What to Stream: 'Dancing with the Stars,' Carly Rae Jepsen, 'Tony' and 'Marvel's Wolverine'
This week's streaming releases include the return of “Dancing with the Stars” with a two-night premiere on ABC and Disney+
The return of “Dancing with the Stars” and a new album from Luke Bryan are some of the new television, films, music and games headed to a device near you.
Also among the streaming offerings worth your time this week, as selected by The Associated Press’ entertainment journalists: A new album from Carly Rae Jepsen, RuPaul in “Stop That Train” and “Marvel's Wolverine” video game.
— It can be easy to miss some of the late summer standouts in theaters, but a number of them land on premium video-on-demand Tuesday. Matt Johnson’s “Tony,” starring Dominic Sessa as a young Anthony Bourdain, is a charming coming-of-age tale set over a 1970s summer on Cape Cod. Alexander Ullom’s “It Ends” is about friends on a late-night food run who become trapped on an infinite highway. And David Robert Mitchell’s “The End of Oak Street” is an Amblin-inspired suburban romp, with family drama and dinosaurs.
— “Stop That Train” (Sept. 20 on Netflix) stars RuPaul as the American president, and “Drag Race” alumni Ginger Minj and Jujubee play stewardesses on a train, the Glamazonian Express. Such is the setup of this bonkers comedy from “Hairspray” director Adam Shankman about a train speeding toward disaster.
— Very possibly the best movie I’ve seen in 2026 first came out in 1970. Satyajit Ray’s “Days and Nights in the Forest” has long been unavailable, unlike some of the Bengali master director’s other films. But a restoration released earlier this year revived a too-little-seen masterwork. It’s now streaming on the Criterion Channel, with an introduction from Wes Anderson. In it, three privileged bachelors from the city vacation in a rural Indian district populated by Santhals, an Indigenous group. Their interactions with the locals, as well as an elegant young woman (a beguiling Sharmila Tagore) visiting a family house, in ways both small and profound traverse chasms of caste, class and gender.
— He knows what works, and that’s what he continues to provide. Country all-star Luke Bryan will release his ninth studio album, “Signs,” on Friday — a 12-track collection of radio-ready classics. The medium is the message: These are feel-good tracks meant to warm the listener, from the crush-worthy “Country and She Knows It” to the cheeky “Fish Hunt Golf Drink” and beyond.
— Anthrax — one of the “Big Four” leaders of the thrash metal scene alongside Metallica, Megadeth and Slayer — is back with the band's first album in a decade. “Cursum Perficio,” out Friday, follows 2016’s “For All Kings” and promises huge riffs and venomous vocals. Start with the nearly seven-minute face-melter “The Edge of Perfection.”
— Carly Rae Jepsen returns with a double album, “Day & Night,” also out Friday. For those who really, really, really like her energetic synth-pop, you’ll want to jump straight to the second half. The first is full of psychedelic flair, with dreamy ’70s references instead of her familiar dance-pop.
