A sequel to the 2020 action flick “Extraction,” this newest installment sees black market mercenary Tyler Rake (Hemsworth) tasked with another deadly mission after barely making it out of the events of the first film alive Now, Rake and his team will risk it all once again to rescue the battered family of a ruthless Georgian gangster from the prison where they are being held.

“Amy Schumer: Emergency Contact”
Amy Schumer is coming in hot and ready to leave it all on the stage in her new stand-up comedy special “Amy Schumer: Emergency Contact,” premiering on Netflix Tuesday, June 13. Returning for her third special with Netflix — after “The Leather Special” in 2017 and “Growing” in 2019 — Schumer delivers more hilariously relatable and uncensored commentary about her life as she touches on everything from lasering her face, postpartum sex, her baby-naming disaster and chewable Viagra, to role-playing with her husband and secret insecurities No topic is too personal for this award-winning comedian, actor and writer Shot at the Orpheum Theatre in Los Angeles, “Emergency Contact” is directed by Schumer herself and executive produced by Marcus Raboy (“Patton Oswalt: We All Scream,” 2022).
“The Full Monty”
Lay it all on the line with the highly anticipated limited series reboot of “The Full Monty” when it premieres on Hulu Wednesday, June 14. The original hit film from 1997 follows a group of six steelworkers who, desperate for cash, form a male striptease group Now, this revival catches back up with the original cast 25 years on, as the Sheffield, U.K., residents settle into a new way of living. Now worlds away from their entertainment pasts, Gary “Gaz” Schofield (Robert Carlyle, “Trainspotting,” 1996) is navigating relationships with his police officer son, Nathan (Wim Snape, “The Beaker Girls”), and rebellious teenage daughter, Destiny (Talitha Wing, “Wolfe”), while Dave (Mark Addy, “Game of Thrones”) and his wife, Jean (Lesley Sharp, “Afterlife”), work at the same school and are dealing with some big issues, both in and out of the classroom. Meanwhile, Lomper (Steve Huison, “Coronation Street”) and his husband, Dennis (Paul Clayton, “The Crown”), are trying to keep their dwindling, cheekily named Big Baps café afloat; Horse (Paul Barber, “Only Fools and Horses”) is struggling to make ends meet amidst a crumbling welfare system; and Gerald (Tom Wilkinson, “Belgravia”) is keeping on with his job at a construction firm. Also seeing Hugo Speer (“The Musketeers”) return as Guy, the series cast is rounded out by Miles Jupp (“Why Didn’t They Ask Evans?”), Tupele Dorgu (“Coronation Street”), Phillip Rhys Chaudhary (“24”), Aiden Cook (“All Creatures Great and Small”) John Hollingsworth (“1917,” 2019), Lisa Allen (“Emmerdale Farm”), Joe Standerline (“Safe”) and new talent Jaxon Valentine

“Stan Lee” (2023)
The life and legacy of one of the most iconic names in the history of comics is celebrated in the new documentary “Stan Lee,” premiering on Disney+ Friday, June 16. Along with his creative partner, Jack Kirby, Lee created some of Marvel’s most famous and lasting superheroes — including the Fantastic Four, The Avengers, Spider-Man, the X-Men and many more — and pushed the boundaries of what superhero characters could be. The film takes a look back at Lee’s influence on comic books and pop culture over his impressive career, as he worked his way from an assistant at Pulp Magazine’s Timely Comics division (which would later become Marvel Comics) to the legendary personality beloved by fans the world over. Using personal archive material, the film explores Lee’s life, career and legacy in his own words From director David Gelb (“Chef’s Table”), the film is executive produced by Jamie McBriety (“Sketchbook”) and Sarah Regan (“Free Solo,” 2018) and produced by Gelb, Brian McGinn (“Chef’s Table”) and Jason Sterman (“Obi-Wan Kenobi: A Jedi’s Return,” 2022).
“The Grand Tour: Eurocrash” - Season 5B
Former “Top Gear” hosts James May, Jeremy Clarkson and Richard Hammond return to Prime Video screens when Season 5 of “The Grand Tour” continues Friday, June 16, with its newest installment, titled “Eurocrash.” James, Richard and Jeremy seem to have a problem: every country they want to visit is either a trouble hot spot or has banned them from entering. So instead, they head to central Europe on a road trip nobody has ever thought of, in cars nobody would ever dream of using. Heading out on an “epic 1,400-mile journey in an outrageous Japanese Al Capone gangster car, a pickup that thinks it’s a convertible, and a 75-year-old American “micro mini” (per Prime Video), the boys travel from Gdansk in Poland through Slovakia and Hungary before reaching their final destination at Slovenia’s stunning Lake Bled. Along the way, they’ll wreak havoc, explore some historic and fascinating places, test out some unbelievable cars, and meet up with a famous Formula 1 champion.
“Medellin” (2023)
Directed by the famous French actor and director Franck Gastambide (“Validé”) and based on his original idea, the 2023 action comedy “Medellín” is now available to stream on Prime Video. The film follows a young content creator and Youtuber who is fascinated by none other than notorious, real-life drug lord Pablo Escobar, as he embarks on an unusual adventure, flying to the city of Medellín, in Colombia, to walk in Escobar’s footsteps When the young man is kidnapped for ransom by a skilled and dangerous group of Narcos members, it’s up to his big brother – Reda, played by star Ramzy Bedia (“Don’t Die Too Hard!,” 2001) – to unravel a crazy (and equally dangerous) master plan of his own: assemble a team of underdogs and prepare to raid the Narcos’ Colombian headquarters. There, Reda will execute the most important step: kidnapping the cartel leader’s son to be held hostage, only returned in exchange for his brother. Nonstop from start to finish, the film also stars Anouar Toubali (“Taxi 5,” 2018); Essined Aponte (“S.W.A.T.”); Raymond Cruz (“Training Day,” 2001); Ariel Sierra (“Narcos”); Mike Tyson (“The Hangover,” 2009); and Gastambide himself, as “Stan.”
