Top Picks
‘Ripley’ 🌟 — April 4
For those who love seeing their favorite books brought to life, “Ripley” is the next big thing. Based on Patricia Highsmith's Tom Ripley novels, “Ripley” follows Tom (Andrew Scott), a grifter in 1960s New York. He accepts a job that takes him to Italy to convince a wealthy man's son to come home. The job launches him into a world of fraud and murder.
I love the black-and-white noir style in this limited series and can’t wait to discover Italy’s hidden underworld.
‘Scoop’ 🎞️ — April 5
“Scoop” is a dramatization of true events about how the BBC obtained an interview with Prince Andrew and his friendship with Jeffrey Epstein. The film not only focuses on the interview itself but also on the behind-the-scenes happenings. Sam McAlister (Billie Piper) had to negotiate with Buckingham Palace to obtain the interview, and Emily Maitlis (Gillian Anderson) presented hard-to-argue evidence with forensics.
I love a good dramatization of real events, and this BBC interview was groundbreaking. With an incredible cast, “Scoop” is bound to be a fantastic watch.
‘What Jennifer Did’ 🎞️ — April 10
In 2010, a quiet Canadian town was shaken to its core when the Pan family was attacked at home, leaving Jennifer as the only survivor. The case took a quick turn as Jennifer became the suspect in a murder-for-hire plot against her parents. The documentary “What Jennifer Did” uses footage and testimonies from police investigations to unravel her web of lies.
After listening to a few different podcasts about the Pan case, I’m still obsessed with it! I can’t wait to see the investigators' breakdown.
‘Rebel Moon — Part 2: The Scargiver’ 🎞️ — April 19
After “Rebel Moon — Part One: A Child of Fire” ended with an epic betrayal, I’ve been antsy waiting for Part Two to premiere. Kora (Sofia Boutella) and the surviving members of the rebellion team up with the people of Veldt to prepare for the impending final battle with the Motherland. On the eve of battle, the warriors examine their reasons for rebelling against the Realm. “Rebel Moon — Part Two: The Scargiver” is the second installment of the saga directed by Zack Snyder.
‘Dead Boy Detectives’ 📺 — April 25
If you enjoyed “The Sandman” series, then you’ll want to watch this off-shoot, “Dead Boy Detectives.” Set in the same universe, two boys from different centuries meet in the afterlife and decide to stay on Earth. Clairvoyant Crystal (Kassius Nelson) and her friend Niko (Yuyu Kitamura) team up with the ghost boys to solve paranormal mysteries. With a love of paranormal and detective shows, I can’t wait for this cross-genre show.
