New-TV-In-February

After what’s felt like the longest month imaginable, we’ve finally waved goodbye to January. And, while the first month of 2022 was filled with plenty of movies and TV shows to stream, February is promising to deliver a similarly packed schedule.

Below, you’ll find some of the biggest films and TV shows set to debut or return to Netflix, Prime Video, HBO Max, and Disney Plus in February

Pam and Tommy (Disney+)

The leading co-stars Lily James and Sebastian Stan are unrecognizable and “undoubtedly at the top of their games” as Pam and Tommy, respectively. Meanwhile, Seth Rogen also excels as the disgruntled contractor who releases the tape on the internet for the whole world to see. You’ll come for the story and all-star cast, but stick around for the emotion-driven drama, surreal and obscene humour, and thematic commentary on privacy and the celebrity world

The Tinder Swindler (Netflix)

Speaking of true stories, Netflix is back to bring audiences another shocking documentary – this time exploring the murky world of online dating. Based on real-life events, The Tinder Swindler covers the astonishing story of an alleged billionaire playboy who seduced numerous women worldwide before extorting millions of dollars out of them. Refusing to be victims of a heinous crime, though, the affected women band together with one aim: make the Tinder Swindler meet his match and answer for his crimes

Raised by Wolves season 2 (Sky Atlantic)

Raised by wolves’ season 1 was something of a sleeper hit when it launched in 2020, amassing a cult following who viewed it as the spiritual successor to the Alien franchise’s crown.

While there are no necromorphs in this HBO Max sci-fi series, it’s hard not to look at it as the long-overdue and deserving inheritor of that mantle. Given legendary filmmaker Ridley Scott’s involvement as a producer, too, it’s unsurprising that fans have likened the two franchises.

Reacher (Amazon Prime Video)

Five years on from the Tom Cruise-starring Jack Reacher films, a new adaptation of Lee Child’s crime-thriller novel series looks to reinvent the military operative-turned-investigator for television.

Alan Ritchson stars as the titular character in the show’s first season, which is based on the plot of Child’s award-winning Killing Floor book. After he’s framed over the first homicide in 20 years in a small Georgian town, Reacher works alongside the authorities – well, when he’s not taking matters into his own hands – to uncover the real culprit as a larger conspiracy unravels around them

The Cuphead Show (Netflix)

Were you left infuriated by Studio MDHR’s hugely difficult Cuphead video game? Or has it completely passed you by, despite the 2D run-and-gun title being out for the past four years? Regardless, Netflix’s upcoming Cuphead TV adaptation is sure to interest you.

Based on the award-winning game, The Cuphead Show will follow the impulsive Cuphead and his more cowardly brother Mugman as they become embroiled in all kinds of misadventures. Season 1’s 12 episodes are each only 12 minutes long, too, so Netflix’s adaptation will be easily binge watchable in a single day for fans and families alike.
