If you love a thriller, you’re in luck. This week’s release of new movies and shows is full of mind games, mystery, and murder.
HIS & HERS stars Tessa Thompson as Anna, a reporter, opposite Jon Bernthal as Jack, a detective. The two are married but estranged, and when a body is discovered in their sleepy Georgia town, they compete to solve the case — and each believes the other is a prime suspect. Pablo Schreiber, Crystal Fox, Marin Ireland, and Sunita Mani are also part of the six-episode adaptation of Alice Feeney’s novel.
Land of Sin centers on a murder investigation in the Scanian countryside in Sweden and the old family feuds reignited in the process. The Following sees Kevin Bacon playing an FBI agent targeted by a serial killer he once imprisoned — someone who’s since escaped from death row and cultivated a devout fan base. And Found stars Shanola Hampton as an expert in finding missing people, and she has some unconventional help: her former kidnapper, now captive in her basement.
Not into all that crime-solving and suspense? Queue up the stand-up comedy special Marcello Hernández: American Boy, the latest installment of the anime series Pokémon Horizons: Season 3: Rising Hope, or the second season of Love Is Blind: Germany. (Disclaimer: That last option has its share of secrets, riddles, and plot twists, of course.)
