathtaking, while the music of Maurice Jarre still stands as one of the finest scores to ever accompany the silver screen.

The Sound of Music

Somehow, ten nominations still doesn’t quite feel like enough for The Sound of Music. Nor does the fact it only won in 50% of those categories. No, this is a film which deserved every award going, and one that has stood the test of time to this day as one of the most splendid musicals ever made.

But, what appears to be a charming and sweet musical on paper, actually turns out to be a fascinating depiction of defiance in the face of Nazism. It’s also a film that delivers some of the most astounding frames ever put to the screen, and it’s a travesty that The Sound of Music failed to win in the cinematography and art direction categories at the time – in fairness, losing out to the equally sublime Doctor Zhivago is not the worst snub imaginable.

Oppenheimer

The big winner at the 2024 Oscars ceremony was Christopher Nolan’s Oppenheimer, and rightly so. This engrossing biopic picked up a jaw-dropping 13 nominations, winning seven of the categories including Best Director, Best Lead Actor and Support Actor (Cillian Murphy and Robert Downey Jr.), Best Cinematography, and Best Editing. Frankly, it could and should have won all 13.

The exploration of the father of the atomic bomb, J. Robert Oppenheimer, saw Nolan excel himself – which is an extraordinary feat in itself – as he crafted an intricate and intimate retelling of one of the most pivotal periods of human history. It’s a film imbued with flair and creativity, while Cillian Murphy’s portrayal of the man at the heart of it all is simply spellbinding.

Honourable mentions

• Titanic
• The Hurt Locker
• The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King
• The French Connection
• The Apartment
• It Happened One Night
• Gone with the Wind
• Everything Everywhere All at Once
• Schindler’s List

Where to watch the greatest movies to win Best Picture online

Check out the list below on where to watch all these titles streaming on services like Netflix, Amazon Prime Video and more!

He’s one of the most beloved actors of his generation, and has taken on some of the most iconic roles in the history of cinema, but there’s more to this man than franchise work. So, we’ve compiled a list of the best Harrison Ford movies, ranked them, and can tell you where to watch them online, too.

Let’s be honest, the man is a living legend. He’s Indiana Jones. He’s Han Solo. He’s Rick Deckard. He’s even a big, red, angry Hulk in Captain America: Brave New World – but we’re not here to talk about that.

No, we only want the best of the best at JustWatch, and luckily, Harrison Ford has put together a brilliant body of work over the years. So, here’s his top ten, plus five honourable mentions that we simply couldn’t ignore.

10. Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade

Of the original trilogy, you’re likely to see the general consensus swing away from Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, but it’s criminally underrated. The highlight of this threequel is Sean Connery’s scene-stealing turn as Indy’s dad, Henry Jones Sr. The James Bond actor brings all his natural charm and is clearly having so much fun with the role, and it rubs off on Harrison Ford, too.

While the first two movies in the franchise are pure adventure-thrillers, this is almost more of a buddy-cop comedy, and the playful tone works perfectly. But, there’s still a strong emotional undercurrent to this one, as father and son reconnect.

9. Patriot Games

Harrison Ford took on another high-profile role when he stepped into Alec Baldwin’s shoes to become Jack Ryan. Patriot Games is a taut thriller filled with epic action, shocking twists and turns, and some killer one-liners from Ford, and it’s all packaged up in a neat sub-two hour story, which is always a bonus.

As Ryan intervenes in an IRA assassination plot, he and his family become the target of a deadly revenge mission. But, does he take it lying down? No, of course he doesn’t. With Ford’s effortless gravitas and the gritty determination of Tom Clancy’s character, Patriot Games becomes yet another classic heroic display to add to the actor’s catalogue.

8. Star Wars Episode VII: The Force Awakens

Has there ever been a more exciting time than that brief period of unbridled joy leading up to the release of The Force Awakens? After a decade of no Star Wars movies at all, and a huge 32 years since the last outing for the original trio of Luke Skywalker, Princess Leia, and Han Solo, the tease of their return in this new trilogy opener was immense.

Harrison Ford could easily have phoned in his reprise as Han Solo, but he gave it his everything, and ended up delivering one of his most nuanced and poignant performances of all time.

7. Blade Runner

There are many who would proclaim Blade Runner to be the ultimate sci-fi movie, or at the very least, a genre-defining film of its time. And frankly, they’d be correct. From the neon-soaked visuals to the cerebral themes at play in Ridley Scott’s epic ‘80s thriller, it’s hard not to be in awe of this iconic picture.

Ford once again bagged a timeless role as Rick Deckard, the suave, ruthless replicant hunter. But, as the mystery at the heart of this story unravels, Deckard’s machinations do, too, and it’s fascinating to watch it all unfold as he questions everything he believed to be true.

6. The Fugitive

Harrison Ford’s trademark run – second only to Tom Cruise’s impressive sprint – is at its very best in 1993’s The Fugitive. When Richard Kimble (Ford) is wrongly accused of murdering his wife, he must flee the authorities hunting him and find a way to prove his innocence before the relentless Samuel Gerard (Tommy Lee Jones) puts him away for life.

The Fugitive harks back to a more ambitious and adventurous period of filmmaking, where stunts and huge set-pieces were done for real, rather than relying on green screens and digital effects. It’s a raw, rugged thriller, and is Ford’s finest work as a leading man away from the big franchises.

5. The Conversation

OK, look, Harrison Ford can’t always be the main man in every film he does, and it just so happens that in The Conversation, Gene Hackman does a rather good job of leading the line. But, Ford is there, and his role is a pretty significant one all the same. In fact, say it quietly, but we believe he stole the show a little bit in this Francis Ford Coppola flick.

Whether that’s true or not, there’s no denying that The Conversation is an understated masterpiece of the thriller genre. It’s not overly violent, loud, or bombastic, but it’s dripping with tension throughout, and will have you on the edge of your seat, listening just as intently as Harry Caul.

4. Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom

While The Last Crusade is uber-fun and plucky, Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom carries a far greater sense of dread and is actually a pretty heavy, traumatic experience for younger viewers who were following Indy’s adventures at the time. Seriously, that melting face and Mola Ram ripping out that guy’s heart were enough to scar an entire generation (in a good way).

In one of the finest movie trilogies of all time, The Temple of Doom stands out as the strongest of the trio, thanks to its enthralling, delightfully dark story, and the fact that Ford had well and truly embraced the titular role by that point.

3. Apocalypse Now

This one almost feels like cheating, but we couldn’t ignore the fact that Apocalypse Now is one of the greatest movies ever made, and Harrison Ford is technically a part of it. Yes, it may be a fleeting appearance at the start of the epic war movie, but Ford’s role as Colonel Lucas is an important one, as he is the man to assign Captain Willard (Martin Sheen) his daunting mission.

What can we say about Apocalypse Now that hasn’t been said already? It’s a brutal, visceral depiction of the horrors of war, and is one of the most important, impactful, and impressive films of its kind.

2. Blade Runner 2049

Controversial, perhaps, but Blade Runner 2049 is actually superior to its predecessor. While Ridley Scott’s original movie deserves respect for what it achieved and how it paved the way for so many others to follow, Denis Villeneuve’s legacy sequel deserves something far greater: reverence.

The follow-up improves on the original in just about every single way. Blade Runner 2049 not only looks impeccable, it’s also got a far more coherent narrative, without sacrificing any of the complexities and ambiguities of Scott’s effort. It’s mighty impressive that this film is not only spectacular in its own right, but actually manages to elevate its predecessor, too.

1. Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back

It had to be, didn’t it? When Star Wars is at its best – as it is with The Empire Strikes Back – there is simply nothing more exhilarating and awe-inspiring than this franchise. The core characters may be separated for most of this sequel, but that only serves to showcase just how big George Lucas’ galaxy is, and it allows each of our heroes to prove their individual merit, too.

While The Empire Strikes Back will forever be known for delivering one of the greatest plot twists of all time, there’s a special place in our heart for another legendary moment in this film. We love Han Solo. And guess, what? He knows.

Where to watch the best Harrison Ford movies streaming online

Check out the list below on where to watch all these Harrison Ford movies streaming on services like Netflix, Paramount Plus, Amazon Prime Video and more.

Since the Academy Award category for Visual Effects was first established in the 1960s, the winners have been highly anticipated as they represent the most exciting and groundbreaking technologies in filmmaking of the time. Indeed, looking at a list of past winners, it is jawdropping to see the leaps and bounds visual effects have made over the decades. 

While the task of narrowing down the top 10 of all the past winners is near impossible, this list attempts to give an overview of the achievements in the field, highlight some of the effects that lay the groundwork for technologies we use now, and celebrate the films that were ahead of their time and continue wow filmmakers and audiences to this day. Check out these 10 movies that won an Oscar for Visual Effects and find out where you can stream them below!

2001: A Space Odyssey (1968)

Few films have impacted the future of cinema as much as Stanley Kubrick’s seminal 1968 sci-fi classic 2001: A Space Odyssey. With astonishing visual sequences like the opening ‘Dawn of Man’ and the ‘Star Gate’ sequence, Kubrick and his special effects supervisor Douglas Trumbull developed innovative techniques to achieve visuals that are still considered impressive to this day. In a time before CGI, Kubrick and Trumbull showed how far you can go with practical effects when you have incredible artistic skill, genius, craftsmanship, and a large budget at your disposal.

Alien (1979)

While some might argue that Aliens, the sequel to Ridley Scott’s 1979 masterpiece, had even better effects and also won the Academy Award, the first Alien did the hard work of establishing the aesthetic from the start. From the design of the Nostromo ship by lead designer HR Giger, to the incredible costumes and puppets created by Carlo Rambaldi — alongside work by effects advisors Brian Johnson, Nick Allder and Denys Ayling — Alien brought the genre of sci-fi to a whole new level both thematically and visually.

The Empire Strikes Back (1980)

From miniature models to puppet Tauntauns and holograms, The Empire Strikes Back is a masterclass in practical effects techniques. The sheer extent of the work involved in bringing George Lucas’s Star Wars universe to life in the original films — from concept to execution — is truly breathtaking. The Death Star, AT-ATs, TIE-fighters, and the Millennium Falcon were all painstakingly designed by hand — not to mention the costumes for characters like Jabba the Hutt, Chewbacca, C-3PO, R2-D2, and Yoda. The first Star Wars also won the Oscar, as did Return of the Jedi, but The Empire Strikes Back truly has it all — except, sadly, the Ewoks. Hats are eternally off to the special effects team, including Joe Johnston (visual effects art director for miniature and optical effects), Richard Edlund (special visual effects co-supervisor), and Dennis Muren (director of photography for miniature and optical effects) for their creativity, craftsmanship, and dedication.

Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom (1984)

Dennis Muren, who was also on the special effects team for The Empire Strikes Back, lent his talents as visual effects supervisor to Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom. From the high-speed chases through Hong Kong to the human sacrifice scene in the temple itself, the scope alone of the visual effects for the film is an incredible achievement. 

Jurassic Park (1993)

When you picture a dinosaur in your head, chances are that you’re envisioning one of the creatures from Jurassic Park. From the design of the park itself to the models for the dinosaurs, everything had to be conceptualised for the first time for Jurassic Park. The textures of the dinosaurs’ hides, their height, and their speed all had to be conjured up using paleontological information from the time and more than a healthy dose of fantasy for some extra entertainment flare. While we may now know that many of these creatures were actually covered in feathers, there’s no doubt that the scaly visuals from Jurassic Park remain firmly embedded in our imaginations.

Independence Day (1996)

Who doesn’t have the image of the White House being blown to bits by an alien ship engrained somewhere in their minds? The iconic visuals from Independence Day were designed by Volker Engel and his team, who used a combination of miniature models and CG to create anything from the dogfights to the Mother Ship explosion.

Titanic (1997)

Mark Lasoff, the visual effect supervisor for Titanic, created a series of illusions that made the sinking of that fated ship into a realistic and devastating drama. Using a combination of miniatures, digital images, motion capture, and practical effects the visual effects team were able to realistically portray the ship’s collision with the iceberg and its descent into freezing waters. While the sinking alone was impressive, the set design, costumes, and dedication to accurately depicting the time makes the film a wonder to watch — even by today’s standards.

The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King (2003)

The Lord of the Rings films were a huge feat in visual effects innovations, and by the time the Return of the King was released they had been even more refined. The Lord of the Rings’ visual effects studio, Weta Digital, popularised the use of some groundbreaking technologies, including the use of motion-capture using a live actor. Most famously, Andy Serkis’ portrayal of Gollum resulted in many behind-the-scenes images of him in a skin-tight lycra suit, covered in little dots, and was subject to much deliberation about if his performance could be nominated for an Oscar when he did not technically appear on screen.

Avatar (2009)

Weta — the company in charge of the visual effects in Avatar — built off of their innovations in making the Lord of the Rings films to take the art of real-life motion capture and CGI to a whole new level that had never been seen before. The level of detail, not to mention the scale of the production, made Avatar an impressive achievement for the time. While the technologies used in Avatar are now somewhat outdated, they have only been improved, and continue to be improved in the recent and future Avatar sequels like The Way of Water.

Dune (2021)

Director Denis Villeneuve worked alongside VFX supervisor Paul Lambert, and DNEG VFX supervisors Tristan Myles and Brian Connor to create the hyper-realistic, larger than life world of Dune. Bringing Frank Herbert’s novels to life meant introducing wide expanses of desert landscape populated by giant worms — not to mention the location designs and the creation of the Ornithopters (the dragonfly-like aircraft) — all of which came together to create a flawless, highly immersive world.

Honourable Mentions

With the Visual Effects category first debuting at the 36th Academy Awards in 1964, the list of films that have won the prize is extensive and impressive. Some of those films deserving a further shoutout include Cleopatra, Mary Poppins, King Kong, Superman, E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial, Forrest Gump, Babe, Gladiator, Inception, Interstellar, and Blade Runner 2049, amongst others.

Anthony Mackie is one of the best known actors in the current Marvel Cinematic Universe. Mackie originally played the superhero Falcon in the MCU, but took up the mantle of Captain America from Chris Evans in the aftermath of Avengers: Endgame. Mackie made his big-screen debut as Cap in Captain America: Brave New World, where he finds himself at the centre of an international incident involving the President of the United States.

But while Mackie may be most recognised as Falcon and now Captain America, he has also played some great roles in anything from war dramas like The Hurt Locker to buddy comedies like Pain and Gain. Check out 10 of Anthony Mackie’s best performances in movies, and find out where you can stream them in the United Kingdom below!

8 Mile

In rapper Eminem’s 2002 biopic 8 Mile, Mackie plays the leader of the Free World gang, Papa Doc (aka Clarence). In the film, Papa Doc and his gang go after Jimmy, beating him up the night before the big rap battle. But the day after, Jimmy absolutely destroys them on stage — and Mackie plays poor Clarence like a pro.

The Hurt Locker

Kathryn Bigelow’s 2008 Best Picture winner sees Mackie star alongside Jeremy Renner as Sergeant JT Sanborn. The two are part of a US military squad defusing bombs during the Iraq War, and the film follows them through their experiences there, including traumatic combat situations that highlight the horror of war.

