What To Watch This Week 07.07.25

Too Much, Netflix 

Heartbroken and newly single, Jess – a loud, loveable New York ad exec – flees to London in search of her own British rom-com fantasy. What she finds instead is more grey skies, grim neighbours and culture shocks galore. Megan Stalter (Hacks) is magnetic as the chaotic lead in this transatlantic comedy from Lena Dunham (Girls) and Luis Felber. When she meets charming indie musician Felix (Will Sharpe, The White Lotus), things start to look up – but not everything is as it seems. Smart, stylish and brilliantly unfiltered, this one’s as much about emotional messiness as it is about romance.

Superman

James Gunn kicks off a bold new chapter in the DC Universe with this fresh take on the Man of Steel. David Corenswet (Pearl) stars as Clark Kent, a young journalist navigating life in Metropolis while secretly protecting it as Superman. Rachel Brosnahan (The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel) plays Lois Lane, with Nicholas Hoult (The Great) as a reimagined Lex Luthor. Balancing emotional depth with blockbuster spectacle, this isn’t an origin story – but a jumping-off point for a new era of heroes.

Jaws @ 50: The Definitive Inside Story, Disney+

Full of trivia and nostalgia, it’s a fascinating look at the blockbuster that made everyone afraid to go back in the water.

Foundation, Apple TV+

After a two-year break – and a 152-year time jump – Foundation returns with more galactic conflict, ambitious world-building and cinematic visuals. Based on Isaac Asimov’s legendary novels, season three finds Hari Seldon (Jared Harris, Chernobyl) and Brother Day (Lee Pace, Guardians of the Galaxy) navigating a future fraught with rebellion, prophecy and a mysterious new warlord (Pilou Asbæk, Game of Thrones).

Arcadia, Channel 4

Set in a future where citizens are ranked by social score, this Belgian export thriller follows one man’s attempt to cheat the system for the sake of his daughter – and the devastating consequences that follow. When his manipulation is exposed, the family is exiled to the chaotic ‘outer world’, where survival is far from guaranteed. Gritty, original, and eerily plausible, Arcadia puts a fresh spin on the dystopian genre, featuring slick visuals and smart storytelling.
