Breaking free isn’t that easy when both the FBI and a terrifyingly ruthless crime lord are tracking your every move. Anya isn’t just starring in this—she’s also the executive producer, alongside a stellar cast including Drew Starkey, Annette Bening, and Timothy Olyphant. It’s chic, fast-paced, and wildly suspenseful.

5. Human Vapor

For the sci-fi and thriller enthusiasts, Human Vapor is set to be the most talked-about sci-fi drop of the summer. A modern remake of the classic 1960 Japanese thriller, the story kicks off when a man literally floats up and vanishes into thin air on live television. Enter the ‘Human Vapor’—an elusive, terrifying serial killer who can transform his body into gas, easily slipping past any security barrier to catch his targets.

6. Elle

• Where to watch: Prime Video
• Release Date: July 1, 2026

Before she conquered Harvard Law and gave us the iconic “bend and snap,” Elle Woods was just a teenage girl trying to survive the nineties. This highly anticipated Legally Blonde prequel takes us back to 1995. When teenage Elle is forced to move away from the sunny paradise of California to a gloomy school in Seattle, her bright, all-pink wardrobe and bubbly personality completely clash with her moody, grunge-loving classmates. Watching her navigate high school drama while staying true to herself is the ultimate nostalgia trip. Get ready for some serious 90s fashion inspiration!

The mind-twisting dystopian drama is officially back for a third season, and the stakes have never been higher.

Meanwhile, flashbacks to the ‘Before Times’ reveal a massive conspiracy that triggered the end of the world.