Captain America: The Winter Soldier

Mackie was first introduced into the MCU as Sam Wilson (aka Falcon) in The Winter Soldier. At the time, Chris Evans was still in the role of Captain America, but the film introduced one of Sam’s Cap’s closest buddies, Bucky Barns (aka The Winter Soldier). While Mackie was part of an ensemble cast with more focus on Evan’s Cap, he was still able to establish Sam as a formidable member of the team while getting in some good banter with the other Avengers.

The Adjustment Bureau

In The Adjustment Bureau, Matt Damon stars as David, an up-and-coming politician who stumbles onto an existential secret: that an organisation known as the ‘Adjustment Bureau’ is actually in charge of human free will. Mackie plays one of the Bureau's agents who becomes David’s ‘caseworker’ and ultimately an ally in establishing his own destiny.

Captain America: Brave New World

In his big-screen debut in the role, Mackie takes up the shield of Captain America. He was first introduced into the role in the MCU television series The Falcon and The Winter Soldier. In Brave New World, Mackie’s Cap finds himself in the middle of an international incident, and must save the day multiple times with the help of some old and new allies.

Point Blank

Mackie is a master at playing action roles using a mix of humour and more than a little blood. In Point Black, he plays Paul, an ER nurse who finds himself teaming up with a dangerous criminal in his care (played by Frank Grillo) in order to get his pregnant wife back after she is kidnapped by a notorious gang.

Triple 9

In Triple 9, Mackie plays a corrupt Atlanta police officer, Marcus, who is paired with a new partner, Chris, played by Casey Affleck. Marcus is involved in a plan to steal information from the Department of Homeland Security, and plans to sacrifice Chris to carry out the plan. Mackie gives an excellent performance in Triple 9, giving Marcus a three-dimensionality that makes it hard to dislike him.

Synchronic

In this leading role, Mackie plays Steve, a paramedic alongside Jamie Dornan’s Dennis. When they keep coming across the same gruesome type of accident, at first they think nothing of it. But when Dennis’ daughter goes missing, they realise there is a drug that allows the user to cross dimensions tying everything together in a mindbending thriller.

Pain and Gain

In this action comedy, Mackie plays a body builder, Noel, alongside Mark Wahlberg’s Daniel and The Rock’s Paul. In this film based on a true story, Daniel plots to achieve the American Dream via extortion, and recruits gym buddies Daniel and Paul together to help him kidnap a wealthy member of their gym.

Detroit

Teaming up once more with director Kathryn Bigelow, Mackie plays Karl Greene, a Vietnam veteran. The film tells the true story of the 1967 Detroit riots that culminated in the Algiers Motel incident in which several civilians were killed by police officers.

The third season of HBO’s masterpiece series The White Lotus was released on February 16, 2025, kicking off a new season of dysfunctional dynamics between the wealthy guests, resort workers, and the promise of murder — this time at a luxury resort in Thailand. Mike White’s series has only grown in popularity, succeeding at entertaining while highlighting the warped realities of the ultra rich and sparing no one from criticism.

If you’re looking for a film or series to pass the time between The White Lotus episodes, you’ve come to the right place. Check out these 10 films and TV shows like The White Lotus, and find out where you can stream them all below!

The Menu (film)

If you want a darkly satirical drama that slices and dices the ultra rich in a similar way to The White Lotus, look no further than The Menu. Mark Mylod directs this black comedy horror that follows a group of wealthy couples and families who travel to a private island to sample an exclusive menu created by an elite chef. The ensemble cast features Ralph Fiennes, Anya Taylor-Joy, Nicholas Hoult, John Leguizamo, and others, who all play their parts with exquisite execution in this merciless ride.

Nine Perfect Strangers (TV series)

Nine strangers selected to participate in a wellness retreat at a resort run by a mysterious Russian guru healer? Sign me up! While this drama series takes a more serious tone than The White Lotus, the parallels are undeniable — including critiques of new-age spirituality, class divides, and personal drama unfolding in a dazzlingly luxurious setting.

The Resort (TV series)

If you’re looking for a series like The White Lotus that includes a murder mystery at an idyllic resort, the aptly titled The Resort is for you. The Resort takes place in Mexico, where a couple are celebrating their 10th anniversary. While there, they discover a cell phone that belonged to one of two people who went missing there 15 years prior. If you’re looking for a series that leans into the whodunit side of The White Lotus, make sure you check out The Resort.

Triangle of Sadness (film)

If you’re looking for a film with biting social commentary and plotlines that will give you whiplash from the turns they take, do not miss Triangle of Sadness. Swedish director Ruben Östlund’s first English language film won the Palme d'Or at Cannes in 2022 and was nominated for three Academy Awards, including Best Picture. The film takes place in three parts, and follows the story of a young celebrity couple on a cruise who, after a storm sinks their ship, wind up stranded with the other passengers on a seemingly deserted island and must adapt to a new social hierarchy for survival.

Parasite (film)

Parasite won the Palme d’Ore at the 2019 Cannes Film Festival, and Best Picture at the 2020 Academy Wards. The success rocketed director Bong Joon-ho to fame and ushered in an era of class war satire whose legacy The White Lotus series continues to great effect. Parasite is the epitome of a black comedy thriller. Its plot surrounds the poor Kim family, who scheme their way into the lives of the wealthy Parks.

Knives Out (film)

If you’re looking for a movie featuring the same class satire themes as The White Lotus with a murder at its centre, make sure you check out Knives Out (and its sequels on Netflix)! Director Rian Johnson helms this raucous detective drama complete with an ensemble cast including Daniel Craig, Chris Evans, Ana de Armas, Jamie Lee Curtis, Michael Shannon, LaKeith Stanfield, and others. Craig plays Benoit Blanc, a famed private detective hired to investigate the death of a well-known author in a locked-door mystery.

The Perfect Couple (TV series)

This limited series starring Nicole Kidman, Liev Schreiber, Eve Hewson, and Dakota Fanning is a feast for anyone who loves the dysfunctional family aspects — not to mention the murder mystery — of the White Lotus series. Greer Garrison Winbury (Kidman) is a successful author and head of one of the wealthiest families on the island of Nantucket. Greer’s son is scheduled to wed his middle-class financée Amelia (Eve Hewson) at their estate, but everything is thrown off course when the maid of honour’s body washes up on shore.

Succession (TV series)

While Succession doesn’t share the same ‘dysfunctional rich people at a luxury resort where at least one person winds up dead’ structure with The White Lotus, its focus is exclusively on the obscenely wealthy, their foibles, greed, and personal dramas. The series stars Brian Cox, Kieran Culkin, Alan Ruck, Jeremy Strong, and Sarah Snook, among others as members of the Roy family. Cox’s Logan Roy is in decline, and decisions must be made about who will succeed him as the head of the global media and entertainment conglomerate Waystar RoyCo. 

Big Little Lies (TV series)

If you want to dive into the secret lives of five women living in a wealthy area of Monterey, California, don’t miss Big Little Lies. Like The White Lotus, a murder takes place at the very start of the series — and the victim and killer are revealed only at the end. The series follows the lives of the five women leading up to the murder, showing how their lives intertwine as they rely on and compete with each other. Big Little Lies features an all-star cast, including Reese Witherspoon, Nicole Kidman, Laura Dern, Shailene Woodley, Zoë Kravitz, Adam Scott, and Alexander Skarsgård, among others.

Bad Sisters (TV series)

This Irish black comedy may not focus on a super wealthy family, but it does go all in on dysfunctional dynamics and murder. The series focuses on the five Garvey sisters, a tightknit lot who all live near one another in Dublin. When one of the sisters’ husbands, Jean Paul, is found dead, the sisters find themselves under investigation for potential murder. Served with time jumps between the past and present, Jean Paul’s true nature and the sisters’ determination to get rid of him is revealed.

The latest instalment in the Marvel Cinematic Universe finally sees Anthony Mackie’s Captain America make his debut on the big screen. As the new Cap takes up the shield to defend the world against a new threat, recurring characters and plot points from past MCU productions are guaranteed to emerge. Brave New World is the 35th film in the MCU, and takes place in the studio’s so-called Phase Five, which started in 2023 with Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania. But with such a long list of movies and spinoff TV shows in the MCU, if you haven’t seen them all, which ones are the most important to watch to know what’s going on in Captain America: Brave New World? 

Check out our list of every movie and TV series you should watch before seeing Captain America: Brave New World, and find out where you can stream them below!

Which movies and TV shows should I watch before Captain America: Brave New World?

With 34 movies before Brave New World making up the MCU — not to mention several spinoff TV series — it’s no wonder some audience members are worried they’ll miss out on something going into the theatre if they’re not prepared. While the context coming from all the previous MCU movies can be helpful, there are actually only two movies and one series you should watch before you see Brave New World. The big three to watch before you see Captain America: Brave New World are 2008’s The Incredible Hulk, 2021’s Eternals, and of course the MCU television series, The Falcon and the Winter Soldier.

The Incredible Hulk

2008’s The Incredible Hulk was a different time in the MCU. Edward Norton starred as Bruce Banner (aka The Hulk) — a title that was later transferred to Mark Ruffalo — going through the motions of becoming the Hulk and learning to master his rage. The film introduced cellular biologist Betty Ross (played by Liv Tyler) as Banner’s love interest and daughter to General Thaddeus Ross (aka Red Hulk). Tyler appears again in the same role in Brave New World, as does her father (now played by Harrison Ford), who is now the President of the United States. With both of their backstories playing a role in Brave New World, it’s worth watching The Incredible Hulk before seeing the latest instalment to have a better understanding of the characters’ motives. In addition, a certain Mr Blue who was first introduced in The Incredible Hulk also reappears in a key role in Brave New World.

Eternals

In the Eternals, a group of ten beings created by ‘Celestials’ known as the Eternals are tasked with bringing a new Celestial into being. The task will take up incredible amounts of energy resulting also in Earth’s destruction. When their leader, Cersei, decides to save Earth and stop the creation of the new Celestial in the middle, all that is left is a massive human-shaped form emerging from the Indian Ocean that becomes known as the Celestial Island. In Brave New World, it is discovered that adamantium — the powerful, indestructible metal that protects the likes of Wolverine and Deadpool — can be found in great quantities on the island.

The Falcon and the Winter Soldier

Captain America: Brave New World sees Anthony Mackie’s Sam Wilson first don the stars and stripes, shedding his identity as Falcon to become Captain America and fight an all-new enemy. While Brave New World may be Mackie’s big screen debut as the character, he already appeared on the small screen as Cap in The Falcon and the Winter Soldier. In the series, Cap and Bucky Barns (aka The Winter Soldier) team up on a mission to stop a rebel group called the Flag Smashers intent on destroying all borders while powered by Super Soldier Serum. Throughout the series, Sam Wilson struggles with his new identity as Captain America, both on a personal and representational level and as a Black American, understanding the history of the role and questioning if it can truly evolve in the public’s eyes.

The series introduces characters like Isaiah Bradley, the first Black Super Soldier, and Joaquin Torres, another soldier and friend to Sam Wilson, who both reappear in Brave New World. In addition, Bucky Barns also makes a short but significant appearance in Brave New World.

It’s one of, if not the biggest TV show in the US right now, but there’s a lot to digest if you’re just starting to dive into the world of the Dutton family. Luckily, we can tell you how to watch every Yellowstone TV show in order, and where the various series are all streaming.

Who would have thought that in the year 2025, the Western genre would be alive and kicking once more? You quite literally can’t keep a good horse down, and this resurgence is mostly down to two men: Taylor Sheridan and Kevin Costner.

Sheridan created the hit TV series that brought cowboys back to the fore, while Costner was the man to front Yellowstone’s mainline show from the very beginning. The Yellowstone franchise has expanded since then, though, and anyone planning to stream the series may be wondering what the best approach is.

Luckily, there are two ways to solve this dilemma, and we’ve got both answers for you.

How to watch Yellowstone in release order

The good news is that simply watching Yellowstone in the order the show was released works just fine. Yes, there are prequel series at play here, but the context they give us is not integral to understanding the present day timeline.

If you want to get really specific with it, you can watch Yellowstone seasons 1-4 first. This will allow you to get acquainted with the most prominent members of the Dutton clan, including the patriarch, John (Costner), and his children, Beth, Jamie, and Kayce, as they battle to keep control of their beloved ranch.

Then, you can take a detour to enjoy 1883 – arguably the very best Yellowstone show of them all. As you may have guessed, this spin-off takes place over 130 years before present day events. 1883 introduces us to James and Margaret Dutton as they lead their family on a migration across post-Civil War America to find a new place to settle, while their headstrong daughter, Elsa, contends with her own search for purpose in life.

You’ve time for another spin-off before the main timeline comes to an end, with 1923 taking us 40 years further along in the Dutton journey. Harrison Ford and Helen Mirren lead the cast here, as Jacob and Cara Dutton, while the rest of their clan is divided and their ranch appears to be slipping away from underneath them.

All good things come to an end, sadly, and the core storyline of Yellowstone was wrapped up in 2024, with season 5 split into two parts. Costner called time on his involvement with the franchise after a dispute with Sheridan and Paramount, which changed the course of the story, but somehow, it still managed to find a satisfying conclusion.

And finally, 1923 season 2 began airing in February 2024, running through until April. So, if you want to get caught up in time, you’d better hit play right now.

How to watch Yellowstone in chronological order

Another way to tackle Yellowstone would be to watch the various iterations in chronological order. Taking this approach would be very straightforward and would enable you to get stuck into the present-day storyline equipped with a comprehensive knowledge of the Dutton family tree.

1883 would kick things off if you go down this route, giving an insight into how the Duttons first settled in Montana all those years ago, and the price they paid for their pilgrimage.

Then, fast forward to 1923 and witness the struggle of the Dutton family to hold onto their land as predators close in and try to snare it away from them. Which, incidentally, is a common theme that bleeds into the modern day and the main Yellowstone show.

It’s interesting, then, to arrive at the core timeline knowing the sacrifices made by the ancestors of John Dutton over the years to attain and protect the ranch. It informs so much about the motives John has for fighting tooth and nail to keep the wolves from the door throughout the five seasons of Yellowstone, making a chronological watch very rewarding indeed.

Where to watch Yellowstone and the spin-offs streaming online

Every season of Yellowstone, plus 1883 and 1923, are available to stream on Paramount Plus.

The third season in HBO’s wildly successful black comedy drama The While Lotus finally premiered in February 2025. As with every season so far, the cast of characters staying or working at the White Lotus resort in Thailand is stacked with both well known faces as well as some newcomers getting their big break. But where have you seen them all before?

He’s everybody’s favourite cuddly, little bear, but there are simply not enough Paddington films to satisfy our need for anthropomorphic cuteness. So, here are a bunch of movies like Paddington to keep you going long after the marmalade sandwiches run out and find out where to watch them all online below.

Paddington Bear is a British institution. He’s been entertaining audiences since way back in 1958, first starting life as a book before moving to the small screen. In the past decade, we’ve been treated to feature length Paddington adventures, and rather miraculously, his quaint three-film run is one of the best movie trilogies of the modern era.

