What’s new on Apple TV+ this month (February 2025)

Anya Taylor-Joy and Miles Teller point guns in The Gorge.
Apple TV+

Although Apple TV+ has made some recent exceptions to its original content-only strategy, the slate of new content remains fairly slim each month. That doesn’t mean the streamer isn’t worth your time, however. Quite the contrary, Apple TV+ has delivered an astonishing hit rate for Oscar- and Emmy-winning movies and shows.

This February, the streamer brings back an under-the-radar drama for season 2 and puts out a PG-13 thriller starring Miles Teller and Anya Taylor-Joy called The Gorge.

Severance (2022)

Severance
83%
tv-ma
2 Seasons
Genre
Drama, Mystery, Sci-Fi & Fantasy
Stars
Adam Scott, Britt Lower, Zach Cherry
Created by
Dan Erickson
Watch on Apple TV+

Severance is bizarre. The show follows Mark Scout (Adam Scott), one of a few employees at Lumon Corporation to voluntarily undergo a procedure called “severance” that surgically divides their memories between their work and personal lives. At work, they perform their menial jobs in a sterile space, barely understanding what it is they’re there to do, yet fully committed to doing it right. They have absolutely no idea what their “other” lives are like. Mark eventually begins to suspect there are things about severance that weren’t fully disclosed. In season 2, the rabbit hole will go deeper.

Mythic Quest (2020)

Mythic Quest

Watch on Apple TV+

One of Apple TV+’s first comedy series, Mythic Quest was created by It’s Always Sunny … creators Rob McElhenney and Charlie Day. It stars McElhenney as pompous, legendary video game designer Ian (pronounced I-an) Grimm.

As head of the company building and the world’s biggest mass multiplayer game, Ian is an atrocious manager and incorrigible jerk who unsurprisingly creates a toxic workplace culture of fear, insecurity, and desperately competing egos. The strength of Mythic Quest is in its ensemble, headlined by Charlotte Nicdao, Danny Pudi, F. Murray Abraham, David Hornsby, Ashley Burch, Jessie Ennis, and Imani Hakim.

5 underrated movies on Netflix you need to watch in September 2024
Dwayne Johnson and Seann William Scott take a sweaty walk together.

Netflix should rename September to "Crime Month" as several murder-focused stories hit the service in the coming weeks. The Perfect Couple, a murder mystery series starring Nicole Kidman, is now streaming. The other noteworthy series, Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story, arrives later this month and explores the homicidal brothers from the 1990s.

The Perfect Couple and Monsters will dominate the Netflix top 10. Many films in Netflix's library might lose viewership because of these shows. That does not mean you should ignore them. Several movies listed below are underrated gems, including an entertaining heist from an auteur, a standout performance from an A-list star, and a cute coming-of-age romance.

A man leans on a man with a gun in The Inspection.

If you're going to the movie theaters this weekend, watch out! Nerds across the world will be invading multiplexes to watch the latest MCU movie, Deadpool & Wolverine, which promises more gratuitous cameos, more raunchy jokes about sex acts you've never heard of, and more lame Ryan Reynolds one-liners than a sane person can handle.

If you want to avoid all of that, well, I really can't blame you. Fortunately, Netflix has a library full of great, underrated movies to watch this weekend. The following three films are as different as can be, yet they all promise to deliver two hours of quality entertainment that is worth your time.
