Crime 101

YouTube video

Release Date: 1st April 2026 (Wednesday)

Set against the sun-bleached grit of Los Angeles, “Crime 101” weaves the tale of an elusive jewel thief (Chris Hemsworth) whose string of heists along the 101 freeway has mystified police. When he eyes the score of a lifetime, his path crosses that of a disillusioned insurance broker (Halle Berry) who is facing her own crossroads. Convinced he has found a pattern, a relentless detective (Mark Ruffalo) is closing in, raising the stakes even higher. As the heist approaches, the line between hunter and hunted begins to blur, and all three are faced with life-defining choices–and the realisation that there can be no turning back. Adapted from Don Winslow’s acclaimed novella of the same name, the film is written and directed by Bart Layton (American Animals, The Imposter). Barry Keoghan, Monica Barbaro, Corey Hawkins, Jennifer Jason Leigh, and Nick Nolte round out the cast.

Nippon Sangoku: The Three Nations of the Crimson Sun

“Nippon Sangoku: The Three Nations of the Crimson Sun” depicts the near future of Japan, where revolution arose from nuclear war, natural disasters, and corrupt governance, where civilisation has collapsed.

But when Butcher reappears, ready and willing to use a virus that will wipe all Supes off the map, he sets in motion a chain of events that will forever change the world and everyone in it.

NBA SoFi Play-In Tournament & Playoffs

SOURCE: PRIME VIDEO

Release Date: 15th April 2026 (Wednesday) onwards

Jerry West: The Logo

SOURCE: PRIME VIDEO

Release Date: 16th April 2026 (Thursday)

“Jerry West: The Logo” examines the price of greatness and the man who paid it, as the notoriously private and enigmatic West opens up with rare candor about his private struggles with depression, the marriage that crumbled under the weight of his obsession, his complicated relationship with fatherhood, and the persistent feeling of being an outsider even as he achieved what others only dream of.

Through dozens of never-before-told stories shared by friends, family members, teammates, and colleagues—including insights from Michael Jordan, Magic Johnson, Shaquille O’Neal, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Steph Curry, Kevin Durant, commissioner Adam Silver, and West’s own children—Jerry West: The Logo paints a complex portrait of a man driven by perfectionism.

In capturing what would become West’s final interviews, Jerry West: The Logo becomes both eulogy and reckoning—a tender, unflinching examination of what we sacrifice in pursuit of greatness and whether, in the end, it’s worth the cost. Directed by acclaimed filmmaker Kenya Barris in his documentary debut, this film captures West in his most vulnerable and reflective moments, offering audiences a side of the legend they’ve never seen—the man behind the logo, wrestling with his demons, his legacy, and the question of what it all meant.

Absolute Value of Romance

SOURCE: PRIME VIDEO

Release Date: 17th April 2026 (Friday)

A fresh and witty romance set in a high school, “Absolute Value of Romance” follows Yeo Eui-ju, a quiet student with a double life. By day, she’s an unassuming high schooler; by night, she secretly writes web novels and dreams of literary fame. But success feels far away — until inspiration strikes in the forms of four irresistibly charming new teachers, whose arrival sends both her school and her stories into overdrive. “Absolute Value of Romance” is a youthful coming-of-age drama packed with clumsy teenage moments, bittersweet laughter, and a whole lot of heart.

Kevin

YouTube video

Release Date: 20th April 2026 (Monday)

Loosely inspired by a real-life break-up and the cat who was caught in the middle, “KEVIN” is a hilarious and heart-warming story about finding where you belong in the world. After the unexpected break-up of his human “owners,” Kevin moves into a local pet rescue in Astoria, Queens, where a chaotic band of misfit animals will help him to figure out what he really wants out of life.

Cangaço Novo (New Bandits) Season 2

SOURCE: PRIME VIDEO

Release Date: 24th April 2026 (Friday)

In the second season of “Cangaço Novo”, siblings Ubaldo, DIlvânia, and Dinorah face even more dangerous challenges in their war against the Maleiros. Ernesto’s brutal death drives Ubaldo into a relentless quest for justice, pushing him to increasingly question his criminal life while trying to balance his leadership role with mounting internal crises.

Dinorah, now stronger and more determined, proves ruthless as the gang’s new leader—but her hot temper threatens to derail everything, especially with new figures arriving from the Southeast. Meanwhile, Dilvânia, more spiritually attuned than ever, grapples with crises of faith and visions that become crucial to the community’s survival. Leinneane, on the other hand, finds herself in a moral dilemma, torn between loyalty to her husband, who is running for mayor, and her belief in the Vaqueiros’ cause. Her entanglement with Ubaldo further complicates matters, fueling intrigue and betrayal that could destroy everyone’s fate.
