And that brings us to this.
Now, if you're looking for something new to watch
this weekend, we're going to help you out.
Ashley Dvorkin joins us now live from Hollywood.
And Ashley, there's a lot of stuff coming out this weekend.
Some YouTube filmmakers now you have from obsessions
and backrooms, and we're just
hearing so much about these young filmmakers
that are putting their work out there.
So now here we go to what is new in theaters this week.
Now, it's not Thanksgiving yet,
but we're already talking Christmas movies.
Ebenezer, this is also Johnny Depp's first
big Hollywood studio film in eight years.
So Johnny Depp plays Ebenezer Scrooge
in a retelling of A Christmas Carol.
This is by Ty West.
He's very much known for his horror movies,
and I will say this is PG-13, but it does
have some jump scares in there.
It's scary.
It's definitely leaning into the gothic supernatural side of the tale.
Now, the ghosts of past, present, future visit him.
We also have great co-stars in this.
So we have Andrea Riseborough, Rupert Grint,
Tramell Tillman, and Ian McKellen.
So that is one option that is in theaters this week.
Now we have an...
action thriller, a heist thriller with how to rob a bank.
And that's Nicholas Holt,
Pete Davidson, Zoe Kravitz, John C. Reilly.
You see there, this is R-rated. This is from
David Leach. David Leach of 87 North,
very much known for their stunt work.
Now, he was also the director of The Fall Guy and of Bullet Train.
And he was the co-creator of John Wick.
So just give me a little action background there.
This is about some Robin Hood bank robbers.
And most of the action takes place where they're sharing
their planning.
They're very social media savvy.
They've gone viral.
And then you have a software engineer, an FBI agent on their trail.
So now we go to the real horror movie,
R-rated gothic horror with Maika Monroe.
Maika Monroe, as you see there, you may know her from Longlegs.
She also has a great resume in horror.
Now, this is book to screen.
Victorian Psycho, and this is about a governess at a remote manor
where strange occurrences take increasingly twisted turns.
And I'm a horror movie fan.
This one is very twisted, so it was new.
I think horror fans are going to like this one.
All right, let's go to streaming.
We've got Netflix has Heartland with Jessica Chastain
as a singer who comes out of seclusion
to investigate the disappearance of her missing niece.
This is really good timing because we have the CMA Awards next week,
Cue that country music if you're in the mood.
That is on streaming now.
Apple TV ads Being Human.
That's about disability rights activist Judy Heumann,
who in 1977 led a historic 26-day sit-in leading
to the signing of Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act.
That is on Apple TV.
Also look for this during awards season, this movie.
So now we also have heist thriller on Apple TV,
another heist thriller series this time, 12-12-12.
That is starring and executive produced by Anthony Mackie
and Jamie Dornan.
This is centered around a heist with 12 months of planning,
12 hours to do it, and 12 days to escape.
I watched this very quickly.
It is a great binge watch.
Also a great binge watch, which I did also see the whole thing.
Limited series, The Good Daughter, that is on Peacock.
Now, there you see it.
Rose Byrne, Megan Fahey lead the way.
This is book to screen.
Sisters who are also lawyers, they're working on a legal case,
which also brings about their past,
their painful past resurfaces as they work on this case.
And like I said, a great watch.
If you have time for both series, I recommend them, Tyler.
So is that your must watch this weekend?
One of the streaming or are you going to the movie theater?
I would say, I'm going to go with the streaming recs this week
because I'm usually the what to watch in theaters,
but I really had a good time with both of these.
I think that The Good Daughter is a great mystery
which unravels throughout the course of those six episodes.
Also, 12-12-12, very fast-paced in its format
and the way that it's set up.
So yes, I do recommend if you are looking for what to watch at home.
Tyler.
Ashley Dvorkin, I really appreciate you joining us live
from California this morning
to break all of this down for us.
