Top picks for the month
Django (Series) - Release Date: August 9
A reimagining of the classic 1966 Western by Sergio Corbucci, Django is helmed by Francesca Comencini, the acclaimed director of Italian crime drama Gomorrah. This isn't your typical spaghetti western — it's got a fresh, modern twist that dives deep into psychological and even feminist themes. In it, fearless gunslinger Django roams the Wild West, desperately searching for his daughter who he believes miraculously escaped the slaughter of their family. The stakes are high, the drama intense, and the characters richly developed.
Anne Boleyn (Series) - Release Date: August 16
This three-part miniseries delves into the harrowing final months of Anne Boleyn's life, capturing her relentless struggle against Tudor England's patriarchal society. It poignantly portrays her desperate desire to secure a future for her daughter, Elizabeth, despite the brutal consequences of failing to provide King Henry VIII with a male heir. Jodie Turner-Smith's portrayal of Anne brings an almost tangible presence to the tragic figure, making her struggles and resilience feel incredibly real. This portrayal brings a new depth and intensity to historical events, making Anne Boleyn a compelling watch for anyone fascinated by British history.
Joy Ride (Film) - Release Date: August 30
A hilarious and unapologetically explicit story of identity and self-discovery, Joy Ride stars Ashley Park as Audrey, whose business trip to Asia veers off course, prompting her to seek help from her friends. What ensues is a no-holds-barred adventure filled with bonding, wild debauchery, and gross-out gags, all while uncovering the universal truths of friendship, belonging, and self-love. The story blends raunchy humor with heartfelt moments, making it a must-watch for fans of edgy comedy.
