The battle turns bloody when George 'Smiley' Greene (Ben Foster) is released from prison and starts killing the competition.

New on Peacock

Wicked: For Good

• Genre: Fantasy musical
• Run time: 2h 17m
• Director: Jon M. Chu
• Cast: Ariana Grande, Cynthia Erivo, Jeff Goldblum

Hunted by the Wizard of Oz (Jeff Goldblum) and his allies, Elphaba (Cynthia Erivo) continues to fight for the rights of talking animals and encourages others to take up her cause. Struck by tragedy, betrayal, and failure, Elphaba embraces the wickedness she’s been accused of in the second act of the Broadway musical adaptation.

New on Shudder

1000 Women in Horror

• Genre: Documentary
• Run time: 1h 36m
• Director: Donna Davies

Women directors, actors, and creators have been shaping the horror genre since its earliest days. The documentary explores their impact and how films ranging from Alien to The Bride of Frankenstein have been used to express women’s fears while also providing a way to break free of gender stereotypes.

New on Starz

Now You See Me: Now You Don’t

• Genre: Heist
• Run time: 1h 52m
• Director: Ruben Fleischer
• Cast: Jesse Eisenberg, Woody Harrelson, Rosamund Pike

The magicians known as The Horsemen teach their tricks to a new generation to steal an enormous diamond from money launderer Veronika Vanderberg (Rosamund Pike). The third film in the series is more like a reboot than a sequel, eschewing magic tricks for puzzle solving as the Horsemen and their proteges navigate a mansion that’s basically a big escape room.

From our review:

I understand why so much importance was placed on the next generation of Horsemen in this movie, and if this wasn’t the first Now You See Me movie in a decade, I wouldn’t complain. The original cast are all in their 40s — save for Harrelson, who is 64 — and bringing in a trio of Gen Z magicians is the sort of thing that could keep this franchise going for years to come, catching the eyes of a younger audience. I just wish it hadn't been at the expense of the real magic of Now You See Me: the Horsemen themselves.

New to rent

The Forbidden City

• Genre: Kung fu
• Run time: 2h 18m
