What to stream: Spielberg looks back at 'Jaws,' Clipse reunite and 'Bachelor in Paradise' is flirty
Steven Spielberg reflecting on his shark blockbuster in the documentary 'Jaws @ 50" and Clipse, the dynamic duo of Pusha T and Malice, returning for the album 'Let God Sort Em Out' are some of the new television, films, music and games headed to a device near you.
Also among the streaming offerings worth your time, as selected by The Associated Press' entertainment journalists: Burna Boy's eighth studio album, EA Sports' College Football 26 and Season 10 of 'Bachelor in Paradise,' which will include contestants from 'Golden Bachelor' and 'Golden Bachelorette.'
— Steven Spielberg reflects on the 'life altering experience' that was 'Jaws,' which celebrates its 50th anniversary this summer, in the new documentary 'Jaws @ 50: The Definitive Inside Story,' streaming on Disney+ and Hulu on Friday, July 11. Voices include those who worked on the film, like composer John Williams, production designer Joe Alves and actors like Jonathan Filley and Lorriane Gary, as well as filmmaker luminaries from James Cameron and Jordan Peele to George Lucas.
— Alex Ross Perry's experimental documentary about the '90s indie band Pavement ('Crooked Rain, Crooked Rain') will be streaming on Mubi on Friday, July 11. There are actors ('Stranger Things'' Joe Keery, Nat Wolff, Jason Schwartzman), the real guys (Stephen Malkmus), archival footage and irreverent stagings that help evoke the spirit of the band, and kind of tell their story, as unconventionally as possible. The AP named it one of the best of the year, so far.
— Writer-director Mark Anthony Green's debut movie 'Opus,' a cult-horror about a reclusive pop star and a mysterious retreat, did not receive the best reviews out of the Sundance Film Festival earlier this year. But it touts the kind of cast and intriguing premise that makes it a hard-to-resist curiosity, with Ayo Edebiri and John Malkovich leading, that begins streaming on HBO Max on Friday, July 11. In his AP review, Mark Kennedy wrote, 'How both could be totally miscast will haunt your dreams.' Kennedy added, 'Green wobbles as he tries to land this plane and what had been an intriguing premise to talk about fame and the parasitic industries that live off it turns into a gross-out, run-for-it bloodfest and a plot that unravels.'

— The rap record of the summer is here. Clipse, the dynamic duo of Pusha T and Malice, return for 'Let God Sort Em Out' on Friday, their first new project as a duo in over 15 years. They're as keen as ever; there's been no dull to either's flow in that time. And if that's not a strong enough co-sign, a quick look at the album's features will confirm its greatness: Kendrick Lamar, Tyler the Creator, Nas, Pharrell Williams, John Legend, The-Dream, Ab-Liva, Stove God Cooks and more are featured.
— Nigerian superstar Burna Boy, a leading voice in Afrobeats, will release his eighth studio album, 'No Sign of Weakness,' on Thursday. It's a high-energy good time, as first made apparent in the percussion-heavy 'TaTaTa' featuring rapper Travis Scott.
— It was one of the best-selling albums of all time. On Friday, July 11, Backstreet Boys' 1999 boy band classic, 'Millennium,' gets a facelift with the release of 'Millennium 2.0.' It's a deluxe reissue, now with a brand-new song, B-sides and live recordings. And that makes you larger than life.

