While several shows have attempted to copy the success of Reacher, few have matched the popularity and critical acclaim of the Alan Ritchson series. Despite some minor inconsistencies, Reacher consistently earns positive reviews and attracts a huge audience. Currently, it’s easily Prime Video’s most valuable action thriller, and rightfully deserves to be called the ultimate ‘dad show’.
Originally, the movie Clayface was scheduled to come out on September 11, 2026. However, Warner Bros. has changed plans and will now release Practical Magic 2 – bringing back Sandra Bullock and Nicole Kidman – on that date instead. Practical Magic 2 was previously planned to be released the week after, on September 18, 2026.
Sometimes TV shows only last one season, either by design or due to a lack of popularity. But surprisingly, this can be a good thing. These shorter shows often tell a complete and satisfying story, with well-developed characters, in a way that longer shows sometimes struggle to achieve. Especially when planned as a single season, they can deliver a focused and confident narrative.

Stephen Sommers wrote and directed The Mummy, a film starring Brendan Fraser as Rick O’Connell, a treasure hunter similar to Indiana Jones. He leads the fight against the dangerous ancient villain Imhotep. The movie was a big surprise success at the start of the 2000s, earning over $422 million in the same year that George Lucas reintroduced Star Wars with The Phantom Menace. Its popularity led to a whole series of films, which, while not as successful recently, might be revisited soon.
Upcoming Star Wars films and series generally steer clear of the time period covered in the prequel movies. Star Wars: Maul – Shadow Lord gets the closest, but it still takes place during the Empire’s rule. However, one new movie will revisit a significant element from The Clone Wars era, but set it at a later time.
HBO’s new series promises a deeper dive into the world of Harry Potter, and its longer format could allow for that. However, some fans are starting to question whether a new Harry Potter series is really necessary. To succeed, the show needs to offer something fresh and avoid simply retreading familiar ground if it wants to attract an audience.
The Twilight Saga, based on Stephenie Meyer’s books, tells the story of the intense and often challenging relationship between human teenager Bella Swan (played by Kristen Stewart) and vampire Edward Cullen (Robert Pattinson). The series follows their love story from the beginning and explores their journey as they build a family—a family that sparked a lot of debate. While critics weren’t impressed, Twilight was a huge success at the box office.
This show consistently delivers unexpected episodes, often exploring sensitive or everyday topics with insightful detail. A prime example is “Bad Moon Rising,” which tackles the subject of PMS and showcases a particularly strong performance by Patricia Heaton.
When Star Wars returns to cinemas later this year, it will be a continuation of the stories begun on streaming services. While the series started strong in 2019 and quickly became popular, the third season received mixed reviews, and the upcoming Mandalorian film isn’t generating the same level of anticipation as previous Star Wars releases. The initial trailer for The Mandalorian and Grogu also received a lukewarm response. Because of this, the next trailer, which will be shown during the Super Bowl, has a real opportunity to remind fans why the series was so beloved. To do that, it needs to focus on certain key elements.
