It's been quite the summer of unexpected hit series on Netflix. The mystery thriller series Untamed was originally intended to be a limited series, but due to its overwhelming viewership numbers, the streamer already ordered a second season. Hot on its trails, The Hunting Wives has become the next binge-watch sensation on the streaming service that's leaving us wanting more.
Based on the book of the same name by May Cobb and starring fan-favorites Brittany Snow and Malin Akerman among many other familiar faces, The Hunting Wives was originally intended to air on Starz. However, Netflix swooped in to save the series and become its streaming home for one year in the United States. After its premiere on July 21, the series became an overnight success.
For the first time, The Hunting Wives became the No. 1 show on the Netflix top 10 most popular shows ranking in the United States as of July 30, overtaking Untamed.

Updated: Some Netflix U.S. subscribers have been taken aback by the raunch quotient in the new culture-war soapy thriller series The Hunting Wives, which features a lot more nudity and sex than the average Netflix drama, even more than the streamer’s steamy Regency romance Bridgerton.
That is because most viewers don’t know the series’ unusual history — up until a month and a half ago, the Lionsgate Television-produced The Hunting Wives, starring Malin Åkerman and Brittany Snow, was a completed Starz drama. Starz, known for pushing the boundaries with racy content — as exemplified by its tagline, “We’re All Adults Here” — was reportedly not high on The Hunting Wives, and its split from Lionsgate allowed it to find a new home.
Another former Starz series that features frequent sex scenes, Hightown, which ran on the then-Lionsgate-owned network for three seasons, also recently launched on Netflix in the U.

The first 22 minutes of the Stephen King adaptation “The Long Walk” debuted at San Diego Comic-Con on Friday, following the debut of the new red-band trailer and a panel featuring the cast, including Mark Hamill, David Jonsson (“Alien: Romulus”), Tut Nyuot and Garrett Wareing (“Manifest”).
The film is adapted from King’s 1979 novel (first written when he was 19!), set in an authoritarian America in which 50 young adult men join a televised contest to walk continuously at a pace of at least three miles per hour — or they’ll be killed. Hamill plays a man only known as the Major, the military commander who oversees the Walk and gives the walkers their literal marching orders. In the panel, Hamill said that when director Francis Lawrence approached him about playing the part, it immediately evoked his teenage years in Japan, where he went to school next to a U.S. military base.

Both in movies and on television, stories set in airplanes — or that are tied to events in an airplane — tend to be thrilling and spark viewers' curiosity. The last hit show that featured an airborne plot was Manifest, a 2018 thriller and mystery series that saw a group of passengers simply disappear mid-flight and land five and a half years later as if no time had passed. In light of its possibility, Peacock quickly added to its catalog a show with a similar potential that was almost equally popular. Now that it's premiered on Netflix, the Canadian series Departure is once again seeing a rise in its popularity.
Depending on how you look at it, Departure can even be considered a sort of "sister" series to Manifest. The story centers around the Tsif (Transport Safety and Investigations Bureau), an entity that investigates and tries to understand the cause of major airline disasters.

HBO Max broke up with Love Life in 2022, but the Anna Kendrick-led series is getting another shot this summer. Netflix announced plans to pick up the romantic comedy anthology and start streaming in August.
Love Life didn't exactly take the streaming world by storm during its two seasons on HBO Max. However, critics and fans alike appreciated the charm brought by season 1 led Anna Kendrick and season 2 star William Jackson Harper. A supporting cast that included Zoë Chao, Jessica Williams, and Punkie Johnson pushed Love Life to a 95% rating on Rotten Tomatoes for the final season.
However, HBO canceled the series in December 2022. The streamer took things a step further and completely removed Love Life from the service. Reports at the time indicated financial reasons motivated the decision, as the romcom joined a list of several other projects dropped from HBO Max.
It became nearly impossible to stream the 20 episodes beyond paying for video-on-demand.

“Jurassic World Rebirth” marks the next chapter in the “Jurassic” franchise and as such, it brings a lot of new faces with it.
Taking place years after the events of “Jurassic World Dominion,” the Gareth Edwards film takes a new group of people to an island near the equator, where dinosaurs roam freely and travel is expressly prohibited. There, they intend to collect samples from various species to help advance medical research.
Now obviously, this is a “Jurassic World” movie, so things go off the rails pretty quick. But here’s who you need to know.

