A year of streaming movies begins with a little old and a little new, from George Clooney's 1950s newsman to Jared Leto as a high-tech digital warrior.

The cinematic pickings are notoriously iffy in January but your favorite services like Netflix, Peacock, Hulu, Disney+ and Amazon's Prime Video have got the hookup for every taste. We've got theatrical fare finally coming home, like the latest "Tron" franchise outing, plus original movies like a Netflix rom-com based on a BookTok favorite. Hey, there's even a Broadway show – and you don't even have to brave Times Square crowds.

Here are 10 new and notable movies you can stream right now:

'Bugonia'

Michelle (Emma Stone) gets interrogated by cousins Teddy (Jesse Plemons, far right) and Don (Aidan Delbis) in "Bugonia."

Yorgos Lanthimos' gonzo comedy/psychological romp offers dark-web weirdness and sci-fi paranoia. Emma Stone plays a pharmaceutical CEO who is kidnapped by a pair of conspiracy-theorist cousins (Jesse Plemons and Aidan Delbis) who believe she's an alien bent on world domination, leading to a battle of wills and a wildly chaotic climax.

Where to watch: Peacock

'Chain Reactions'

Patton Oswalt is one of several horror-loving luminaries interviewed in "Chain Reactions," a documentary about the original 1970s "Texas Chain Saw Massacre."

Ever felt an innate connection watching Leatherface go bonkers in "The Texas Chain Saw Massacre"? This new documentary features deep-dive interviews with comedian Patton Oswalt, legendary author Stephen King and others about the artistic legacy of the 1974 horror classic and why it's a timeless "American nightmare."

'Good Night, and Good Luck: Live from Broadway'

George Clooney in “Good Night & Good Luck”

George Clooney directed the 2005 "Good Luck" movie but takes the stage – literally! - in this filmed production of last year's Broadway show. Clooney scored a Tony nomination for his role in the historical play as Edward R. Murrow, the 1950s CBS journalist who takes on the blacklisting tactics of Sen. Joseph McCarthy.

Where to watch: Netflix

'The Life of Chuck'

Chuck Krantz (Tom Hiddleston) enjoys a dance with Janice (Annalise Basso) in "The Life of Chuck," based on the Stephen King novella.

Based on the Stephen King novella, director Mike Flanagan's supremely joyous character study – the best movie of 2025 – involves an apocalypse, multiple dance extravaganzas and a haunted attic. Tom Hiddleston plays the accountant whose story unfurls in epic and intimate ways, though the movie is less about Chuck and more about all of us.

Where to watch: Hulu

'One Battle After Another'

Bob Ferguson (Leonardo DiCaprio) scrambles to find his missing daughter in "One Battle After Another."

Boasting a leading nine Golden Globe nominations, director Paul Thomas Anderson’s timely action dramedy is a must-see heading into Oscar season. Leonardo DiCaprio stars as a scruffy former revolutionary desperate to find his teen daughter (Chase Infiniti) with an old enemy (Sean Penn) in hot pursuit.

Where to watch: HBO Max

'People We Meet on Vacation'

Emily Bader stars as Poppy and Tom Blyth is Alex in the romantic comedy "People We Meet on Vacation."

The romantic comedy adapting the Emily Henry novel is a breezy affair, at least until it takes a serious turn downwind. Poppy (Emily Bader) and Alex (Tom Blyth) are unlikely college best friends who go on vacations together – usually with high jinks involved – every summer until significant others and their feelings for one another complicate matters.

Where to watch: Netflix

'Regretting You'

Morgan (Allison Williams) and Jonah (Dave Franco) are forced to face family secrets and betrayal when an accident takes the lives of their loved ones in the drama "Regretting You," based on the Colleen Hoover novel.

The Colleen Hoover book adaptation lays the romantic drama on thick. Morgan (Allison Williams) and her brother-in-law Jonah (Dave Franco) lose their spouses in a car wreck but learn they were having an affair, while Morgan also deals with her teen daughter (Mckenna Grace) falling for a popular local boy (Mason Thames).
