Next month, on April 1st, Scarlett Johansson’s unusual and mature sci-fi film, Under the Skin, will be available to stream on Tubi. Tubi is a free, ad-supported platform where you can watch movies without even needing to create an account! Under the Skin is just one of many excellent, but often overlooked, sci-fi movies coming to the service. It would pair well with Duncan Jones’ Moon, featuring Sam Rockwell – they’re very different films, but together they’d make a fantastic double feature for sci-fi fans.

As a longtime Spider-Man fan, I always appreciated how Tobey Maguire’s version stood out with those organic web-shooters. Sure, ditching the mechanical ones meant we didn’t see as much of Peter Parker’s genius inventor side, but it gave his Spider-Man a signature ability that even Spider-Man: No Way Home acknowledged. And let’s not forget Spider-Man 2 – arguably one of the greatest superhero films ever – where losing those organic webs became a really powerful story point. Now, with Spider-Man: Brand New Day on the horizon, it sounds like Tom Holland’s Spider-Man might be getting that ability back, which is exciting. It also gives the MCU a chance to really shake things up and put a fresh spin on the sequel, Spider-Man 2.

While characters like Booster Gold and Zatanna have appeared in shows such as Smallville—though even dedicated comic book fans might not realize it—many other DC superheroes haven’t yet made their live-action debut in movies or on television.

Taylor Sheridan, the creator of Yellowstone, brought us the popular Paramount+ series Tulsa King, which first aired in 2022. The show recently returned for its third season last fall, and filming for season 4 began in November. However, there was no announced release date for the new episodes starring Sylvester Stallone.

Titus Welliver famously played Harry Bosch in the original series and its spin-off, Bosch: Legacy. However, the new show, Bosch: Start of Watch, is set much earlier in Bosch’s life, requiring a younger actor. Cameron Monaghan has taken on the role. He recently shared a photo on Instagram from the set, showing him seated in his chair with “Harry Bosch” displayed on the back. In the picture, Monaghan is looking towards a police car, giving fans a sneak peek of his portrayal of the character. You can see the post below.

In the historical drama The Eagle, Channing Tatum plays Marcus Aquila, a Roman soldier, in a story set in 140 AD. While ambitious in scope, the movie wasn’t a hit with either viewers or critics when it came out.

The second Alien film is considered a classic of the genre, and it features a truly unforgettable scene with a line – “Get away from her, you bitch!” – that remains iconic even after four decades. With the Alien movies now available on HBO Max, it’s the perfect time to revisit why this line helped turn Ripley into an action movie legend.

Spy movies are full of suspense and excitement, blending mystery with fast-paced action and genuine emotion. Some of the best ones are even better than many James Bond films, and one in particular is often considered the greatest action movie of all time.

Released in 2023, The Super Mario Bros. Movie proved to be quite popular with audiences, even though critics were more divided. While critics gave it a 59% rating on Rotten Tomatoes, viewers loved it, giving it a 95% rating. The film was a huge financial success, earning over $1.36 billion globally. Nintendo brought the iconic Mario (voiced by Chris Pratt) and Luigi (voiced by Charlie Day) to the big screen in a new animated adventure, and now the famous plumbing brothers are embarking on a spacefaring journey.

Pluto TV, a streaming service from Paramount Skydance, works a lot like traditional TV with its channel-based format. It’s free to use and offers a diverse collection of movies and shows, both old favorites and new releases. In April 2026, you can expect a wide variety of genres, including films like The Social Network, The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly, and Clueless – something for everyone to enjoy.
