⚡ Headliners of the Month

👾 Stranger Things 5 (Volume 1) — November 26

“Friends don’t lie.” — Eleven

The battle for Hawkins reaches its final chapter. Set in the fall of 1987, Stranger Things 5 begins with the town under military quarantine as Vecna vanishes into the unknown. Eleven (Millie Bobby Brown) is back in hiding, and the countdown to the final confrontation begins.

This time, every shadow hides a threat, and every friend is a weapon. The entire gang — Mike, Will, Lucas, Max, Dustin, and Eleven — must stand together one last time. The Rifts are open, and so is the path to heartbreak.

The first volume drops November 26 at 5 p.m. PT — and it’s already being called “the most emotional season yet.”

🧬 Frankenstein — Directed by Guillermo del Toro

The master of gothic imagination, Guillermo del Toro, reanimates Mary Shelley’s timeless classic. Oscar Isaac stars as the ambitious scientist obsessed with playing God, while Jacob Elordi portrays his tragic creation — part monster, part mirror.

Expect del Toro’s signature blend of melancholy and horror, stitched together with Oscar-worthy performances. This one’s a creature feature for the soul.

🧠 The Beast in Me — Claire Danes & Matthew Rhys

Two powerhouse actors, one haunting mystery. Claire Danes plays a grieving writer, Matthew Rhys a secretive real-estate mogul. When tragedy and suspicion intertwine, their lives unravel in unexpected, psychological ways.

Think Gone Girl meets The Undoing, wrapped in Netflix’s sleek drama signature.

🎤 ONE SHOT with Ed Sheeran — November 21

“One singer. One city. One shot.”

Ed Sheeran takes over the streets of New York in this real-time music experience — a live concert-documentary hybrid capturing every heartbeat, every chord, and every crowd reaction. It’s not just a show; it’s a living rhythm of the city.
