Modern society is obsessed with outward beauty. What if there was a way to guarantee you could become more and more beautiful every day? In the world of The Beauty, physical perfection is attainable. The new sci-fi/body horror series comes from the, perhaps slightly twisted, mind of Ryan Murphy. The Beauty is based on the comic book series of the same name by Jeremy Haun and Jason A. Hurley (2015).

The Beauty is an STD that turns its host into a conventionally beautiful person, removing scars burning fat and enhancing beauty. Over half the country becomes infected, and many actively seek to contract it, creating a society obsessed with perfection. In today’s world where GLP’s have become all the rage, is it that farfetched? While initially seen as a blessing, the disease causes a minor fever that eventually burns the infected from the inside out, leading to a “horrible death”.

The story functions as a critique of modern societal obsession with beauty, corporate greed, and political corruption. It follows FBI agents (Even Peters & Rebecca Hall) investigating mysterious deaths in the high-fashion world, uncovering a conspiracy involving the viral miracle cure, and explores themes of beauty, sacrifice, and obsession, while the mysterious corporation behind The Beauty, run by Ashton Kutcher’s character, lurks in the shadows.

 The Beauty is scheduled to debut on January 21, 2026, on FX and Hulu in the U.S., and on Disney+ internationally on January 22, 2026.

The Gray House pulls together an exceptional ensemble cast and legendary producers to tell a Civil War story with profound contemporary resonance. The series stars Mary-Louise Parker, known for her nuanced portrayals of complex characters; Amethyst Davis, representing emerging talent; Daisy Head, adding depth; and Broadway legend Ben Vereen, whose presence lends gravitas to this narrative of four women operating the Underground Railroad during America’s most divisive conflict.

Co-produced by Kevin Costner’s Territory Pictures and Morgan Freeman’s Revelations Entertainment, the collaboration brings together two creative visions. Costner brings his expertise in American historical drama, while Freeman’s commitment to centering Black voices and experiences ensures authentic representation of resistance and courage during the Civil War era.

The series’ historical relevance resonates powerfully today. By centering women, particularly Black women, as active agents of change rather than passive observers, The Gray House challenges traditional ways of telling history. The recounting of the history of clandestine networks, moral courage, and diverse coalitions united by shared convictions speaks directly to contemporary conversations about resistance, activism, and social justice.

At a time when debates about whose stories matter and how history should be remembered (accurately) dominate public discourse, The Gray House is a reminder that ordinary people doing extraordinary things have always shaped the course of history. 

Premiering on Amazon Prime Video February 16, 2026. For more, click here.

The wait is finally over to find out what happens in Netflix’s The Lincoln Lawyer. Season three ended with an emotional cliffhanger where Mickey Haller’s (Manuel Garcia-Rulfo) client’s dead body was found in his classic Lincoln’s trunk. The defense lawyer is now on the other side of the courtroom, with his life and reputation on the line, as a defendant in his own murder trial.

Based on Michael Connelly’s best-selling series of the same name, season four draws from the sixth book, The Law of Innocence. The show creators say this season is filled with The Lincoln Lawyer’s “signature twists, along with the unique mix of suspense, humor, and heart our fans love, as every character must face not only Mickey’s situation but their own personal struggles along the way.”

Haller’s fate heavily relies on his friends and family, including his assistant and ex-wife Lorna (Becki Newton), investigator and Lorna’s partner Cisco (Angus Sampson), driver Izzy (Jazz Raycole), and his other ex-wife and public defender, Maggie McPherson, also known as “Maggie McFierce” (Neve Campbell). Elliott Gould returns as David “Legal” Siegel, and Krista Warner as Mickey’s daughter, Hayley, along with new cast members like Constance Zimmer, Cobie Smulders, and Sasha Alexander. His support system is strong, but they face personal struggles in their own lives, so this season promises many twists and turns.
