The 11 Best Movies and TV Shows to Watch This Weekend
Briefly

Jurassic World: Rebirth is an entertaining installment in the franchise, starring Scarlett Johansson and Jonathan Bailey. They navigate a plot involving a pharmaceutical company and dinosaur blood. Meanwhile, Charlize Theron reprises her role as Andy in a sequel to the Netflix superhero film, with Uma Thurman joining as Discord. Controversy surrounds Neil Gaiman, accused of nonconsensual activity, affecting some of his projects, but Netflix's The Sandman continues with its second and final season. This holiday, options for entertainment outside the traditional sphere are limited, driving audiences outdoors.
Universal will never let the Jurassic franchise die. At least Rebirth is more entertaining than the abysmal Dominion. Scarlett Johansson stars as an operative, Zora Bennett, who is hired by a pharmaceutical company to take Jonathan Bailey's paleontologist, Dr. Henry Loomis, to a former InGen facility to get some dino blood.
In the sequel to director Gina Prince-Bythewood's 2020 Netflix superhero hit, Charlize Theron returns as Andy, a formerly all-powerful immortal dealing with the fallout of the first film. Uma Thurman joins the cast as Discord, another immortal, not the app.
Beginning in 2024, multiple women accused the writer Neil Gaiman of nonconsensual sexual activity. In a New York cover story, the women described a pattern of sexual assault, coercion, and nonconsensual BDSM. In the wake of these allegations, many of Gaiman's TV and movie projects were put on hold. But not Netflix's The Sandman.