From his first outing under Paul King’s directorship, featuring Nicole Kidman’s villainous turn as Millicent, to Hugh Grant’s scene-stealing arrival in Paddington 2, and the third entry, Paddington in Peru, this sweet series of films has given audiences so much joy.

Now, we’re looking beyond the Paddington trilogy for movies that offer up a similar vibe, theme, or general concept. So, whether you want a cosy family movie night, or just like seeing humans and animals get into mischief together, there’s something for everyone in our list of the best movies like Paddington.

Wonka

You could almost certainly watch Wonka and immediately know it’s a Paul King film without having to be told as much. The director carries over all the quaint charm, whimsy, and vibrancy that we’ve come to expect from the man responsible for Paddington and its sequel, and it’s clear to see why he got the gig for Wonka. 

An array of British acting talent crossover from the Paddington series here – including Sally Hawkins, Olivia Colman, and Hugh Grant – to make you feel right at home. Indeed, you wouldn’t even be surprised if Paddington himself showed up (but sadly, he doesn’t). Meanwhile, Timothée Chalamet is delightful in the titular role, bringing a fresh spin on such an iconic character.

The Grand Budapest Hotel

Remember in Paddington 2 when our half-pint hero is incarcerated and turns everyone’s prison gear pink? Well, imagine that but with a Wes Anderson spin, and you’ve got a perfect match in The Grand Budapest Hotel. It’s an oddly sweet film; for all its madcap antics and tomfoolery, Anderson’s Oscar-winning tale is, at its core, a story of friendship and camaraderie.

Be warned, though, The Grand Budapest is certainly not suitable for children. It comes with a healthy dose of profanity, nudity, and even a bit of violence, albeit of a slapstick variety. 

My Neighbor Totoro

What is Paddington, if not the story of a fluffy animal going on wild adventures with his human friends? In that respect, you’ll get the same kicks out of this Studio Ghibli classic, and then some.

The prolific anime house has produced some of the best animated movies of all time, but My Neighbor Totoro might just be the finest of them all. It’s endearing, funny, imaginative, and has an emotional undercurrent that elevates it beyond mere kids’ entertainment, into something truly beautiful.

Wolfwalkers

Speaking of beautiful animated movies, Cartoon Saloon are one of the most exciting new studios on the block, and they’re yet to miss with their relatively small but superb catalogue of films.

One could argue that My Father’s Dragon has more in common with Paddington – given the playful nature of the eponymous creature – but it is Wolfwalkers that is most deserving of your attention. There’s a real profundity to Tomm Moore and Ross Stewart’s mythical tale, which makes it a more serious viewing experience than Paddington, perhaps, but it still evokes that  same childlike wonder that we cherish so much.

Marcel the Shell with Shoes on

Paddington may be adorable, but Marcel has him beat paws down. This unique and delightful A24 flick combines clever stop-motion animation with real world settings to tell the simple story of a little shell trying to find his place and purpose in life.

While the mockumentary framing device here is very different to Paddington – and probably puts Marcel the Shell with Shoes on out of reach for younger viewers – there’s no denying that, tonally, these two films share a kinship rooted in heart and humour.

Okja

You wouldn’t ordinarily expect to see a Bong Joon-ho picture on a list making comparisons with Paddington, but here we are. Thankfully, Okja doesn’t align with the bloodsoaked chaos one would normally get from the acclaimed director, with the Netflix movie instead going hard on emotional weight and childish innocence.

Okja is humorous – in that dark manner in which Bong excels – but it carries a strong environmentalist message, too, and one that Paddington himself would be proud to endorse, we’re sure.

Wallace and Gromit: Vengeance Most Fowl

From one British institution to another, it would be foolish of us to neglect the work of Aardman Animation on this list. The only difficult part is picking which Wallace and Gromit film to focus on.

By selecting the most recent effort, Vengeance Most Fowl, we can also sneakily force you to go back and watch The Wrong Trousers, too, as the new movie relies on you having seen the iconic 1993 film. 

Given Paddington’s propensity for dealing with nefarious characters, it wouldn’t be at all out of place to see him battling Feathers McGraw in Gromit’s place, actually. Now there’s a crossover we’d love to see!

Ratatouille

A quick game of word association can connect the dots between Paddington and Ratatouille quite easily: Animal, hat, food, mischief, you get the picture. The Disney Pixar movie is a bona fide classic and a deserving winner of the Oscar for Best Animated Feature back in 2008.

At its core, Ratatouille is a story about finding a passion in life, but it is also underpinned by the universal feeling of leaving a past life behind to pursue a new one. It’s something Paddington knows all too well, having upped sticks and took on a big adventure in London after leaving Peru, and Remy the rat follows a similar path in leaving behind the garbage cans of the Parisien streets to ingratiate himself in the grandeur of fine dining restaurants.

The Wild Robot

The Wild Robot has similar themes of a classic fish out of water story, but we’re including it on this list for mere vibes alone more than anything. It’s one of the best animated movies of the last year, and is just so sweet and stylish that you cannot help but fall in love with Roz and her animal companions.

There’s actually an argument to be made that The Wild Robot could be even more wholesome than Paddington. It’s a close contest, that’s for sure, so if that’s the mood you’re in, you could do far worse.

Where the Wild Things Are

Spike Jonze’s adaptation of the classic children’s book is a spectacularly imaginative and nuanced interpretation of a source material that is actually incredibly short. Jonze imbues his version of Where the Wild Things Are with a surprising degree of humanity and realism that you’ll soon forget you’re watching a bunch of giant monsters on a fantasy island.

This is not one that younger children are likely to engage with, truth be told. However, for slightly older kids who are perhaps beginning to get to grips with their emotions (or indeed, any adults who are doing the same), Where the Wild Things Are is a poignant experience indeed.

The 2025 BAFTAs brought the best filmmakers, actors, designers, and artists together for a night of celebration in which the best films, performances, and more were recognised for their hard work and ambitions. From The Brutalist to Wallace and Gromit, of the many worthy contenders nominated for awards only 11 came away with a prize that night. 

The two big winners at the 2025 BAFTAs were undoubtedly Edward Berger’s sassy Vatican drama Conclave and Brady Corbet’s sprawling epic The Brutalist. Conclave took home four of the top prizes including Best Film and Adapted Screenplay, while The Brutalist won big in four categories, Leading Actor for Adrien Brody’s performance, and Director for Brady Corbet. Check out all of the 2025 BAFTA winners and find out where you can stream them all below!

Conclave

BAFTA Awards: Best Film, Best Outstanding British Film, Adapted Screenplay, Editing

Director Edward Berger’s Conclave dives headfirst into the ancient, secretive procedures that surround the selection of a new pope. Ralph Fiennes gives a masterful performance as Cardinal Thomas Lawrence, the dean and lead organiser of the conclave, who tries to juggle the flamboyant antics of the top contenders with his own grief at the loss of the Pope and his private aspirations. The main players include Stanley Tucci’s Cardinal Aldo Bellini, a progressive American who is first favoured to come out on top; John Lithgow’s Cardinal Joseph Tremblay, a Canadian moderate with some skeletons in the closet; Lucian Msamati’s conservative Cardinal Joshua Adeyemi, Sergio Castellitto’s Italian traditionalist and most emphatic of vape-smokers Cardinal Goffredo Tedesco, and Carlos Diehz’s dark horse Cardinal Vincent Benitez. Isabella Rossellini also plays a small but memorable role in Conclave as Sister Agnes, which earned her a BAFTA nomination for Supporting Actress.

The Brutalist

BAFTA Awards: Lead Actor (Adrien Brody), Director (Brady Corbet), Original Score (Daniel Blumberg), Cinematography (Lol Crawley)

Director Brady Corbet’s three-and-a-half-hour epic stars Adrien Brody as the fictional Hungarian-Jewish architect László Tóth who, after surviving the Holocaust in Europe, finds a new home in the United States. There, he contends with hostility from the locals who are suspicious of both foreigners and jews, while attempting to reestablish his career after receiving a chance commission from a mercurial millionaire, played by Guy Pearce (who was nominated for Supporting Actor). Felicity Jones, who also received a Support Actress nomination, starred as Erzsébet Tóth, László’s journalist wife who eventually makes it out of Europe to join him in the United States.

Emilia Pèrez 

BAFTA Awards: Film Not in the English Language, Supporting Actress (Zoe Saldaña)

Jacques Audiard’s operatic Emilia Pèrez tells the story of an ambitious but undervalued lawyer in Mexico City, Rita (played by Zoe Saldaña), whose life is changed when she is hired to help notorious cartel leader ‘Manitas’ fake their own death and undergo a gender transition to become a woman named Emilia Pérez — leaving behind her wife Jessi (played by Selena Gomez) and their two children. Years later, Emilia rehires Rita to bring her back into her children's lives, pretending to be Manitas’ a long-lost cousin. Emilia also attempts to right her past wrongs by helping victims of cartel violence get justice across Mexico.

Anora

BAFTA Awards: Leading Actress (Mickey Madison), Casting

Director Sean Baker’s Anora successfully balances drama, whirlwind romance, heartbreak, and comedy to create an emotional tapestry that will have you both crying and laughing at different times throughout. Leading Actress winner Mickey Madison heads the picture as the titular Anora, a Brooklyn native and exotic dancer who finds herself suddenly engaged and married to the young son of a Russian oligarch — only to find that his parents are none too pleased with the news and have already sent out their top goons to put a stop to it before they arrive.

A Real Pain

BAFTA Awards: Supporting Actor (Kieran Culkin), Original Screenplay

Jesse Eisenberg writes, directs, and stars alongside Supporting Actor winner Kieran Culkin in this comedy-drama about two cousins who go on an organised Jewish heritage tour in Poland to honour their late grandmother. Eisenberg plays David, a neurotic introvert who nevertheless manages to keep his life with his wife and son mostly in order. Culkin plays Benji, David’s messy extroverted cousin who is still in the throes of grief after losing their grandmother. As the tour continues, the two try to reach across the yawning gap of their own differences, grief, and inherited trauma to find some common ground on the other side.

Dune: Part Two

BAFTA Awards: Sound, Special Visual Effects

Denis Villeneuve’s Dune: Part Two may have missed out on the Best Film nomination this time around, but its stunning sound and special visual effects did not go unappreciated. The second instalment in the epic Dune film series continues the story of Paul Atreides (played by Timothée Chalamet) as he grows into his role as the leader of the Fremen as they struggle for freedom from House Harkonnan — and from Paul’s own prophesied destiny. The film features memorable performances from Zendaya, once more resuming her role as the independently-minded Fremen warrior and partner to Paul, Chani, and Austin Butler as the psychotic Harkonnen supersoldier, Feyd-Rautha. 

The Substance

BAFTA Award: Make-up and Hair

Coralie Fargeat’s horror-drama masterpiece is a terrifying exploration of modern female beauty standards and the fear of aging. Demi Moore stars as Elisabeth Sparkle, a once popular television fitness instructor who is unceremoniously fired by her chauvinistic boss once he deems her too old for the job. Hurt and desperate, Elisabeth turns to a mysterious drug known as ‘the Substance’ to give her back her youthful appearance and allow her to dominate screens once again. But there’s a catch: the Substance splits the user into two forms — the younger and the older original — that must switch every seven days or suffer the consequences. Neither can survive without the other.

Wicked

BAFTA Awards: Costume Design, Production Design

Jon M Chu’s first of two Wicked films brings fans of the hit Broadway musical into the cinematic world of the Wizard of Oz. Starring Cynthia Erivo as Elphaba, and Ariana Grande as Glinda, Wicked explores the story of how the Wicked Witch of the West came to be. The film shows Elphaba and Glinda’s arrival at Shiz University, where they forge a deep bond despite Elphaba’s outsider status and Glinda’s desperation for popularity. However, after they meet the Wizard of Oz, they begin to go down different paths that drive a rift between them that lead to disastrous consequences.

Wallace and Gromit: Vengeance Most Fowl

BAFTA Awards: Animated Film, Children's and Family Film

Wallace and Gromit are a staple of British entertainment excellence around the world, and Nick Park’s lovable claymation duo’s second feature-length film has only served to confirm their status at the top. In their latest outing, the eccentric Northern inventor Wallace has invented a robotic garden gnome named Norbot, that causes Gromit to worry he is becoming too dependent on technology. When an old enemy resurfaces and hacks into Norbot’s system, creating an army of hostile garden gnomes, it’s down to Gromit — and Wallace — to save the day.

Super/Man: The Christopher Reeve Story

BAFTA Award: Documentary

This moving documentary by Ian Bonhôte and Peter Ettedgui follows the true story of Christopher Reeve, from his rise to stardom playing Superman onscreen and his nearly-fatal accident in 1995 that left him paralysed from the neck down, to his activism and unwavering support for disabled people around the world. The documentary is a moving testament to the resilience of the human spirit, the importance of visibility, and the bravery of one man who conquered prejudice to become a true superhero to millions both on and off screen.

Kneecap

BAFTA Award: Outstanding Debut by a British Writer, Director or Producer

Writer and director Rich Peppiatt received a well-earned accolade for his debut film Kneecap, which covers the true story of the rise of the Belfast hip-hop group Kneecap. The group rap in the Irish language, and have played an important role in keeping the language alive while introducing it to new generations. In the film, the band members play themselves as they go through their anarchic and self-described ‘low life scum’ beginnings to become figureheads of the fight to save their language.

The first Jurassic World movie roared into theatres in 2015, kicking off a new era in the Jurassic Park films series that had lain dormant since the final instalment’s release in 2001. Featuring an all new cast of characters, director Colin Trevorrow went on to create a new trilogy that brought audiences back to the fated Isla Nublar — this time with more advanced special effects. In 2025, we’re returning to the island with Jurassic World Rebirth, which will premiere in cinemas in the UK on July 2, 2025.

Under the direction of Gareth Edwards, Jurassic World Rebirth features an ensemble cast including Scarlett Johansson, Mahershala Ali, and Jonathan Bailey. The film takes place five years after the events of Jurassic World Dominion, and follows a team of scientists and pharma representatives on a mission to extract life-saving answers from the DNA of some of the largest and most formidable creatures on a remote tropical island.

While the three Jurassic World films remain the core of the franchise, several spinoffs were also created in the form of LEGO productions and two animated television series. So, in the spirit of the franchise’s revival from extinction, let’s check out all the Jurassic World movies and TV shows thus far and rank them below!

All the Jurassic World movies and TV series ranked

1. Jurassic World (2015)

Without a doubt, the best film or series in Jurassic World is the first movie instalment. After 14 years, audiences were primed to return to Isla Nublar, and in tandem with the special effects advances, the film gave the perfect mix of Jurassic Park nostalgia with the ushering in of a new era. The film featured a new cast including Bryce Dallas Howard as park manager Claire Dearing and Chris Pratt as raptor trainer Owen Grady, who successfully brought the franchise roaring into a new era as the park reopens its gates.

2. Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom (2018)

Fallen Kingdom might have lost some of the lustre that made the first Jurassic World so compelling, but it was still able to successfully rally for another heart-pumping addition to the franchise. Once more starring Chris Pratt and Bryce Dallas Howard, Fallen Kingdom sees our protagonists escaping the erupting Isla Nublar — and they even bring back Jeff Goldblum to get the job done.

3. Jurassic World: Camp Cretaceous (2020–2022)

This DreamWorks animated series is geared towards children, and takes place at the same time as the 2015 film. While all hell is breaking loose on the island, a group of teens find themselves stranded and must work together to keep safe. While the story drags somewhat, it gives a fun and unique look at the Jurassic World story from another perspective. 

4. Jurassic World: Chaos Theory (2024–)

Chaos Theory is the animated sequel to Camp Cretaceous and follows the same group of teens who are now adults living in a world where they must coexist with dinosaurs. The tone is slightly darker than its predecessor, but it succeeds in bringing in more compelling stories that tie into the larger franchise.

5. Jurassic World Dominion (2022)

While Dominion may have been intended as the franchise's grand finale, it sadly fell flat for most viewers. Although they managed to bring back the old Jurassic Park crew (including Sam Harris, Laura Dern, and Jeff Goldblum) for a nostalgic meeting of the old and new guard, the focus on genetically engineered locusts — shall we say — plagued the production.

6. LEGO Jurassic World: The Secret Exhibit (2018)

Set before the events of Jurassic World, The Secret Exhibit is a LEGO television special that sees Owen Grady and Claire Dearing transporting three dinosaurs across the island for an exhibition only for the operation to be sabotaged by a park employee, Danny, allowing the dinos and a T-Rex to escape. Unfortunately, The Secret Exhibit rather awkwardly struggles to balance the serious danger of the live-action films with the inherent whimsy of LEGO productions. 

7. LEGO Jurassic World: Legend of Isla Nublar (2019)

This 13-episode animated miniseries, continues from where The Secret Exhibit left off. As Claire and Owen continue to work to keep the park going and the dinos and patrons safe, Danny — who is revealed to be the vengeful nephew of Dennis Nedry — works behind the scenes to take the park down. Like The Secret Exhibit, Legend of Isla Nublar keeps it light and fun, but struggles to balance maintaining the interest of parents and children at the same time.

The Brutalist is a 2024 sprawling cinematic masterpiece from director Brady Corbet. Starring Adrien Brody in a career defining performance, The Brutalist tells the story of László Tóth, a fictional Hungarian-Jewish architect who seeks refuge from World War II in the United States only to find that a complex struggle between his artistic vision, integration, greed, and envy will shape the rest of his life there.

If you have seen The Brutalist and are keen to watch other films that explore similar themes, check out our 10-movie selection below. Whether you’re looking for films that examine the harsher realities of the immigrant experience in America, explore the effects of wealth and greed on the American Dream, or examine antisemitism in American society, there’s something on this list for everyone. Check out 10 movies like The Brutalist, and find out where you can stream them all below!

The Pianist

In an Academy Award-winning performance, Adrien Brody solidified his reputation as an actor capable of boundless emotional rage with his raw and heartfelt portrayal of Władysław Szpilman, a Polish-Jewish pianist who survived the horrors of the Holocaust and the destruction of World War II in Warsaw. Similar to The Brutalist, The Pianist tells the story of a brilliant artist whose life is forever altered by catastrophic human evil. Both protagonists use the mastery of their mediums to capture and express the pain of their traumas, transforming them into both a memorial and reminder for future generations.

There Will Be Blood

Paul Thomas Anderson’s provocative 2007 drama stars Daniel Day-Lewis as Daniel Plainview, a ruthless early 20th century oil tycoon who sinks deep into moral corruption as he goes up against an entrepreneurial preacher, Eli Sunday, played by Paul Dano. Like The Brutalist, There Will Be Blood is epic in scope, and provides merciless social commentary on the consequences of capitalism and performative religion, and their undeniable continued effect on the American psyche.

Golden Door

This 2006 Silver Lion-winner written and directed by Emanuele Crialese and promoted by Martin Scorsese poetically tackles the experience of immigrants making their way from Sicily to New York City at the turn of the 20th century. While the film mostly focuses on the journey by boat to the new world, like The Brutalist, it also addresses how the American Dream is advertised around the world in contrast to the harsh reality of how immigrants are perceived and treated upon arrival.

Foxcatcher 

On the face of it, Bennett Miller’s 2014 adaptation of the true story of a wrestling champion and his patron has little to do with the grandeur of The Brutalist. However, Foxcatcher dives headlong into the toxic exploitation of the talented by the morbidly wealthy — which can also be seen in dynamics between The Brutalist’s László Toth and Guy Pearce’s Harrison Lee van Buren. In Foxcatcher, Steve Carrell plays billionaire John Eleuthère du Pont, who recruits troubled Olympic wrestler Mark Schultz (and, fatefully, his brother Dave) to create a world-class wrestling facility on his estate. Like in van Buren and Toth’s dynamic, at the heart of du Pont’s relationship with the Schultzs is hidden envy and desire for ultimate control facilitated by boundless wealth and unchecked behaviour.

Once Upon a Time in America

Sergio Leone’s 1984 epic crime drama sharpens the focus on the way greed and betrayal mixed with the fantasy of the American Dream can lay waste to human connection. Once Upon a Time in America stars Robert De Niro and James Woods as David ‘Noodles’ Aaronson and Max Bercovicz, two Jewish childhood friends growing up in New York who ascend to the top of the city’s organised crime world. The film frequently jumps back in time, as the present-day Noodles reflects on his life and struggles to find closure. Like The Brutalist, Once Upon a Time in America ponders the long-term effects of wealth and greed, and how it erodes the human psyche in tragic ways over time.

Minari

Lee Isaac Chung’s 2020 Best Picture-nominated film is about a Korean-American family in the 1980s who decide to relocate from California to a 50-acre farm in Arkansas. While there, the family struggle to establish their farm and integrate into the local community — a theme shared by The Brutalist. In both films, the protagonists contemplate the costs and benefits of assimilation, which weighs heavily in many conversations as they attempt to make the best choices for themselves and their families while staying true to their roots and visions.

Gentleman’s Agreement

Elia Kazan’s award-winning 1947 drama is a telling examination of antisemitism in the United States at the time that sadly remains relevant today. The film stars Gregory Peck as a journalist who pretends to be Jewish while writing an exposé on antisemitism in New York City, throwing himself into an uncomfortable new reality. Both The Brutalist and The Gentleman’s Agreement highlight the extent to which Jewish or foreign identity is perceived by many non-Jews as less-than and a source of suspicion.

Vox Lux

Brady Corbet’s 2018 feature might be a different beast to The Brutalist, but his style and in-depth exploration of a tortured character and the lingering effects of trauma link the two films thematically. Vox Lux stars Natalie Portman as Celeste, a survivor of a school shooting who later becomes a pop star — only for her fame to start crumbling in the wake of several scandals. 

Citizen Kane

Orson Wells’s 1941 epic drama is widely recognised as one of, if not the, best film of all time. Citizen Kane is a fictional semi-autobiographical look at the life and legacy of Charles Foster Kane — who is something of an amalgamation of several American media barons, most prominently William Randolph Hearst. The film documents the rise of a young and ambitious Kane as his cutthroat tactics rake in the cash while keeping any possibility of real connection at bay. Plenty of parallels between Kane, Toth, and van Buren can be drawn, most notably in Kane and Toth’s desire for notoriety and a fanatical dedication to their professional visions; and between Kane and van Buren’s greed that manifests in gross manipulation — not to mention their choice of booze and castle-like living conditions.

Heaven’s Gate 

Michael Cimino’s epic 1980s American Western draws focus on the power dynamics between European immigrants and wealthy land barons in late 19th century Wyoming. The film follows the story of James Averill, a local sheriff from a wealthy background who finds himself defending the poor immigrant farmers from a barrage of violent attacks by the rich and hostile Wyoming Stock Growers Association members. Like The Brutalist, Heaven’s Gate explores themes of suspicion and hatred towards immigrants, as well as class warfare and the consequences of tribalism.

Ever since Bridget Jones appeared on screen in Bridget Jones’s Diary singing Céline Dion’s ‘All By Myself’ in 2001, audiences have fallen in love over and over again with the charming, clumsy, and utterly relatable protagonist. Based on Helen Fielding’s newspaper column-turned-novel(s), the Bridget Jones films have since multiplied into four instalments, with the most recent addition, Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy, set to premiere in cinemas just in time for Valentine’s Day on February 13, 2025.

In Mad About the Boy, Renée Zellweger once more plays darling Bridget as she navigates a new chapter in her life. Having sadly been recently widowed (RIP Mark Darcy *sob*, your perfection will never be forgotten) and raising their two children on her own, a 51-year-old Bridget embarks on a bold adventure into the modern dating world. 

Whether you’re catching up on all the Bridget Jones films before seeing the latest instalment, or have already seen it and just want to spend a little more time in Helen Fielding glorious romcom world, check out our guide to how (and where) to watch all of the Bridget Jones movies in order from the United Kingdom below!

All of the Bridget Jones movies in order

If you want to watch the Bridget Jones movies in order, it is luckily very simple! Both the chronological and release orders are the same, meaning you simply need to start with 2001’s Bridget Jones’s Diary and watch the story unfold throughout the next three instalments.

• Bridget Jones’s Diary (2001)
• Bridget Jones: The End of Reason (2004)
• Bridget Jones’s Baby (2016)
• Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy (2025)

Bridget has been through a lot over the years. In Bridget Jones’s Diary, the single 30-something starts out having an affair with her boss, Daniel Cleaver (Hugh Grant), while her slow-build romance with the Pride and Prejudice-inspired Mark Darcy (Colin Firth) hots up. In The Edge of Reason, Bridget and Darcy’s relationship is tested and temporarily paused while she happens to be working abroad with Daniel Cleaver. 

In Bridget Jones’s Baby, 43-year-old Bridget finds herself pregnant and unsure if the father is Mark or Patrick Dempsey’s dashing Jack Qwant. Finally, in Mad About the Boy, Bridget explores the modern dating scene — complete with apps, younger men, and botox — while raising her two children after Mark’s tragic death. Although over the years Bridget never quite learns to move forward with grace, move forward she does with all the lovable clumsiness that made her an icon from the start.

It’s nearly clobberin’ time once more for the Fantastic Four! After years of stumbling beginnings, reboots, and drawn-out pauses, the Fantastic Four are finally set for a brand new outing — this time within the Marvel Cinematic Universe — with The Fantastic Four: First Steps. The film is scheduled to premiere in cinemas in the United Kingdom on July 25, 2025.

While the Fantastic Four might be making their ‘first steps’ in the MCU, the quad have been around on screens big and small since the late 1960s. Check out all of the Fantastic Four movies and TV shows, and find out where you can stream them below!

All the Fantastic Four movies and TV shows

Created by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby, the Fantastic Four were originally created as Marvel Comics superhero squad composed of Mister Fantastic (Reed Richards), Invisible Woman (aka Susan Storm), Human Torch (aka Johnny Storm), and Thing (aka Ben Grimm).

Over the years, the Fantastic Four have had a series of somewhat successful animated television series, but their live-action films have had fairly bad to mixed receptions.

Television Series

• Fantastic Four (1967–1968)
• The New Fantastic Four (1978)
• Fred & Barney Meet The Thing (1979)
• Fantastic Four (1994–1996)
• Fantastic Four: World’s Greatest Heroes (2006–2010)
• The Super Hero Squad Show (2009–2011)

Movies

• Fantastic Four (2005)
• Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer (2007)
• Fantastic Four (2015)
• Dr Strange in the Multiverse of Madness (2022)
• Deadpool & Wolverine (2024)
• The Fantastic Four: First Steps (2025)

The first 1994 Fantastic Four film was apparently so awful that it was never officially released. However, in 2005, 20th Century Fox took a crack with an adaptation starring Chris Evans, Jessica Alba, and Kerry Washington. While this film too was originally not well received, in recent years a newly found appreciation for it has sprung from the catastrophic disappointment around its 2015 reboot starring Miles Teller, Kate Mara, Michael B Jordan, and Jamie Bell. 

In the wake of the 2015 box office bomb, 20th Century Fox was sold to Disney (who also own Marvel Studios), giving the Fantastic Four another chance at live-action redemption within the MCU. In two subsequent Marvel productions, Fantastic Four members made brief cameos — including Reed Richards (played by John Krasinski) in Dr Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, and Johnny Storm (played once more by Chris Evans) in Deadpool & Wolverine — before finally getting their own standalone movie.

In 2025, the Fantastic Four are ready to reassemble in their first solo debut in the MCU with an all new cast including Pedro Pascal as Reed Richards, Vanessa Kirby as Susan Storm, Joseph Quinn as Johnny Storm, and Ebon Moss-Bachrach as Ben Grimm.

What is the best Fantastic Four movie or TV show?

In terms of TV shows, Fantastic Four: World’s Greatest Heroes is widely seen as the best animated series featuring the squad. Although it only lasted one season, its straightforward interpretation of stories from the comic books, plus its sleek animation style helped ease the disappointment in the wake of the 2005 live-action film’s release.

Given the above, it might seem counterintuitive to name 2005’s Fantastic Four as the best of the film selection — but here we are. Until First Steps is released and possibly takes the crown as the best Fantastic Four movie, the 2005 film can proudly claim the title. Although it was originally badly received, in recent years it has undergone a reconsideration that has largely landed in its favour. Yes, it may have been bashed for its attempts at humour, debatable acting, and beige plotlines, but in comparison to the next instalments — especially the 2015 reboot — it’s a solid attempt. And if the celebration of Chris Evans reprising his role as the Human Torch in Deadpool & Wolverine is any indication, it seems the film is now seen in a much gentler light.

When Dan Erickson’s magnificent TV series Severance first debuted on Apple TV+ in 2022, it quickly rose through the ranks to become one of the streamers’ most successful projects. Beloved by fans and critics alike, Severance takes on the question of work-life balance and dials it up to 11. Set in and around the mysterious biotech corporation Lumon Industries, the series focuses on employees who have undergone the “severance” procedure, in which the their consciousness is severed in two; one half comes online at work (the ‘Innie’) while the other (the ‘Outie’) activates only after leaving the office.

Severance is directed and produced by Ben Stiller and stars Adam Scott as Mark, one of the severed employees who runs a team made up of the dapper Irving (John Turturro), the competitive Dylan (Zach Cherry), and the rebellious Helly (Britt Lower). The first season begins with Helly’s entry onto the team, when her insistence at being freed sparks a growing suspicion about the nature of their work and the entire severance program. Meanwhile, the lives of their ‘Outies’ start to complete the picture of why anyone would want to sever their consciousness in the first place, while also revealing how interconnected the outside world and Lumon really are.

The second season of Severance is now underway (Episode 1 premiered on January 17, 2025), with new episodes airing weekly on Apple TV+. While no series is quite like Severance, there are a few compelling shows that can make the wait between episodes feel shorter. Check out these 10 TV shows like Severance, and find out where you can stream them from within the United Kingdom below!

