🎬 Top Picks on Amazon Prime Video:

Heads of State

Heads Of State

Streaming from 2 July

This action-packed comedy stars Idris Elba and John Cena as the UK Prime Minister and US President teaming up to take down a global threat. It’s ridiculous in the best possible way—think James Bond meets The Office. Popcorn at the ready.

🔍 Cracking Crime Thrillers & Gripping Dramas

Ballard

Ballard

12 July

Maggie Q leads this gritty police thriller that’s full of dark twists and suspense. It’s got that “just one more episode” energy.

The Assassin

6 July

Keeley Hawes plays a retired hitwoman dragged back into action. Stylish, deadly, and perfect for fans of thrillers with an edge.
