Whether you’re craving high-stakes action or gripping drama, this month’s second half lineup has it all —promising an unforgettable January.

‘The 355’

When a top-secret weapon falls into the wrong hands, CIA wild card Mason Brown (Jessica Chastain) teams up with three unlikely allies to save the world from chaos. Alongside the relentless German agent Marie (Diane Kruger), tech-savvy MI6 specialist Khadijah (Lupita Nyong’o), and the level-headed Colombian psychologist Graciela (Penélope Cruz), she engages in a pulse-pounding race across the globe. But there’s a twist at every turn as a shadowy figure, Lin Mi Sheng (Fan Bingbing), seems always one step ahead, forcing the team to build a shaky trust that might secure the weapon or destroy them all.

‘The Young Pope’

After a shocking rise to power, Lenny Belardo (Jude Law) becomes the first American pope, adopting the name Pius XIII. His unexpected election is seen as a calculated gamble by the College of Cardinals, but Lenny quickly proves to be anything but predictable. Aloof and enigmatic, he defies Vatican traditions, relying solely on Sister Mary (Diane Keaton), as his trusted confidante.

‘The New Pope’

The New Pope picks up where The Young Pope left off, blending biting satire with gripping drama to peel back the gilded facade of the Vatican. When Sir John Brannox (John Malkovich), a refined and charismatic English aristocrat, rises to the papal throne as John Paul III, the Vatican is thrust into a new chapter of leadership.

‘Madam’

When Mack Leigh (Rachel Griffiths) discovers her husband’s infidelity and is drowning in debt, she takes an unexpected and bold step to secure her family’s future — launching an ethical brothel. Madam follows Mack’s daring attempt to challenge societal norms, redefine the meaning of sex work, and tackle the stigma surrounding her unconventional business.
