If you've yet to start compiling your summer watchlist, look no further than Hulu's latest movie library refresh, which is set to arrive in the coming weeks.
As always, it's the movies with over 90% on Rotten Tomatoes that we keep an eye out for, and once again, Hulu is delivering – we'd expect nothing less from one of the best streaming services.
The sci-fi classic Aliens (1986) will be coming to the platform along with six other installments from the Alien franchise which, along with Doug Liman's Edge of Tomorrow (2014), makes it a great month for sci-fi and action fans.
But it's not just sci-fi that's making waves on Hulu this month There are highly-rated dramas, including a Woody Allen comedy-drama and a Richard Linklater romance, both from the early 2010s, plus a 2023 western.
RT score: 94%Runtime: 137 minutesDirector: James CameronArriving on: June 1
Aliens debunks the myth that the original is better than the sequel; it was one of the highest grossing movies of 1986, it earned Sigourney Weaver an Oscar nomination, and is still highly favored over the prequel Alien (1979) by critics and sci-fi buffs alike.
In the years following the alien attack on a spaceship, sole survivor Lt. Ripley (Weaver) has been floating through space for the past 57 years when she's rescued by the Weyland-Yutani Corporation. After losing communications with the human colony where the original alien eggs were found, Ripley returns to the site to find it completely destroyed along with a terrified young girl named Newt (Carrie Henn).
RT score: 98%Runtime: 109 minutesDirector: Richard LinklaterArriving on: June 1
In 1995 Richard Linklater directed Before Sunrise, the first movie in his romantic drama trilogy and where the love story between Jesse (Ethan Hawke) and Celine (Julie Delpy) all began.
The third installment sees the return of Linklater's characters almost 10 years after the release of Before Sunset (2004), the second chapter in their love story. Now a couple, the final movie follows Jesse and Celine on a Greek vacation with their children. Reflecting on the ups and downs on their relationship history the two reminisce in their love story, remembering the very first time they met 20 years prior on a train to Vienna.
RT score: 90%Age rating: Runtime: 98 minutesDirector: Woody AllenArriving on: June 1
Give me anything with Cate Blanchett, and I shall be sat. As well as Blanchett, this Woody Allen comedy-drama stars more familiar faces from Alec Baldwin, to Sally Hawkins, and Bobby Cannavale - earning Blanchett the Best Actress Oscar.
New York socialite Jasmine (Blanchett) is going through a rough patch and her marriage to her rich businessman husband Hal (Baldwin) is failing miserably. With no where else to go she moves to San Francisco to live with her sister Ginger (Hawkins), a working-class woman and the total opposite to Jasmine. Though she has limited life and job skills, she is forced to take up a regular job with which is reluctant, and start a new life away from the high society culture she's used to.
RT score: 91%Age rating: PG-13Runtime: 113 minutesDirector: Doug Liman Arriving on: June 1
Before directing Edge of Tomorrow, Doug Liman had previous experience working on action movies, most notably The Bourne Identity (2002) and Mr & Mrs. Smith (2005), all of which laid the groundwork for his approach to taking on a high-value production with Tom Cruise and Emily Blunt at the forefront.
In this sci-fi action epic, Europe has succumbed to an invasion of an invincible alien race. Public relations officer with no combat experience William Cage (Cruise) is tasked with a suicide mission, and is killed instantly. He learns that he's caught in a time loop, and after reliving the same fights and death over again his skills and strength grow stronger bringing him and comrade Rita (Blunt) closer to victory.
RT score: 91%Age rating: RRuntime: 99 minutesDirector: Luke GilfordArriving on: June 5
The newest release in my list comes from 2023, and is a western drama flick by Luke Gilford in his feature directorial debut. After premiering at South by Southwest in 2023 Film and TV festival, it had a theatrical release in summer 2024.
This is western like you've never seen it done before. Dylan (Charlie Plummer) is a 21-year-old construction worker with a soft nature, taking jobs wherever he can to support his family. He comes across a new job at a New Mexico ranch ran by queer rodeo performers, and is immediately welcomed into their family. When Dylan meets Sky (Eve Lindley), he uncovers an emotional connection with her and, much like the others, starts putting the pieces of his own identity together.

Charisma Carpenter Says It Would Be 'Poetic' to Return as Cordelia in BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER Reboot — GeekTyrant

Charisma Carpenter is ready to stake her claim in the upcoming Buffy the Vampire Slayer revival, if given the chance. In a recent interview with IGN, the actress expressed a genuine desire to return as Cordelia Chase in Hulu's in-development Buffy sequel series. For Carpenter, it's not just about nostalgia; it's about closure. She said: 'I am so excited for fans, and I know it will be fantastic because of who's involved. To see this actually happen for the fans makes me thrilled. I am so hopeful to be included, for Cordelia to be a part of this new iteration.' Cordelia was a central character across both Buffy and its spinoff Angel , undergoing one of the more dramatic character evolutions in the Buffyverse. From popular high school queen bee to higher-plane vision warrior, her arc was one of the richest… until it wasn't. Carpenter didn't hold back when discussing how Cordelia's story ended. 'Listen, you're not gonna get an argument out of me. Because the way it went down for her was just — without using inflammatory language — just was not… she was built up so big, she'd grown so much, she'd had this remarkable journey, and for her to go out the way that she did just felt so unjust.' Cordelia's death in Angel Season 5 was abrupt and controversial, especially for fans who had followed her through all that growth. She added: 'I don't know really what to make of it. I'm sure there are caveats — Cordelia died on Angel, not on Buffy. I don't know what that means for Cordelia specifically — but I'm hopeful that it includes Cordelia obviously, it would be a dream to be included, and it would just be so poetic for that to occur, and for it to occur with this group.' Death has never been a permanent condition in the Buffy universe. Buffy herself died (twice!) and came back. Carpenter pointed that out too: 'Writers are wildly creative,' she said, hinting that resurrection is just a plot twist away. The new Buffy reboot is being spearheaded by Oscar-winner Chloé Zhao, who's directing the pilot written by Poker Face duo Nora and Lilla Zuckerman. Even Sarah Michelle Gellar, who isn't confirmed to return as Buffy, expressed her excitement for the new series and the potential return of familiar faces. 'It will be lighter than the last few seasons of the original. We will try to find a balance between new and old characters. My dream is to bring back everyone who has died, but space will have to be made for new stories as well.' If Gellar gets her wish, and if Carpenter's dream becomes reality, Cordelia's story might not be over after all.

Boys Go to Jupiter to get more ...isometric.

Posted Jul 3, 2025 at 5:06 PM UTC Boys Go to Jupiter to get more ...isometric. From director Julian Glander ( Summer Camp Island ), Boys Go to Jupiter revolves around Billy 5000 (Jack Corbett) — a gig worker whose life is upended when he stumbles across an alien egg that hatches into a small creature he must take care of. The movie looks equal parts inspired, adorable, and like something worth checking out when it hits theaters on August 8th.
