In classic movie-release terms, September is when awards season starts in earnest, and so it is in the streaming era. With summer fading into the rearview, streaming platforms are bringing out the big guns. That includes another Nicole Kidman-led murder mystery, an action-comedy reuniting George Clooney and Brad Pitt, and Colin Ferrell ‘glamming down’ to the most extreme degree as waddling Batman nemesis the Penguin. Meanwhile, new TV seasons are premiering, while other shows are ending and some just beginning. It’s a lot to take in, which is why we’ve assembled this list of the must-watch new movies and series hitting all the major streamers this month. Close the blinds, cancel your plans, and get to watching. Summer’s done – no one will blame you.
