We’re entering the final weeks of summer movie season, and in August, streaming services are adding plenty of new programming to keep customers busy. Netflix will be releasing the second season of the Jason Bateman drama Ozark, along with its new British supernatural drama The Innocents (which has a particularly intriguing trailer featuring a cover of The Pixies’ “Where Is My Mind?”).
Amazon Prime will be adding its own new original series, including Agatha Christie, and Tom Clancy’s Jack Ryan, which stars John Krasinski in the title role. Per its usual routine, Amazon will also be adding a bevy of movie titles to its service, including the original dark comedy Gringo, the Adrian Lyne mindtrip Jacob’s Ladder, as well as writer-director David Koepp’s underrated horror flick Stir of Echoes. As another sign that Halloween is just a few months away, the service will also be adding the original The Blair Witch Project, as well as Darren Aronofsky’s celebrated — and reviled — Mother!
HBO Now will be wrapping up Sharp Objects with the season finale later this month, but new seasons of Ballers and Insecure will be starting up to make up for the balance. Terence Nance’s Random Acts of Flyness will also be kicking off early in August for its six-episode run.
As for things getting left behind, Netflix will be losing St. Vincent and The 40-Year-Old Virgin later this month, joining Finding Dory and the first three seasons of The Killing, both of which departed on August 1st. HBO, however, will be suffering a far greater loss: not only will The Great Muppet Caper and the Back to the Future trilogy be leaving HBO Now at the end of the month, but the first four Tremors films will be departing as well. We’ve included the full list of titles for all services below.
