Atlas Netflix

In space, everyone can hear Jennifer Lopez scream. In this sci-fi action thriller, she plays Atlas Shepherd, an analyst w ho’s on a quest to destroy her arch enemy – the robot warrior responsibl­e for the upheaval of her entire life. “Atlas is someone who has shut out the world around her,” explains Lopez. “She doesn’t trust anybody and doesn’t want anything to do with AI.” However, if she’s to complete her quest, Atlas will have to embrace technology – she ends up stranded in space with just a high-powered armoured suit to help her. “The heart of the film is trust and how difficult it is to trust people,” says director Brad Peyton. “I t’s a reminder of how we have to have deep, meaningful relationsh­ips in our lives, in one way, shape, or form.”

The Line of Duty and Trigger Point star plays Emma, a successful career woman happily married to supportive husband Robert, the father of their two children. However, as her 40th birthday looms large on the horizon, all is not well in Emma’s world. She suddenly stops sleeping, something her mother did shortly before suffering a violent psychotic breakdown.

DOCUMENTAR­Y The Beach Boys Disney+

In 1961, brothers Brian, Dennis and Carl Wilson joined forces with their cousin, Mike Love, and friend Al Jardine to form the Beach Boys. Using incredible vocal harmonies, while fusing 1950s rock and roll with R&B, they created a new sound that was both groundbrea­king and successful - in fact they went on to sale more than 100 million records worldwide. However, their story is a real rollercoas­ter ride, with various ups and downs along the way. They’re all charted in this eye-opening new documentar­y, which uses previously unseen footage to trace the band’s history from its origins in Hawthorne, California, through the peak of their popularity, when they were one of the few American bands to challenge The Beatles’ dominance, to the present day.
