As another weekend rolls around, we're back with some more new streaming recommendations. First up, South Korean hit Hellbound, which took Netflix by storm back in 2021, returns for a second season, while Like a Dragon: Yakuza gives the video game a live-action adaptation over on Prime Video.

South Korean dark fantasy hit Hellbound returns for a second season on Netflix. Train to Busan helmer Yeon Sang-ho is back to direct the new installment of the show, which is set in a world where supernatural beings appear out of nowhere to condemn people to hell.

Kate Beckinsale stars in new espionage action thriller Black Canary on Prime Video. She plays Avery Graves, a CIA agent whose husband is kidnapped by terrorists who blackmail her into betraying her country to keep him safe.

Like a Dragon: Yakuza brings the video game of the same name to the small screen in a new live-action adaptation for Prime Video.

New documentary Road Diary: Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band follows the legendary singer-songwriter and his band as they rehearse and perform for their 2023-2024 world tour, interspersed with fly-on-the-wall moments backstage, archive footage, interviews with Springsteen, and fan tributes. The Boss' frequent collaborator and filmmaker Thom Zimny directed the doc.
Before
Available: Worldwide

Billy Crystal stars in Before, a new psychological thriller from Apple TV Plus. The When Harry Met Sally star plays Eli, a recently widowed child psychologist who discovers that his newest client, a troubled young boy, seems to have a connection to Eli's own past.

Trap
Available: US
Watch now: Max
M. Night Shyamalan's latest thriller, Trap, is now streaming on Max. Josh Hartnett stars as Cooper, a firefighter and doting dad accompanying his tween daughter Riley (Ariel Donoghue) to her favorite singer's concert. The only complication? Pop star Lady Raven (Saleka Night Shyamalan) is only playing the show in order to trap a notorious serial killer who's set to be in attendance – and let's just say that spells bad news for Cooper, a family man with a very, very dark secret…

Escape at Dannemora
Available: US
Watch now: Netflix
While we continue to count down the days until Severance season 2, revisit one of Ben Stiller's earlier stints in the director's chair with limited series Escape at Dannemora, now streaming on Netflix. Based on a true story, the seven-part show follows two convicted murderers (played by Benicio del Toro and Paul Dano) who escape from a maximum security prison in upstate New York with the help of a guard (Patricia Arquette) who becomes romantically entangled with both men.
If there's nothing here that tickles your fancy, then you might have to start looking into each streaming service's back catalogue, which can be a daunting task given how many titles they each host. Fear not, though... if you're a TV fan, then we've got you covered with our lists of the best Netflix shows, best Disney Plus shows, and the best Amazon Prime Video shows.
