7 new movies and TV shows to watch on Netflix, Prime Video, Disney+, and more this weekend (March 27)
The final weekend of March 2026 has arrived — and, with it, Daylight Savings begins once more in the UK, meaning those of us on British shores lose that extra hour in bed. Boo and hiss.
I’ll be consoling myself, then, with the latest batch of new movies and TV shows to drop on the world’s best streaming services. As always, we’ve tried to cater to as many genre fans as possible, so there should be something of interest to you in this week’s round-up. Read on, then, to find out what we recommend watching this weekend. — Tom Power, senior entertainment reporter
Daredevil: Born Again season 2 (Disney+)
The Man Without Fear is back. That’s right, Daredevil has returned to Disney+ for the next installment of his Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) TV show — that being, Daredevil: Born Again season 2.

Set six months after its predecessor’s finale, it reunites us with Matt Murdock and his vigilante alter-ego as he attempts to end New York Mayor Wilson Fisk’s reign of terror. With as much hyperviolence and melodrama as season 1 and this series’ Netflix forebear, it’s a slight improvement on last season, too. For more, check out my spoiler-light Daredevil: Born Again season 2 review.
Born Again season 2 episode 1 is out now on Disney+, and there’ll be two new episodes of the Marvel TV show to enjoy next week before it reverts back to a weekly release schedule. Oh, and before you stream it, find out everything we know about Daredevil: Born Again season 2. — TP
Something Very Bad is Going to Happen (Netflix)
Watch On
With a title like this, how can you not be intrigued by Netflix’s new horror show? Stranger Things creators the Duffer Brothers are producers on it, too, so if you’re a fan of one of that TV series, you#ll want to check this out.
Wedding nerves are common but Something Very Bad is Going to Happen takes it to the next level. In it, we follow couple Rachel and Nicky during the week before their wedding but, as you’ve probably guessed, something bad derails the festivities.
To find out what that is exactly, you’ll have to binge watch it this weekend. Trust me, it’s worth it. — Lucy Buglass, senior entertainment writer
Bait (Prime Video)
Watch On
Riz Ahmed leads the cast of Prime Video’s Bait, which follows Shah, an actor in London who suffers an existential crisis while auditioning for the role of James Bond.
Facing public backlash for his potential casting as the next 007, plus dealing with numerous difficult family relationships, Shah’s got a lot going on. Billed as a genre-bending comedy, each of the series’ episodes are 30 minutes apiece, so you can easily devour Bait in one sitting. — LB
For All Mankind season 5 (Apple TV)
Watch On
Is For All Mankind the boldest sci-fi drama of the last decade? Possibly. And, with season 5 of the Apple TV hit covering the growing tension between the Mars colony and Earth, one which threatens open rebellion, its latest installment could be the most explosive yet.
The Apple TV Original is truly unique in the genre space thanks to its engaging alt-history narrative. Nobody else is doing anything quite like it and I think things will only get better as the season progresses. — Jasmine Valentine entertainment reporter
Jo Nesbo’s Detective Hole (Netflix)
Watch On
Netflix doesn’t normally make its crime thillers incredibly gruesome, but that was before Jo Nesbo’s Detective Hole‘s came along. From prosthetic penises being destroyed to a woman dead inside a waterbed, it’s not a binge for the faint of heart.
All nine episodes are an absolute rollercoaster, and one of the final scenes in episode 10 made my stomach turn. On top of that, you’ll definitely never guess what’s coming next. If Nesbo isn’t the next Harlan Coben (i.e. having every story adapted for a bingeable streaming collection), I’ll eat my hat. — JV
Primate (Paramount+)
Watch On
Johannes Roberts’ latest horror movie, which is out now on Paramount+ in the US, follows an adopted chimpanzee who contracts rabies and becomes violent, turning a Hawaiian getaway into a living nightmare for everyone around him.
Those familiar with Roberts’ signature brand of natural horror, including shark movies like 47 Meters Down, will likely have a great time with this. He’s a master of making us scared of many animals, so Primate is a great choice for horror fans this weekend. — LB
Hannah Montana 20th Anniversary Special (Disney+)
Watch On
I guarantee that by the time you’ve finished reading this, you’ll have performed ‘The Best of Both Worlds’ entirely in your head. It’s genuinely incredible how much Miley Cyrus suits the Hannah Montana look after 20 years, even if so much has changed in between.
Frankly, the anniversary special is everything I wanted it to be. We revisit the show, reunite most of the cast, and even see Miley and father Billy Ray Cyrus together for the first time in what feels like forever. Of course, there’s an entire concert thrown in there too, so grab your diamante jeans and feather boas ASAP. — JV
