Marvel is back with a new heroine on the rise. “Ironheart” picks up after Black Panther: Wakanda Forever and centers on Riri Williams (Dominique Thorne), a genius teen inventor building next-gen iron suits.

But this isn’t your typical tech tale—Riri goes head-to-head with The Hood (Anthony Ramos), whose powers blend magic and menace.

Add in a Chicago backdrop, a fire cast (including Lyric Ross and Alden Ehrenreich), and some Wakandan ties, and we’re locked in.


2. “Countdown” (Prime Video) – Premieres June 25

If you’re into fast-paced thrillers with a ticking clock, “Countdown” will be your jam.

After a Homeland Security officer is murdered in broad daylight, an elite task force unravels a conspiracy that threatens millions.

It’s high-stakes action with a side of mystery and government intrigue.

Yes, Chef! “The Bear” returns for its fourth season, and the pressure is higher than ever.

With their new fine-dining spot open to the public, Carmy, Sydney, Richie, and the rest of the crew must balance perfection with personal chaos.

Expect the same intensity, humor, and heartbreak that made “The Bear” a breakout hit—just in a fancier kitchen.


4. “F1: The Movie” (Apple TV) – Premieres June 27

F1: The Movie stars a former racing legend (played by Brad Pitt) lured back to the track to save a failing team.

With a rookie by his side and decades of demons behind him, this is a comeback story set at 200 mph.

Brace yourselves—”Squid Game” is back, and it’s deadlier than ever. Season 3 picks up after Gi-hun’s devastating losses, betrayal, and a brewing war behind the scenes.

With new twists, terrifying games, and more at stake than ever before, Gi-hun faces his darkest chapter yet.

Will he survive, or will Front Man finally break him?


6. “M3GAN 2.0” (In Theaters) – Premieres June 27

She’s back—and even more terrifying. M3GAN 2.0 brings Gemma face-to-face with a new AI threat named Amelia, a weaponized spy bot with a mind of her own.

To stop her, Gemma reboots M3GAN, but the upgrade might be more lethal than anyone bargained for.

Buckle up for a high-tech horror ride with serious Black Mirror vibes.
