Paramount Pictures has acquired U.S. rights to the crime thriller 'By Any Means,' starring Mark Wahlberg and Yahya Abdul-Mateen II. Directed by Elegance Bratton, the film is scheduled for theatrical release on September 4, 2026. The announcement came ahead of CinemaCon.
Prime Video released all eight episodes of 'Scarpetta', a forensic crime drama based on Patricia Cornwell's novels, on March 11, 2026, with Nicole Kidman starring as chief medical examiner Kay Scarpetta. The series opens with a new murder echoing a serial killer case from 28 years prior, amid family tensions and workplace rivalries. Reviewers praise Kidman's commanding performance and intensity but critique the overstuffed narrative and uneven pacing.
