What’s New to Stream This Week: February 7, 2025 – Hulu, Disney+, Prime Video, Netflix & More!

 

Looking for something new to stream this week? Here's a curated list of fresh releases across major platforms from February 7 to February 14, 2025:

Netflix

• "Apple Cider Vinegar" (February 6): This limited series stars Kaitlyn Dever as Belle Gibson, an Australian wellness influencer who falsely claimed to have cured her terminal brain cancer through diet and wellness products. The show delves into her rise and fall, exploring the impact of her deception.

Netflix brings the true story of Australian influencer and scammer Belle Gibson (Booksmart's Kaitlyn Dever) to life in Apple Cider Vinegar. Belle built a wellness empire — complete with an app and cookbook — after she claimed she was treating her brain cancer with a healthy diet. But in reality, she never had cancer. The limited series intertwines her monstrous lie with the story of rival influencer Milla Blake (Alycia Debnam-Carey, It's What's Inside), who actually has cancer and is opting for a bogus all-natural treatment plan.

But while the highly stylized Apple Cider Vinegar tries to make points about how wellness grifters thrive off of the rise of social media, it ultimately lacks the depth to tackle this topic fully. As I wrote in my review, "Apple Cider Vinegar co-opts the aesthetics of aspirational social media posts in order to highlight just how big a role these platforms played in Belle's rise. But in making use of this visual language, is it really commenting on how shallow and artificial influencers' posts can be? Or is it falling prey to that very same artificiality?" — Belen Edwards, Entertainment Reporter

Starring: Kaitlyn Dever, Alycia Debnam-Carey, Aisha Dee, Tilda Cobham-Hervey, Mark Coles Smith, Ashley Zukerman, Susie Porter, Matt Nable, Phoenix Raei, Chai Hansen, Richard Davies, Essie Davis, Kieran Darcy-Smith, Catherine McClements

How to watch: Apple Cider Vinegar debuts on Netflix on Feb. 6.

• "Love Is Blind" Season 8 (February 14): The popular reality dating series returns, this time set in Minneapolis. Singles date and form connections without seeing each other, leading to engagements and the challenges that follow.

• "Kinda Pregnant"
  

  
   (February 6): Trainwreck's Amy Schumer is back, and using her brash and bawdy brand of humor to tackle the sacred cow of pregnancy. In this rom-com, she stars as Lainy Newton, a middle-aged grade school teacher who's struggling to settle down because she hasn't met the right guy. Meanwhile, her bestie since childhood (Jillian Bell) is married and expecting, as is the Gen Z TikTok influencer (Lizzie Broadway) who drives Lainy bonkers on the daily. So, what's a girl to do except pretend to be pregnant around strangers to score some compliments and kindness when she's desperately in need of both? However, this cringe-worthy coping mechanism becomes a real problem when Lainy meets a charming Zamboni driver (Will Forte, who should be in more rom-coms immediately) and his cool sister (Brianne Howey) — while wearing a foam belly. A screwball comedy about love, sex, jealousy, and yoga farts, Kinda Pregnant is true to Schumer's form, but only fitfully funny. Too many bits feel tired or tawdry. However, the romance subplot was enough to keep pulling us back in. Maybe not suited for a Netflix and Chill night, but a chill girls night, or a movie to throw on while folding laundry? — K.P.

  Starring: Amy Schumer, Jillian Bell, Lizzie Broadway, Brianne Howey, Urzila Carlson, and Will Forte

  How to watch: Kinda Pregnant debuts on Netflix on Feb. 6.

  Prime Video

  • "Invincible" Season 3 (February 7): The acclaimed animated superhero series continues with new episodes, following Mark Grayson's journey as he balances teenage life with his emerging superpowers.

