Some incredible new shows and movies available to watch at home this month!

Summer has officially arrived! We can soon expect days consisting of either: (A) the typical Irish summer having us completely rained out, or (B) it becoming surprisingly too hot and we need to sit in to escape the heat.

Whatever the weather, the folks at NOW have us covered.

They’ve given us a sneak peak of what to expect in June, so all of the below (and more besides!) will be available to stream with your NOW Cinema Membership and your NOW Entertainment Membership throughout the month.

Starting with…

The Matrix Resurrections

Stream from Friday, 3 June.

The much-anticipated legacy sequel sees Keanu Reeves and Carrie-Anne Moss return to their iconic roles… kind of! If you haven’t seen it yet, then we don’t want to give too much away, but let us just say that this is a very forward-thinking sequel, which appropriately brings The Matrix into the world of modern blockbusters.

Westworld S4

Stream weekly from Monday, 27 June.

The continued evolution of sentient life on Earth crashes forward, with the amassing rebellious robots still planning to overtake their human rulers. Rumour has it that a brand new theme park will be revealed, modelled after the American Mafia in the 1930s.

The Midwich Cuckoos

Stream every episode from Thursday, 2 June.

Keeley Hawes (The Bodyguard, Line of Duty) headlines this modern retelling of a classic horror story, in which all of the women in a small town collapse unconscious on the same day, and many of them wake up mysteriously pregnant.

Last Night In Soho

Stream from Friday, 17 June.

Edgar Wright (Hot Fuzz, Shaun of the Dead) directs his first full-on horror movie, with a young fashion student (Thomasin McKenzie) finding her new apartment is haunted by a previous tenant (Anya Taylor-Joy), and the two somehow begin to develop a mysterious connection.

We Own This City

Stream every episode from Tuesday, 7 June.

The brand new crime thriller series from the creator of The Wire, this new miniseries details the true story behind the meteoric rise and very dangerous, corruption-fuelled fall of the Baltimore Police Department’s Gun Trace Task Force.

All of these movies and shows – and plenty more besides! – will be available to stream with your NOW Cinema Membership and your NOW Entertainment Membership.
