Forget waiting for the weekend, this week is stacked. Whether you’re buying popcorn at the multiplex or settling in for a Netflix marathon, the new movies coming out this week deliver something for everyone: a DCU reboot with serious edge, one last (we promise) wild ride with the Jackass crew, a dinner party gone deliciously wrong, and a dash of high fashion, medieval intrigue, and big-brother chaos thrown in for good measure.
Leading the charge is Supergirl, DC’s grittier, angstier answer to the superhero genre, starring the breakout House of the Dragon talent Milly Alcock as Kara Zor-El, a young woman with a chip on her shoulder, a vendetta in her heart, and a very good dog by her side. Meanwhile, Johnny Knoxville and the gang are back to remind us that stupidity, when executed at an Olympic level, is genuinely an art form, in what they’re calling the final Jackass film. We’ll believe it when we see it.
Streaming fans aren’t left out, either. Netflix is delivering two wildly different offerings: John Cena in an unexpectedly heartfelt comedy about a man-child disrupting suburban life, and Oscar Isaac pulling double duty across centuries in the star-studded In the Hand of Dante. Rounding out the week, Seth Rogen and Olivia Wilde face marital mayhem, and Angelina Jolie takes Paris, and a life-altering phone call, in the elegant Couture.
It’s going to be a great week for movies! Check out the complete list below of all the new movies releasing in theaters and on streaming this week!
Rating: PG-13
Release Date: In theaters nationwide on Friday, June 26, 2026.
Summary: In Supergirl, Kara Zor-El (Milly Alcock), aka Supergirl, is a jaded young woman whose only friend is Krypton, known as Superdog. She was sent to Earth by her parents to be raised by her cousin Kal-El, known as Superman. Supergirl is about to go on an adventure that will test everything she believes in, and she is out for vengeance when her loved ones are threatened.
What to Watch For: James Gunn, Co-Chairman and Co-CEO of DC Studios, has decided that Supergirl will be grittier than the last Superman film.
Word on the Street: Milly Alcock is best known for her roles as Meg Adams in Upright and Young Rhaenyra Targaryen in House of the Dragon.
My Take: It has already been established that Milly Alcock’s Supergirl will have a major role in the DCU’s future beyond her return in the Superman follow-up film Man of Tomorrow (2027), which is currently filming in Atlanta, GA.

An author and Dante expert, Nick Tosches (Oscar Issac), is asked by a mafia don (John Malkovich) to confirm the existence of a handwritten manuscript of Dante’s “The Divine Comedy.” He is then asked to steal the manuscript. We also travel back to the 14th century, when Dante (also portrayed by Oscar Issac) questions his place in the world and struggles to write his opus.
What to Watch For: The outstanding cast includes Al Pacino, Jason Momoa, Gal Gadot, Gerard Butler, Martin Scorsese, Benjamin Clementine, Louis Cancelmi, Sabrina Impacciatore, Franco Nero, Claudio Santamaria, Guido Caprino, Paolo Bonacelli, and Dora Romano.
Word on the Street: The film is based on the book of the same name by Nick Tosches.
My Take: This is Martin Scorsese’s third film appearance this year. He previously voiced Hugo Durant in Star Wars: The Mandalorian and Grogu, and played Richie “Red” Rodriguez in Outcome.
