NOT DEAD YET
10 May – All Episodes Available
“Not Dead Yet” follows Nell Serrano (Gina Rodriguez), a broke and newly single, self-described disaster, working to restart the life and career she left behind 10 years ago. When she lands the only job she can find — writing obituaries — Nell starts getting life advice from an unlikely source.
THE MUPPETS MAYHEM
10 May – All Episodes Available
The Disney+ Original comedy series follows The Electric Mayhem Band on an epic, music-filled journey that’s sure to have you laughing out loud.
Join Dr. Teeth on vocals and keyboards, Animal on drums, Floyd Pepper on vocals and bass, Janice on vocals and lead guitar, Zoot on saxophone and Lips on trumpet. With the help of a driven young music executive, Nora, the old-school Muppet band comes face to face with the current day music scene as they try to finally record their first-ever studio album.
WHITE MEN CAN’T JUMP
19 May
From 20th Century Studios, the all-new comedy White Men Can’t Jump updates the iconic 1992 movie that first celebrated the streetball-hustling culture of Los Angeles.
Multi-platinum rap superstar Jack Harlow makes his feature film debut as Jeremy, a former star whose injuries stalled his career, while Sinqua Walls stars as Kamal, a once-promising player who derailed his own future in the sport. Juggling tenuous relationships, financial pressures and serious internal struggles, the two hoopers—who are seemingly complete opposites —join forces to take one final shot at living out their dreams.
AMERICAN BORN CHINESE
24 May – All Episodes Available
The star-studded ‘American Born Chinese’ is based on Gene Luen Yang’s ground-breaking graphic novel that chronicles the trials and tribulations of a regular American teenager whose life is forever changed when he befriends the son of a mythological god. This is the story of a young man’s battle for his own identity, told through family, comedy, and action-packed Kung-Fu.
With clever humour and sharp commentary on the challenges of being Chinese American, ‘American Born Chinese’ is a must-watch for anyone who loves a good laugh and a heart-warming story of self-discovery.
