The second week of April 2026 is all set to entertain you, peeps! From the highly anticipated showdown in Vought Tower to the long-awaited return of TV’s most chaotic family, the schedule is packed with heavy hitters.
Whether you’re looking for gritty superhero satire, dark comedies, or sweeping regional romances, here is your definitive guide to the top OTT titles dropping this week.
Star Wars: Maul – Shadow Lord (JioHotstar)
Release Date: April 6
Darth Maul returns in this gritty, atmospheric series that dives into the “Shadow Land” era of the Star Wars mythos. Picking up with the former Sith apprentice as he builds his criminal empire, the show leans into a darker, more grounded tone than recent franchise entries. The first two episodes are already streaming, offering a masterclass in lightsaber choreography and underworld lore.
The Boys: Season 5 (Prime Video)
Release Date: April 8
The wait is finally over. The fifth and final season of The Boys kicks off with a two-episode premiere that promises to be more explosive (and likely more deranged) than ever. As Billy Butcher and Homelander head toward their inevitable endgame, the stakes have shifted from corporate politics to all-out survival.
Malcolm in the Middle: Life’s Still Unfair (JioHotstar)
Release Date: April 10
Twenty years later, the “middle child” is back, and he’s a father. Frankie Muniz reprises his iconic role in this four-episode miniseries. The plot finds a grown-up Malcolm attempting to distance himself from his past, only to be dragged back into the family chaos for Hal and Lois’s 40th wedding anniversary. Bryan Cranston and Jane Kaczmarek return to prove that some family dynamics never change.
Outcome (Apple TV)
Release Date: April 10
Director Jonah Hill brings a star-studded dark comedy to the screen, starring Keanu Reeves as Reef Hawk, a Hollywood star facing extortion. When a mysterious video threatens to destroy his career, Reef must revisit the people he’s wronged in a quest for redemption, or at least survival. With a supporting cast including Cameron Diaz and Matt Bomer, this is a must-watch for fans of sharp, cynical humour
Tu Yaa Main (Netflix)
Release Date: April 10
Following its theatrical run, this survival thriller starring Shanaya Kapoor and Adarsh Gourav makes its digital debut. Directed by Bejoy Nambiar, the film follows two social media influencers whose romance takes a dark, dangerous turn. It’s a stylish, fast-paced look at the cost of fame in the digital age.
Main Woh Aur Fuji (SonyLIV)
Release Date: April 10
This Marathi-language romance is a breathtaking visual journey. Filmed extensively in Japan and India, the story follows an estranged couple (Lalit Prabhakar and Mrinmayee Godbole) who reunite in Japan seven years after a toxic breakup. It’s a mature, layered exploration of how time and distance change the heart.
O’Romeo (Prime Video)
