‘El Camino: A Breaking Bad Movie’
Six years after the AMC series came to a close, Breaking Bad is returning to TV screens with the premiere of El Camino: A Breaking Bad Movie.
Written and directed by Vince Gilligan, creator of the original series, El Camino picks up after the events of the Breaking Bad series finale, and finds Jesse — played by Aaron Paul — seeking the help of his friends Skinny Pete and Badger to try and escape from Albuquerque, New Mexico.
El Camino: A Breaking Bad Movie is set to premiere on Friday, Oct. 11.
‘Fractured’
Netflix is stocking a new thriller in its library on Friday with the debut of Fractured.
The film, which had its world premiere at Fantastic Fest in September, tells the story of a husband Ray, wife Joanne, and daughter Peri whose weekend holiday comes to a terrifying end when they pull into a rest stop on the drive home and Peri is hurt in an accident. After Peri is admitted to the hospital for treatment, Ray wakes up after passing out from exhaustion only to discover that his wife and child, along with all records of them, have disappeared. Ray sets out on a desperate mission to find his family and discover the truth of what happened to them, uncovering the sinister motives of the hospital staff along the way.
Directed by Brad Anderson, the film stars Sam Worthington, Lily Rabe, Stephen Tobolowsky, Adjoa Andoh, and Lucy Capri.
‘Haunted: Season 2’
Getting ready for some spine-tingling scares as real people recount their unsettling run-ins with all things paranormal in the second season of Netflix original series Haunted.
From the executive producers of The Purge franchise and Lore, Haunted gives a chilling glimpse into the first-person accounts from people who have witnessed horrifying, peculiar, extraordinary supernatural events and other unexplained phenomenon that continue to haunt them.
The series, which first premiered in October of last year, features dramatic re-enactments as people recount their terrifying run-ins.
‘Insatiable: Season 2’
One of Netflix’s most controversial series is returning for its second season. On Friday, the Debby Ryan-starring Netflix original Insatiable will premiere its sophomore run.
Originally debuting on Netflix in August of 2018, the series follows a teen bullied for her size who undergoes a dramatic weight loss after she is punched in face and has her jaw wired shut. After returning to school, she sets out on a mission of revenge.
Season 2 will see Patty dealing with her haunted past, her struggle to be “good,” and inner demons. Meanwhile, Bob helps her cover up Christian’s murder, but his loyalties will be tested.
During its freshman season, Insatiable drew backlash from viewers, with some accusing it of body-shaming, and critics claiming that it was “one of the cruelest and most poorly crafted shows.” Some even called for the series’ cancellation, stating that it “perpetuates not only the toxicity of diet culture, but the objectification of women’s bodies.”
‘YooHoo to the Rescue: Season 2’
On Friday, Netflix is traveling back to the magical land of YooTopia, where five cuddly pals travel around the world and use teamwork and special gadgets to help other animals and trouble and make more friends, in the second season premiere of YooHoo to the Rescue.
In the second season, YooHoo and his can-do crew will travel the globe to help animals in need in a series of magical missions.
Co-produced by Aurora World and Mondo TV, the series is the third TV series based on the YooHoo & Friends franchise, and will serve as the reboot of the franchise. The series marked the first Netflix Original Series from South Korea.
