SKY’S NEW 2021 LINE-UP

In 2021, Sky and NOW TV are bringing you more than 125 new Sky Originals, its biggest-ever line-up of TV and film.

For the first time ever, this year the broadcaster will be bringing you 30 new Sky Original films and 30 new Sky Original documentaries, on top of its great drama, comedy, entertainment and arts series. Movie fans are in for a treat as Sky Cinema becomes the home of Sky Original film with at least two new original films every month, and this is set to rise to one a week from next year.

For 2021, there’s an exciting mix of British and American films featuring some of the biggest stars . With films for everyone to enjoy, there’s A Boy Called Christmas, the origin story of Father Christmas, re-imagined in Gil Keenan’s live action adaptation of Matt Haig’s best-selling novel, and family favourites such as Extinct and Monster Family 2. There are films inspired by true stories and real people with Save The Cinema, Creation Stories, Six Minutes to Midnight and The Glorias, action adventures with Jolt and SAS: Red Notice, comedies with The Comeback Trail and Breaking News In Yuba County and thrillers with Antebellum.

There’s good news for anyone wanting to get their teeth into high-end drama, too. After clinching the BAFTA for best mini-series for the last two years (Chernobyl and Patrick Melrose), there are four new series on their way from acclaimed TV writers Paul Abbott (Shameless, No Offence) with Wolfe, David Farr (The Night Manager) with The Midwich Cuckoos and Joe Barton (Giri/Haji, The Batman) with Extinction and Michael Winterbottom (Welcome to Sarajevo, Wonderland and 24 Hour Party People) with This Sceptred Isle.
