By Kevin Slane
With the 2024 Oscars officially in the rearview mirror and audiences no longer scrambling to watch all of the Oscar-nominated movies, streaming companies like Netflix, Hulu, and Prime Video are re-focusing their promotional efforts on the biggest and best of their new spring TV shows.
Netflix, which premiered its highly anticipated “3 Body Problem” series last month, is back with “Ripley,” a black-and-white adaptation of the Patricia Highsmith’s novel “The Talented Mr. Ripley” with Andrew Scott (“Fleabag”) playing Matt Damon’s role from the 1999 film adaptation.
Prime Video, meanwhile, is trying to capture the magic of “The Last Of Us” with its own video game adaptation starring Ella Purnell (“Maleficent”)
and Walton Goggins (“Justified”). “Fallout,” based on the popular dystopian game series, shows how humans would scrap to survive hundreds of years after nuclear annihilation.
Hulu is banking on the star power of Lily Gladstone (“Killers of the Flower Moon”) and Riley Keough (“Daisy Jones & The Six”) in “Under the Bridge,” in which a writer (Keough) and cop (Gladstone) work together to solve the case of a missing teenager.
Below you’ll find a full list of what’s new in April on eight of the most popular streaming services in America: Netflix, Max (formerly HBO Max), Hulu, Disney+, Prime Video, Apple TV+, Peacock, and Paramount+.
Here are all the new movies, TV shows, and specials streaming in April 2024.