Mr Robot

Creator, writer, and director Sam Esmail’s immersive award-winning conspiracy-drama Mr Robot ran for four seasons between 2015 and 2019. The series stars Academy Award-winner Rami Malik in his breakout role as Elliot Alderson, a socially anxious and clinically depressed cybersecurity expert whose life is turned inside out when he is recruited by a hacktivist group set on destroying E Corp, an enormous, evil conglomerate. Like Severance, Mr Robot explores questions about the role corporations can and should play in our lives, as well as deeper themes of identity and the coping mechanisms we develop in the face of suffering and loss.

Counterpart

The series created by Justin Marks ran for two seasons between 2017 and 2019, and stars JK Simmons as a mild-mannered bureaucrat working in the Office of Interchange in Berlin. His quiet life is upended when it is revealed to him that deep in the basement of the office lies a portal between parallel worlds, where his counterpart is a capable deadly agent in a Cold War that continues to silently rage. The way in which Counterpart slowly zooms out over the seasons, incrementally revealing the true extent of the conspiracy shaping everyone’s lives is very similar in feel to Severance. 

Station Eleven

Based on Emily St John Mandel’s novel of the same name, Station Eleven is a 2021 miniseries that takes place in a post-apocalyptic world. Some twenty years after most of the population is killed by a deadly pandemic, the survivors struggle to create a new world and keep hope alive — even as a dangerous cult leader attempts to gain the upper hand. Like Severance, Station Eleven emphasises the importance of human connection, showing that in a world of division and suspicion encouraged by corporate greed or the struggle to survive, we need each other more than ever.

Westworld

This American dystopian sci-fi drama from HBO galloped onto screens in 2016 and captivated audiences around the world. Although the series created by Jonathan Nolan and Lisa Joy lasted four seasons, the first season is widely considered to be the best, with the others progressively losing steam. The first season of Westworld is set within the confines of a massive Wild West-themed amusement park in which completely lifelike android ‘hosts’ cater to the guests living out their wildest fantasies. Like Severance, Westworld delves heavily into questions of identity, what it means to be conscious — or even human — and the role of technology in facilitating or destroying humanity.

Maniac

This Netflix miniseries was created by Patrick Somerville in 2018 and is a loose adaptation of a 2015 Norwegian series of the same name. The series stars Emma Stone and Jonah Hill as two strangers who sign up for an experimental trial for a drug that is supposed to cure all mental illness. Although they already live in a real world with grotesque societal problems, they go through the stages of the trail confronting their own coping strategies and deepest fears. Like Severance, Maniac explores the desperation of individuals to both be and not be human in a hostile world. By severing themselves or searching for medical cures to suffering, they find their way back to themselves and each other through imperfect and messy human connection.

Devs

This 2020 miniseries written and directed by Alex Garland (Ex Machina) shares many similarities with Severance, although the overall tone is even darker. The series takes place in and around Amaya, a quantum company run by a grieving CEO, Forest (Nick Offerman). After the mysterious death of her boyfriend on his first day in the Devs department, Lily Chan, a software engineer, starts investigating what happened, leading her to uncover the true nature of the company and its motives. Devs and Severance both explore questions of free will and self-determination in a highly technological corporate setting run by humans who are themselves deeply wounded.

Homecoming

This 2018 Amazon series was created by Eli Horowitz and Micah Bloomberg, who originally released it as a scripted podcast series of the same name. The first season is directed by Sam Esmail (Mr Robot), and stars Julia Roberts as Heidi Bergman, a waitress who used to be a therapist at the Homecoming Transitional Support Center. The centre’s purpose was to treat veterans with PTSD so that they could return to their civilian lives, but Heidi can barely remember her time there. However, after an auditor starts asking questions, her memories start returning — and she begins to suspect the facility had a far darker purpose than she thought. Like Severance, Homecoming features a plot in which a corporation purports to have a ‘cure’ for an ailment whose aims, as they are uncovered, appear to be far more sinister than advertised. 

Utopia

This two-season British dystopian thriller created by Dennis Kelly aired between 2013 and 2014, and follows a group of fans of the graphic novel The Utopia Experiments, which they believe predicts disasters such as pandemics before they happen. When one of the group gets their hands on an unpublished edition, they find themselves being hunted down by a shadowy organisation known as The Network. Similar to Severance, Utopia plunges into a mysterious conspiracy that only grows wider and more complex as the members of the group open their eyes to see its full expanse.

The Leftovers

This three-season HBO drama is created by Damon Lindelof and Tom Perrotta, based on Perrotta’s novel of the same name. The award-winning series stars Justin Theroux and Carrie Coon as two people coming together in the wake of an event known as the Sudden Departure, in which 2% of the world’s population suddenly disappeared without a trace. In the aftermath of the Sudden Departure, those left try to cope with their grief as they grasp for an explanation for what happened and why. Like Severance, The Leftovers deals heavily with themes of grief in the aftermath of immeasurable loss.

The Consultant

The Consultant is a 2023 one-season Amazon thriller adapted by Tony Basgallop from author Bentley Little's novel of the same name. The series stars the magnificent Christoph Waltz as Regus Patoff, the bizarre consultant who appears overnight to reorganise mobile gaming company CompWare after the murder of its CEO. Two employees grow suspicious of Patoff and his motives, and they begin investigating him, even as they try to climb the corporate ladder. Like Severance, much of The Consultant takes place within the confines of an office — although in this series the baddie isn’t a faceless corporate entity, but an actual real sociopath.

Whether you know him as Spidey, the webslinger, the wallcrawler, or just plain Spider-Man, this teenage vigilante has become one of the most beloved superheroes since he first sprang from the imagination of Stan Lee onto Marvel comic books pages in 1962. In his origin story, Peter Parker is a seemingly normal teenager being raised by his Aunt May and Uncle Ben in Queens. But after he is bitten by a radioactive spider, Peter develops powers that give him super strength and the ability to climb walls and produce webs from his wrists. As he learns to master his powers, he dedicates his nights to defending New York City from a host of supervillains while keeping his identity secret.

As one of the most relatable and likeable characters in Marvel Comics, Spider-Man has developed a dedicated fanbase spanning generations. With all the love, it’s no wonder Spider-Man has also swung off the page and onto screens both big and small. While he currently features in live-action form in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (portrayed by Tom Holland), he also enjoys a vibrant television existence in mostly animated form — although there have been a few live-action attempts too. The most recent animated series is Marvel’s Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man, which is now available to stream on Disney+ in the United Kingdom.

Adrien Brody has established himself as one of the best living actors of our time. With a career spanning from the late 1980s to the present day, Brody has become known for his ability to play a wide range of characters. From his role as eccentric surrealist painter Salvador Dalí in Midnight in Paris to his Oscar-winning performance as a survivor of the horrors of the Holocaust in The Pianist, Adrien Brody brings a mesmerising all-in approach to each of his performances.

In his latest film The Brutalist, Brody plays a famous Hungarian-Jewish architect who must rebuild his life and career from scratch after fleeing to the United States during the second World War. His performance has already been nominated for an Academy Award, reminding us of his incredible acting abilities, so what better time to take a look at Adrien Brody’s best movies to date? Take a look at 10 of Adrien Brody’s best movies, and find out where you can stream them below!

The Pianist

Adrien Brody won an Oscar for Best Actor at the 75th Academy Awards in 2003 for his portrayal of Władysław Szpilman, a Polish-Jewish pianist who survived the horrors of the Holocaust and the destruction of World War II in Warsaw. Brody prepared for the role by dropping a significant amount of weight and mastered some of Chopin’s most complex pieces so that his hands could be used in shots of him playing piano. At 29, Brody’s Best Actor win made him the youngest person to date to win the award.

The Brutalist

Brody was nominated again for Best Actor at the 97th Academy Awards in 2025 for his role as László Tóth, a fictional Hungarian-Jewish architect who flees World War II with his wife to the United States. Once there, he realises his reputation was also left behind in the destruction of Europe, and he must work again to establish himself in a hostile new country. However, a chance meeting with a millionaire changes his luck and life forever.

Midnight in Paris

Midnight in Paris is a 2011 film directed by Woody Allen. The film stars Owen Wilson as Gil, a nostalgic screenwriter visiting Paris with his fiancée and her family. As his uncertainty about the relationship grows, he discovers a way to travel back in time to the 1920s where he hobnobs with some of the most well-known artists and intellectuals of the time. In his small but memorable role, Adrien Brody plays the surrealist painter Salvador Dalí to exuberant effect, complete with moustache twirling and wide-eyed chat about rhinoceroses.

The Darjeeling Limited

This Wes Anderson comedy-drama from 2007 tells the story of brothers Jack (Jason Schwartzman), Peter (Adrien Brody), and Francis (Owen Wilson) who go on a journey across India together in an attempt to heal their relationship in the aftermath of their father’s death. Brody’s portrayal of Peter demonstrates both his comedic chops and his masterful ability to show heartfelt emotion as the brothers struggle to reconcile.

Detachment

This 2011 drama from director Tony Kaye sees Adrien Brody star as Henry Barthes, a substitute English teacher who takes a one month position in a struggling American high school. As he gains the students’ trust and respect, he helps them face both personal and academic challenges — while struggling to keep afloat amidst his own personal troubles. In this role, Brody puts his full dramatic prowess on display as his character navigates the complexities of being a teacher trying to support troubled teens.

Summer of Sam

This 1999 drama from acclaimed director Spike Lee tells the story of two childhood friends living in an Italian-American neighbourhood in the Bronx in 1977 when the Son of Sam serial killer starts his killing spree. With the shootings setting the backdrop for the summer, two childhood friends Vinny and Ritchie contend with relationship struggles and their own growing differences. Brody portrays Ritchie, who returns to the Bronx after some time away with a new punk style and a British accent that makes some in the neighbourhood suspicious of him.

The Grand Budapest Hotel

This 2014 Wes Anderson film set in the 1930s tells the story of Gustave, the hotel concierge who provides first-class service to all the guests, but finds himself framed for one of their murders. In this story, Brody plays Dmitri, the villainous son of the owner of the Grand Budapest Hotel who will stop at nothing to steal what he thinks is his rightful inheritance. Brody brings a wicked flare to the part, proving he’s more than capable of playing more sinister roles.

The Village

In M Night Shayamalan’s 2004 horror film, Brody plays Noah, one of the inhabitants of an isolated village in 19th century Pennsylvania whose members live in fear of the creatures living in the surrounding woods. Reality and myth are blended into a narrative of fear to keep the younger members of the population rooted in the town. Brody plays a small but key role in the film, and his portrayal of Noah encapsulates both the innocence and the misguided evil of the character.

The French Dispatch

In this 2021 comedy-drama from director Wes Anderson is divided into five distinct chapters, and Brody appears in the second, The Concrete Masterpiece. He plays the eclectic art dealer Julien Cadizio, who serves a sentence with artist Moses Rosenthaler in the Ennui prison and becomes a passionate fan of his work. The role shows Brody’s ability to provide an expressive, almost silent film-like performance that is both over-the-top  and completely convincing.

Asteroid City

Wes Anderson’s 2023 alien saga is set in the 1950s in a fictional desert town where a Junior Stargazer convention is taking place. As the attendees arrive in Asteroid City, an unexpected alien visit upends the convention and their lives. Brody plays a small role in the film as the director of the play depicting the events, Schubert Green, whose deteriorating relationship with his wife causes him to live in the studio for the entire run of the production. Here, Brody crafts a character whose macho tendencies are deeply but believably complimentary to his theatrically wounded nature.

The Night Agent is one of Netflix’s most successful action series to date. Brought to the screen by Shawn Ryan (known for The Shield, Lie to Me, and SWAT) and based on Matthew Quirk’s novel of the same name, The Night Agent stars Gabriel Basso as FBI agent Peter Sutherland. Peter stumbles onto a conspiracy at the highest levels of the US government after he receives a desperate call on the Night Action telephone he mans in the White House.

Find out where you can watch these 15 TV shows like The Night Agent on different streaming platforms in the United Kingdom below!

Bodyguard

This critically acclaimed 2018 political thriller stars Richard Madden as Police Sergeant David Budd, a veteran suffering from PTSD after serving in Afghanistan who is assigned as the primary bodyguard in charge of protecting controversial Home Secretary Julia Montague. Like in The Night Agent, a complex web of conspiracies and lies are at the heart of Bodyguard — and the intrigue and thrilling chase scenes will keep you on the edge of your seat.

Condor

Joe Turner is an idealistic low-level CIA operative who has newly joined the force in the hopes of changing it from within. But when he returns from lunch to find his entire office has been murdered by professional killers, Joe must gather all his skills together to stay alive while he unravels the conspiracy around who killed them and why. Like Peter in The Night Agent, Joe must find the few people he can trust and expose a plot that goes all the way to the top while evading the baddies.

The Recruit

Owen Hendricks (Noah Centineo) is a newly hired CIA lawyer who finds himself drawn into an internal conflict on an international scale. When an asset named Max Meladz threatens to expose her connection to the agency unless she is freed from prison, Owen finds himself playing a dangerous game of politics and spywork far beyond his paygrade. If you liked The Night Agent but are in the mood for a spy-thriller that’s a bit more on the fun end, make sure to check out The Recruit.

The Americans

This critically acclaimed six-season series stars Keri Russell and Matthew Rhys as two Soviet KGB agents during the Cold War stationed in the US. As sleeper cells, they appear to be born-and-raised Americans, raising two children in the US system while carrying out missions and reporting back to the Russian government. If you’re looking for a series heavy on the espionage elements of The Night Agent, make sure to watch The Americans.

Paradise

This 2025 Hulu drama stars Sterling K Brown as Xavier Collins, the loyal Head of Security to President Cal Bradford. But when the President Bradford is found dead, and Xavier was the last to see him alive, all of a sudden he finds himself at the centre of a plot framing him for a crime he may or may not have committed. Like The Night Agent, Paradise deals with a conspiracy at the highest levels of the US government and a protagonist who must prove himself innocent and find those few people he can really trust.

The Night Manager

This critically acclaimed British spy-thriller was released in 2016 and stars Tom Hiddleston as Jonathan Pine, an army veteran turned night manager at a luxury hotel in Cairo. When an illicit arms dealer, Richard Roper (played by Hugh Laurie), comes to stay at the hotel, Pine is contacted by the Foreign Office and tasked with infiltrating Roper’s inner circle. If you loved the heartpumping tension in The Night Agent, make sure you don’t miss The Night Manager.

Collateral

This 2018 crime drama created by David Hare stars Carey Mulligan as Kip Glaspie, a Detective Inspector investigating the killing of a pizza delivery driver in London. What starts out as a seemingly random crime turns out to be connected to a web of corruption that covers the criminal underworld, MI5 spies, and government officials at the very top. If you want to watch a series that slowly uncovers a deadly conspiracy, filled with fantastic performances and a social commentary, don’t miss out on Collateral.

