As October 2025 arrives, streaming platforms are gearing up to offer viewers a diverse lineup of new movies to enjoy. One of the most anticipated releases is the action thriller "Play Dirty," which debuted on Prime Video on October 1st. Inspired by the Parker novels, the film stars Mark Wahlberg in a breathless heist story involving the New York mafia and a tech billionaire.

Fans of classic comedies will be delighted to see the 1992 film "Death Becomes Her" arrive on Netflix on the same day. Directed by Robert Zemeckis, the supernatural rom-com features standout performances from Meryl Streep and Goldie Hawn as two women competing for the same man.

Later in the month, on October 10th, Peacock will premiere a live-action remake of the beloved animated film "How to Train Your Dragon." Directed by Dean DeBlois, the new version promises to capture the same spirit of the original while embracing the grandeur of live-action filmmaking.
