With spring days away, Prime Video is betting big on series, leaving films in the wings—for now. Expect more original movies to surface soon; until then, Watch With Us has the first look at what’s next.

Spring is basically here, and Prime Video is clearly leaning harder on series than movies right now. That could change if more original films pop up, but for the moment the slate is heavy on action and comedy. No complaints from me.

What Prime Video is pushing this spring

Here are the five new movies and shows I actually think are worth your time. A couple are already streaming, a couple are right around the corner, and there are some fun industry quirks baked in (Bond rumors, Spider naming shenanigans, you know the drill).

  1. Pretty Lethal (2026 )

    If John Wick could spin Ballerina off one dancer, Prime Video decided to roll with five. This action-comedy- thriller throws together a troupe that barely tolerates each other: Bones (Maddie Ziegler), Princess (Lana Condor), Zoe (Iris Apatow), Chloe ( Millicent Simmonds), and Grace (Avantika). They get stranded somewhere remote in Europe and end up taking shelter with former dancer Devora Kasimer (Uma Thurman). Shocker: Devora is not hosting out of the kindness of her heart. When her plans turn nasty, the ballerinas have to turn their training into actual survival skills. Yes, it ’s exactly as pulpy as it sounds.

    Status: Now streaming on Prime Video.

  2. Bait (2026)

    Riz Ahmed stars as Shah Latif, a British actor who has never quite had that big, door-kicking moment. Then the press starts buzzing that he might be in the mix to play the next James Bond. Because Amazon now owns MGM (the studio behind Bond with EON), the show can actually have fun with that rumor mill without dodging the legality police. All that attention melts Shah’s brain a bit: is this the part that finally makes him, or the madness that breaks him? It’s a comedy, but the existential crisis is doing reps.

  3. Spider-Noir (2026) — May 27

    Sometimes the pitch writes itself: Nicolas Cage doing the trench-coated web-slinger vibe he voiced in Into the Spider-Verse, but in live action. Because of how the Sony/Marvel rights are carved up, the show side-steps using 'Spider-Man' in the title and keeps certain details 'legally distinct' — but it is absolutely playing in that moody, hardboiled sandbox. Expect noir spins on familiar allies and villains, and Prime Video is even offering a black-and-white version to really lean into the vibe.

    Premiere: May 27 on Prime Video.

  4. Jury Duty Presents: Company Retreat (2026)

    Think Jury Duty season 2, but without the courthouse. This time, an unsuspecting guy named Anthony Norman walks into a fully scripted workplace comedy where everyone but him is an actor. He’s hired as a temp at a fake company called Rockin' Grandma's Hot Sauce and gets swept into the annual retreat as a potential buyout looms. The heir-apparent is wildly underqualified, morale is iffy, and Anthony — bless him — keeps trying to fix things he doesn’t know are fake. The format still works because the show changes the playground and the rules just enough.

    Status: Now streaming on Prime Video.

  5. The Boys: Season 5 — April 8

    The endgame is here. Before the dust settles, Hughie (Jack Quaid), M.M. (Laz Alonso), Kimiko Miyashiro (Karen Fukuhara), and Serge (Tomer Capone) have to get out of prison — without help from Butcher (Karl Urban), who has basically left them to rot. Meanwhile Homelander (Antony Starr) has the President on a string and a scary amount of control over the country. Starlight (Erin Moriarty) is still standing up to Homelander and the Seven, and — surprisingly — A-Train (Jessie T. Usher) has her back. That gives the team a legit speedster in their corner for the final round.

    Premiere: April 8 on Prime Video.
