Meg 2, The Great Escaper, and Five Nights at Freddy’s are among the big movies premiering on Sky Cinema and NOW TV this month, details of which can be found in our streaming preview. Also streaming this month is the second season of House of the Dragon, which we hope will be as good as the first season of the Game of Thrones spin-off.
Below is a list of all the scheduled movies and shows coming to Sky and NOW TV in June 2024. Bookmark this page as more titles will be added as they become known.

Meg 2: The Trench (2023)
Release Date: June 7
It’s man vs shark, again, in this Ben Wheatly-directed sequel starring Jason Statham as the only man alive who can take on a shark in a fight and come out on top.
The movie is as ridiculous as you might expect and while we didn’t rate it highly in our review, you might still want to tune in if the idea of Statham going mano to mano with a prehistoric sea behemoth appeals to you!
The Royal Hotel (2023)
Release Date: June 8
Julia Garner and Jessica Henwick star in this acclaimed thriller about two backpackers who find themselves in a dangerous situation when they run out of money and take a job in a remote Outback pub.
The Great Escaper (2023)
Release Date: June 14
Michael Caine’s final screen appearance sees him on fine form as a man who escapes from his care home to attend the 70th anniversary of the D-Day landings in France. Glenda Jackson, who passed away after making this film, gives an equally transfixing performance in this based on a true story film.
House of the Dragon – Season 2 (Sky Atlantic)
Release Date: June 17
Get ready for some dragon vs dragon action in this second season of the better-than-expected spin-off to HBO’s hit fantasy series Game of Thrones.
Season 2 picks up where the first season left off, with a focus on the devastating Targaryen civil war, aka Dance of the Dragons, and the battle for the Iron Throne.
Five Nights at Freddy’s (2023)
Release Date: June 21
When Mike Schmidt (Josh Hutcherson) starts his new job as a night guard at Freddy Fazbear’s Pizza, a once-successful but now abandoned family entertainment centre, he is forced into a battle for survival when its four animatronic mascots – Freddy Fazbear, Chica, Bonnie, and Foxy – spring murderously to life!
Critics weren’t overly kind about this video game adaptation – we shared our disappointment in our review of Five Nights at Freddy’s – but fans of the game might want to check out the movie regardless, if only to see how faithfully the game has been translated to the screen.
Sometimes I Think About Dying (2024)
Release Date: June 22
Daisy Ridley stars as an introverted office worker who is comforted by the idea of death. She’s tired of the daily drudgery of her existence but there’s a chance she might find life worth living when she begins dating the new man at work.
