The new films out on Now, Amazon Prime and Netflix this weekend

Another weekend is finally here and it looks set to be another scorcher.

That means you'll probably be wanting to spend as much time as possible soaking up the sun.

Or you may be getting your football fix with plenty of action from the Euros.

But when it's time to chill at home - or if you're not an avid football fan - you may find yourself looking for something to watch on the small screen to keep you entertained.

If you are in search of some inspiration when it comes to watch on your favourite streaming service, worry not as there are plenty more to get stuck into this week.
