Just a few weeks after Kathryn Bigelow\u2019s apocalyptic political thriller was in cinemas, the feel-bad film arrives on the small screen. Its ensemble cast includes Idris Elba, Rebecca Ferguson, Jared Harris and Greta Lee and it follows Elba\u2019s US president and his officials as they scramble to react to a nuclear missile of \u201cindeterminate origin\u201d heading for Chicago with 19 minutes to impact. The film builds tension cleverly, as viewers see this terrifying countdown three times from three different perspectives. Read our full review here<\/a>. <\/p>\n
Lauren Lyle stars as Mia, a troubled Scottish doctor who travels across the world to New Zealand to attend her estranged sister\u2019s wedding, only to find that her sister is dead. Thrown into a small community where everyone is interconnected, Mia must fight grief and loss while attempting to work out what happened to her sister. Set against the moody backdrop of the beautiful New Zealand countryside, this is a new take on noir that will draw you into a tantalising mystery. <\/p>\n
If you\u2019re looking for an engaging and entertaining drama which treads a fine line between gothic and melodramatic, this latest show from Harlen Coben may be just the weekend binge you seek. Starring Bill Nighy as Dr Jonathan Lazarus, an eminent psychiatrist who is found dead by suicide, and Sam Claflin as his son, Joel, who believes there is more to his father\u2019s demise, this horror unfolds with all the twists, turns and elaborate plot devices needed to provide a classic Coben rollercoaster ride.<\/p>\n
A rabbi and an agnostic sex podcaster walk into a bar. No, not the start of a bad joke, but the premise of a great comedy which returns this week with Adam Brody and Kristen Bell\u2019s electric chemistry at the forefront. If you missed the first season of this quirky rom-com, catch up first before you find out what happens when their relationship moves to the next level, and their lives intersect even further. <\/p>\n![\"Leonard](\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/\/fc35ba48-30b4-45a6-92cf-bb2a2df14bef.jpg\")

A gentle and heart-warming comedy based on the Irish writer R\u00f3n\u00e1n Hession\u2019s book of the same name, this unassuming show has one glitzy element you may not be expecting: it\u2019s narrated by Julia Roberts. Yes, that Julia Roberts. It\u2019s a quiet study of two lives, concentrating not on the flashy things and disasters that most shows address, but the nuanced and uncelebrated moments that make us human. It\u2019s a world you\u2019ll want to discover. Read our full review here.<\/a><\/p>\n
