MGM+ opens Power Book III and takes us to the streets of New York with The Westies in its July highlights. Get ready for more new additions to the expanding library of content.
It’s time for our monthly check-in with MGM+ to see what’s arriving in July 2026. With June’s heatwave now firmly behind us, the streamer is rolling out a fresh selection of titles designed to keep viewers entertained through those warm mid-summer nights. And there’s plenty worth tuning in for.
This month’s lineup features a mix of new releases alongside a strong wave of additions to its back catalog, making MGM+ our top destination as we move deeper into the third quarter of 2026. From hidden gems to headline releases, July is shaping up to offer something for every kind of viewer. So, get ready to update your watchlist as we take a closer look at what’s coming to MGM+ this month.
NEW RELEASES
After unleashing new episodes of Power Book III: Raising Kanan, you might expect MGM+ to ease off the big releases—but you’d be wrong. Far from slowing down, the streamer’s carefully curated July lineup arrives like a burst of midsummer heat, packed with fresh content designed to keep viewers firmly on the sofa.
This month continues with the season finale of Power Book III: Raising Kanan S5, but the real headline is an expansion of its crime-focused slate. If you’re after tense, late-night viewing, the all-new drama The Westies is ready to deliver. Set against the gritty backdrop of 1980s New York, it explores the rise of the city’s infamous Irish-American crime organization, bringing a darker, more atmospheric edge to the platform’s summer offerings.
NEW ADDITIONS TO THE MGM+ LIBRARY
But thankfully, the fun doesn’t stop there. MGM+ is rolling out a packed slate of new additions throughout the month, and it’s filled with Hollywood heavyweights. Kicking things off is Ryan Gosling’s Project Hail Mary, followed later in the month by The Nice Guys, a return to The Addams Family, and the classic chaos of The Pink Panther.
If you’re already gearing up for the arrival of the next James Bond era—whoever ultimately steps into the role—MGM+ also has you covered. Throughout July, films from both the Pierce Brosnan and Daniel Craig eras remain available on the platform, giving viewers the chance to revisit GoldenEye, Tomorrow Never Dies, and Skyfall before the next chapter begins. So grab the snacks, clear the schedule, and settle in—July on MGM+ is shaping up to be a month packed with blockbuster entertainment.
WEEKLY ORIGINALS
Power Book III: Raising Kainan S5
In Season 5, Kanan’s true ruthlessness takes shape. He knows exactly who he is and who he must become to defeat his enemies. As his relationship with Raq reaches a point of no return, and any chance of reconciliation becomes a distant memory, war is inevitable. Kanan solidifies his place in the Queens drug game alongside Breeze, the Southside legend, and their alliance sets the stage for a reckoning that will ripple through every player in this dangerous business.
Launch Date: 13th June, Final episode 2nd July
The Westies
The Westies is a gritty and kinetic crime drama centering on New York City’s infamously violent Irish gang of the same name. The series is set in the early 1980s when the construction of the Jacob Javits Convention Center on the Westies’ home turf promises a financial windfall. Despite being outnumbered by the Five Families of the Italian Mafia, the Westies’ legendary brutality have given them the leverage necessary to share the spoils. But internal conflict between the younger generation and the old-school leadership threatens to set a match to this powder keg.
Launch Date: 12th July, with new episodes released weekly

In our glowing FIVE-STAR REVIEW, our reviewer Carl Roberts said: “There are no words that I can say that will adequately convey what lies in store for the audience. This isn’t some mindless spectacle that takes over the big screen with its CGI, big-budget names, and audience-pleasing script. This is a well-constructed project that has been thoughtfully planned, effectively executed, and skillfully delivered. Throughout the film, you can see the dedication, heart, and love that have gone into it. Drew Goddard brings Andy Weir’s novel to life in an epic adaptation that truly showcases what the big screen is all about. This film delivers a larger-than-life experience, offering dazzling visuals and superior entertainment.” Read our full review here.
MUST RE-WATCH ORIGINALS
Robin Hood
Robin Hood brings a modern energy to the classic tale of the roguish outlaw hero who stole from the rich and gave to the poor, and the epic love story between him and a courageous and daring Marian. Following the Norman invasion of England, Rob – a Saxon forester’s son – and Marian, the daughter of a Norman lord – fall in love and work together to fight for justice and freedom. As Rob rises as the leader of a band of rebel outlaws, Marian infiltrates the power at court, as both work together to thwart royal corruption and bring peace to the land.

REVIEW
We had an absolute blast with this phenomenal series. In my FIVE STAR REVIEW, I said: “Jonathan English’s Robin Hood is nothing short of sensational. The series delivers a refreshingly grounded adaptation of the legend, coupled with the trademark swashbuckling the story is famous for. The result is a glorious ten-episode rollercoaster ride that takes us beyond the myth and adds new layers to the man behind the hood. With its glorious cinematography, exceptional production value, winning performances from its leads, and seasoned brilliance of its legacy stars, the series is the definitive adaptation of the source material.
The series makes the most of its nearly 10-hour runtime by thoroughly developing each character within its lore and expanding the legends in rich detail. From Little John to Friar Tuck and the Sheriff of Nottingham to Will Gamewell (aka Will Scarlett), every member of the lore is explored and presented with energetic freshness-and the result is intoxicating.” Read my review here.
