‘A very royal scandal’

Start streaming: September 19

Earlier this year, Netflix debuted a film called “Scoop,” about the complicated negotiations that led to Prince Andrew’s headline-making 2019 interview with BBC Two’s “Newsnight,” in which his relationship with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein was discussed. The three-part miniseries “A Very Royal Scandal” tells the same story in slightly more detail, from a screenplay by Jeremy Brock (the co-writer of “The Last King of Scotland”). Michael Sheen plays Prince Andrew, while Ruth Wilson plays Emily Maitlis, the interviewer who continued to press the prince with follow-up questions and demanded that he account for all the time he’d spent with Epstein over the years.

‘The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon – The Book of Carol’ Season 2

Start streaming: September 29

When this spinoff of The Walking Dead was first announced, it was set to follow the soulful hunter Daryl Dixon (Norman Reedus) and his hard-edged buddy Carol Peletier (Melissa McBride) as they teamed up to explore new territories in a zombie-ravaged world. But when that territory turned out to be Europe, McBride had to drop out for what was described as logistical reasons. Her Carol, however, made a cameo at the end of Season 1; and she’s now on board for Season 2 (and an already-announced Season 3). The new season will see Carol searching for her boyfriend in France, while Daryl reluctantly gets more involved in the twisted political situation overseas, trying to help some good people make things better.

‘Slow Horses’ Season 4

Start streaming: September 4th

No longer a dormant hit, the fast-paced espionage series is now breaking through to more mainstream recognition, including nabbing an impressive number of Emmy nominations for its third season. One of those nominations went to Jonathan Pryce, who plays David Cartwright, a retired senior MI5 officer and the grandfather/mentor of River Cartwright (Jack Lowden, another Emmy nominee), an ambitious agent assigned to the motley crew at Slough House, a division run by the sleazy but brilliant Jackson Lamb (Gary Oldman, another nominee). Season 4 is based on “Spook Street,” the fourth in Mick Herron’s Slough House series of novels, and the one that more directly explores how David’s complicated legacy affects River’s future at the agency. As always, expect “Slow Horses” to feature a meandering plot, some contemporary relevance and — most importantly — an eclectic cast of memorable characters.

‘Wolves’

Start streaming: September 27

George Clooney and Brad Pitt reunite onscreen for the first time in more than a decade for this actioner about a pair of criminal “fixers” — ruthless experts who dive into messy situations and do whatever needs to be done to clean them up, regardless of whether it’s legal or moral. (Think Harvey Keitel’s character, Winston Wolfe, in “Pulp Fiction,” but twice.) In “Wolfs,” Clooney and Pitt play fixers who are accidentally assigned to the same job and must figure out on the fly how to work together. “Wolfs” is written and directed by Jon Watts, who has spent the past 10 years making live-action Spider-Man movies with Tom Holland but first caught the attention of moviegoers in 2015 with his lean thriller “Cop Car,” which seems to have more in common with this latest effort.

‘Agatha Always’

Start streaming: September 18

The Marvel Cinematic Universe’s TV arm got off to a strong start in 2021 with “WandaVision,” a quirky spin on superhero lore that saw two members of the Avengers trapped in an artificial sitcom world. Now, three years later — and after the MCU TV series have waned somewhat — comes “Agatha All Along,” a “WandaVision” spinoff focused on that show’s surprise twist villain, vengeful witch Agatha Harkness (Kathryn Hahn). Created by Jac Schaeffer, the dark dramedy will see Agatha and an overeager teenager (Joe Locke) form a new coven and endure a series of supernatural trials. Expect some of the playful humor of “WandaVision,” aided by a supporting cast that includes Sasheer Zamata, Aubrey Plaza, Debra Jo Rupp and Patti LuPone.

‘The Old Man’ Season 2

Start streaming: September 13

It’s been two years since the entertaining TV adaptation of Thomas Perry’s thriller “The Old Man” became a surprise hit for FX and Hulu, so for those who need a refresher on the premise, take note. Jeff Bridges stars as a disgraced former CIA officer on the run from the government, living incognito as Dan Chase since falling in love with the wife of one of his targets. John Lithgow is Harold Harper, an old colleague of Chase’s who’s long wanted to close down his case before he retires. Alia Shawkat plays Angela, Harper’s protégée and Chase’s stepdaughter, who ends up in the custody of her biological father, an Afghan warlord, in the Season 1 finale. In Season 2, Harper joins Chase on an international cat-and-mouse adventure as the two veteran spies use decades of expertise to track down Angela.

‘My Brilliant Friend’ Season 4

Start streaming: September 9th

Since there are only four volumes in Elena Ferrante’s internationally bestselling Neapolitan Novels, it makes sense that this excellent TV adaptation would end with Season 4 — though that doesn’t make the finale any less bittersweet. The series has thus far told the story of Elena and Rafaella, best friends since they were children in a rough Naples neighborhood, as they grew into women, loved multiple men, had children, navigated the ups and downs of their careers, and saw the social changes in Italy from the 1950s to the 1970s. Season 4, set largely in the late ’80s, sees the two women grow closer than ever as they endure heartbreak and tragedy — and as they fight to rid their home of the criminals and chauvinists who have held power since they were children.

‘The Penguin’

Start streaming: September 19

Colin Farrell is unrecognizable in this supervillain miniseries, playing the same disfigured mob boss he played in the 2022 film “The Batman.” Comic book fans are very familiar with the show’s title character, The Penguin, aka Oswald Cobb, who has been Batman’s nemesis since 1941. In this version of The Penguin’s story, he’s more of a tragic figure: insecure about his physical appearance, worried about his legacy, and prone to channeling all of his hurt feelings into acts of cruelty and ruthlessness. This won’t be a show about heroes. Instead, it’s a crime drama about violent men and women struggling for control of a corrupt city, starring Cristin Milioti as The Penguin’s formidable rival, Sofia Falcone.

‘Tulsa King’ Season 2

Start streaming: September 15

Sylvester Stallone returns as Dwight Manfredi, aka the General, for a second season of seedy pulp thrillers courtesy of producer Taylor Sheridan in “Tulsa King.” The show has had some drama between seasons, with production moving to Atlanta (though it’s still largely set in Tulsa) and Season 1 showrunner Terence Winter being fired from his job and then being rehired as head writer, overseen by producer-director Craig Zisk. But Stallone remains the show’s anchor, playing a former top-tier New York Mafia captain trying to make a new life as an Oklahoma vice lord. The second season will also introduce new antagonists — a Kansas City mob boss played by Frank Grillo and a local businessman played by Neal McDonough, both of whom object to Dwight’s growing empire.

‘Fight Night: The Million Dollar Heist’

Start streaming: September 5th

Based on a true-crime podcast, this miniseries is set in 1970 Atlanta, in the days leading up to — and immediately following — Muhammad Ali’s first comeback fight. Kevin Hart plays Chicken Man, a numbers cruncher who, along with his wily but demanding partner Vivian (Taraji P. Henson), taps into their underworld connections to throw a big party for all the visiting black dignitaries. But when the party is robbed, Vivian and Chicken Man find themselves caught between big-time gangsters (played by Samuel L. Jackson and Terrence Howard) and a local police officer (Don Cheadle) assigned to keep Ali safe. “Fight Night” is an extended flashback to a pivotal moment in Atlanta’s history, when simmering racial tensions threatened to thwart the city’s efforts to reposition itself as a haven for black entrepreneurs.
