The East Palace (Series)
Launch date: July 17

Set in a fictional historical era, a malevolent supernatural curse takes hold of the royal grounds, prompting the King (Cho Seung-woo) to secretly recruit an unlikely duo to eradicate the threat.

He summons Gu-cheon (Nam Joo-hyuk), an arrogant and formidable ghost-slayer armed with a specialized spirit-killing blade and the rare ability to traverse between the human world and the spectral realm. Joining him is Saeng-gang (Roh Yoon-seo), a court lady harboring her own secrets, who possesses the unique gift to hear and communicate with the dead.

As they navigate the haunted corridors of the East Palace and venture into the spirit world, they must work together to unravel the origin of the hauntings. However, they soon find themselves caught in a dangerous web of political intrigue, restless spirits, and dark, long-buried royal secrets, all while the enigmatic King watches their every move with motives that are entirely his own.

Enola Holmes 3 (Film)

However, her personal and professional dreams instantly collide on the day of the ceremony. Dr. John Watson (Himesh Patel) arrives with shocking news: Enola’s famous brother, Sherlock Holmes (Henry Cavill), has been kidnapped. With her mother Eudoria (Helena Bonham Carter) trusting only Enola to handle the rescue, the bride-to-be must pause her impending nuptials.

Human Vapor (Series)
Launch date: July 2

When a shocking, inexplicable murder occurs on live television, Tokyo is thrown into a state of panic.

As a dedicated detective (Shun Oguri) is assigned to hunt down this elusive phantom, his investigation uncovers a deeply disturbing reality. The killer’s powers are not a natural phenomenon, but the result of a sinister, top-secret military or corporate project that deliberately targeted, experimented on, and ultimately discarded society’s most vulnerable people.

To stop the “human vapor” and expose the dark truth behind the conspiracy, the detective must navigate a dangerous web of corporate cover-ups and political corruption before the gaseous killer strikes again.

Led by the determined Charles “Pa” Ingalls (Luke Bracey) and Caroline “Ma” Ingalls (Crosby Fitzgerald), the family seeks a new beginning on the open prairie. Seen through the eyes of their sharp-witted and fiercely independent young daughter, Laura (Alice Halsey), the series explores a grimmer, more realistic look at frontier life than previous screen versions. The family must brave harsh winters, illness, the immense joys of untouched nature, and the brutal realities of survival, all while learning what it truly means to build a community from the ground up.

They raise enough money to purchase a repurposed old fishing boat and courageously set sail into the open sea. Against all odds, their mission succeeds, ultimately saving the lives of over 23,000 people in distress. However, as their humanitarian efforts expand, the group’s idealistic mission runs headlong into the harsh, rigid realities of international institutions, forcing them into a complex and harrowing struggle over law, accountability, and the true cost of justice.
