Anne Hathaway returns as Andy Sachs, now an intrepid journalist who takes a job as features editor at Runway Magazine.

Stanley Tucci returns as Nigel and Emily Blunt hams it up perfectly as Emily, now a big shot at Dior.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/li>\n \tThe Super Mario Galaxy Movie (July 30 on Peacock)<\/p>\n \t\t\t \n\t\u201cThe Super Mario Galaxy Movie\u201d is the first billion-dollar grosser of 2026 and should keep its blockbuster momentum going when it arrives on streaming this month via Peacock.

This one brings the lovable detective to Malta as she also wrestles with her forthcoming wedding to\u00a0Lord Tewkesbury (Louis Partridge). From Variety\u2019s review:<\/a>\u00a0\u201cLight on story but lavishly designed with a romantic Maltese backdrop, the latest Holmes whodunit gifts us another compulsively watchable escapade\u2026 the film presents its grandest act of rebellion by refusing to succumb to empty \u2018you-go-girl\u2019 feminism, where strong heroines are often defined only by their physical strength. Needless to say Enola Holmes, Sherlock\u2019s absolute intellectual equal, has plenty of that. But she has a proudly romantic heart too, one she knows she doesn\u2019t have to compromise to become anything she wants.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/li>\n \tHeartstopper Forever (July 17 on Netflix)<\/p>\n \t\t\t \n\tNetflix\u2019s \u201cHeartstopper\u201d comes to an end with a feature-length movie finale that concludes the love story of Nick Nelson (Kit Connor) and Charlie Spring (Joe Locke). The show\u2019s third season ended with the couple having sex for the first time, as Charlie found a new confidence following his struggles with his mental health. Nick, however, is contemplating which university he wants to attend. What Nick\u2019s impending graduation could mean for their relationship \u2014\u00a0not to mention for Nick and Charlie\u2019s friend group \u2014 paves the way for the movie.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n \tLee Cronin\u2019s The Mummy (July 3 on HBO Max)<\/p>\n \t\t\t \n\t\u201cThe Hole in the Ground\u201d and \u201cEvil Dead Rise\u201d director Lee Cronin put a new spin on \u201cThe Mummy\u201d and found decent success at the box office with a $90 million worldwide haul earlier this year. This take on the classic movie monster\u00a0follows what happens after the daughter of a journalist disappears into the desert without a trace. Eight years later, the broken family is shocked when she is returned to them, as what should be a joyful reunion turns into a living nightmare.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n \tReminders of Him (July 10 on Peacock)<\/p>\n \t\t\t \n\tColleen Hoover continued her strong run at the box office earlier this year when the \u201cReminders of Him\u201d adaptation earned $89 million at the worldwide box office. Maika Monroe headlines the romance drama as an ex-inmate who tries to reconnect with her daughter and falls for the best friend (Tyriq Withers) of her late boyfriend, who died in a car accident that sent her to prison for vehicular manslaughter. Variety\u2019s\u00a0positive review<\/a>\u00a0called it \u00a0\u201ctastefully understated\u201d and a \u201cpleasingly restrained weeper.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/li>\n \tThe Dink (July 24 on Apple TV)<\/p>\n \t\t\t \n\t\u201cNew Girl\u201d favorite Jack Johnson leads Apple\u2019s \u201cThe Dink\u201d as washed-up former tennis prodigy Dusty Boyd, whose desperation for his father\u2019s approval gets complicated when he finds a soft spot for pickleball. Mary Steenburgen, Ed Harris, Ben Stiller, Patton Oswalt, Chloe Fineman, Chris Parnell, Aaron Chen and Andy Roddick co-star.

