Streaming newest movies, TV shows, music, and games are coming soon to a device near you. These include Drake’s latest record, the corporate thriller “Fair Play” starring Phoebe Dynevor, and a CBS game show that is being called Mexico’s version of Bingo.

The Associated Press’s entertainment reporters chose “The Caine Mutiny Court Martial,” the last movie directed by William Friedkin, as one worth your time. Also, on NBC, season two of “Quantum Leap” begins.

There are new movies for streaming.

— In the business movie streaming “Fair Play,” Phoebe Dynevor (Bridgerton) and Alden Ehrenreich (Solo) play two analysts at the same hedge fund who are seeing each other behind their jobs. Because the workplace is sexist and competitive, it’s not really a good place for dating. The movie by Chloe Domont shows this to be especially true after Emily (Dynevor) gets a raise that Luke (Ehrenreich) thought he would get. Fans of the Sundance Film Festival loved “Fair Play,” which started watching on Netflix on Friday. The movie has a lot of sexual scenes and tough relationships between men and women.

— Although William Friedkin passed away in August, the famous director of “The French Connection” and “The Exorcist” left behind one movie. Friedkin’s last movie is a streaming “The Caine Mutiny Court Martial,” which had its world premiere at the Venice Film Festival in early September. The movie comes out on Showtime and Paramount+ on Friday. It’s based on Herman Wouk’s popular play from the 1950s, which is a courtroom drama about bad management and mutiny on a U.S. Navy warship. Friedkin, whose long career includes stage versions of plays like Tracy Letts’ “Bug” and “Killer Joe,” moves the story from World War II to America after 9/11. It has Jason Clarke, Keifer Sutherland, and the late Lance Reddick in it.

— As October streaming mania approaches, a long line of scary movies takes its rightful place on movie theater screens. There are movies that are more creepy than scary, but “The Haunted Mansion” is also creepy. The movie is based on a Walt Disney World theme park feature. It is directed by Justin Simien (“Dear White People”) and stars LaKeith Stanfield as an inspector who is asked to look into a haunted house. The group cast includes streaming Rosario Dawson, Owen Wilson, Danny DeVito, Tiffany Haddish, and Jamie Lee Curtis. As AP Film Writer Lindsey Bahr said in her review, “By no means a terrible movie, or even an unpleasant watch, but it’s just missing the magic that makes the trip to the theaters (or Disney World) worth it.” We also gave them praise for their acting.

STREAMING NEW MUSIC

— Drake is no stranger to a creative roll-out streaming. The OVO rapper likes surprise drops, as “Honesty, Nevermind” from last year can attest. He did, however, give fans a little sneak peek at his much-anticipated “For all the Dogs” record this year. Drake hinted at working with Nicki Minaj and Bad Bunny on stage at some stops on his hugely popular streaming “It’s All A Blur” Tour. This is the first time the two have worked together since 2018’s “MÍA,” where Drake’s Spanish-language music was heard all over the world.

— When country streaming music was at its peak in the 1990s, Reba McEntire was already a giant in her field thanks to her many steady number one hits, such as her famous cover of Bobby Gentry’s feminist anthem “Fancy.” Now, she’s getting ready to release “Not So Fancy,” a clever collection of acoustic versions of her biggest hits. The songs sound different in this arrangement, mostly because of how rich McEntire’s voice is. One thing that stands out is Dolly Parton singing “Do He Love You” instead of Linda Davis.

— Being in a boy band streaming music is funny because it helps you become a man, find your own identity outside of the group you spent your whole teen and young adult years in, and figure out what to do next. For Louis Tomlinson, the cocky and edgy member of One Direction, the road hasn’t been easy. He is British and 1/5 Irish. With a charismatic sense of normalcy, Tomlinson handles extraordinary situations in his documentary “All of Those Voices,” which you can watch on Paramount+ on Wednesday. You might forget that this 31-year-old performer used to be in the biggest band in the world because of how carefully and realistically he or she writes about grief, children, identity, and making art.

STREAMING NEW SERIES

— “Jane the Virgin” scene-stealer Jaime Camil is the host of a new game show on CBS called “Lotería Loca.” People have said that it’s like Bingo in Mexico. The show is very lively, simple to learn, and Sheila E. leads the house band. In every show, there’s a chance to win $1 million. You can watch “Lotería Loca” on Paramount+ and on CBS every Monday.

— Wednesday was the first day of Season 2 of “Quantum Leap” on NBC. The story takes place 30 years after the original by Scott Bakula. Raymond Lee plays Ben, a physicist working on a project called Quantum Leap to move through time. When Ben goes back in time, he can’t get back, but he jumps around in the past and takes on different bodies. In the show, Raymond’s coworkers also try to bring him back to the present. You can also watch episodes on Peacock the next day.

— With “Bargain,” Paramount+ makes use of the popularity of Korean-made TV shows. The show starts at a motel in the middle of nowhere where guys go to meet prostitutes. It was based on an award-winning short film. The men were then shown to have been tricked into going to the motel as a trap for a real-life organ sale on the black market, and they are the ones being auctioned off. That sounds intense, right? Things are getting worse. There is an earthquake, and a group of people who don’t trust each other have to fight to stay alive. All six shows came out on Thursday. Jun Jong-seo from “Money Heist: Korea” is one of the stars.

— Seven episodes make up the third part of Netflix’s “Lupin.” Omar Sy plays France’s favorite charming professional thief again. Sy plays Assane, a man who is good at hiding his identity and tricking people. He goes after people he thinks deserve it. Assane looks a lot like the main character in a book of short stories called “Arsène Lupin, Gentleman Burglar.” At the start of the show, Assane was planning how to get revenge on the people who wrongfully put his father in jail and killed him. His mother needs his help in season three, which comes out Thursday.
