All 6 Hollywood & OTT Releases This Week —Overview

1. Backrooms — Sci-Fi Horror | Theatres

Directed by Kane Parsons and starring Chiwetel Ejiofor and Renate Reinsve, Backrooms follows therapist Dr. Mary Kline as she enters an otherworldly, shifting labyrinth of industrial rooms — hidden behind a furniture showroom — to rescue her missing patient Clark. Think interdimensional dread meets psychological horror. If creepy liminal spaces give you the chills, this one has your name on it.

2. Pressure — War Drama | Theatres

Starring Brendan Fraser and Andrew Scott, Pressure is set during the tense 72 hours before D-Day, following General Dwight D. Eisenhower and Captain James Stagg as they face the impossible decision of launching the largest seaborne invasion in history — or risking everything. This is the kind of tightly wound, character-driven war drama that stays with you long after the credits roll. The D-Day landings remain one of history’s most decisive turning points, and this film promises to humanise that impossible pressure like never before.

3. Tuner — Crime Thriller | Theatres (India)

Directed by Daniel Roher and starring Leo Woodall, Dustin Hoffman, and Havana Rose Liu, Tuner follows a gifted piano tuner whose meticulous, detail-obsessed skills lead him to an unexpected talent — cracking safes — which proceeds to turn his life completely upside down. It’s a quirky premise that sounds irresistible for fans of slow-burn thrillers with an artistic twist.

4. The Breadwinner — Family Comedy | Theatres

Starring Nate Bargatze, Mandy Moore, and Kumail Nanjiani, The Breadwinner tells the story of a lifelong salesman who is forced to become a stay-at-home dad to his three daughters after his wife lands a life-changing Shark Tank deal. A warm, funny role-reversal comedy perfect for a family night out.

5. Spider Noir — Superhero Noir | Prime Video

With Nicolas Cage leading the cast, Spider Noir is set in 1930s New York and follows Ben Reilly — a down-on-his-luck, ageing private investigator haunted by personal tragedy — who is forced back into his role as the city’s only masked protector against dangerous gangsters. Dark, gritty, and dripping with noir atmosphere, this Prime Video series is arguably the most exciting streaming debut of the week.

6. A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder Season 2 — Mystery Thriller | Netflix

Returning on May 27, A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder Season 2 picks up with Pip Fitz-Amobi in the aftermath of Andie’s case, now struggling with the weight of her previous investigation while shifting focus to building a legal case against Max Hastings — until a shocking confession and a chilling disappearance put her in grave danger once again. If you binged Season 1, you already know there’s no way you’re skipping this.
