Not letting up, Netflix also rolls out 'The Brothers Sun', a dark comedy-action series that jets between Taiwan and Los Angeles, with Michelle Yeoh and Justin Chien diving into a world of gangsters and family ties strained by an assassination.
For those craving something gripping yet real, 'Society of the Snow' hits hard, a Spanish survival drama by J.A. Bayona that recounts the harrowing 1972 Andes plane crash, earning Spain's nod for the 2023 Oscars.
If a step back in time is what you're after, 'Time Bomb Y2K' on Max serves up a nostalgic yet eye-opening documentary, revisiting the millennium bug panic with a mix of archival footage and a look at the digital revolution's broader implications.
And for those who can't resist the allure of Hollywood glam, the 81st Golden Globes streams on Paramount Plus, ready to be the perfect end to a weekend binge, showcasing the glitz and glamour that only a night of awards can bring.
