We round up everything coming to streaming services this week, including Netflix, Prime Video, Disney+, Apple TV, ThreeNow, Neon and TVNZ+.
Louis Theroux: Inside the Manosphere (Netflix, March 11)
In the wake of Adolescence, Louis Theroux is “back and beta than ever” as he launches his own investigation of the manosphere. Meeting such notorious, anti-feminist influencers as HS Tikky Tokky, Sneako, Justin Waller, and Myron Gaines, the disarming documentarian goes behind the scenes of this emerging and toxic culture to chart how these controversial content creators are redefining masculinity and manhood. A “horrifying glimpse of a toxic culture mixed, as ever, with moments of surprising vulnerability,” Louis Theroux: Inside the Manosphere will be a must-watch.
Crackhead (ThreeNow, March 12)
Created by Shortland Street’s Holly Shervey and helmed by The Almighty Johnsons Emmett Skilton, the eight-part dark comedy Crackhead stars its creator as Frankie Jones, a party animal who’s faced with the option of rehab or jail after a hedonistic lifestyle of drugs and alcohol destroys her life. Faced with this ultimatum, she departs for Laast, a fictional town that’s home to the ironically-named Laast Resort, a wellness clinic where she must turn her life around in four weeks. A “potent dose of television that leaves you constantly wanting more,” Crackhead is tailor-made for lovers of laugh-out-loud local content.
Rooster (Neon, March 9)
Co-created by Scrubs showrunner Bill Lawrence, HBO’s Rooster stars Steve Carell as Greg Russo, a best-selling author and overprotective father. Brought in to speak at the prestigious university his daughter teaches at, the divorced dad decides to stick around as a guest lecturer while she’s in the midst of a personal and professional crisis (her husband, also a professor, has been cheating on her with a grad student). Reminiscent of Shrinking and Ted Lasso, Rooster is unmissable if you’re a fan of life-affirming comedies.
Stags (TVNZ+, March 9)
Featuring This Country’s Charlie Cooper and People Just Do Nothing’s Asim Chaudhry, Stags follows a group of lads who travel to South America for a bachelor party that goes horribly wrong. After a groomsman is caught smuggling cocaine by airport security the long-time friends are whisked off to a squalid Alcatraz-like prison where they must contend with their shocking new surroundings. An “exhilarating ride,” that is “gorgeously shot, beautifully played by all and seeded with multiple conflicts,” Stags is bound to be a whale of a time.
Good Luck, Have Fun, Don’t Die (Prime Video, March 13)
Gore Verbinski was once a Hollywood mainstay, having directed three Pirates of the Caribbean films and the Oscar-winning Rango, but The Lone Ranger sank his stock. Now he’s back with Good Luck, Have Fun, Don’t Die. The pitch-black sci-fi comedy follows Sam Rockwell as a man who travels back in time to a Los Angeles diner. To save humanity from a rogue AI apocalypse, he must take its patrons hostage and convince them to join his cause. Labelled as “a captivatingly silly saga about the pitfalls of our modern techno-obsessiveness,” Good Luck, Have Fun, Don’t Die is equal parts unnerving and unhinged.
Secret Mall Apartment (DocPlay, March 9)
The Spinoff may have ranked the malls of Christchurch, Wellington, Auckland, Hamilton and Dunedin, but eight Rhode Islanders took it one step further. Directed by Jeremy Workman and produced by Jesse Eisenberg, the “thoughtfully engaging” Secret Mall Apartment recounts the true story of those who built and lived in a secret room inside a local mall from 2003 to 2007. Labelled as one of the best films of 2025, this stranger-than-fiction tale will “make you see the world with fresh eyes, and probably wonder why there isn’t more art in it.”
Pick of the Flicks: The Secret Agent (AroVision, March 11)
Nominated for Best Picture, Best Actor, and Best International Feature Film at this year’s Oscars, Kleber Mendonça Filho’s The Secret Agent follows Wagner Moura’s Armando, a research scientist on the run. Set in the 1970s during Brazil’s brutal military dictatorship, and having caught the ire of the powers that be, he flees from São Paulo and returns to his hometown of Recife. What follows is a “marvellously rangy” and “sweatily atmospheric epic” tale of “love and fatherhood, tyranny and resistance.” Be sure to check out The Secret Agent to see what all the fuss is about.
