In the action-comedy Heads of State, the UK Prime Minister Sam Clarke (Idris Elba) and U.S. President Will Derringer (John Cena) have a not-so-friendly and very public rivalry that jeopardizes their countries’ “special relationship.” But when they become the targets of a powerful and ruthless foreign adversary—who proves more than a match for the two leaders’ security forces—they are begrudgingly forced to rely on the only two people they can trust: each other. Ultimately allied with the brilliant MI6 agent Noel Bisset (Priyanka Chopra Jonas), they must go on the run and find a way to work together long enough to thwart a global conspiracy that threatens the entire free world. The film also stars Paddy Considine, Stephen Root, Carla Gugino, Jack Quaid and Sarah Niles and is directed by Ilya Naishuller.

On November 13th, 2022 – in the still of the night – four University of Idaho students are brutally stabbed to death in an off-campus house in the quiet college town of Moscow, Idaho. Within the devastated families and the community at large, questions and fear abound. What happened? Who did this, and could the killer be among us? And why these four young adults? The twists and turns of what happens next – an explosion of social media sleuthing, a cross-country manhunt, a dramatic arrest, and a looming trial – have made this crime one of the most high-profile stories of the last decade, capturing the country’s attention, imagination, and paranoia like almost no other case before it.

Told in captivating, tense, and emotionally wrenching detail by only those involved in and affected by the crime, this four-part series intimately explores this American tragedy and its continued impact and fallout.

17 JULY

• SUITS – SEASONS ONE to NINE (SERIES) 

23 JULY

• SHINY HAPPY PEOPLE: A TEENAGE HOLY WAR – SEASON TWO (DOCU SERIES)

Shiny Happy People, the critically acclaimed docuseries which unveiled the truth behind the Duggar Family and IBLP returns for a second season.  Shiny Happy People: A Teenage Holy War, moves on from IBLP and dives headfirst into the Evangelical teen pop culture that exploded across the U.S. in the 90’s and 00’s, and the larger forces focused on harnessing their earnest faith for far-reaching influence.

Directed by the Oscar-nominated, Emmy-winning filmmakers Nicole Newnham and Cori Shepherd, Shiny Happy People: A Teenage Holy War focuses on the controversial organisation Teen Mania – once America’s largest youth ministry, attracting millions through their wildly popular stadium shows known as “Acquire the Fire.”

The series bursts with peak Millennial nostalgia and cringe, featuring colossal stadiums filled with teens enraptured by religious rock anthems, inspired to swear purity oaths and eagerly embark by the thousands on culturally questionable global missions. But beneath the wholesome youth group illusion lies a darker undercurrent: a high-pressure pipeline of brutal spiritual bootcamps, surreal role-playing scenarios, and relentless psychological control – all under the command of a charismatic leader with endlessly expanding ambitions.
