Summer’s practically knocking on the door and bringing plenty of new movies and TV shows to watch this weekend on Netflix, Prime Video and more of the best streaming services. If you’d rather spend the last weekend of May planted in front of the A/C than outside sweating through your T-shirt, the streamers have you covered.
Two Netflix hits return for their second seasons: “The Four Seasons” brings middle-aged vacation hijinks, while “A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder” delivers more teen sleuthing. Meanwhile, “Spider-Noir” swings into pulp detective territory, and “Hacks” takes its final bow.
On the movie side, John Travolta’s directorial debut, “Propeller One-Way Night Coach,” can jet you back to the golden age of air travel. Here’s our guide on what to watch this weekend.

‘Spider-Noir’ (MGM+ and Prime Video)

Watch On
The vibes: “Into the Spider-Verse” filtered through cigarette smoke and pulp-fiction grime.
The plot: In a rain-slicked 1930s New York that looks permanently stuck at midnight, “Spider-Noir” stars Nicolas Cage as Ben Reilly, a burned-out PI who’s dragged back into a superhero identity he’d rather keep buried. There are gangsters, ghosts from his past and moody lighting. Cage, unsurprisingly, sounds right at home growling hard-boiled one-liners like he’s been living on whiskey and bad decisions for decades.

The vibes: “White Lotus” minus the murder and maybe even more dysfunction (and wine).
The plot: Tina Fey’s friendship dramedy heads back out on the road for another round of vacations, awkward dinners and overpacked emotional baggage. Kate (Fey), Jack (Will Forte), Danny (Colman Domingo), Claude (Marco Calvani), Anne (Kerri Kenney-Silver) and Ginny (Erika Henningsen) bounce from the Jersey Shore to upstate New York to Italy while trying to process Nick’s death and Ginny’s pregnancy. Expect at least one dinner table moment that not even dessert can fix.

The vibes: Nancy Drew has a smartphone and trust issues.
The plot: Pip (Emma Myers) solved one murder and apparently learned nothing about staying out of trouble. Just as Max Hastings’ trial heats up, a key witness disappears, pulling Pip and Ravi Singh (Zain Iqbal) into another messy small-town mystery with increasingly dangerous consequences. The second season doubles down on the teen-sleuthing, with every text looking suspicious and every secret coming with receipts.

The vibes: The alt-history you know from “For All Mankind,” with a lot more paranoia.
The plot: This spinoff flips over to the Soviet side of the space race saga, where moon-landing glory earns increased suspicion and state control. After the USSR beats America to the moon in the ’60s, the series follows cosmonauts, engineers and KGB operatives all trapped under the same watchful — and sometimes deadly — eye. The cosmos is just another battlefront in the Cold War.

The vibes: The final curtain call for Deborah and Ava.
The plot: Deborah (Jean Smart) has already survived losing her late-night show and her Madison Square Garden moment, somehow turning it all into a triumphant Central Park stand-up set instead. Now she and Ava (Hannah Einbinder) escape to Paris for what’s supposed to be a long-awaited vacation, but neither can outrun what’s next. Deborah is set to open her boutique Vegas casino, while Ava develops her comedy pilot, setting them on diverging paths that still feel co-dependently intertwined.

The vibes: Pan Am nostalgia from a child’s viewpoint.
The plot: John Travolta’s deeply personal directorial debut takes place on a 1962 flight from New York to Hollywood. Jeff is an 8-year-old aviation nut who boards a cross-country night flight with his aspiring-actress mother and encounters roomy interiors, glamorous stewardesses and surprise upgrades. It’s an experience that shows him the magic of air travel — you know, before it became the soul-crushing endurance sport it is today.

Watch On
The vibes: Brat Summer has a nasty hangover and a panic spiral.
The plot: Charli XCX turns her big pop-cultural peak into a funny, occasionally vicious self-drag. It’s not a concert movie but more of a backstage identity crisis via mockumentary. Playing a brittle, overcaffeinated version of herself, she spends the lead-up to her arena tour navigating label notes, brand deals, unhinged creative partners, and the feeling that everyone wants “Brat” to last forever — except her.