  Truly embodying its title, Invincible is back! Season 3 of the animated adaptation of Robert Kirkman's comics sees the return of Mark Grayson aka Invincible (voiced by Beef's Steven Yeun) and all the carnage that usually accompanies him. We meet Mark being put through his paces by the Global Defense Agency's Cecil Stedman (Walton Goggins) in an attempt to power up in preparation for another Viltrumite face-off. And things just get more chaotic from there (as is the Invincible way). — S.C.
  

  Starring: Steven Yeun, J.K. Simmons, Sandra Oh, Walton Goggins, Simu Liu, Gillian Jacobs, Jason Mantzoukas, Aaron Paul, Kate Mara, Xolo Maridueña, John DiMaggio, Tzi Ma, Christian Convery, Andrew Rannells, Sterling K. Brown, Zazie Beetz, Chris Diamantopoulos, Zachary Quinto, Melise, Grey Griffin, Ross Marquand, Seth Rogen

  How to watch: Invincible is now streaming the first three episodes of Season 3 on Prime Video, with new episodes weekly.

  • "Clean Slate" (February 6): A heartwarming and humorous sitcom about a Black family in Alabama reconnecting across cultural gaps. Laverne Cox stars as Desiree Slate, a woman returning home after decades away to reconnect with her father, played by George Wallace. The show balances comedy with social issues, making it a must-watch.

  Starring: Laverne Cox, George Wallace, Telma Hopkins, D.K. Uzoukwu, Jay Wilkison, and Norah Murphy
  

  How to watch: Clean Slate debuts on Prime Video on Feb. 6.

  Max

  • "We Live In Time" (February 7): Starring Andrew Garfield and Florence Pugh, this romantic drama explores the complexities of love, family, and ambition as a couple navigates life's challenges over several decades.

  Peacock

  • "Piece By Piece" (February 9): One of the most ambitious ways to do a biopic, Pharrell Williams' Piece By Piece is coming to Peacock. The music icon's life and career is traced using Lego mini figures, recreating both his childhood, emergence into music, his work with N.E.R.D., production as The Neptunes, and meteoric rise to superstardom. There's plenty of appearances from the epic collaborators among Williams' career, with cameos from Kendrick Lamar, Missy Elliott, Daft Punk, Gwen Stefani, and more.

Disney

• The Lion King at the Hollywood Bowl 
  

  Last May, Disney celebrated 30 years of The Lion King with a special concert at the Hollywood Bowl, which honored not only the Oscar-winning 1994 animated movie, but also the Broadway musical adaptation, the 2019 live-action remake, and its prequel, Mufasa: The Lion King. This meant that gathered together were members of the original cast, like Jeremy Irons, Nathan Lane, Jason Weaver, and Ernie Sabella, as well as members of the remake's ensemble, like Billie Eichner, as well as Broadway luminaries Heather Headley and Bradley Gibson, composer Lebo M, and EGOT-achiever Jennifer Hudson. Now, Disney+ is bringing all of this and more into your home in a one-hour-and-seven-minute presentation. 
  

  Behind-the-scenes clips of the makings of these movies and this event are interspersed with the recorded live performances of all of those above, intercut with the elated reactions of the fans and celebrities present. (Keep an eye out for Craig Robinson, Mark Ruffalo, and the Kardashian clan, as they stand up and cheer in different sections of the show.) As teased in the trailer, the incredible costumes from the Broadway show are combined with projections and sheer star power to bring fresh life to long-beloved songs. Props to Lane and Sabella, who are as silly and seemingly spontaneous as Timon and Pumbaa were at their best. Personally, my favorite moment is Irons, dressed in boho business attire, singing "Be Prepared" as dancers dressed as hyenas swarm the stage and trek out into the audience. But I've always loved a biting villain song. — Kristy Puchko, Entertainment Editor

  Starring:  Lebo M, Jeremy Irons, Nathan Lane, Jason Weaver, Ernie Sabella, Billy Eichner, Heather Headley, Bradley Gibson, North West, and Jennifer Hudson

  How to watch: The Lion King at the Hollywood Bowl debuts on Disney Plus on Feb. 7.
