“Love at

First Sight” (2023)

Love goes international with the new rom-com “Love at First Sight,” when it premieres Friday, Sept. 15, on Netflix. After missing her flight from New York to London, Hadley’s (Haley Lu Richardson, “The White Lotus”) plans are put on hold while she finds a new flight. When a chance encounter in the airport with Oliver (Ben Hardy, “Bohemian Rhapsody,” 2018) leads to a long night on a plane together that passes in the blink of an eye, the pair are left wondering if love at first sight can really happen. When the pair are separated in the chaos of Heathrow Airport, they’ll have to try everything they can to make their way back to each other. Based on the novel “The Statistical Probability of Love at First Sight” by Jennifer E. Smith, “Love at First Sight” is directed by Vanessa Caswill (“Thirteen”) with a screenplay by Katie Lovejoy (“To All the Boys: Always and Forever,” 2021). Narrated by Jameela Jamil (“The Good Place”), the film’s cast is rounded out by Dexter Fletcher (“Ghosted,” 2023), Rob Delaney (“Catastrophe”), Jessica Ransom (“Doc Martin”), Tom Taylor (“The Dark Tower,” 2017), Tracy Wiles (“The Catch”), Ibinabo Jack (“Vera”) and Anastasia Zabarchuk (“Silo”).

“Wrestlers”

- Season 1

Follow along with a mission to preserve a legacy in the new docuseries “Wrestlers,” premiering Wednesday, Sept. 13, on Netflix. Run by acclaimed wrestler Al Snow, who clings to an old school wrestling philosophy with a heavy emphasis on storytelling, Ohio Valley Wrestling of Louisville, Kentucky, is a regional wrestling gym whose alumni include Brock Lesnar, The Miz, John Cena, Dave Bautista and Randy Orton. But despite its A-list alumni and the love of some diehard fans, the gym is struggling to stay relevant and keep its doors open. Forced to sell a majority stake to a group of local businessmen — including Matt Jones, the most popular radio personality in the state of Kentucky — the gym’s new infusion of much-needed cash hasn’t been enough to get the gym back up and running in the black. With the new ownership giving Al the summer to turn things back around, the series chronicles his efforts, along with the help of his band of aspiring wrestlers, as they balance their personal struggles and ambitions while coming together to save the historic gym. The series comes from director Greg Whiteley (“Last Chance U”) and BBC Studios Los Angeles.

“A Million Miles Away” (2023)

Based on the book “Reaching for the Stars: The Inspiring Story of a Migrant Farmworker Turned Astronaut” by NASA flight engineer José Hernández, the inspiring new drama film “A Million Miles Away” premieres Friday, Sept. 15, on Prime Video. Inspired by Hernández’s real-life story, the film follows him (portrayed in the film by Michael Pena, “Ant-Man,” 2015) and his devoted family of proud migrant farm workers on a journey from a rural village in Michoacán, Mexico, to the fields of the San Joaquin Valley, California, to more than 200 miles above the Earth in the International Space Station. “With the unwavering support of his hard-working parents, relatives and teachers, José’s unrelenting drive and determination culminates in the opportunity to achieve his seemingly impossible goal” (per Prime Video). Directed by Alejandra Márquez Abella (“Northern Skies Over Empty Space,” 2022), the film features a screenplay by Abella, Bettina Gilois (“McFarland, USA,” 2015) and Hernán Jiménez (“Love Hard,” 2021). Rosa Salazar (“Alita: Battle Angel,” 2019), Garret Dillahunt (“Raising Hope”), Eric Johnson (“The Knick”), Michelle Krusiec (“Hawaii Five-0”), Veronica Falcón (“Queen of the South”), Sarayu Blue (“I Feel Bad”), Julio Cesar Cedillo (“Cowboys & Aliens,” 2011) and Ashley Ciarra (“Chupa,” 2023).

“Kelce” (2023)

Prime Video’s newest sports documentary turns to the NFL when “Kelce” premieres Tuesday, Sept. 12, on the Amazon streamer. Heralded as “intimate and emotional” by Prime Video, “Kelce” chronicles the journey of Philadelphia Eagles team captain and all-pro center Jason Kelce through the 2022-23 season. Beginning with Jason Kelce facing down one of the toughest decisions a professional athlete has to face — when to hang it all up and retire — his choice to return to the National Football League for a 12th season sent him down what became a remarkable path. Along the way, Kelce’s season is highlighted by the birth of his third daughter; the debut of his hit podcast “New Heights,” co-hosted with his brother, Kansas City Chiefs all-pro tight end Travis Kelce; and a history-making Super Bowl appearance that placed the entire Kelce family at the center of the sports world. Directed by Don Argott (“Believer,” 2018), “Kelce” is produced by Argott, Sheena M. Joyce (“Slugfest”) and Larry Platt (“WeTown,” 2018).

Joining Guardians of the Galaxy franchise director and writer James Gunn, alongside stars including Chris Pratt (“Parks and Recreation”) and Zoe Saldana (“Avatar,” 2009), this newest installment of “Marvel Studios’ Assembled” dives into how the final film of this intergalactic trilogy “was conceived, shaped and delivered to the world” (per Disney+). In the film, Peter Quill (Pratt) and the Guardians head to their new headquarters, located on the planet Knowhere. All is peaceful for the ragtag group of adventurers until they are attacked by a Sovereign warrior created by high priestess Ayesha (Elizabeth Debicki, “The Great Gatsby,” 2013), who seeks revenge after the Guardians stole from her. When Rocket (Bradley Cooper, “Nightmare Alley,” 2021) is critically wounded, the team must embark on a dangerous mission to find his creator – a mad scientist working at a company called Orgocorp, the only person with access to Rocket’s kill switch and the override codes necessary to save the smart-talking raccoon’s life. In the meantime, the rest of the crew must risk their own lives.
