Polygon highlights a diverse lineup hitting services right now, giving cross-platform players and entertainment fans plenty of options for background viewing or weekend downtime. Leading the charge is Disney's live-action adaptation of Moana, starring Dwayne Johnson and Catherine Laga'aia, which has officially made the jump to VOD after its theatrical run.
Meanwhile, comic fans diving into digital storefronts can check out Supergirl on HBO Max. Serving as a major stepping stone in the broader DCU roadmap, the film stars Milly Alcock as Kara Zor-El on a galactic hunt involving her canine companion Krypto.

Jason Statham returns in the maritime action thriller Mutiny, while platforms like Shudder and Hulu add genre fare like the Victorian-era horror Marama and the AI-themed sci-fi thriller Hot Spot. It is a solid weekend lineup for anyone balancing queue times, battle pass progression, and catching up on the latest film culture.
Polygon's complete weekend guide covers everything from VOD premieres to streaming debuts across Netflix, HBO Max, and Hulu. Whether you are looking for lighthearted family adventure or dark dystopian science fiction, the latest digital releases provide plenty of entertainment value to fill out your downtime between sessions.
