1. The Terminal List (Season 2) — Amazon Prime Video
Chris Pratt returns as Navy SEAL Commander James Reece in the high-voltage continuation of Amazon’s military thriller hit. Adapted directly from Jack Carr’s bestselling novel True Believer, Season 2 pulls a battle-scarred Reece out of hiding and thrusts him into a clandestine global mission of violent redemption. Stretching across Europe, Africa, and the Middle East, Reece uncovers an intricate shadow conspiracy connecting high-level Washington officials to his own military past. Packed with kinetic tactical combat, gritty realism, and intense psychological stakes, it is the weekend’s primary action blockbuster.

2. VisionQuest — JioHotstar
Paul Bettany reprises his iconic role as the reconstructed White Vision in Marvel Television’s high-concept cyber-mystery. In the aftermath of Westview, Vision operates deep off the grid to avoid weaponization, consulting the internal AI personas built into his core code—including J.A.R.V.I.S., F.R.I.D.A.Y., and a resurrected, calculating Ultron (voiced once again by James Spader). When a massive black-market bounty is placed on his synthesized mind, Vision is forced on the run alongside a mysterious young ally. Balancing sleek cyberpunk aesthetics with existential sci-fi philosophy, it delivers pure MCU intrigue.
