• Best new movie on Max: Juror #2

New movies to stream on Netflix

Netflix already added most of their Christmas movies last month, so December is a bit of a mixed bag. However, we’d recommend Carry-On.

Taron Egerton plays a young TSA agent who has to race against the clock to stop a mysterious traveler from transporting a dangerous package. Safe to say, it’ll be a nice add-on to your Die Hard viewings this year.

Here’s everything coming this month:

• Churchill at War – December 4
• The Only Girl in the Orchestra – December 4
• That Christmas – December 4
• Mary – December 6
• Maria – December 11
• The Kings of Tupelo: A Southern Crime Saga – December 11
• Makayla’s Voice: A Letter to the World – December 11
• No Good Deed – December 12
• Carry-On – December 13
• Disaster Holiday – December 13
• Julia’s Stepping Stones – December 18
• The Six Triple Eight – December 20
• Ferry 2 – December 20
• Umjolo: Day Ones – December 20

New to Max this month

Max doesn’t have much on offer this month, but there is a new movie from the legend that is Clint Eastwood, thanks to Juror #2’s addition.

Fans of the Western hero were incredibly confused when Juror #2 didn’t get a huge theatrical push, so if you weren’t able to catch it in theaters, you’re in luck. Oh, and there’s also Super/Man: The Christopher Reeve Story, but we don’t want to be blamed for making you cry on Christmas.

Here are the new movies on Max:

• Super/Man: The Christopher Reeve Story – December 7
• Nature of the Crime – December 10
• Juror #2 – December 20

What’s on Disney Plus in December 2024?

Disney Plus is mostly focused on adding older movies and TV shows this month (Star Wars: Skeleton Crew is their big new addition), but there is the new horror movie, Cuckoo, to watch.

If you missed it, Cuckoo is a wacky and truly creepy horror that stars Hunter Schafer and Dan Stevens. It’s about a teenager who’s forced to move with her family to a off-putting town where not everything is as it seems.

Here’s what’s heading your way if you’re a Disney customer:

• Blink – December 17
• Cuckoo – December 17

New movies to stream on Prime Video in December

Again, there’s not many new additions to Prime Video this month, but if you’re looking for something sexy and dramatic this Christmas, then there’s always Culpa Tuya, the sequel to the 2023 Spanish romance movie.

Here’s Prime Video’s selection this month:

• Jack In Time For Christmas – December 3
• Culpa Tuya – December 27

What’s new on Peacock

Peacock has the most Christmas flicks being added to the platform this month, but we’d recommend checking out James McAvoy’s horror movie, Speak No Evil.

You can check out our Speak No Evil review for full thoughts, but it’s a terrific adaptation of the truly brutal Danish movie. True, it’s not exactly festive, but it’ll definitely give you a fright.

Here’s every new movie on Peacock this month:

• The Christmas Quest – December 2
• Speak No Evil – December 6
• All I Need For Christmas – December 13
• Following Yonder Star – December 16
• Trading Up Christmas – December 20

New on Hulu in December

For something light and sweet, Hulu’s best offering this month is A Sudden Case of Christmas.

It’s the story of a couple who bring their daughter to her grandfather’s hotel in Italy with the task of telling her they’re separating. With Danny DeVito in this, you really can’t go wrong with some easy viewing.

Here’s everything else on Hulu this month:

• Storm Crashers – December 4
• A Deadly Threat to My Family – December 5
• A Sudden Case of Christmas – December 13
• Blink – December 17
• Cuckoo – December 17
• A Model Murder – December 19
• The Inheritance – December 20
• 200% Wolf – December 26

What’s on Apple TV+ this month?

Apple TV+‘s big get this month is Fly Me to the Moon, the romantic comedy starring Scarlett Johansson and Channing Tatum.

Fly Me to the Moon tells the story of the back-up plan of staging the moon landing before they knew it would work. It’s a perfect pick for a family viewing, so be sure to add this one to your watchlist.

• Fly Me to the Moon – December 6
• Eva the Owlet – December 13
