What to watch on OTT this weekend (May 25-31)

The cosmos are still flowing, but the vibes? Debatable. And Just Like That... returns with more Carrie soul-searching, Miranda mayhem, and Charlotte trying to keep it all together. Carrie’s penning a romance novel (because of course she is), navigating love and heartbreak one chapter at a time. The fashion, naturally, continues to do the most—Carrie steps out in off-the-runway Simone Rocha just to mail a postcard, reminding us that practicality was never the point. Aidan’s back (again), NYC is hot and messy, and while OG Sex and the City fans might still be side-eyeing the reboot, we’re all secretly still watching—heels, drama, and all.

Now streaming on OTT, A Complete Unknown sees Timothée Chalamet swap Knicks courtside buzz for Bob Dylan’s brooding genius. Still riding high as the internet’s “white boy of the month,” Chalamet delivers a striking performance in this James Mangold biopic. With Edward Norton, Elle Fanning, and Monica Barbaro in the mix, it’s a moody, music-filled ride through Dylan’s early days—perfect for a rainy night in.

Nani returns as Arjun Sarkar, a cop with anger issues, a pill habit, and—no joke—a pet vulture. In HIT: The Third Case, the third Telugu film in HIT franchise, he’s investigating a series of gruesome murders across the country. Critics say this one’s more ‘massy’ and leans hard into blood and gore compared to the first two films in the franchise. It’s gritty, chaotic, and occasionally unhinged.

Start your engines—F1: The Academy puts the pedal to the metal with 15 fierce women burning rubber in the 2024 season. This isn’t your average pit-lane drama; it’s raw, real, and roaring with adrenaline. With Susie Wolff at the helm, the series dives into rivalries, sacrifices, and the high-stakes hustle of breaking into the boys’ club of motorsport. This docuseries is for anyone who’s tired of watching women cheer from the sidelines and ready to see them take the wheel, literally.

Another day, another cop drama. Looking for a brilliant but grumpy detective? Check. Ragtag team of misfits? Double check. Matthew Goode stars as DCI Carl Morck, who’s about as popular as a parking ticket but somehow leads Department Q—a cold case unit that’s more PR stunt than dream team. Cue the usual mix of snark, tension, and buried secrets as they dig into a missing person case that could rattle Edinburgh’s elite. If you’ve seen one cop drama… well, you know the drill.

Messy families make the best thrillers and The Better Sister delivers. Jessica Biel and Elizabeth Banks play estranged sisters, Chloe and Nicky, whose already complicated dynamic explodes after Chloe’s husband is murdered. The kicker? He was also Nicky’s ex, and the prime suspect is Nicky’s son, who was raised by Chloe. It’s complicated, messy, and exactly the kind of slow-burn drama you’ll binge in one sitting.

Bono gets up close and deeply personal in this one-man show turned immersive documentary. Stories of Surrender blends storytelling, stripped-down U2 hits, and reflections on fame, faith, and fatherhood—all straight from the Beacon Theatre stage. It’s part concert, part confession, and fully Bono. Bonus points: it’s Apple’s first feature in Immersive Video, so if you’ve got a Vision Pro, you’re basically on stage with him.

Mohanlal leads this Malayalam mystery as Shanmugham, a quiet taxi driver whose life revolves around his black Ambassador until it suddenly disappears. But it’s not just the car that goes missing. As Shanmugham’s search intensifies, so does the unease, revealing something much deeper beneath the surface. Thudarum is a brooding, emotional drama that’ll hit the spot for fans of Drishyam and anyone who loves a thriller with heart.