The Diplomat

This 2023 Netflix series stars Keri Russell as Kate Wyler, the newly named American ambassador to the United Kingdom. As she settles into her new position and tackles tense international crises, she must also contend with her increasingly unruly husband, fellow diplomat Hal Wyler. If you liked the political drama in The Night Agent, you’ll get loads more of it in The Diplomat.

Reacher

This ongoing Amazon series from 2022 stars Alan Ritchson as Jack Reacher, a character created by Lee Child for his Jack Reacher novel series. Reacher is a lone drifter and former US military police major who uses his skill set to help people around the country. Like Peter in The Night Agent, Reacher draws from his extensive skillset to save lives and seek justice. 

Chuck

This five-season series first premiered in 2007 and ran until 2012, and stars Zachary Levi as Chuck Bartowski. Chuck went from being an ordinary computer nerd to a super asset for the CIA after an old friend sends him an email that automatically embeds all of the CIA’s top secrets into his brain. Given the magnitude of his newly acquired knowledge, Chuck is taken on high-risk missions with the CIA as a kind of secret weapon. While the series might be a bit old-school at times, if you’re looking for a fun CIA drama with a good mix of intrigue and action, check out Chuck.

Homeland

This espionage thriller series ran for eight seasons between 2011 and 2020. Starring Claire Danes as Carrie Mathison, a CIA officer with bipolar disorder working for the Counterterrorism Unit, Homeland follows her story as she investigates terrorist plots in and outside of the United States while also dealing with her own personal struggles. Homeland features plenty of action and espionage, so if you’re looking for a long-running series with a lot of similar elements to The Night Agent, Homeland is a great pick.

Slow Horses

This critically acclaimed series from 2022 takes a unique approach to espionage, focusing on the MI5 agents who made career-ending mistakes and are subsequently assigned to a division run by Jackson Lamb (Gary Oldman) at Slough House completing menial tasks. But when River Cartwright joins the ranks after bungling a practice training, he sets out on a mission to find out if he was actually set up, while trying to redeem himself.

Designated Survivor

This political drama ran for three seasons between 2016 and 2019, and stars Kiefer Sutherland as Tom Kirkman, the designated survivor who ascends to the presidency in the United States after an explosion kills the president and everyone in the line of succession. After being sworn in, he must deal with the weight of presidential tasks as well as questions about his legitimacy as an elected official in the government. If you’re looking for a series like The Night Agent with a more political bent, this is the show for you.

Citadel

This ambitious Amazon series stars Richard Madden and Priyanka Chopra as two secret agents who, after their organisation Citadel was defeated, had their memories wiped. Years later, when they are both leading very different lives, a Citadel agent comes to restore their memories and reactivate them to take down Manticore, the deadly organisation that destroyed them. If you want to watch a series like The Night Agent that leans even more heavily into the espionage elements, check out Citadel and its spinoff series Citadel: Diana.

Everyone's favourite bad girl Harley Quinn has captivated fans on the big and small screen since her debut in 1992 in Batman: The Animated Series. Originally created as the Joker’s henchwoman for the series, Harley Quinn became so popular that she made the leap into the Batman comic books the following year, and has since gone on to appear in over 55 different movies and TV shows in both animated and live-action form.

The most recent addition to Harley Quinn’s legacy is her very own animated series — also titled Harley Quinn — following her journey of self-discovery after her breakup with the Joker. The series is releasing its fifth season on January 16, 2025 on Max in the US.

Since German director FW Murnau’s iconic silent film Nosferatu was released in 1922, it has become widely considered to be the defining horror film of the 20th century, and has gone on to shape the way filmmakers conceptualise vampires on screen. The story of Nosferatu is based on Irish author Bram Stoker’s seminal gothic horror novel Dracula, which was first published in 1897. Due to the production studio making an unauthorised adaptation, names and plot changes were added to differentiate Nosferatu from Dracula — although the influence remains hard to ignore.

Over the years, there have been several adaptations of Nosferatu — including Robert Eggers’ recent 2024 version — so if you’re keen for a little more Count Olok in your life, make sure to check them all out below, and find out where you can stream all the Nosferatu movies from the United Kingdom!

How (and where) to watch all of the Nosferatu movies

Director FW Murnau’s seminal 1922 film Nosferatu introduced audiences to Count Orlok, a terrifying vampire portrayed by Max Schreck who lives in a castle in the Carpathian mountains. When the Count is visited by estate agent Thomas Hutter, he becomes obsessed with a picture of Hutter’s wife, Ellen.

• Nosferatu (1922)
• Nosferatu the Vampyre (1979)
• Nosferatu: A Symphony of Horror (2023)
• Nosferatu (2024)

In 1979, the legendary German filmmaker Werner Herzog released his own interpretation of Nosferatu, Nosferatu the Vampyre. The adaptation absolutely holds up against the original, and introduces dialogue into the picture that brings the existentially tortured nature of the protagonist into the light. 

In 2023, director David Lee Fisher released his adaptation of the story, using the English translation of the full name of the original film: Nosferatu: A Symphony of Horror. The film stars Doug Jones as Count Orlok, and while his performance was praised by critics, the film overall did not measure up to either the original or Herzog’s interpretation.

In 2024, director Robert Eggers released his own interpretation of Nosferatu. Starring Bill Skarsgård as Count Orlok, Nicholas Hoult as Thomas Hutter, Lily-Rose Depp as Ellen Hutter, and featuring Aaron Taylor-Johnson and Willem Dafoe, Eggers’ contribution was largely well received. Known for his films The Witch, The Lighthouse, and The Northman, Eggers’ proven horror chops mixed with strong nods to the spirit of the original silent film make his Nosferatu an adaptation not to be missed.

Vampire movies never truly go out of style. With their nocturnal habits, menacing presence, and undying bloodlust, vampires have provided ample fodder for imaginative filmmakers since the medium was first introduced. With 2024’s addition Nosferatu, director Robert Eggers continues the tradition with a gothic horror starring Bill Skarsgård as the terrifying Count Orlok, Nicholas Hoult, Lily-Rose Depp, and Willem Dafoe in a retelling of Bram Stoker’s 1897 novel Dracula.

If you loved Nosferatu and want to watch more similar films, make sure you check out our list of 10 movies like Nosferatu, and find out where you can stream them below!

Nosferatu: A Symphony of Horror

First and foremost, we have the 1922 original silent film Nosferatu: A Symphony of Horror. This German expressionist masterpiece has defined the genre of vampire horror since its release, setting the aesthetics and tone for generations of filmmakers to come. The film is directed by FW Murnau and stars Max Schreck as Count Orlok (aka Dracula), and is based on Bram Stoker’s seminal 1897 novel. Robert Eggers’ film is heavily inspired by Murnau’s take, so if you want to see where it all began, make sure to check out Nosferatu: A Symphony of Horror.

Bram Stoker’s Dracula

Over the years, there have been many attempts to retell the story of Dracula, but one of the most successful remains Francis Ford Coppola’s 1992 dramatic horror starring Gary Oldman, Winona Ryder, Anthony Hopkins, and Keanu Reeves. Oldman plays the Count in one of his most outrageously iconic performances to date, and the film succeeds in bringing a dazzling operatic drama to Bram Stoker’s dark story.

Nosferatu the Vampyre

Director Werner Herzog’s contribution to the lore of Dracula arrived in 1979’s unmissable Nosferatu the Vampyre. This take, heavily influenced by Murnau’s 1922 silent classic, sees Klaus Kinski put on a performance to rival that of Max Schreck and delves into the tortured and conflicted soul of the protagonist. Herzog’s masterful retelling of Stoker’s story is an utterly unique take that features captivating visuals and performances not to be missed by fans of Nosferatu.

Interview with the Vampire

Departing from stories based on Bram Stoker’s novel, Interview with the Vampire is based on author Anne Rice’s 1976 novel of the same name. The film starring Tom Cruise, Brad Pitt, Kirsten Dunst, and Christian Slater follows Louis de Pointe du Lac (Pitt), a man claiming to be a 200-year-old vampire, as he recounts his life to a skeptical reporter (Slater). If you’re looking for another classic suspenseful vampire film that tells a new story in the genre and explores the question of immortality in more depth, make sure to include Interview with the Vampire.

The Last Voyage of the Demeter

This 2023 supernatural thriller directed by André Øvredal is based on one chapter of Bram Stoker’s Dracula called ‘The Captain's Log’. The chapter focuses on Dracula’s journey from Transylvania to London, hidden aboard the ship the Demeter and feeding off of the crew members at night. While it is overall not the best of vampire films, the suspense of the hidden menace as well as Liam Cunningham’s performance as the ship’s captain make the Last Voyage of the Demeter a great addition to a cosy night of vampire film watching.

30 Days of Night

David Slade directs this 2007 vampire horror starring Josh Hartnett based on a comic book series of the same name. Once more expanding the vampiric lore without retelling Bram Stoker’s story, 30 Days of Night is one of the most directly horror-based films on the list. Taking place in a small town in Alaska during the polar night, the townsfolk find themselves set upon by vampires for 30 days — the largest stretch of darkness all year.

Shadow of the Vampire

This 2000 gothic horror gets meta with the subject of Nosferatu. Starring John Malkovich and Willem Dafoe, Shadow of the Vampire focuses on the making of the original 1922 silent film, with Malkovich playing the increasingly distraught director Murnau as he comes to realise that Max Schreck (Dafoe), the actor portraying the Count, is in fact a real vampire. With plenty of nods to the original silent film, and excellent performances by Malkovich and Dafoe (the latter was nominated for a Best Supporting Actor at the Oscars), Shadow of a Vampire isn’t one to miss.

Let the Right One In

This Swedish production from 2008 remains one of the most compelling vampire films of the 21st century thus far. This bloody yet heartfelt take sees a child vampire and her guardian struggle to blend into a small town, where she forms a bond with the outcast boy next door. Their connection grows, even as her identity and the harsh reality it comes with is revealed. If you want a film that remains within the vampire horror genre, but features a more modern, relationship-oriented story than Nosferatu, be sure to check out Let the Right One In.

Renfield

It seems Nicholas Hoult’s stint in the vampiric world has simply continued with Nosferatu, because in 2023 he also starred in Renfield as the titular lackey. Renfield is the fanatical servant to Dracula in Bram Stoker’s novel, and this film sees him take centre stage in modern day New Orleans, where he attends a 12-step group for recovering co-dependents to try and extract himself from the relationship with the Count. Nicolas Cage plays a spectacularly overbearing Dracula, and it’s not one to be missed if you’re looking for a lighthearted vampire film.

What We Do in the Shadows

What We Do in the Shadows is perhaps one of the best comedies overall of the 21st century thus far. This vampire mockumentary is created by New Zealanders Taika Waititi and Jemaine Clement, and stars the duo alongside Jonathan Brugh, Cori Gonzalez-Macuer, and Stu Rutherford. The film follows the lives of vampires living in a flat-share in modern Wellington, New Zealand. Complete with spats about whose turn it is to wash the dishes, run-ins with the local werewolves, and pandering wannabe familiars, What We Do in the Shadows can bring a bit of fun to the otherwise dark world of vampire movies.

Robert Eggers is one of the most celebrated horror directors of the 21st century thus far. Coming from a background in production design, he released his first feature film in 2015 with the critically acclaimed folk horror The Witch. Since then, he has solidified his reputation as a director who masterfully crafts his films by blending horror elements with folklore, and a dark aesthetic that prioritises historical accuracy. With his latest release Nosferatu now in cinemas, now is the perfect time to check out the rest of his short but impressive back catalogue. Find out where you can stream all of Robert Eggers’ films from the UK below!

How (and where) to watch Robert Eggers’ best films

After working for years as a production designer, Robert Eggers released his first feature film with 2015’s The Witch. The film stars Anya Taylor-Joy in her debut role, in which she plays a young puritan girl suspected of performing witchcraft that led to the disappearance of her baby brother. The Witch brought Eggers much critical and fan attention, and left audiences excited to see what he would make next.

• The Witch (2015)
• The Lighthouse (2019)
• The Northman (2022)
• Nosferatu (2024)

His next project, The Lighthouse, did not disappoint. The film stars Robert Pattinson and Willem Dafoe as 19th century lighthouse keepers isolated in a remote lighthouse in New England, where reality becomes blurred after a powerful storm. Based on an unfinished poem by Edgar Allan Poe of the same name, The Lighthouse succeeded in further confirming Eggers’ reputation as a formidable horror filmmaker.

Eggers’ next project, The Northman, incorporated much of his signature interest in folklore and mythology into an epic historical action film. Taking place in medieval Scandinavia during the time of the Vikings, The Northmen tells the story of Amleth — a character from Scandinavian folklore that went on to inspire Shakespeare’s Hamlet. Amleth, a viking warrior prince, is portrayed by Alexander Skarsgård, who stars alongside Nicole Kidman and several of Eggers’ previous collaborators, including Anya Taylor-Joy and Willem Dafoe. 

Eggers’ latest film, Nosferatu, is a retelling of the iconic German silent film from 1922 of the same name, which was based on Bram Stoker’s seminal novel Dracula. The film’s aesthetic is heavily inspired by the source material, but Eggers adds his own brand of storytelling to make the film truly his own.

Daniel Craig is one of the most popular British actors of our time. He is perhaps best known for bringing his rugged charisma to the role of James Bond in five films from 2006 to 2021. In addition to playing 007, Craig has starred in a number of dramatic and comedic roles throughout his career that demonstrate his great range and versatility as an actor. Check out all of Daniel Craig’s best movies below, and find out where you can stream them online from the UK!

Skyfall

This Bond film from 2012 makes the top of the list because, while every Bond film has a high-stakes plot, none before or since has packed quite the same emotional punch. This film dismantles the MI6 system as we had known it and forces Bond to confront his own painful past. Daniel Craig masterfully carries the character through the film with all of the swagger we’ve come to know and love from his Bond, but also the raw emotionality of such a character finally facing himself.

Knives Out

If you thought Daniel Craig was a one-trick pony, you’d be proven wrong by Knives Out. This 2019 mystery sees Craig star as Benoit Blanc, a famous detective hired to solve the locked-door murder of bestselling author Harlan Thrombey. Craig puts on an American Southern drawl that somehow works in its over-the-topness — although it must be said that it is an entirely fictitious accent. But Craig’s eccentric, perceptive, and flamboyant portrayal of the character melds the star-studded production into a perfect Agatha Christie-style murder mystery that went on to spawn a franchise.

Queer

This 2024 film from director Luca Guadagnino sees Craig once again masterfully step away from his action-star type casting to play William Lee, a World War II veteran living in Mexico City who becomes infatuated with a younger man while in the throes of his own addictions. This love story sees Craig bring out one of the most vulnerable and tragic performances of his career.

Defiance

In this 2008 war film, Daniel Craig plays Tuvia Bielski who, together with his brother Zus, led a resistance group that saved many Jewish lives in Belarus during the Nazi occupation. Here Craig’s rugged charisma shines through as the leader of the group, fighting against enormous odds in the freezing wintery woods of Belarus.

