Everything streaming on Peacock in May 2022: 'Firestarter,' 'Resident Evil,' 'Young Rock' & more

The month of May looks to be a scary one.

By Trent Moore
Firestarter

It might be kicking off the dog days of summer, but May 2022 is also packing plenty of chills with a ton of great horror content landing on Peacock for the month.

The biggest release hitting the streaming service is the new version of Stephen King’s classic horror tale Firestarter, about a young girl with superhuman abilities to… well… start fires. The film stars Zac Efron, Ryan Kiera Armstrong, Kurtwood Smith and Sydney Lemmon. The horror pic hits Peacock and opens wide in theaters on May 13.

If you’re looking for something a bit more undead and video game-inspired, the original six-film run of Resident Evil films are also coming to Peacock to kick off the month . The list includes Resident Evil, Resident Evil: Apocalypse, Resident Evil: Extinction, Resident Evil: Afterlife, Resident Evil: Retribution and Resident Evil: The Final Chapter. Want a film series a bit more sparkly in the fantasy vein? The Twilight Saga also drops on May 1.

Digging a bit deeper, the streamer will also have new episodes of ongoing NBC shows like The Endgame, The Blacklist, Young Rock and more. There’s also plenty of sports if you’re keen on the sportball, including some USFL football games and Premier League soccer. On the movie side, there’s the Nic Cage classic Con Air, Creepshow, Keanu Reeves’ Constantine, Stephen King’s Dreamcatcher, the first two Shrek films and Scott Pilgrim vs. the World.
