If you're subscribed to the major streamers, then May is going to be a very good month for movie and TV fans. It's also worth mentioning that this month marks the first streaming appearances from a pair of very successful movies that debuted in theaters earlier this year. Both of those films are among Watch With Us' picks for the five new movies and TV shows you need to watch in May 2026. The rest of our selections include a new adaptation of a classic novel, the return of an action hero and the closest thing we're going to get to a live-action Spider-Man TV show.