Stiller produced the project.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n \tNirvanna the Band the Show the Movie (July 24 on Hulu)<\/p>\n \t\t\t \n\tCanadian creators Matt Johnson and Jay McCarrol star in \u201cNirvanna the Band the Show the Movie,\u201d a time-traveling comedy film based on their mockumentary TV series \u201cNirvanna the Band the Show,\u201d which aired for two seasons from 2017 to 2018. As in the series, the duo play musicians Matt and Jay, who, though they\u2019ve never written or recorded a song, make it their mission to play a concert at Toronto\u2019s Rivoli. The less known about the movie\u2019s twists and turns the better.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n \tDescendants: Wicked Wonderland (July 17 on Disney+)<\/p>\n \t\t\t \n\tDisney might be unveiling its live-action \u201cMoana\u201d in theaters this month, but its biggest blockbuster could end up being on streaming courtesy of \u201cDescendants: Wicked Wonderland.\u201d The uber-popular franchise is back and continues the adventures of Red (Kylie Cantrall) and Chloe (Malia Baker), who now must face off against Maddox Hatter (Leonardo Nam) after he captures the Queen of Hearts (Rita Ora).

Per\u00a0Variety<\/a>: \u201cThe documentary presents a lot of tasty clips of Jacobs through the decades, going back to his 1980s days at the Parsons School of Design, but the heart of the movie is its chronicle of the 12 weeks in which he dreamed up and put together his 2024 spring show. We\u2019re eager to behold the drama of Jacobs bringing that dream to life.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/li>\n \t72 Hours (July 24 on Netflix)<\/p>\n \t\t\t \n\tKevin Hart aims to deliver Netflix a blockbuster comedy hit this July with \u201c72 Hours,\u201d co-starring Marcello Hern\u00e1ndez, Mason Gooding, Kam Patterson, Ben Marshall, Kevin Dunn, Zach Cherry, Teyana Taylor and Andy Garcia.

From\u00a0Variety\u2019s review<\/a>: \u201cThe family chimp turns rabid, but always seems like a real animal, in Johannes Roberts\u2019 slickly executed piece of slaughterhouse schlock\u2026 \u00a0the movie is funny as only a bloody disgusting formulaic-but-halfway-clever slasher film can be. In this case, we\u2019re chortling at the sheer damage a chimpanzee that has given in to its inner beast can cause.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/li>\n \tAmores Perros (July 10 on Mubi)<\/p>\n \t\t\t \n\tBefore Alejandro Gonz\u00e1lez I\u00f1\u00e1rritu returns to the big screen this fall with the Tom Cruise-starring \u201cDigger,\u201d his miraculous 2000 directorial debut \u201cAmores Perros\u201d arrives on streaming via Mubi\u2019s 4K restoration.

Shot with Rodrigo Prieto\u2019s dynamic cinematography and Gustavo Santaolalla\u2019s iconic score,\u00a0\u2018Amores Perros\u2019\u00a0is a true masterwork \u2014 both a seminal, expressive portrait of Mexico City and a universal exploration of violence, love and loss.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/li>\n \tMirrors No. 3 (July 17 on Mubi)<\/p>\n \t\t\t \n\tGerman director Christian Petzold reunites with muse Paula Beer for a fourth time in \u201cMirrors No. 3,\u201d which centers on a piano student who is taken in by a local family after surviving a car crash and begins to uncover ghosts of the past. From\u00a0Variety\u2019s review<\/a>: \u201cA humid little psychological drama of displacement, replacement and fresh plum cake, in which balmy days mix with unhealed trauma to briefly make precarious new lives and identities possible, this 86-minute puzzle piece is distinguished by his trademark pleasures of texture and tone \u2014 and pushes his ongoing collaboration with star Beer into ever more enigmatic territory.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/li>\n \tApril (July 24 on Mubi)<\/p>\n \t\t\t \n\t\u201cA female obstetrician moonlights as an illegal abortionist with severe consequences in Georgian director Dea Kulumbegashvili\u2019s altogether extraordinary second feature,\u201d reads\u00a0Variety\u2019s review<\/a>\u00a0of \u201cApril.\u201d The movie won the special jury prize at the Venice Film Festival in 2024 but is only making its exclusive streaming premiere now on Mubi.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n \tBlue Heron (July 21 on Criterion Channel)<\/p>\n \t\t\t
