Hi, {{first_name | friend}}!
What the streaming gods (corporate suits) giveth, they also taketh away.
Last night marked the much-needed end of Euphoria, and I'm still reeling from last Thursday’s Hacks finale. If you need a place to process, I'll be breaking down the end of my favorite scripted comedy in this week's edition of Worth the Chat (my new newsletter, part of Pix Plus), out tomorrow. And yes, I'll absolutely be sharing my thoughts on the Summer House reunion, too.
The good news? Hundreds of movies landed on your favorite platforms this morning, and this week's premiere slate is one of the most stacked we've seen all year—from seriously prestige dramas to raunchy rom-coms and beyond.
Happy streaming,
Meredith

The Biggest Premieres of the Week
There’s truly something for everyone this week. In fact, two new seasons of Love Island, a Spielberg-and Scorsese-produced drama, a fresh vampire series, a Mindy Kaling rom-com, and a shockingly shredded Nicholas Galitzine don't even crack my top two picks.
Office Romance
Streaming June 5 on Netflix
NSFW takes on new meaning in this raunchy workplace romance starring Jennifer Lopez and Brett Goldstein. Will it earn a spot alongside JLo's rom-com greats like The Wedding Planner, or fall somewhere closer to Marry Me territory? Either way, I’ll be clocking in to watch day one.
Scary Movie 6
In theaters June 5
If the movie is half as good as the marketing campaign, then we are so back! Anna Farris, Regina Hall, and the Wayans brothers reunite to roast a new generation of horror hits, taking aim at everything from Squid Game and M3GAN to Get Out, Sinners, and beyond.

Every Year After
Premieres June 10 on Prime Video
With The Summer I Turned Pretty in the rearview mirror, a new sun-soaked second-chance romance is stepping up to carry the torch. And yes, there's a messy love triangle involved.
