This weekend, there’s a real plethora of great new movies on demand. Some of this year’s biggest blockbusters, including Thunderbolts and Ballerina, are now on VOD, along with other huge titles like Another Simple Favor, Tornado, and Ice Road: Vengeance. But amid all the high-octane action and big names attached to this week’s new releases, we’re also excited for the arrival of the new French romance Jane Austen Wrecked My Life.
Jane Austen Wrecked My Life, a French romantic comedy written and directed by Laura Piani, stars Camille Rutherford as Agathe Robinson, a French bookseller who writes a romance novel and finds herself at a writers residency where she becomes entangled in a love triangle. Sounds like the perfect antidote to superheroes and shoot-’em-ups if you ask me.
These are just a few of the films that are available to watch on Amazon Prime Video, iTunes, YouTube, and through your cable service this week. Check out what movies are available to buy or rent on demand now.
Marvel’s Thunderbolts, which arrived on demand this week, marks the final film in Phase Five of the MCU. (Ironheart, the new series that just dropped on Disney+, is the last show in Phase Five.) In Thunderbolts, Florence Pugh stars as Yelena Belova, the adopted sister of Scarlett Johansson’s Black Widow character. Yelena, a black widow assassin herself, is now leading a team of antiheroes, including Bucky Barnes (Sebastian Stan), John Walker (Wyatt Russell), Taskmaster (Olga Kurylenko), and Red Guardian (David Harbour) as they find themselves on a dangerous expedition that will redeem their reputations.
Ballerina, which is set in the John Wick universe and does indeed feature Keanu Reeves as our previously dead assassin, stars Ana de Armas as Eve, an assassin herself. After the death of her own father when she was a child, Eve was taken in by Winston, the character portrayed in every Wick movie by Ian McShane, who eventually trains her to be a trained killer (who also happens to be an actual ballerina). The film is out now on demand.
