Your Ultimate Streaming Guide for July 2026: Project Hail Mary, Silo Season 3, and The Five-Star Weekend

July 2026 Is Packed — Here's What You Should Actually Watch

If your watchlist is overflowing and you have no idea what to pick this July, don't worry — we've got you covered. From Ryan Gosling blasting off into space in Project Hail Mary to Jennifer Garner hosting the ultimate girls' trip in The Five-Star Weekend, this month is absolutely stacked across every major streaming platform.

Big Movie Premieres You Can't Skip

Project Hail Mary (Prime Video, July 3) is the sci-fi adaptation that book nerds have been losing their minds over for years. Ryan Gosling stars as Ryland Grace, an astronaut who wakes up alone on a spacecraft with no memory — tasked with saving Earth from extinction. Based on Andy Weir's bestselling novel (the guy who wrote The Martian), this one is directed by Phil Lord and Christopher Miller (Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse). Expect emotional gut-punches and a surprisingly adorable alien companion named Rocky.

If you're more into ensemble drama, The Five-Star Weekend (Peacock, July 9) adapts Elin Hilderbrand's bestselling beach read. Jennifer Garner plays Hollis Shaw, a celebrity chef grieving her husband's death, who gathers her closest friends — played by Regina Hall, Chloë Sevigny, D'Arcy Carden, and Gemma Chan — for a transformative long weekend on Nantucket. Think Big Little Lies but with better food and more wine.

Series Comebacks and Netflix Originals

Silo returns for Season 3 on Apple TV+ (July 3), with Rebecca Ferguson diving deeper into the dystopian underground bunker mystery. If you've been hooked since Season 1, this season promises answers to some of the biggest questions — plus new cast members joining the ensemble.

Netflix is dropping Enola Holmes 3 (July 1), bringing Millie Bobby Brown back as Sherlock's sharp-witted younger sister. Henry Cavill returns as Sherlock, and this installment takes the mystery to new international locations. Also on Netflix: the live-action Little House on the Prairie adaptation (July 9) starring Luke Bracey, and Hamnet — Chloé Zhao's historical drama that's already generating Oscar buzz.

Over on HBO Max, shark lovers rejoice: it's Shark Week starting July 26, with new specials and the entire Jaws franchise available for your annual rewatch. And don't sleep on The Drama (July 31), the A24 film starring Zendaya and Robert Pattinson that's been making waves on the festival circuit.

Whether you're into sci-fi epics, beach drama, or dystopian mysteries, July 2026 has something for everyone. Just make sure your subscriptions are sorted before the month kicks off.
