Beast Games Season 2 (Prime Video | January 7, 2026)

After shattering records with its debut, Beast Games returns bigger, louder, and more ambitious. Created by Jimmy “MrBeast” Donaldson, Season 2 raises the stakes by pitting 100 of the world’s strongest competitors against 100 of the smartest minds, all battling for a staggering $5 million grand prize. The new season expands the scale with larger challenges, strategic twists, and a special crossover episode with Survivor host Jeff Probst. Launching with three episodes and rolling out weekly, Beast Games Season 2 cements itself as Prime Video’s ultimate event reality series.

Final Destination Bloodlines (Prime Video | January 2026)

The Final Destination franchise finds fresh life with Bloodlines, a reimagining that blends classic supernatural horror with a darker, more emotional edge. The film follows Stefani Reyes as she uncovers a deadly family connection to a decades-old disaster—and learns that Death never forgets unfinished business. After becoming the highest-grossing and best-reviewed entry in the series, Final Destination Bloodlines arrives on Prime Video as a must-watch for horror fans craving inventive kills and relentless tension.

Follow My Voice (Prime Video | January 2, 2026)

Follow My Voice is a tender, emotionally grounded teen drama that explores loneliness, connection, and the power of human voice. After being confined at home for weeks following a health crisis, Klara becomes deeply attached to a late-night radio show—and to its mysterious host, Kang. Based on the popular Wattpad novel, the film leans into vulnerability and quiet romance, offering a heartfelt story about stepping back into the world after isolation.

The Naked Gun (Prime Video | January 2026)

The iconic slapstick franchise makes its return with The Naked Gun, delivering fast-paced comedy, absurd sight gags, and unapologetic parody. Reviving the spirit of the original films while updating the humor for a new generation, the movie leans into chaos, physical comedy, and rapid-fire jokes. It’s a lightweight, nostalgia-fueled pick that balances action and comedy for an easy, crowd-pleasing watch.

Spring Fever (Prime Video | January 5, 2026)

Spring Fever delivers a gentle yet emotionally rich Korean romance set against the calm rhythms of a small village. The series pairs Yoon Bom, a reserved high school teacher with a guarded heart, and Sun Jae-gyu, a man whose fiery personality disrupts her carefully controlled world. Warm, character-driven, and quietly hopeful, Spring Fever leans into healing, second chances, and the unexpected ways love can thaw even the coldest hearts.

The Night Manager Season 2 (Prime Video | January 11, 2026)

After years away, The Night Manager returns with Jonathan Pine drawn back into the dangerous world he thought he’d escaped. Tom Hiddleston reprises his role as Pine faces a new international threat tied to a powerful Colombian businessman, pushing him once again into moral gray zones and violent confrontations. Season 2 expands the scope of the story while preserving the sleek tension and prestige espionage storytelling that made the original a standout.

The Hillside Strangler (Prime Video | January 18, 2026)

This chilling four-part series revisits one of Los Angeles’ darkest chapters through the eyes of the detective who led the hunt. The Hillside Strangler offers a firsthand account of the case that terrorized the city in the late 1970s, blending archival footage with personal testimony. Measured and unsettling, the series focuses on investigation and impact rather than sensationalism, making it essential viewing for true-crime audiences.

Judy Justice (Prime Video | January 19, 2026)

Judge Judy Sheindlin returns with her signature blend of sharp wit, practical wisdom, and zero tolerance for nonsense. Judy Justice continues to turn everyday disputes into compelling courtroom television, driven by Sheindlin’s unmatched authority and personality. Fast-paced and endlessly watchable, the series remains a reliable favorite for viewers who enjoy real-world drama with decisive outcomes.

Steal (Prime Video | January 21, 2026)

Steal injects urgency and tension into the workplace thriller genre as a routine day spirals into chaos. When armed criminals storm a pension-fund company, Zara and her colleague Luke are forced into an impossible situation involving billions of pounds and unanswered motives. Anchored by Sophie Turner, the film builds suspense through claustrophobic settings and escalating moral stakes.

The Wrecking Crew (Prime Video | January 28, 2026)

Action meets comedy in The Wrecking Crew, which pairs Jason Momoa and Dave Bautista as estranged half-brothers drawn back together by a mysterious death. What begins as a reluctant reunion quickly unravels into a conspiracy filled with betrayals, bruises, and sharp banter. With its blend of muscle, humor, and family drama, the film is designed as a crowd-pleasing finale to Prime Video’s January slate.
