Industry, BBC
Industry is heading into its fourth season. With Pierpoint still reeling from past power shifts, the new episodes find old loyalties tested and new alliances forged – often at a steep personal cost. Yasmin is navigating life, love and status alongside tech founder Sir Henry Muck, while Harper finds herself pulled into the orbit of the enigmatic and formidable Whitney Halberstram. As both women chase influence in an environment that rewards ambition and punishes vulnerability, their already fractured friendship begins to buckle under the pressure of money, power and the relentless need to win. Myha’la and Marisa Abela return at the centre of the drama, joined once again by Kit Harington, Ken Leung and Sagar Radia. The cast is bolstered by a slate of buzzy new additions including Kiernan Shipka, Charlie Heaton, Toheeb Jimoh and Max Minghella.

Tell Me Lies, Disney+
Tell Me Lies returns for a third season, picking up with Lucy Albright (Grace Van Patten) and her spectacularly toxic on-off relationship with Stephen DeMarco (Jackson White), the older college boyfriend she really should have left in the past. This time, they’re trying again – armed with good intentions and absolutely no evidence it will end well. Glossy, messy and compulsively watchable, it’s proof that some red flags are impossible to ignore.

Hijack, Apple TV
Lightning has officially struck twice for Sam Nelson. After the success of its first outing, Hijack returns with Idris Elba as the corporate (and still deeply unlucky) negotiator once again caught in the wrong place at the wrong time. This season swaps planes for Berlin’s subway system, where a routine journey spirals into another high-stakes crisis. Expect tight pacing, sharp twists and a growing sense that absolutely no one can be trusted.

Pole To Pole With Will Smith, Disney+
In search of perspective – and some extreme scenery – Will Smith takes on the world. This seven-part travel series sees him hopping across every continent, chasing life lessons at the planet’s most remote edges. In practice, that means epic landscapes, adrenaline-fuelled stunts and the occasional brush with something that can definitely kill you (giant anacondas included).

Agatha Christie’s Seven Dials, Netflix
Seven Dials is a punchy new three-part adaptation of The Seven Dials Mystery, written by Chris Chibnall (Broadchurch), which delivers classic country-house drama sharpened for modern bingeing. Set in England in 1925, it naturally has all the ingredients of a vintage whodunnit: a glittering weekend party, a practical joke gone disastrously wrong and a body that shouldn’t be there. At the centre of the chaos is Lady Eileen “Bundle” Brent, played with sparkle by BAFTA Rising Star Mia McKenna-Bruce (How to Have Sex), an amateur sleuth with a knack for asking exactly the wrong questions at exactly the right time. She is joined by Helena Bonham Carter (The Crown) as the gloriously formidable Lady Caterham, Martin Freeman (Sherlock) as the inscrutable Battle, alongside Corey Mylchreest (Queen Charlotte), Ed Bluemel (Sex Education) and Nabhaan Rizwan (KAOS).

28 Years Later: The Bone Temple, cinemas nationwide
After a long wait between 28 Days Later and 28 Weeks Later, the continuation of the franchise is suddenly coming thick and fast. Directed by Nia DaCosta (Candyman, The Marvels), The Bone Temple expands the brutal world created by Danny Boyle and Alex Garland – but pointedly turns it on its head. Ralph Fiennes (The Grand Budapest Hotel, Harry Potter) stars as Dr. Kelson, whose shocking new relationship could change the fate of what’s left of civilisation, while Alfie Williams’ (His Dark Materials) Spike becomes trapped in a living nightmare after crossing paths with the terrifying Jimmy Crystal, played by Jack O’Connell (Skins, Unbroken). In this chilling new chapter, the infected are no longer the greatest threat – instead, it’s the inhumanity of the survivors that proves most disturbing.

Rental Family, cinemas nationwide
Set against the neon-lit backdrop of modern Tokyo, Rental Family is a quietly affecting drama about loneliness, identity and chosen connection. Comeback king Brendan Fraser (The Whale, The Mummy) stars as a washed-up American actor who stumbles upon an unexpected lifeline: a job at a Japanese “rental family” agency, where he’s paid to play husbands, fathers and long-lost relatives for strangers in need. What begins as performance slowly turns personal, as real emotions seep into his carefully scripted roles. As the boundaries between acting and authenticity blur, Fraser’s character is forced to confront the ethical grey areas of his work – and, in the process, discovers a renewed sense of purpose, belonging and the understated beauty of human connection.

A Knight Of The Seven Kingdoms, HBO
The Game of Thrones universe expands once again – but this time, on a smaller, more human scale. A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms travels back nearly a century before Thrones, to a Westeros still ruled by the Targaryens. The story follows hedge knight Ser Duncan the Tall – Dunk – played by Peter Claffey (Bad Sisters, Wreck) and his sharp-witted young squire Egg, portrayed by Dexter Sol Ansell (The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes). Adapted from George R.R. Martin’s much-loved Dunk & Egg novellas, the series opens at the Ashford Meadow tournament, where jousts, rivalries and political undercurrents simmer beneath the surface. More intimate than its dragon-heavy predecessors but no less rich in intrigue, this is a grounded, character-driven take on Westeros – and with a second season already confirmed, it’s just getting started.
