All the sci-fi TV and movies streaming in July 2021

By Trent Moore
Jungle Cruise from Disney Plus Press Kit

Summer is officially underway, which means it's a month of big ol' blockbusters across pretty much every streaming service as we head into the dog days of July. We have Marvel heroes, wild horror, animated fantasy adventures and more to fill out the calendar.

Netflix is rolling out its trilogy of Fear Street films one-per-week throughout July, so there will be new scares dropping every Friday. The OG streamer also has its new Masters of the Universe animated series from Kevin Smith, plus the big animated film finale to Guillermo del Toro's Trollhunters franchise with Rise of the Titans. Not to mention Resident Evil: Infinite Darkness' first season, and most of the Twilight film saga taking a bite out of the catalog.

Disney+ is also bringing its summer blockbuster game, with the Premier Access dual theatrical/streaming debuts of both Marvel's Black Widow and the Disney family adventure film Jungle Cruise. Both promise to be two of the summer's biggest movies, and they'll both be available on Disney+ (for an additional fee, of course) in addition to theaters. HBO Max also has a big one this month as part of its hybrid release strategy, with Space Jam: A New Legacy anchoring the month as a genre tentpole.

Digging deeper, Hulu has the premiere of American Horror Stories; Peacock has The Boss Baby: Family Business on a dual streaming/theatrical premiere; Amazon Prime has Chris Pratt's The Tomorrow War going straight to streaming; and Shudder has plenty of new horror goodies to scare us a bit more once we've finished up with Fear Street on Netflix.

Here's the full rundown of all the sci-fi, fantasy and horror hitting the major services in July.

NETFLIX

HIGHLIGHTS

Fear Street (Film Trilogy): Originally destined for theaters, this horror trilogy will roll out over the month of July. The stories go: In 1994, a group of teenagers discover the terrifying events that have haunted their town for generations may all be connected — and they may be the next targets. Based on R.L. Stine's best-selling horror series, Fear Street follows Shadyside's sinister history through a nightmare 300 years in the making.

Masters of the Universe: Kevin Smith is bringing He-Man back for a new set of adventures. The first five episodes of the animated revival finally arrives, riding a wave of intrigue and solid reviews.

Trollhunters: Rise of the Titans: Guillermo del Toro has quietly been building out an ambitious world of trolls, aliens and magic with his various Trollhunters shows and spinoffs. But now, this big ol' world is finally coming to an end — but it's wrapping up with a bang. The franchise finale film arrives this month.

HBO MAX

HIGHLIGHTS

Space Jam: A New Legacy: LeBron James tags in for Micheal Jordan in this decades-later sequel, which once again brings back the Looney Tunes for a basketball game to save their (or our?) world. The plot remains a bit of a nebulous mystery, but we know there will be monsters; a big basketball game with world-ending stakes; and likely a whole lot of silly, physical comedy to go around.

Wellington Paranormal: Season 1: The What We Do in the Shadows spinoff series is actually coming over to The CW, but it will be streaming on HBO Max. This spinoff focuses on the cops in the small town of Wellington as they try to deal with all kinds of supernatural and sci-fi shenanigans.

Batwoman: Season 2: The second season of The CW's Arrowverse series hits HBO Max this month, after introducing a brand new hero under the cowl following the abrupt departure of original star Ruby Rose after the end of Season 1. There have been a few bumps along the way, but Season 2 made for a wild ride through Gotham, with plenty more heroes and stories promised for the already in-the-works third season.

DISNEY PLUS

HIGHLIGHTS

Black Widow: We've waited, and we've waited, and we've waited — and Black Widow's solo movie is finally here. The prequel film starring Scarlett Johansson and a bevy of new MCU players from her old life was delayed just as the pandemic began, but now it's finally hitting theaters and streaming this month. Reviews have been great, and this could absolutely be the Marvel movie we've been waiting for to finally kick off the summer.

Jungle Cruise: Disney continues to leverage its theme park attractions on the big screen, and the latest endeavor is this Dwayne Johnson and Emily Blunt vehicle framed around the famous boat ride attraction. It's a period set adventure into the jungle, with a great cast and a big budget. Decent odds it could be the next Pirates of the Caribbean.

Loki: It ain't over yet! The final two episodes of the acclaimed MCU sci-fi series arrive in July, and here's hoping they bring plenty of answers for what's happening — and what's next — for our favorite Variant and the rest of the TVA. We just hope Mobius finally gets that jet ski ride.

HULU

HIGHLIGHTS

American Horror Stories: The long-running anthology series is getting a fresh expansion with this new series, which looks to tell even more contained little horror stories. Things kick off with the two-episode limited series premiere on FX on Hulu.

Bill and Ted Face the Music: If you missed the long-awaited Bill and Ted sequel during the chaos of 2020, there's good news — it's finally hitting Hulu proper this month. The film was an absolute blast, and a true love letter to these characters, this franchise, and all the history and music that made it so fun.

Raiders! The Story of the Greatest Fan Film Ever Made: While we patiently wait for a new Indiana Jones sequel, maybe this documentary can make things a bit easier. The 2015 film follows a group of friends as they set out to make a fan film of Raiders of the Lost Ark.

HIGHLIGHTS

The Tomorrow War: One of the biggest summer sci-fi flicks is right here on Prime Video. The film stars Chris Pratt and was originally aimed as a theatrical tentpole before the pandemic blew up the box office last year. Amazon picked up the pieces, and now the buzzed-about film is a streaming exclusive. Here's hoping it lives up to the hype.

PARAMOUNT PLUS

The relaunched service hasn't release a full rundown of exactly what will be added in July 2021, but is home to a boatload of movies being added to the catalog — plus all the new, original Star Trek stuff (with more shows and seasons on the way). One biggie rolling out this month? The second season of hit horror series EVIL, which moved over from the CBS network this year.


APPLE TV+

The service hasn't release a full rundown of what will be added in July 2021 (though Ted Lasso's new season is there, even if it's not genre it is great). But the service remains home to some prestige genre fare like For All Mankind and SEE, with more shows and projects on the way throughout the summer.
