October Preview: 25 TV Shows & New Movies to Watch at Home
In the gallery above, our editors have selected the coming month's most promising TV shows (including limited series and specials) as well as movies available to watch at home through VOD and digital purchases, listed in order by premiere date. Many of these titles haven't been reviewed yet (and we haven't seen them), but they are the most intriguing new releases on paper, at least, arriving in October.
Limited series debuts October 23 on Netflix. Anya Taylor-Joy (Emma, Peaky Blinders) stars as an orphan turned young chess prodigy in a six-episode adaptation of Walter Tevis' 1983 novel from acclaimed screenwriter and frequent Steven Soderbergh collaborator turned director Scott Frank (whose last TV effort was 2017's Godless). Bill Camp and Marielle Heller also star in the series, which follows Taylor-Joy's Beth Harmon from the age of 8 (in the late 1950s) to 22, by which point she is struggling with addiction.