— ABC's 'Bachelor in Paradise' marks its 10th season this summer with a golden twist. Contestants from 'The Golden Bachelor' and 'The Golden Bachelorette' are sent to a resort in Costa Rica to have fun in the sun and possibly make romantic connections. There's also a number of younger 'Bachelor' and 'Bachelorette' cast members who randomly get added to the mix. Jesse Palmer hosts with Bachelor Nation favorites Wells Adams serving as in-house bartender and Hannah Brown, who is in charge of Paradise Relations, whatever that means. It begins streaming Tuesday on Hulu.
— Peyton Manning's Netflix docuseries 'Quarterback' returns for a second season. Cameras follow NFL Quarterbacks Joe Burrow of the Cleveland Browns, Jared Goff of The Detroit Lions and Kirk Cousins. Cousins was also featured in Season 1 as the QB for the Minnesota Vikings but in Season 2 we see him injured from a torn Achilles. He eventually parts ways with the Vikings (who drafted Michigan's J.J. McCarthy ) and signs with the Atlanta Falcons. All eight episodes drop Tuesday.
— There's a 'Bosch' spinoff premiering Wednesday on Prime Video focusing on LAPD homicide detective Renée Ballard (who you may recognize from the 'Bosch: Legacy' series finale.) 'Ballard," starring Maggie Q as the titular character, is also based on books by Michael Connelly.
— Chip and Joanna Gaines' Magnolia Network presents 'a social experiment' where three families live 'Little House on the Prairie'-style for eight weeks. 'Back to the Frontier' streams a new episode for eight-weeks beginning Thursday on Max.
— Meg Stalter of 'Hacks' stars in a new Netflix comedy from Lena Dunham called 'Too Much.' It's a semi-autobiographical story about Dunham's life about a heartbroken New Yorker who moves to London to begin anew and finds herself drawn to a musician (Will Sharpe,) against her better judgment. An impressive roster of talent including Andrew Rannells, Naomi Watts, Kit Harington, Andrew Scott, Rhea Perlman, Richard E. Grant and Rita Ora make appearances. All 10 episodes drop Thursday.
— Dexter Morgan takes Manhattan in 'Dexter: Resurrection,' a sequel to 2021's 'Dexter: New Blood.' Michael C. Hall reprises his role as the serial killer who hunts other serial killers. In 'Resurrection,' Dexter meets a secret society of serial killers led by a character played by Peter Dinklage. David Zayas continues his role of detective Angel Batista from the original. It premieres Friday, July 11.
— The cast of 'Love Island USA' was so popular, they've got their own spin-off called 'Love Island: Beyond the Villa." The show follows six of the core cast living in LA as they adjust to the limelight and attempt to maintain their relationships. It debuts Sunday, July 13, on Peacock.
— MGM+ has an adaptation of Stephen King's 2019 novel 'The Institute.' It's about a teenage boy named Luke — with an exceptionally high intellect — who wakes up a strange, unknown facility run by the government that imprisons kids with unique abilities. The sci-fi horror series is eight-episodes and stars Ben Barnes and Mary-Louise Parker. It premieres Sunday, July 13.
— Alicia Rancilio
— What's in the works for EA Sports' College Football 26? Dozens of new mascots! We're talking Oregon State's Benny the Beaver, Akron's Zippy the Kangaroo and the already legendary Pop-Tarts Mascot. Real-life coaches like Notre Dame's Marcus Freeman and Georgia's Kirby Smart are joining the fun. And your new cover models are wide receivers Ryan Williams of Alabama and Jeremiah Smith of Ohio State. EA drew a huge audience last year when it returned to the NCAA gridiron after a decade-long hiatus, and this season promises 2,800 new plays and unique coaching schemes to go along with slicker graphics and tighter gameplay. The real season is still more than a month away, but you can begin your tailgate party Thursday on PlayStation 5 and Xbox X/S.
— It has been nearly 50 years since Atari ruled the arcades, but the brand has resurfaced recently with modernized versions of classics like Asteroids, Breakout and Berzerk. Missile Command Delta is something different, redefining the original shoot-em-up as a turn-based tactical challenge. It takes place in an abandoned bunker with plenty of locked rooms and other puzzles, so there's more to do than just protecting your bases — there's a whole mystery to solve. Maybe it involves Pong? Save the world all over again Tuesday on PlayStation 5, Xbox X/S, Switch and PC.

