Netflix
We Bury the Dead (Film, Australia/US, 2025 – out 25 June) In the new zombie film from Zak Hilditch, the US government accidentally detonates an experimental weapon off the coast of Tasmania, killing hundreds of thousands and turning many into flesh-chewing ghouls. Daisy Ridley plays Ava Newman, who travels to quarantined Tasmania to search for her missing husband. Some people recover from the outbreak; others remain monsters. This rock-solid genre piece effectively portrays emotional adaptation to catastrophe.
Office Romance (Film, US, 2026 – out 5 June) Jennifer Lopez stars as an airline CEO with a strict anti-fraternisation policy, which poses problems when she falls for a new employee (Brett Goldstein). The script is drenched in clichés, but it's algorithmically primed for Netflix's top spot.
I Will Find You (TV, US, 2026 – out 18 June) This eight-part series adapts Harlan Coben's novel, a breakneck prison break story. Sam Worthington plays David Burroughs, serving a life sentence for killing his son, but evidence suggests the child may be alive. He resolves to escape prison and pursue the truth.

Stan
Beast (Film, Australia, 2026 – out 4 June) Tyler Atkins' martial arts drama follows a former MMA fighter (Daniel MacPherson) who reluctantly takes on an old nemesis. The film is surprisingly investing, though sometimes heavy-handed.
The Killings at Parrish Station (TV, Australia, 2026 – out 24 June) Ben Jenkins' dual-timeline murder mystery alternates between 1987, when two detectives investigate the murder of four scientists, and 37 years later, when similar killings occur. The trailer pairs Australia's landscapes with cult rituals and creepy goings-on.
Honourable mentions: Final Destination (4 June), Troy (6 June), Single White Female (10 June), This is Spın̈al Tap (20 June), Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon (27 June), The Spongebob Movie: Search For SquarePants (30 June).

This is Not a Murder Mystery (TV, Belgium, 2025 – out 4 June) Set in an English estate in 1936, key characters are surrealist artists like Dalí, Ernst, Man Ray, Legge and Miller. Murders inspired by surrealist artworks occur. It's a cosy crime with artistic Easter eggs and sumptuous 1930s décor.

ABC iView
Ground Up (TV, Australia, 2026 – out 7 June) This satirical comedy stars Sam Pang as an AFL administrator tasked with establishing a new Tasmanian team and stadium. Expect bureaucracy gone mad: long conversations, too many meetings, red tape.

HBO Max
Life, Larry, and the Pursuit of Unhappiness (TV, US, 2026 – out 27 June) Larry David's new comedy series, produced by Barack and Michelle Obama, features sketches inspired by major American history moments, filtered through David's trademark awkwardness. The cast includes Curb veterans.
Mad Men seasons 1-7 (TV, US, 2007–2015 – out now) Matthew Weiner's influential series set in 1960s advertising is a feast of mid-century cool, with Jon Hamm as Don Draper. It's acclaimed for its writing, performances and portrayal of a changing America.

Amazon Prime Video
Over Your Dead Body (Film, US, 2026 – out 10 June) An embittered couple (Samara Weaving and Jason Segel) head to a remote cabin, each planning to murder the other, but encounter three violent criminals hiding in the attic. It's a chaotic, violent thriller like a video game staged by Hitchcock.

Binge
Tip Toe (TV, UK, 2026 – out 2 June) Russell T Davies' new series set around Manchester's Canal Street focuses on neighbours Clive (David Morrissey) and Leo (Alan Cumming), exploring how online culture exacerbates ignorance and intolerance. The first episode is gripping and unsettling.
Wicked: For Good (Film, US, 2025 – out 25 June) The second chapter follows Elphaba in exile, branded a public menace. Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande reprise their roles. It plays in grand Hollywood mode but lacks the first film's spark and feels bloated.
Honourable mentions: Ray (1 June), The Plague (23 June), Wicked Dear England (28 June), Mr X (30 June).
Disney+
The X-Files: I Want to Believe – Director's Cut (Film, US, 2026 – out 11 June) Mulder and Scully investigate a missing FBI agent and a psychic priest. The original film was softened by the studio; this director's cut restores grislier elements, bringing Carter's horror vision to life.

Apple TV
