The 81-year-old actor has never held a starring role on the small screen until Zero Day, the new political thriller arriving on Netflix this Thursday. The platform will also uphold its legacy of great sports docs with the release of Court of Gold which follows the journey of several pro ballers to the Paris Olympics.
Several popular shows are returning this week with new seasons on other platforms, too, including Prime Video’s Reacher, the Apple TV Plus series Surface and the Yellowstone prequel 1923, which will be back on Paramount Plus.
These titles and many more are arriving on streaming soon. Here’s all the info you need to tune in this week.
