One of the highlights is the second season of Poker Face, the comedy crime series from Oscar-nominated director Rian Johnson. The series, starring the inimitable Natasha Lyonne, returns on Thursday, July 17, with a series of special guest stars. On Friday, September 12, Dexter: Resurrection will be released, with Golden Globe winner Michael C. Hall returning as the iconic serial killer. This series also features notable guest stars, including Uma Thurman and Peter Dinklage.
Additionally, SkyShowtime is expanding the universe of Taylor Sheridan – the Oscar-nominated creator behind a string of successful drama series – with the third season of Tulsa King starring Sylvester Stallone, the fourth season of Mayor of Kingstown starring Jeremy Renner, and the second season of Landman starring Billy Bob Thornton, Demi Moore, Andy Garcia and Sam Elliott.
The line-up also includes new, gripping titles. For example, there is the thriller All Her Fault with Sarah Snook and Dakota Fanning, Atomic with Alfie Allen and Samira Wiley, and The Iris Affair with Niamh Algar and Tom Hollander. The comedy series Ted, by Seth MacFarlane, is also returning for a second season. For true crime fans, there are two new crime documentaries: Devil in Disguise: John Wayne Gacy and The Murder of JonBenét Ramsey.
In the comedy department, SkyShowtime is bringing a brand new mockumentary titled The Paper. Coming exclusively to the platform this fall, the series is developed by Greg Daniels (The Office) and Michael Koman (Nathan for You) and stars Domhnall Gleeson and Sabrina Impacciatore.
Existing audience favorites will also get a place on the platform. From Friday June 20, all seasons of The Office will be available. On Thursday July 17, Suits will follow, of which all seasons can also be viewed in their entirety. Following that, the new spin-off Suits LA will be launched on Thursday August 28. Science fiction series and crime series are represented by the third season of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds, which will premiere on August 4, and the latest addition to the NCIS franchise, NCIS: Tony & Ziva, which will be released this fall.
In addition to international content, SkyShowtime is investing heavily in local Originals. The Spanish Original Arcadia is one of the new titles that will be shown later this year, as well as the highly anticipated comedy Nails. From Poland come two unique productions: the crime series Glina, a sequel to the cult classic of the same name, and the documentary Krychowiak: One Step from the Top, both of which will be released this year. From Scandinavia comes the Swedish comedy-drama Where the Sun Always Shines, from the acclaimed creator Felix Herngren, which will be released on Monday 10 November. The same day also sees the launch of the second season of the crime drama Veronika, directed by Oscar nominee Mikael Håfström.
SkyShowtime is also promising an impressive slate of blockbusters this summer and fall. Here’s a sampling of what to expect: Nosferatu, a stylish, gothic horror film directed by Robert Eggers starring Bill Skarsgård, Lily-Rose Depp, and Nicholas Hoult; The Brutalist, a dramatic arthouse film starring Adrien Brody, Felicity Jones, and Guy Pearce; Anora, winner of five Academy Awards, including Best Picture; and Wicked, the musical starring Grammy winners Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande.
