The next few months will be big for Apple TV+ with several new shows and films coming your way. Here’s a snapshot.

The Instigators

Rory (Matt Damon) and Cobby (Casey Affleck) are reluctant partners: a desperate father and an ex-con thrown together to pull off a robbery of the ill-gained earnings of a corrupt politician. But when the heist goes wrong, the two find themselves engulfed in a whirlwind of chaos, pursued not only by police, but also backwards bureaucrats and vengeful crime bosses. They convince Rory’s therapist (Hong Chau) to join their riotous getaway through the city, where they must put aside their differences and work together to evade capture—or worse. The film is directed by Doug Liman and will premiere on August 9.

Bad Monkey

The highly anticipated comedy from award-winning executive producer Bill Lawrence (Ted Lasso, Shrinking), features acclaimed actor, producer and screenwriter Vince Vaughn, who also serves as an executive producer. The 10-episode series will premiere on August 14. It tells the story of Andrew Yancy (Vaughn), who has been bounced from the Miami Police Department and is now a health inspector in the Keys. But after stumbling upon a case that begins with a human arm fished up by tourists, he realises that if he can prove murder, he’ll be back in. He needs to get past a trove of Floridian oddballs and one bad monkey.

Cowboy Cartel

The new four-part documentary series features the extraordinary story of the rookie FBI agent who cracked the case of one of Mexico’s most ruthless cartels, Los Zetas, and the multimillion-dollar money laundering operation they ran through the heart of the American Quarter Horse racing industry. It will make its global debut on August 2.

Pachinko (season two)

The story begins with forbidden love and crescendos into a sweeping saga that journeys between Korea, Japan and America to tell an unforgettable story of war and peace, love and loss, triumph and reckoning. Season two will premiere on August 23.

Wolfs

George Clooney and Brad Pitt team up for the action comedy Wolfs, written and directed by Jon Watts. Clooney plays a professional fixer hired to cover up a high-profile crime. But when a second fixer (Pitt) shows up and the two “lone wolves” are forced to work together, they find their night spiralling out of control in ways that neither one of them expected. In theatres on September 20 and will stream on Apple TV+ following its theatrical run.