Casino Royale

In 2006, Daniel Craig stepped into the fitted tux of James Bond for the first time in Casino Royale. This action-packed film brought the 007 back in style and introduced Craig’s iteration of the character as a swaggering, charismatic, and compellingly macho hero — while adding a tone of ironic self-reflection necessary to make Bond still palatable to modern audiences. 

Layer Cake

This 2004 action-crime film provided a strong confirmation of Craig's qualification to play James Bond. In Layer Cake, he plays a criminal in London who abides by strong moral principles while playing a vital role in the production and distribution of cocaine. Although he’s looking to leave the business, he is tasked with completing two final tasks that prove much trickier than expected.

Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery

In this 2021 sequel to Knives Out, Craig reprises his role as Detective Benoit Blanc in a Netflix production featuring another all-star cast. Craig once again busts out his over the top antics as the Southern detective while solving a compelling mystery.

Lucky Logan

Steven Soderbergh’s 2017 action-comedy film sees Craig try out a Southern US American accent for the first time. Playing the subtly named explosives expert Joe Bang, Craig delivers one heck of a performance opposite Adam Driver and Channing Tatum. The two play brothers who assemble a team of criminals to help them rob the Charlotte Motor Speedway while evading law enforcement.

Infamous

This 2006 drama focused on the life and career of author Truman Capote who, while writing his book ‘In Cold Blood’ built a complicated relationship with one of the incarcerated killers, Perry Smith. Craig plays the murderer behind bars, portraying him as an intelligent, emotional, and traumatised man whose past experiences led his life to take the darkest of turns.

The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo

In this 2011 David Fincher adaptation of Stieg Larsson’s novel of the same name, Craig plays journalist Mikael Blomkvist, the founder of Millennium magazine who is known for ruthlessly exposing government corruption. Starring opposite Rooney Mara as the tough-as-nails hacker Lisbeth Salander, Craig delivers a steadfast performance as the weight of the mystery the duo are investigating unfolds.

However, UK audiences made their preferences clear with the captivating French drama Anatomy of a Fall, outstripping Oppenheimer and taking the top position.

Dune: Part Two, Godzilla Minus One, and Late Night with the Devil were not part of the 2024 Oscars race, but still found their way onto the year’s most popular movies on streaming services. It’s also worth noting that Dune: Part Two was released in cinemas in 2024 and has been available to stream for a shorter period of time than 2023 titles like Oppenheimer and Barbie. As one of the summer’s big box office hits, it’s no wonder fans wanted to revisit Denis Villeneuve’s film when it became available to stream on several platforms.

Japan’s Godzilla Minus One debuted in cinemas in the UK at the end of December 2023 and was the second highest-grossing film after Wonka during its opening weekend. Godzilla Minus One was then released worldwide for streaming on Netflix in June 2024, where it became an instant fan favourite. The final entry on the list, Late Night with the Devil, was acquired by Amazon’s Shudder horror channel after its debut at SXSW. After a stint in cinemas, the supernatural horror film became available to stream on Amazon Prime in mid-April 2024.

Home Alone is one of the most beloved Christmas classics from the 1990s. The first two films star Macaulay Culkin as Kevin McCallister, a young boy who accidentally gets left behind over Christmas and winds up expertly defending this home from a couple of inept thieves. Over the next two decades, a total of six Home Alone films were released. Check out how (and where) to watch all the Home Alone movies in order below!

How to watch the Home Alone movies in order

Luckily for us, it’s fairly easy to watch the Home Alone movies in order. Because the order of release is the same as the chronological order, you can simply start with the 1990 classic and proceed all the way to the end. Home Alone 3 and The Holiday Heist are completely standalone films, while the other instalments feature a few overlapping characters.

• Home Alone (1990)
• Home Alone 2: Lost in New York (1992)
• Home Alone 3 (1997)
• Home Alone 4 (2002)
• Home Alone: The Holiday Heist (2012)
• Home Sweet Home Alone (2021)

The first two films star Macauley Culkin as the adorable Kevin McCallister, a crafty young boy who finds himself all alone on Christmas eve as a pair of thieves attempt to break in and rob his house. Over the course of the film, Kevin finds creative ways to thwart the thieves as they get increasingly more battered and frustrated by failing to carry out what seemed like an easy operation. The first three Home Alone films are written and created by the legendary filmmaker John Hughes, and the first two are directed by Chris Columbus. Joe Pesci and Daniel Stern star as the two thieves, and Catherine O’Hara and John Heard play Kevin’s worried and overwhelmed parents.

Home Alone 3 features an all new cast, with Alex D Linz starring as 8-year-old Alex Pruitt as he is — wait for it — left alone at home and must defend his house, this time from a band of international terrorists.

Home Alone 4 returns us to the McCallister family, but with an almost completely new cast. Peter McCallister (now played by Jason Beghe) is divorcing Kate (now played by Clare Carey), and invites the kids to spend Christmas with him and his girlfriend at her family mansion, where a group of royals are also being hosted. The film sees the return of one of the thieves, Marv, although this time he’s played by French Stewart instead of Daniel Stern.

Home Alone: The Holiday Heist pivots to focus on a new family, the Baxters, after they relocate from California to Maine. During the holiday season, the young Finn Baxter (played by Christian Martyn) must defend the new family home alone from a group of thieves.

In 2021, a sixth instalment was released with Home Sweet Home Alone. The film focuses on a new family and stars Archie Yates as the young Max Mercer who gets left at home, Rob Delaney and Ellie Kemper as a couple who try to break into Max’s home to retrieve an item they believe he stole, and Aisling Bea as Max’s mother Carol. Other cast members include Kenan Thompson, Pete Holmes, and Chris Parnell, and Devin Ratray makes a cameo appearance reprising his role as Buzz McCallister.

Since Nick Park released his first Wallace and Gromit short film in 1989, audiences the world over have fallen in love with the now iconic claymation inventor and beagle duo. The films and television series take place in a stop-motion claymation world and revolve around a northern English inventor, Wallace, and his smart and faithful dog, Gromit. Wallace loves cheese and has a passion for inventing complex machines for mundane tasks. Gromit is often the more reasonable one, but as he’s non-verbal he mostly resorts to facial expressions to get his feelings across.

With a new Wallace and Gromit feature film, Vengeance Most Fowl, set to be released on December 25, 2024 on BBC iPlayer (and on January 3, 2025 on Netflix), what better time to rewatch all of the Wallace and Gromit movies and TV series in order? Check out the JustWatch guide below to find out where you can stream every Wallace and Gromit title!

Wallace and Gromit short films in order

Between 1989 and 2008, Nick Park created four short films produced by Aardman Animations that introduced the iconic duo and solidified their status as positive cultural ambassadors. In A Grand Day Out, Wallace and Gromit run out of cheese and decide to depart on a rocket to the moon for more — since the moon is made of cheese, of course! 

• A Grand Day Out (1989)
• The Wrong Trousers (1993)
• A Close Shave (1995)
• A Matter of Loaf and Death (2008)

In The Wrong Trousers, Wallace gifts Gromit a pair of self-invented techno-trousers for his birthday. Meanwhile, they take on a boarder at the house: a devious penguin called Feathers McGraw, who wants to trick Wallace into helping him steal a diamond. After three decades, Feathers McGraw is set to appear once again in a prominent role in the upcoming film Vengeance Most Fowl.

A Close Shave sees Wallace and Gromit go up against a sinister dog, Preston, who is illegally rustling sheep. The short introduces Shaun the Sheep, who went on to have his own spin-off series and films. In the final short, A Matter of Loaf and Death, Wallace and Gromit face off against a serial killer who’s been offing bakers around town.

Wallace and Gromit feature-length films in order

With the success of the shorts, in 2005 Wallace and Gromit got their first feature-length film in The Curse of the Were-Rabbit. The film parodies classic monster movies and features the duo as pest control agents attempting to rid the town from a hoard of rabbits, including one giant one, before the annual Giant Vegetable Competition.

• The Curse of the Were-Rabbit (2005)
• Vengeance Most Fowl (2024)

In 2024, Wallace and Gromit return with a new feature-length film, Vengeance Most Fowl. The film brings back the villain from The Wrong Trousers, Feathers McGaw, and audiences will find out how he is behind a sinister plot involving garden gnomes gone bad.

Wallace and Gromit TV series in order

There are two Wallace and Gromit television series. Cracking Contraptions is a 10-episode miniseries featuring episodes that run 1 to 3 minutes and show Wallace’s various inventions.

• Wallace & Gromit's Cracking Contraptions (2002)
• Wallace & Gromit's World of Invention (2010)

World of Invention is a mix of live-action and claymation and features real-life inventions and their creators from around the world, with cuts of Wallace and Gromit sketches to break up the episodes.

Watch all the Wallace and Gromit movies and TV series in order

There is some overlap between the short films, feature-length films, and television series, so if you are keen to watch all the Wallace and Gromit franchise in order of release, check out the complete list below:

Amy Adams is one of the most talented and celebrated American actresses of the 21st century. The award-winning actress has starred in an array of movies across genres, including as a fairytale princess in the comedy-musical Enchanted and as an interpreter for new alien creatures in the sci-fi drama Arrival.

Check out some of Amy Adams’ best film performances below, and find out where you can watch all the movies on the list below!

Arrival

Denis Villeneuve’s 2016 sci-fi drama Arrival features Amy Adams as a linguist brought in to find a way to communicate with aliens who arrived on a ship from outer space. Throughout the film, Adams brings an emotional and thought-provoking performance as Dr Louise Banks, as she uses her knowledge and empathy to develop a radical approach to communicating with beings beyond human comprehension.

Nocturnal Animals

In this 2016 psychological-thriller from writer-director Tom Ford, Adams stars opposite Jake Gyllenhaal as his character’s estranged ex-wife, Susan. After Susan receives a copy of the book written by her ex-husband, Edward, as she reads she starts to understand the book and its dark nature mirror their relationship and the pain it left in its wake. Adams’ performance as a wealthy gallery owner, now neglected by her current husband, trapped within her own patterns is not one to miss.

Enchanted

Moving on to lighter fare, Enchanted stars Adams as Giselle, a fairytale princess from the land of Andalasia. When her evil mother-in-law-to-be, in an attempt to stay in power, pushes her into the ‘real world’, Giselle finds herself lost in the live-action New York City trying to get back to Andalasia. In this 2007 rom-com musical, Adams stars opposite Patrick Dempsey and James Marsden — the first as a divorce lawyer who helps her navigate NYC, and the latter as her Prince Charming from Andalasia singing and dancing his way through the city trying to find her. In this film, and its 2022 followup Disenchanted, Adams shows off her comedic and vocal chops.

Big Eyes

Amy Adams stars in director Tim Burton’s 2014 comedy-drama about the true story of American artist Margaret Keane, whose second husband, Walter Keane, took credit for her distinguished paintings featuring characters with large eyes. Adams’ performance captures Margeret’s journey from trusting wife to empowered artist, as she attempts to claim mastery over her own success.

Nightbitch

This 2024 black comedy adapted by Marielle Heller from Rachel Yoder’s novel of the same name stars Adams as an artist turned stay-at-home mother caring for her young son. While she processes the change in the direction of her career, body, and relationships, she also starts to realise she may be turning into a dog. This film brings together Adams’ comedic prowess along with her ability to capture the complex emotional stages in a woman’s life.

Junebug

This 2005 comedy-drama from director Phil Morrison features Amy Adams in the role that launched her career and gave her an Academy Award nomination for Best Supporting Actress. She plays Ashley, the bubbly, young, pregnant sister to George. When George brings his new wife Madeleine to visit the family in South Carolina, Ashley and Madeleine strike up a friendship. In this film, Adams brings an infectious enthusiasm and raw emotion to her performance that makes Junebug for that reason alone worth watching.

American Hustle

In this 2013 black comedy, Adams stars opposite Christian Bale as a con artist forced to participate in an elaborate FBI sting operation after getting caught. The film also stars Jennifer Lawrence, Bradley Cooper, and Jeremy Renner, and was nominated for ten Academy Awards, including Best Picture and a Best Actress nod for Adams. Her performance as Sydney sees her expertly playing a variety of roles as she goes undercover, and really brings home just how talented a performer she is.

Disenchanted

This 2022 follow-up to the beloved 2007 film Enchanted sees Giselle, now married to Robert, some 10 years after the events of the first film. After having a baby, the couple decide to move to the suburban town Monroeville, which sees them confront the mundanity of everyday life. But when Giselle wishes for her life to become a fairy tale, the town transforms into Monrolasia, and in that land Giselle goes up against the domineering Malvina Monro while discovering she might be somewhat of a baddie herself.

Doubt

John Patrick Shanley’s 2008 acclaimed drama Doubt saw Adams star opposite Meryl Streep in a performance nominated for Best Supporting Actress by the Academy. In this film Adams plays Sister James, a nun and confidant to Streep’s Sister Aloysius Beauvier who accuses Philip Seymour Hoffman as Father Brendan Flynn of abusing an altar boy at their parish. While Streep and Hoffman’s performances dominate the film, Adams more than holds her own as the meek history teacher trying to keep her faith in the face of doubt.

The Woman in the Window

In this 2021 psychological-thriller from director Joe Wright, Adams stars as Anna, an agoraphobic child psychologist who, in the aftermath of a disintegrated marriage, retreats into her brownstone apartment and finds entertainment watching her neighbours from a safe distance. But when she witnesses one neighbour seemingly being murdered, she finds herself in a state where the lines between  reality and illusion are increasingly blurred.

The children’s movies following the wholesome tale of the loveable Paddington Bear have brought audiences closer to their tenderest hearts since 2014. Writer and director Paul King helmed the first two films, which are based on the beloved character created by Michael Bond in the late 1950s, giving him an iconic live-action debut. Since then, Paddington has seen the release of a sequel in 2017 that is perhaps even more beloved than the first, and a third film (directed by Dougal Wilson) taking Paddington and the Browns to the Peruvian rainforest released in 2024.

You never know quite what sort of film you’re going to get next with director Ridley Scott, but you almost always know it’s going to be different to his previous one, and more often than not it’s going to be good. The British film-maker has been at the top of the business for nearly 50 years and now, at the incredible age of 86, he has a new film, Gladiator II, that could be one of the biggest of 2024. See below for our ranking of the best Ridley Scott films and where to stream them in the United Kingdom.

Ridley Scott came out of the gate quickly in 1977 with the critically acclaimed historical drama The Duellists, and he soon had a couple of masterpieces in the bag. His second film, Alien, is still unrivalled in the genre it helped to create: creeping, monster-driven suspense horror, set in the black void of space. If creating the classic character of Ripley weren’t enough, Scott’s next film Blade Runner, a sci-fi neo-noir, made Harrison Ford equally iconic as Rick Deckard.

Scott’s career is not without its fallow periods - he had one after Blade Runner, making a few relatively forgettable films before roaring back with Thelma & Louise, a feminist road movie that has grown to become a highly influential classic. His next big hit, probably his biggest, came nine years later in the form of Gladiator, a Roman epic with the action of a blockbuster and the tight, simple story of a claustrophobic character piece. 

