There's plenty of TV and movie goodness coming out across the streaming platforms in April.
Whether you're in the mood for action with some Hollywood greats, or fancy getting cosy with a gripping drama, there's something to keep you going.
Here's what's coming to streaming channels in April 2024!
Andrew Scott, Johnny Flynn and Dakota Fanning star in a limited series based on the best-selling Tom Ripley crime novels.
In the psychological thriller, Scott plays Tom Ripley, a grifter scraping by in early 1960s New York, is hired by a wealthy man to travel to Italy to try to convince his vagabond son to return home. Tom's acceptance of the job is the first step into a complex life of deceit, fraud and murder.
If that all sounds familiar, it’s because the same story was adapted in 1999 for the big screen, with the likes of Matt Damon, Jude Law and Philip Seymour Hoffman.
Based on the hit Edinburgh Fringe one-man play, Baby Reindeer follows the extraordinary journey of struggling comedian Donny Dunn, who has a strange relationship with stalker Martha, played by Jessica Gunning.
What begins as a simple act of kindness soon spirals into a chilling tale of obsession and psychological turmoil, pushing Donny to confront his deepest fears and darkest secrets.
The true story of the women who took Prince Andrew to task in the now infamous 2019 Newsnight interview is getting the Netflix treatment.
Sex Education star Anderson plays formidable journalist Emily Maitlis while Doctor Who star Piper plays Newsnight producer Sam McAlister. Scoop is also based on the memoir of the real-life McAlister.
Like the book, the film will detail how Newsnight went about securing the show’s Prince Andrew interview in the wake of Virginia Giuffre’s sexual assault allegations about the Prince, which he has always denied.
In Scoop, The Diplomat’s Rufus Sewell stars as Prince Andrew, while Connor Swindell plays the role of Jae Donnelly, a photographer who took photos of Prince Andrew walking in New York with Jeffrey Epstein, and Charity Wakefield stars as Princess Beatrice.
The second half of the Rebel Moon saga continues with The Scargiver - five months on from the release of Part One: A Child of Fire.
Part Two sees Kora (Sofia Boutella) and the surviving warriors “prepare to sacrifice everything, fighting alongside the brave people of Veldt, to defend a once peaceful village, a newfound homeland for those who have lost their own in the fight against the Motherworld.
“On the eve of their battle the warriors must face the truths of their own pasts, each revealing why they fight. As the full force of the Realm bears down on the burgeoning rebellion, unbreakable bonds are forged, heroes emerge, and legends are made.”
Move over The Last of Us, there’s a new video game adaptation in town.
