Competing dramas about Prince Andrew’s disastrous 2019 interview wasn’t on our Bingo card for 2024, but it’s what viewers are getting nevertheless. That is to say, Prime Video will soon release A Very Royal Scandal, a new miniseries that follows BBC journalist Emily Maitlis as she prepares to put Prince Andrew in the hot seat. It’s not to be confused with the Netflix movie Scoop, which premiered in April and covered similar ground. Surely, Prince Andrew is out there wondering if he should cancel his streaming subscriptions altogether! Putting royal scandals aside, what else is new on Prime Video this September? Read on for the full schedule plus highlights.

Best New Series on Amazon Prime Video
When it comes to series, Prime Video has something for everyone this September. That includes new seasons of fan favourites and at least one series premiere. Here are the best new series on Prime Video for this month.
The Grand Tour: One For the Road
Release Date: 13 September 2024
Buckle up, baby, because The Grand Tour is taking one last ride. Join co-hosts Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond, and James May as they do what they do best: drive epic vehicles through exotic locales while bickering with one another. For their final adventure, the trio will take three classic vintage cars into the heart of Zimbabwe. The landscape is equal parts thrilling and hostile, and so are the hosts, so be prepared for a truly unforgettable experience.
Tulsa King
Release Date: 2 September 2024
From the creator of Yellowstone (among numerous other shows and movies) comes this gangster drama with ample comic relief. Sylvester Stallone plays mob boss Dwight “The General” Manfredi, who’s exiled to Tulsa, Oklahoma, following his 25-year prison stint. A whale out of water perhaps, but that doesn’t stop Manfredi from building a new criminal empire right there in America’s heartland.
A Very Royal Scandal
Release Date: 19 September 2024
For those who can’t get enough of Prince Andrew’s scandalous 2019 interview, Prime Video presents this three-part British miniseries about that very subject. It stars Michael Sheen as the now-disgraced prince and Ruth Wilson as Emily Maitlis, the reporter tasked with grilling him over his connections to Jeffrey Epstein. Watch it back-to-back with the Netflix movie Scoop and take a shot every time Prince Andrew creeps you out. Then get yourself to an emergency room because you’ve definitely taken too many shots!
Call Me Bae
Release Date: 6 September 2024
This upcoming Hindi-language dramedy series tells the story of Bella Chowdhary—aka Bae—a spoiled fashionista who goes from riches to rags. Down but far from out, Bae moves to Mumbai and uses her street smarts to mount a career in journalism. Bollywood star Ananya Pandey tackles the title role.
Best New Movies on Prime Video
If you didn’t catch movies like The Iron Claw in theatres, you’ll have the chance to stream them on Prime Video this September. A number of other titles will also be available to rent or buy. Here are the highlights.
The Iron Claw
Release Date: 20 September 2024
Call it a hot take if you will, but Zac Efron’s performance in this biopic was one of the best we’ve seen in recent memory. The movie itself was also pretty remarkable in its depiction of the real-life Von Erichs, a family of talented wrestlers that falls victim to one tragedy after another. It’s said that the family is “cursed” but the story reveals something more relatable: an obsessive father (Holt McCallany) who psychologically drives his offspring into the ground. Jeremy Allen White, Maura Tierney, Lily James, and Harris Dickinson co-star.
Force of Nature: The Dry 2
Release Date: 5 September 2024
Aussie actor Eric Bana reprises the role of federal agent Aaron Falk for this unexpected sequel (drawn from a popular book series). This time around, Falk and his partner head into the Giralang Ranges to search for a missing whistle-blower. What they find instead is a potential cover-up with deadly ramifications. Meanwhile, a storm is approaching…
Killer Heat
Release Date: 26 September 2024
This brand-new crime drama puts a modern twist on the noir subgenre and stars Joseph Gordon-Levitt as private eye Nick Bali. An American living in Greece, Bali is hired to look into the mysterious death of a powerful shipping magnate. If we know anything about this kind of storytelling, we know that nothing is as it first appears and no one can be trusted. You have our attention, Killer Heat!
Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire
Release Date: 19 September 2024
Full disclosure: we found the 2021 sequel/reboot Ghostbusters: Afterlife to be fairly abysmal (which isn’t to mention the other lacklustre entries). Hence, it will take some convincing before we give this recent instalment and its reported barrage of fan service a shot. The story takes place in New York City and unites the new Ghostbusters with the outfit’s surviving original members. Together, they must take on an evil force and reverse the spread of a second Ice Age.
Best New Documentaries and Events on Prime Video
If you’re a documentary lover, Prime Video has something for you this September. Here’s a closer look.
Elisabeth Rioux: Unfiltered
Release Date: 6 September 2024
French-Canadian influencer and entrepreneur Elisabeth Rioux gets unfiltered in this new reality series about her life. Follow the content creator, swimsuit label founder, and dedicated mother as she attempts to build her brand while still fulfilling her familial obligations. The glamour is real but so is the struggle, resulting in a series that’s more candid and authentic than the standard reality fare.
The Tragically Hip: No Dress Rehearsal
Release Date: 20 September 2024
Canadian rockers The Tragically Hip are still going after four decades and if we know anything about the music industry, we know that those four decades are filled with plenty of drama. This new docuseries brings their story to life using never-before-seen archival footage, rare concert performances, and other audio-visual goodies. Consider it the next best thing to a backstage pass.