The great director only became more unpredictable from there, working again with Gladiator star Russell Crowe but remoulding him as a romantic lead in the surprisingly gentle A Good Year, before pivoting into tough mobster drama with American Gangster. The Alien franchise was revisited, to decent effect if not to the standard of the stellar original, in Prometheus and Alien: Covenant. 

By 2015 it seemed as if Scott’s career might finally be tailing off a little, but then he came back yet again with The Martian, starring Matt Damon as a man stranded on the Red Planet. Ambitious, witty and imaginative, it’s one of Scott’s finest blockbusters.

Perhaps the most remarkable thing about Scott’s most recent pictures is how talked-about they are: directors who keep going into their old age tend to churn out movies that are politely well received by their fans without making too much wider impact, but Scott still has a knack for cultural relevance. In 2021, after a long absence either side of the Covid pandemic, he delivered both the challenging period drama The Last Duel and the mischievous biopic House of Gucci, following them in 2023 with a wildly ambitious epic, Napoleon. You wouldn’t put it past him to come up with a couple more hits, and perhaps a couple more interesting duds, before he finally folds away his director’s chair.

Where to watch the best Ridley Scott movies streaming online

In the meantime there is a large back catalogue to enjoy - see below for our take on Ridley Scott’s films, ranked from best to worst, and how to stream them.

It’s one of the biggest gaps between a film and its sequel in history: Gladiator II arrives in cinemas a full 24 years after the original Gladiator, also directed by Ridley Scott, was released. That film met with huge commercial success, spawned an array of catchphrases (“At my signal, unleash hell”; “Are you not entertained?”) and, in 2001, won five Oscars. Now Scott and the Gladiator brand are back, with an audience primed for the follow-up movie having either seen the original at the time, or caught up with it via streaming. If you haven’t got up to speed yet, do so via our streaming guide, below.

Gladiator made a superstar of Australian actor Russell Crowe, who had already found success in LA Confidential and The Insider, but was put on a new level by his lead role as Maximus, a Roman general who falls foul of the emperor, Commodus (Joaquin Phoenix) and is enslaved, with his family murdered. Swearing vengeance, Maximus takes the opportunity he is given when he is forced to become a gladiator, fighting to the death for the entertainment of Commodus and the citizens of Rome.

The new film takes advantage of the long lag between the two films by simply moving on by one generation. Paul Mescal is Lucius, the son of Maximus, played by child actor Spencer Treat Clark in the first film. Forced into slavery and then into combat when the corrupt and violent Empire invades his home in Numidia, Lucius fights in the presence of his mother, Lucilla, and the anti-corruption politician, Senator Gracchus. Connie Nielsen and Derek Jacobi reprise their roles, with new cast members including Pedro Pascal, Joseph Quinn and Denzel Washington.

Watching Gladiator and Gladiator II in a double bill is one of the more straightforward chronological binges you’ll ever complete. There is, however, one other thing you might want to stream if you want to be a real Gladiator completist: the 2000 film was based on Those About to Die, a 1958 book by Daniel P Mannix. Although the 2024 TV dramatisation of the same book is very different to Gladiator, it does have a subplot about a slave who becomes a famous arena warrior.

A third film, Gladiator III, is said to be in development - presumably Ridley Scott, who is now 86 years old, won’t wait another 24 years to make that. In case you’re wondering, films with an even bigger gap between the original and the sequel than Gladiator include The Hustler/The Color of Money (25 years), Coming to America/Coming 2 America (33 years) and Top Gun/Top Gun: Maverick (36 years), although none of those retained the original film’s director for the follow-up movie.

Where to watch all Gladiator movies streaming online

To stream both parts of the Gladiator film franchise, see our guide below.

Audiences eagerly returned to ancient Rome for the highly anticipated sequel to Ridley Scott’s 2000 masterpiece Gladiator with Gladiator II. The film stars Paul Mescal as Lucius, a man with claims to power in Rome who was sent to live far away from the city. He is dragged back into that polemic world when his village is destroyed by an invading Roman general, Marcus Acacius, played by Pedro Pascal. Intent on seeking both justice and revenge, Lucius enters the gladiatorial arena. 

After watching both the original Gladiator and Gladiator II, you might not want to leave those epic historical worlds behind just yet. So, check out these 10 movies and TV series similar to Gladiator 2 and find out where you can stream them below!

Kingdom of Heaven

After the success of Gladiator in 2000, director Ridley Scott returned to make another epic historical film in 2005 with Kingdom of Heaven, starring Orlando Bloom, Eva Green, Jeremy Irons, and Liam Neeson. It follows the story of a humble blacksmith, Barian (Bloom), who is enlisted to fight in the Crusades in the Holy Land and, after a perilous journey there, finds himself confronted with the brutal corruption and a struggle for power that sees him become one of the few defenders of the city of Jerusalem.

If you’re looking for a film with sweeping battles, epic historical drama, and political intrigue mixed with personal and moral struggles, look no further than Kingdom of Heaven. In addition, you can count on Ridley Scott’s signature epic style to take the emotional and historical stakes to the next level.

The Eagle

The Eagle is a 2011 epic historical drama directed by Kevin Macdonald, and stars Channing Tatum, Jamie Bell and Donald Sutherland. Tatum plays Marcus Flavius Aquila, the son of a senior centurion who disappeared along with his entire legion in Britain and goes there as a centurion intent on finding out what happened and restoring the lost legion’s eagle standard.

Like Gladiator II, The Eagle features epic battles mixed with personal stories of protagonists in the time of ancient Rome seeking to restore glory to their city or legion.

Those About to Die

This 2024 Amazon series explores the multifaceted layers of ancient Rome in 79 AD, when the city’s corrupt politicians struggle for power and delight in increasingly violent blood sport spectacles like chariot racing and gladiatorial games. The sports attract those looking for success, from horse breeders, gladiators and chariot racers to gamblers as they all converge on Rome trying to rise above the rest.

If you want a gritty look at the lives of many individuals trying to survive in ancient Rome at the time of the gladiators, Those About to Die provides a new perspective for fans of Gladiator II.

Barbarians

Barbarians is a German Netflix series from 2020 that lasted two seasons. It takes place during the Roman Empire when Roman forces occupied much of what was then called Germania. The story includes recounts of the rebellions led by the so-called ‘barbarian’ tribes as they resisted Roman rule.

Historians and archaeologists have praised Barbarians for its accurate depiction of life at the time, from the structure of the villages and plans for battle to its costume design. The series also gives more insight into the effect of the Roman Empire on the rest of Europe, which is sure to interest the more history-minded fans of Gladiator II. 

Rome

This sprawling two season HBO series ran from 2005 to 2007 and depicts the Roman Empire like never before. The series primarily focused on the lives of the rich and powerful, along with two centurions, as they navigate the complex political environment leading up to Julius Caesar’s rise to power and subsequent assassination, before leaning into the power struggle between Octavian and Mark Anthony.

While Rome is very much a product of early 2000s HBO, the series’ dramatic depiction of so many important events in the history of Rome makes it prime viewing for Gladiator II fans looking for something to watch that takes place in ancient Rome itself.

Braveheart

Although Braveheart takes place far from the setting of ancient Rome, it shares a lot thematically with Gladiator II. Both films feature strong protagonists intent on protecting or avenging their loved ones against far more powerful forces. Braveheart stars Mel Gibson as William Wallace, the leader of the Scottish rebellion against the English, destabilising the tyrannical rule of King Edward I.

I, Claudius

This iconic BBC miniseries from 1976 remains one of the best fictional accounts of the early days of the Roman Empire up until the death of Emperor Claudius. Rather than fixate on the epic battles and blood sport spectacles usual for films and series about ancient Rome, I, Claudius focuses on the interpersonal drama taking place within the elite circles of rulers, politicians, and their spouses as they backstab and seduce each other to gain a hold on power.

If you’re keen to see a series similar to Gladiator II that features far less violence and far more political and interpersonal drama, check out this iconic British series.

The Last of the Mohicans

This 1995 film stars Daniel Day-Lewis as a half-white, half-Native American member of the dwindling Mohican tribe who live peacefully alongside British colonists. But when two daughters of a British colonel are abducted, the tribe become involved in the bloody French and Indian War. Like in Gladiator II, the warrior protagonists are reluctantly dragged into gruesome conflicts created by those in power and find themselves in a struggle for survival and peace.

The Northman

This bloody historical action film from 2022 is directed by Robert Eggers and stars Alexander Skarsgård as Amleth, a viking prince who sets out on a quest to avenge the death of his father. Like Gladiator II, themes of vengeance and justice lie at the heart of The Northman, and while it takes place in Scandinavia rather than ancient Rome, the epic battles and political intrigue make it great viewing for anyone who was entertained by Gladiator II.

Spartacus 

This classic historical epic from 1960 was directed by iconic director Stanley Kubrick and stars Kirk Douglas as the legendary slave turned rebellion leader Spartacus. The story follows Spartacus as he is plucked from a mining pit and brought to Rome to become a gladiator. While there, he refuses to cooperate with some of the most heinous requests from Roman elites and winds up sparking a gladiator rebellion that morphs into an all-out slave rebellion against the Roman Republic.

Like Gladiator II, Spartacus focuses on an individual who goes against the grain in ancient Rome’s gladiatorial ring — bringing the battle to the elites who thought the blood sport was only for their entertainment.

When Silo first debuted in 2023 on Apple TV+, no one could have predicted its success in becoming one of the most popular series of the year. Based on author Hugh Howey’s book trilogy Wool, the series takes place in a dystopian reality in which humanity is forced to live in silos after the outside environment becomes uninhabitable. The story focuses on Juliette Nichols, an engineer who becomes entangled in a plot that brings her to start questioning the reality and regime under which they live.

The first episode of Silo Season 2 was released on November 15, 2024, and with episodes airing weekly you may be craving a little more dystopian drama on your screens. So, make sure to check out these 11 TV series like Silo, and find out where you can stream them by scrolling through the list below!

Snowpiercer

The series is set in a dystopian future 2026 in which the planet has frozen over due to climate change, leaving the human survivors seeking refuge aboard a massive thousand-and-one-car train known as Snowpiercer. The humans are divided into strict classes by compartment, and they are all held under the watchful eye of the mysterious Wilford at the helm of the train.

Snowpiercer is similar to Silo in its exploration of a dystopian future in which humans live in closed quarters surrounded by an uninhabitable world. It also has the criminal elements of Silo, in which a detective investigates a series of murders in the first season against the backdrop of class warfare about to boil over.

Ascension

This one-season series from 2014 takes place some 51 years into a space mission after a fictional President John F Kennedy — fearing the destruction of Earth during the Cold War — sends a ship to colonise a planet orbiting Proxima Centauri.  While on their way, a murder happens aboard the ship that sets off a series of events that get the team members questioning the true nature of their mission.

Like Silo, Ascension takes place in a closed setting with no access to the outside world. The series also starts out with a murder that causes those aboard the ship to start questioning what they are really doing there, and if their reality is in fact what they believe it to be.

Severance

In this dystopian sci-fi series from 2022, employees of Lumon Industries agree to “sever” their consciousness in a controversial procedure that makes them forget everything when they leave work and vice versa — dividing them into ‘Innie’ (at work) and ‘Outie’ (outside of work) personalities. But while one employee, Mark Scout, navigates an increasingly strange life at work, he discovers that his two lives in fact overlap.

Like Silo, Severance deals with a seemingly tightly controlled organisation that begins to show its weaknesses as time goes on. Both series feature a person in the middle whose suspicions about what is really going on start to grow, kicking off a series of revelatory escalating events.

Foundation

In a distant dystopian future, the galaxy is ruled by a dynasty of clones of the emperor Cleon. Mathematician Hari Seldon and his protogee Gaal present the conclusion found through his theory of ‘psychohistory’ that the current empire will fail unless human knowledge and history is somehow preserved. The regime grudgingly allows him to establish a way to store this knowledge in a place called the Foundation, while keeping their suspicions about the true nature of his activities.

While Foundation is not quite as spatially constricted as Silo, the political intrigue and the slow falling apart of a despotic ruling system are themes that tie the two series closely together.

Andor

This Star Wars story takes place in a galaxy far, far away some five years before the events of Rogue One and A New Hope. The series focuses on Cassian Andor as he goes from a thief to becoming a top spy for the Rebel Alliance. Like Silo, the series takes place in a dystopian setting where under the surface a great unrest is brewing that one main character slowly uncovers as time goes on.

From

In the close confines of a small town in the United States, those who enter cannot leave due to the evil creatures who lurk in the surrounding woods and terrify the residents at night. The town’s sheriff and other residents spend their time trying to survive while desperately plotting a way to escape.

Like Silo, From takes place within the confines of a small space with limited resources. As time goes on, the residents start to discover the larger plot lurking under the surface.

The Last of Us

Some twenty years after the outbreak of a deadly fungal pandemic, the world is plunged into a desperate struggle for survival. But when a young girl, Ellie, is discovered who appears to be immune to the disease, a smuggler named Joel is tasked with bringing her safely across the post-apocalyptic wasteland the US has become so she can help scientists develop a vaccine.

Like Silo, the Last of Us takes place in a post-apocalyptic setting where the surrounding environment is not only hostile but downright dangerous.

The Expanse

In a distant future, humans have successfully expanded beyond Earth to colonise the solar system. However, Earth’s political struggles continue to plague humanity — this time on a galaxy-wide scale. Caught in the mix in a key but mysterious role is a ship whose crew slowly uncover why they play such an important role in who wins in the struggle for power.

Like Silo, The Expanse takes place in closed quarters and deals with political intrigue and conspiracies that are slowly uncovered throughout the seasons.

The Peripheral

This series produced by the creators of Westworld takes place in a future in which a brother and sister, Burton and Flynne, are hired to test a new virtual reality game. While in the game, Flynne discovers that the VR has become blurred with actual reality and uncovers a secret that puts both her and her entire family at risk.

Much of The Peripheral takes place in the confines of a VR game and parallels Silo in the way the main characters uncover a much larger plot set up by the creators that has far reaching implications for them and everyone else. 

Station Eleven

Station Eleven takes place some twenty years after a deadly flu pandemic wipes out much of humanity, leaving the survivors to struggle to create a new order while holding on to what they lost. The series follows a group of survivors as they make their way through the post-apocalyptic world and try to rebuild a new society, even as a cult leader with sinister intentions tries to gain the upper hand.

Like Silo, Station Eleven takes place in a post-apocalyptic reality in which the survivors try to hold on to their humanity while establishing a new society.

Counterpart

Howard Silke is a quiet, low-level bureaucrat working for the Office of Interchange in Berlin, Germany. His life is turned upside down when a secret is revealed to him: that in 1987 a portal to a parallel world was opened up due to an East German experiment, and that the connection between the two worlds is hidden in the basement of the Office of Interchange. Howard realises that he also has a counterpart in the parallel world — a savvy agent who is part of a larger Cold War operation raging between the two worlds.

Like Silo, at Counterpart’s core is a conspiracy that threatens to destroy the world as we know it. The intrigue and mystery surrounding the plot, as well as the slow unfurling of the extent of the implications make for compelling viewing for any fan of Silo.
