Everything Coming To Streaming This December

Well, the year is pretty much over. But hey, if the warp-speed of time is getting you down, do not fear — at least December is jam-packed with new titles coming to Netflix, Stan, Amazon Prime Video, SBS On Demand, Disney+, AppleTV, and Foxtel.

Yep, 2019 might have been done in a blink of an eye, but that doesn’t mean that the streaming wars are going to slow down any time soon.

December is Awards Season in the world of entertainment, which means we’ll be getting a veritable shedload of new content. There truly is something for everyone this December, from a high-budgeted epic fantasy series, to acclaimed films from world-famous directors.

It’s all happening.

The Witcher

The few months since the end of Game of Thrones has seen every streaming service under the sun try to find a fantasy epic that will fill the fantasy epic-shaped hole in viewers’ hearts.

Netflix’s stab at that market is The Witcher, a gorgeous-looking epic based on the popular franchise of the same name. Starring Henry Cavill as the beloved Geralt of Rivia, it’s a complex and stirring look at a world ravaged by internal politics and beasties of every shape and size.

Looks like it could be very, very big.

Crawl

Alexandre Aja’s Crawl has a remarkably elegant plot: what if you were trapped in a flooded house with a crocodile? But from those bare beginnings, the director — well-known for his brutal and gruesome debut, High Tension — spins something magical. It’s unpleasant, and harsh, and difficult viewing, but it never resorts to mere cheap thrills. Instead, this is modern blockbusting filmmaking at its most smart and witty — a survival thriller for the ages.

6 Underground

We don’t give Michael Bay enough credit. The director behind the Bad Boys series, the Transformers franchise and underrated masterpiece Pain and Gain is an American visionary, one of the true auteurs working in Hollywood.

For that reason, the news of any new Bay project should be cause for celebration — particularly when it sees him team up with one of contemporary cinema’s most subversive leading men, Ryan Reynolds.

The plot for 6 Underground is pretty, uh, vague, but safe to say it involves a lot of running around and shooting at things. Sounds perfect to me.

Carol

You can keep your regular old Christmas movies — as far as I’m concerned, Todd Haynes’ Carol is the only film worth watching this festive season. Based on a novel by Patricia Highsmith, Carol is a queer romance told with style, intelligence and a subversive heart. Anchored by two extraordinary lead performances, it’s one of the true masterpieces of the last decade. It’ll split your heart in two.

Where you can watch it: SBS On Demand

War of the Worlds

The festive season got you hating humanity? Then why not catch Steven Spielberg’s War of the Worlds, one of the most joyously miserable films from one of cinema’s most crowd-pleasing artists. Starring Tom Cruise as an everyman (I know, I know) who must contend with the horrors of a Martian invasion, this is a bleak, unrelenting masterpiece. It’ll haunt you.
