New movies and TV series to see during the week from 8 to 14 March on Netflix, Prime Video, Disney+ and Now.
The rule is clear: cops wear a uniform, superheroes a costume. It doesn’t even need to repeat it. Unless the policeman in question is John Luther, Chief Inspector of London. He is a policeman, but the wool coat, which he wears in summer and winter, is like armor: it doesn’t give him superpowers, but without it he would feel lost. It has been like this for all five seasons of the “Luther” series and it is also like this in this new case, which arrives four years after the last episode of the series: after 20 episodes spread between 2010 and 2019, it’s time for the film “Luther: Into Hell,” available on Netflix starting March 10.
If you love reality shows in which the contestants have to survive in extreme conditions, here is “Outlast – Team Game”, where 16 people find themselves immersed in the pristine Alaskan wilderness.
South Korean series have proven to have nothing to envy to American and European products. Like the dark drama “The Glory”, which returns to Netflix on March 10 with the second season. At the center, the complicated revenge of a woman.
For a couple of years the acronym “LOL” (abbreviation of the English words “laughing out loud”) has also become the title of an amusing comedy program produced by Endemol Shine Italy for Prime Video. The formula is simple: ten characters (comedians, actors and entertainers) are locked up in a room for six hours where they challenge each other by unleashing jokes, grimaces, gags, sketches, small performances. Result: “He who laughs is out”, as the subtitle says. Anyone who doesn’t laugh until the end, on the other hand, wins 100,000 euros to be donated to charity.
Do you know Bear Grylls? He is considered the king of extreme feats, ever since, with the show “Man vs. Natura”, staged his will to live adventures all over the world that challenge our ancestral fears. But often Bear is not alone: for many years now he has been involving the stars of the show in his follies about him. He also does it in the six episodes of “Bear Grylls Celebrity edition: The Challenge”, arriving on Disney+ on March 8, where he takes, among others, the actress Florence Pugh in the volcanic forests of Costa Rica, Natalie Portman in the desert of Escalante (in the US state of Utah), or Simu Liu (star of the film “Shang-Chi and the legend of the ten rings”) in the relentless cold of the Canadian Rockies. How will they fare?
Kerry Washington is a single woman (and mother) whose life is turned upside down by her father’s (Delroy Lindo) release from prison in this eight-episode comedy.
Unpublished Disney film, tells the story of Chang, a 16-year-old high school student of Asian origins with only one passion, basketball. And a dream: to be able to make a “schiacciata”.
It is 1890 when Lady Cornelia Locke, Emily Blunt, a wealthy English noblewoman, arrives in America. Her goal is to reach Wyoming to take revenge on the man she holds responsible for her son’s death. In Kansas she meets Sergeant Eli Whipp (Chaske Spencer) and convinces him to accompany her. But the man, a member of the Pawnee tribe, also has a dramatic story behind him. Don’t expect to find the “same old West”, because “The English”, a miniseries arriving on Paramount+ on March 8 with its six episodes, is a story that revisits the myth of the frontier with a modern sensibility. And with two performances that leave you speechless.
The second season of the Franco-Belgian series centered on the story of two dancers, Flora and Zoe, who revolve around the Paris Opéra arrives on Now (simultaneously with Sky). In the new episodes, the two have to start over while the company has a new leadership.
Among the literary phenomena of recent years there is Sally Rooney, a young Irish writer who with her novels (published by Einaudi) has been able to give a voice to the new generations. From a book by her, “Normal people”, an acclaimed miniseries was made in 2020, and now it’s up to another best seller, “Talk about it with friends”. The series based on the novel arrives on RaiPlay on March 10, with the original title: “Conversations with friends”. At the heart of the 12 episodes are the lives of four young people living in today’s Dublin, between love, sex, betrayals and disappointments, and a trip to Croatia that will change everything.