It didn't take too long for Universal Pictures to decide it was time to bring dinosaurs back to the big screen once again. Just three years after "Jurassic World Dominion," which was set up as something of a conclusion for the series, another new movie is headed to theaters this week in the form of "Jurassic World Rebirth." Directed by Gareth Edwards, it's being billed as a new beginning for the long-running franchise. But is it going to be a one-off? Or is this movie setting up more to come?
Admittedly, credits scenes haven't been a big thing in the "Jurassic" movies over the years, though 2018's "Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom" did have a post-credits scene that helped tease what we would see in "Dominion." So, does "Rebirth" have any such scenes that audiences need to be aware of? Do fans need to stay during the credits for this one?...

Shortly after Netflix announced the exciting Ransom Canyon season 2 renewal news, Once Upon a Time and Manifest star Josh Dallas threw his cowboy hat in the ring to appear in the new season. If you're wondering how this even came about or, more importantly, why it needs to happen, allow me to explain. As per usual, it's all connected.
Netflix's modern Western romantic drama series Ransom Canyon features a sprawling, multi-generational ensemble cast led by Josh Duhamel and Minka Kelly. While centering on the ranching and romantic lives of many adult characters, the series also devotes a significant amount of time to teenage characters in the titular Texas town.
One of those teen characters is the charming and endearing Lucas Russell, played by Garrett Wareing, who Manifest fans know best as Tj. Wareing has by far been among the best breakout talents on Ransom Canyon and plays one of the show's best characters.

Jeremiah Fraites, co-founder and songwriter of the Grammy-nominated alternative folk band The Lumineers, has composed the score for The Long Walk, Variety has learned.
Based on Stephen King‘ 1979 novel of the same name, The Long Walk is directed by Francis Lawrence and written by Jt Mollner (Strange Darling).
“Francis [Lawrence] and I had a really great initial phone call that helped inform what instrumentation we thought would work,” commented Fraites. “Strings and piano felt right in servicing the expected horror you’d find in Stephen King canon. The real challenge for me was going to be writing music that would properly represent the deep relationships these boys were forming while on this brutal walk.”
“We met years ago when the band the Lumineers did a song for the [The Hunger Games] Catching Fire soundtrack — Jeremiah and I had remained friends after that, and stayed in contact,” added Lawrence. “He’d send me vinyl versions...

Whenever people wake up naked and covered in tattoos on New York's Times Square, it's usually because they were out on the town the night before and had too much fun. Every once in a while, though, it might be the result of their memories being erased due to them having a mysterious and dangerous past. "Blindspot" protagonist Jane Doe can relate to the latter predicament, and her adventures are captivating Netflix viewers -- five years after they came to end on NBC.
"Blindspot" premiered back in 2015 and lasted for five seasons, earning some positive reviews but not much momentum in regard to consistent fanfare. Season 1 averaged 11 million viewers, but the audience tuned out in droves as the series progressed. However, it seems that the Martin Gero-created actioner might be more popular than ever in 2025, as data obtained by FlixPatrol reveals that it's riding high in Netflix's top 10.

After Robert Jordan passed away in 2007, the task of completing The Wheel of Time novels went to writer Brandon Sanderson, who rose to prominence thanks to his Mistborn collection of books. Now, following the cancellation of the live-action series on Prime Video after its "best season," the fantasy author is speaking out to give his thoughts on the matter.
Sanderson picked up The Wheel of Time novels from Jordan after his death, completing the final three books in the epic saga, with the last one, A Memory of Light, published in 2013. Despite his connection to the story, Sanderson says he "wasn't really involved" in the Prime Video series, and that his name was used "for legitimacy." In a video posted to his YouTube channel, a fan asked in the comments if he had anything to say about The Wheel of Time being canceled, and the author responded:
"I wasn't really involved.

Amazon canceled The Wheel of Time, its epic fantasy TV series based on the books by Robert Jordan, a couple of weeks ago, about a month after airing the season 3 finale. It was rotten timing, since the show got cut off in the middle of the story after airing what was easily its best season so far.
There have been a lot of reactions since then; some cast wistfully said goodbye while others seemed (playfully) angry. The show's passionate fans immediately got to work trying to save the show, circulating a petition and buying billboards in the hopes that Amazon would reverse its decision or another network or streaming service would continue the show. Showrunner Rafe Judkins has admitted that the odds of the show coming back from this are long, but he's not completely out of hope.

