Apple used The Instigators during WWDC to show off some new features for the Apple TV, but now we have a trailer that actually, you know, let’s you see what the movie is about. The heist flick starts streaming on August 9th, with a limited theatrical run the week before.
Summer Game Fest has officially wrapped up — you can check out all of the major announcements right here — and unsurprisingly host Geoff Keighley has confirmed that the multi-day showcase will be back in LA in 2025.
Apple’s push into sci-fi continues, but for a slightly younger audience: the streamer just released the first trailer for the coming-of-age series Me. It’s about a kid who can shapeshift, and it starts streaming on July 12th. It’ll be a busy month for sci-fi on Apple TV Plus, with Time Bandits and Sunny also premiering in July.
