Peacock’s film vault just flexed. From a brand-new Lanthimos mind-bender to stone-cold classics like RoboCop, the NBCUniversal streamer has stacked 15 titles worth clearing your night for.
New & Now
Lanthimos reunites with Emma Stone in Bugonia (118 min). She plays a pharma CEO abducted by tin-foil hatters convinced she’s an alien bent on planetary doom. Jesse Plemons and Aidan Delbis co-star.
Throwback Power
RoboCop (102 min) still crackles as Peter Weller‘s murdered cop returns as a justice-seeking cyborg. Kathy Bates‘ Oscar turn in Misery (107 min) reminds us fandom can be fatal. Scorsese‘s The Wolf of Wall Street (180 min) lets Leonardo DiCaprio and Jonah Hill loose in a cocaine-fueled rise-and-fall.
- The Fabelmans (151 min) – Spielberg mirrors his own childhood
- Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy (127 min) – Gary Oldman hunts a Soviet mole
- Sicario (121 min) – Denis Villeneuve and Taylor Sheridan escalate cartel tension
Family, Laughs & Adrenaline
Ryan Gosling and Emily Blunt spark stunt-fueled romance in The Fall Guy (126 min). Re-watch Keanu Reeves go undercover with Patrick Swayze‘s presidential-masked surfers in Point Break (122 min). Mike Myers, Eddie Murphy and Cameron Diaz keep Shrek (90 min) endlessly quotable, while the Pythons’ Holy Grail (91 min) remains comedy homework.
