If your Paramount+ queue needs a refresh, this week brings a handy mix of brand-new premieres, recent additions, and proven crowd-pleasers—spanning action, horror, documentaries, and comfort comedies. Below you’ll find ten easy picks pulled from the latest weekly drops and what viewers have actually been watching on the service, with quick notes on who made them, who’s in them, and when they landed on Paramount+ so you can jump straight to what fits your mood.

‘The Naked Gun’ (2025)

Paramount’s slapstick cop-spoof returns with Liam Neeson headlining a new caper directed by Akiva Schaffer, with Pamela Anderson and Paul Walter Hauser in key supporting roles. It’s a legacy sequel that continues the misadventures launched by the original films and the ‘Police Squad!’ TV series. The movie hit Paramount+ following its 2025 release, making it one of the freshest options on the platform right now. If you’re catching up on recent debuts, this is front-of-the-line material.

‘Vicious’ (2025)

A recent Paramount+ addition from director Bryan Bertino pairs Dakota Fanning with a cursed-object horror setup that spirals into supernatural torment. The film began streaming on the service in October, positioning it among the newest genre titles available to subscribers. It’s a concise, modern shocker anchored by a star lead and a filmmaker known for lean, unnerving thrillers. File it under this month’s notable horror drops.

‘Ozzy: No Escape from Now’ (2025)

This feature documentary charts Ozzy Osbourne’s last six years, with candid interviews from Ozzy, Sharon, their children, and collaborators like Tony Iommi, Zakk Wylde, and James Hetfield. Directed by Tania Alexander and produced by Paramount Television Studios, the film arrived on Paramount+ on October 7. It traces a timeline from a serious fall through studio work, farewell performances, and family reflections. Music fans get a detailed, career-spanning portrait with fresh access.

‘Fight or Flight’ (2025)

Director James Madigan stages an action-comedy almost entirely aboard a commercial airliner, with Josh Hartnett protecting a high-value target as assassins converge mid-air. Co-stars include Charithra Chandran and Katee Sackhoff, and the film runs a tight 102 minutes. After a spring theatrical run, it began streaming on Paramount+ in early October. Expect high-concept mayhem built around clever aisle-to-cockpit set pieces.

‘Regretting You’ (2025)

Paramount+ debuts this adaptation of Colleen Hoover’s novel about a mother and daughter navigating grief, secrets, and first love. Josh Boone directs from a script by Susan McMartin, with Allison Williams and Mckenna Grace leading the cast alongside Dave Franco and Mason Thames. The film bowed on the service on Friday, October 24. It’s a current-release drama anchored by a well-known book and a marquee ensemble.

‘Shadow Land’ (2024)

James Bamford directs a tense thriller written by Steven Paul, centered on a former president tormented by assassination nightmares that may point to a larger plot. The cast features Jon Voight, Marton Csokas, Rhona Mitra, and Philip Winchester. It’s part of the latest Paramount+ catalog refresh rolling out together this week. If you’re browsing for a recent thriller among the new arrivals, add this one to the queue.

‘Finding Neverland’ (2004)

Marc Forster’s biographical drama follows playwright J. M. Barrie as his friendship with the Llewelyn Davies family sparks the creation of ‘Peter Pan’. Johnny Depp stars with Kate Winslet, Julie Christie, and Dustin Hoffman, in a story adapted by David Magee from Allan Knee’s play. It’s among the titles that landed in the new mid-week Paramount+ drop. A gentle, awards-season staple, it’s an accessible pick for family viewing.

‘Men in Black’ (1997)

Barry Sonnenfeld directs Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones as agents policing extraterrestrial life on Earth, with makeup effects icon Rick Baker crafting the creatures. The movie helped launch a long-running franchise and remains a brisk, franchise-starting crowd-pleaser. It appears both in the week’s arrivals and in the current most-watched mix on Paramount+. If you want a guaranteed easy watch, this one’s sitting near the top of the homepage for a reason.

‘Top Gun: Maverick’ (2022)

Joseph Kosinski’s follow-up brings Tom Cruise back as Pete “Maverick” Mitchell to train an elite detachment for a near-impossible mission, with aerial footage captured in real fighter jets. Miles Teller, Jennifer Connelly, and Glen Powell round out the cast, and the film earned major accolades, including an Academy Award for Best Sound. It’s currently charting among Paramount+’s most-watched titles. Perfect for a big-screen energy hit on a living-room setup.

‘Scream 2’ (1997)

Wes Craven’s meta-sequel, written by Kevin Williamson, moves the action to Windsor College as copycat killings flare around a movie-within-the-movie. Neve Campbell, Courteney Cox, and David Arquette return, joined by Sarah Michelle Gellar, Liev Schreiber, and Jerry O’Connell. It’s part of the new batch hitting Paramount+ in one mid-week drop. If you’re building a franchise mini-marathon, this pairs cleanly with the platform’s other ‘Scream’ entries.
