Here are this week's films and series.
FILM (première: 21/6).
"
" (Netflix).Before building a billion-dollar company by selling baby products, Jessica Alba was a major film star. Now, the 43-year-old is making a comeback with her first film role of the 2020s. Parker is a commando who returns home when her dad suddenly dies. Her martial arts skills come in handy back home, where she must physically fight corrupt politicians and criminal gangs that have taken over the city. And Parker soon realises that her dad's death was no accident.
"
" (25/6, Prime Video).The singer's recent years have been marked by the rare neurological disease that has kept her off stage. Now, the Canadian artist openly talks about her health and looks back on a magnificent career in a highly anticipated documentary.
"
" (25/6, Disney+).Diane von Furstenberg is both a fashion icon and a powerful woman, known for her wrap dress. But her story outside the fashion world is just as interesting. She is the daughter of a Holocaust survivor and entered high society through a highly publicised marriage to the fragile Prince Egon. Everything is told in this new documentary.
TV/STREAMING
"
" (26/6, SVT Play).Drama series that became both a critic's favourite and a viewer's success on Viaplay a few years ago. But the fully produced second season was never shown on the crisis-stricken streaming service, and now SVT is taking over – and showing both seasons. Siri (Matilda Källström) and David (Simon Lööf) have been together for seven years and now live in London. Their relationship has become a bit routine, and when they end up in bed with a third person on a wet night, it marks the start of a very tumultuous time for Siri and David. The first season is now being released on SVT Play, and the second a week later.
"Supacell" (27/6, Netflix).
British rapper Rapman is behind this science fiction series about five ordinary Brits from south London who turn out to have superpowers. The only common denominator is their skin colour.
"My lady Jane" (27/6, Prime Video).
British comedy series loosely based on the story of Lady Jane Grey, who was briefly the Queen of England and Ireland in the 16th century.
