Every week, MobileSyrup outlines some of the most notable new movies and TV shows. We typically focus on new content from Amazon’s Prime Video, Crave, Disney+ and Netflix, but other services like Apple TV+ and Paramount+ will be mentioned when relevant. Premium video-on-demand (PVOD) platforms are also fair game as movies continue to come to digital early.
Finally, we’ll highlight shows or movies that are made by Canadian companies, involve notable Canadian cast or crew, and/or are filmed in Canada.