Oasis sends fans 'Supersonic' as long-awaited reunion tour starts in Cardiff
CARDIFF, Wales (AP) -- Oasis ended a 16-year hiatus on Friday with a punchy, powerful trip through one of Britpop's greatest songbooks, kicking off a reunion tour in Cardiff, Wales to a crowd ecstatic for the band's 1990s hits. And was there brotherly love between the famously feuding Gallagher siblings? Definitely maybe. Liam's swagger is undimmed Fans traveled to the Welsh capital from around the world for a show that many thought would never happen. Guitarist-songwriter Noel Gallagher and his singer brother Liam, the heart of Oasis, had not performed together since their acrimonious split in 2009. One fan banner summed it up: "The great wait is over." After a montage of headlines about the sparring siblings was capped with the words "the guns have fallen silent," Oasis appeared on stage to a deafening roar, opening with the apt "Hello" and its refrain of "it's good to be back." The brothers had a brief hand-in-hand moment but largely kept their distance onstage. Noel, 58, focused on his guitar while a parka-clad Liam, 52, snarled into the microphone with a swagger that has not dimmed in the 31 years since the band released its first album, "Definitely Maybe." A crowd of more than 60,000 in the Principality Stadium was treated to a well-paced two-hour set that drew heavily on the first album and its 1995 followup, "(What's the Story) Morning Glory," alongside a smattering of later tracks and fan-favorite B-sides. Songs like "Supersonic," "Roll With It" and "Rock 'n' Roll Star" sounded as thunderous as ever and sparked mass sing-alongs. "Put your arms over each other like you love each other," a tambourine-clutching Liam exhorted the crowd before launching into "Cigarettes and Alcohol." There was poignancy on "Live Forever" when an image of Liverpool Football Club player Diogo Jota, who was killed in a car crash on Thursday, was projected above the band. Noel took his turn on lead vocals for several songs, including the touching "Half the World Away," and the show ended with encores featuring some of Oasis' most enduring tracks: "Don't Look Back in Anger," "Wonderwall" and "Champagne Supernova." The brothers shared a half-hug as they ended the final song. Multicolored, sometimes faintly psychedelic, projections formed the main technological accoutrement to a show where the focus was squarely on the songs. There was little banter, though Liam paused between songs to check the audience was having a good time. "Was it worth the 40,000 pounds you paid for the ticket?" he quipped at one point, referring to the scramble for seats that saw some fans pay hundreds to see a show. From the roar of response, it was. "Absolutely incredible -- best gig I've ever been to in my life," said Nathan Price-Gearey as fans poured out of the stadium. "It was massive," said Millie Anderson, another satisfied concertgoer. "When they played 'Stand by Me,' I started sobbing my eyes out." 'Very, very special' The show in Cardiff kicked off a 19-date Live '25 tour in the U.K. and Ireland. Then come stops in North America, South America, Asia and Australia, ending in Sao Paulo on Nov. 23. The streets around the stadium filled before the concert with fans who gathered in groups to sing along to the band's hits and snapped up Oasis-branded bucket hats at 35 pounds ($48) each. "It's very, very special -- emotional," said 44-year-old Rob Maule from Edinburgh, Scotland, who came with three childhood friends. "For us, it's a generational thing. It's a chapter of our lives. And then the second generation, as people are taking their kids. It's really special." Vicki Moynehan came from Dorchester, in southwest England. She said her life has changed since she bought her ticket almost a year ago. "Seven months pregnant -- ain't gonna stop me," she said. Sing-along rock choruses Founded in the working-class streets of Manchester, England, in 1991, Oasis was one of the dominant British acts of the 1990s, releasing eight U.K. No. 1 albums. The band's sound was fueled by sing-along rock choruses and the combustible chemistry between guitarist-songwriter Noel Gallagher -- a Beatles and glam rock-loving musician with a knack for memorable tunes -- and younger brother Liam. Then and since, the brothers have often traded barbs -- onstage, in the studio and in interviews. Liam once called Noel "tofu boy," while Noel branded his brother "the angriest man you'll ever meet. He's like a man with a fork in a world of soup." After a backstage bust up at a concert in France in 2009, they long resisted pressure to reunite, even with the promise of a multimillion-dollar payday. Now they have agreed on a tour that sees them joined by former Oasis members Paul "Bonehead" Arthurs and Gem Archer on guitar, bassist Andy Bell and drummer Joey Waronker. 'An absolute unbelievable blast' The announcement of the U.K. tour in August sparked a ticket-buying frenzy, complete with error messages, hourslong online queues, dashed hopes and anger at prices that surged at the last minute. The ticketing troubles sparked questions in the U.K. Parliament and an investigation by Britain's competition regulator. It has threatened Ticketmaster -- which sold around 900,000 Oasis tickets -- with legal action. No plans have been announced for Oasis to record any new music, and the tour is being presented as a one-off. Music writer John Aizlewood said that it's an opportunity for Oasis to "tend the legacy" of the band, and remind people of the power of the Oasis brand. "There should be a sense of huge joy and life affirmation about these shows. And I think if they can just play it right, then that can be a massive burnishing of their legacy," he said. "(There is) this enduring love for Oasis -- and love means money." Fans were determined to enjoy the moment.

FILE - Julian McMahon arrives at the 21st annual Critics' Choice Awards at the Barker Hangar on Sunday, Jan. 17, 2016, in Santa Monica, Calif. (Photo by Jordan Strauss/Invision/AP, File) Julian McMahon, an Australia-born actor who performed in two 'Fantastic Four' films and appeared in TV shows such as 'Charmed," 'Nip/Tuck' and 'Profiler,' has died, his wife said in a statement.

With soulful understanding.' © Copyright 2025 The Associated Press. All rights reserved. This material may not be published, broadcast, rewritten or redistributed without permission.