It’s been less than a month since word first broke that Amazon had decided to cancel its beloved fantasy series The Wheel of Time after three seasons, but the fans have quickly picked up their swords to fight to save the show.
Fans have been doing everything in their power to try to save the series, launching an active fan campaign in support of the show. Over 130,000 fans have signed a petition fighting to get the show renewed for season 4, and over $22,000 has been raised to help with the campaign efforts, with the goal being to use the funds to amplify the campaign. This has included the purchase of billboards in support of the Save Wheel of Time campaign, the first of these billboards debuting in Times Square on June 6.
It goes without saying that fans aren’t giving up on the show and it seems neither neither is its showrunner.

Prime Video seemed to be completely invested in bringing several big fantasy franchises to life when they commissioned both The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power and The Wheel of Time. It therefore came as a huge shock when The Wheel of Time was not renewed for a fourth season, and it seems like the thousands of fans hoping the series will be picked up by another streamer may have to prepare themselves for the worst, according to a new report.
Based on the novels by Robert Jordan, The Wheel of Time debuted on Prime Video in 2021 to reasonable enough reviews, but it seems that over the course of its three seasons it did not do enough for Prime Video to want to continue pumping money into what is a costly project. This was the exact reason Prime Video gave for the cancellation, saying it was a “strictly monetary” decision.

One of the most popular science fiction shows on Netflix, a show which seemingly ended back in 2023, is apparently “not dead yet,” according to its creator. The streamer has become infamous for quickly and unceremoniously dropping the cancellation axe on TV shows before they get a chance to really find an audience. However, alongside this, the platform has also saved shows from other networks. And such was the case with the hit supernatural drama, Manifest.
Created by Jeff Rake and debuting its first season back in 2018, Manifest features a large ensemble cast that includes Melissa Roxburgh, Josh Dallas, Athena Karkanis, J. R. Ramirez, Luna Blaise, Jack Messina, Parveen Kaur, Matt Long, and Holly Taylor, among others, and details the mystery behind Flight 828, which suddenly disappeared...before reappearing just as suddenly five years later.

Well, consider our curiosity piqued and our hopes all the way up! All it takes is one little social media post from Manifest creator Jeff Rake, which only consists of three words, for fans to have renewed faith that either season 5, a continuation movie, or some sort of spinoff could be in the works. Rake shared his message one year after the show's official Death Date, making it even more loaded.
On June 2, Rake took to social media and said: "Not dead yet." He included an emoji wearing sunglasses and the Manifest hashtag. Clearly, he's up to something, but we just don't know what he's up to yet. Ever since Manifest completed its run with the second half of its fourth and final season on June 2, 2023, Rake has been teasing a continuation.
The series finale was quite the jaw-dropping game-changer, as the Flight 828 passengers returned back to the day their flight took off.

Hollywood has seen plenty of child stars come and go, their talents spent on any number of teen sitcoms and romantic comedies before life -- and in many cases tragedy -- pulled them in a different direction. But few if any were as remarkable in their genuine comedic talent as Amanda Bynes, the former Nickelodeon star who disappeared from Hollywood just as she was crossing into a career as a mainstream film actor.
Bynes cut her teeth as a stand-up comic at a very young age before joining the Nick family, frequently working with Dan Schneider, the infamous writer, creator, and mega-producer responsible for a massive portion of the network's success -- he's also the subject of all of Nickelodeon's most harrowing allegations of misconduct and abuse. After working on several projects with Schneider, Bynes appeared in a few movies outside his direct sphere of influence before taking a step back from the entertainment industry.

Updated, May 20: Another trailer has arrived for Universal’s Jurassic World: Rebirth.
Jonathan Bailey’s Henry Loomis and Scarlett Johansson’s Zora Bennett can be seen up close with gigantic dinosaurs on land, in the sea and in the air. Their search for a live-saving medicine for humans requires DNA samples from three of those creatures, leading them to extract a sample from a pterodactyl egg in a cave, but not before the mother dinosaur returns to the nest to see what they are doing.
Mahershala Ali will also star as Duncan Kincaid, and he has a flare face off with a tyrannosaurus rex.
