Dive into Determination: "NYAD"
Streaming Date: Nov. 3
Capturing the spirit of champions, NYAD is swimming what Free Solo was to rock climbing. Diana Nyad's saga isn't just about athletics but resilience and audacity. Decades after her marathon swimming retirement, her dream to conquer the 110-mile swim from Cuba to Florida without the security of a shark cage is awe-inspiring.
Annette Bening encapsulates Diana Nyad's spirit, while Jodie Foster lends her charm as Nyad's confidant and mentor, Bonnie Stoll. Under the careful gaze of Oscar-hoisted filmmakers Elizabeth Chai Vasarhelyi and Jimmy Chin, NYAD promises an immersive journey of human grit.
Edge-of-the-Seat Thriller: "The Killer"

A David Fincher masterpiece, The Killer, after a short theater spell, is hitting Netflix. Based on Matz's gripping French graphic novel, this electrifying thriller shadows a lone assassin caught in a web of deceit and inner turmoil.
Michael Fassbender leads the charge, complemented by talents like Tilda Swinton. With Fincher's rich legacy of crafting chilling tales like Gone Girl and Seven, The Killer is set to be another feather in his illustrious cap.
Celebrating Unsung Heroes: "Rustin"
Streaming Date: Nov. 17
Bayard Rustin, the orchestrator behind the landmark 1963 March on Washington, finally gets his cinematic tribute. Directed by the celebrated George C. Wolfe, Rustin unveils the life of a relentless crusader for civil rights, often overshadowed by history.
Colman Domingo, with his repertoire of stellar performances, dons the titular role, backed by an ensemble of luminaries like CCH Pounder, Jeffery Wright, and Chris Rock. Rustin stands as a testament to those unsung heroes who've shaped history.
A Whimsical Adventure: "Leo"

Leo offers a heartwarming escape into animation. Charting the journey of Leo, an elderly lizard, and his turtle sidekick in a quest for freedom and adventure, the film is brimming with hilarity and sentiment.
