“Love & Death” (TV-MA) – Candy Montgomery is a Texan housewife who has always craved more out of life than the ordinary woman. So, she decides to take a risk and start having an affair with another married townie named Allan. They vow not to let their spouses find out, going to great lengths to cover up their rendezvousing. That is, until one day, when news rings out over town about the gruesome death of Allan’s wife, Betty. Now, as the investigation surrounding Betty’s murder begins, Candy must deal with the repercussions of her affair and the accusations that she was the one who committed this monstruous act. Elizabeth Olsen (“WandaVison”) and Jesse Plemons (“The Power of the Dog”) star in this miniseries based on a true story. The first episode premieres April 27. (HBO Max)
“Peter Pan & Wendy” (PG) – The live-action adaptation of Walt Disney’s 1953 “Peter Pan” hits Disney’s streaming platform on April 28! Alexander Molony portrays “the boy who wouldn’t grow up” in his very first film debut, while Ever Anderson (“Black Widow”) nabbed the role of Wendy. Those who love Peter Pan’s story know that an adventure to Neverland would never be complete without characters like the Lost Boys, Tiger Lily and, of course, Captain Hook – who is played by an almost unrecognizable Jude Law. Whether the film will be received well by audiences remains to be seen, as many fans are sounding off about the live-action remakes Disney continues to shovel out to no avail. Maybe it’s time to mix it up? (Disney+)

So, the two partner up together to remember their past, the spies they once were and the secret espionage organization they were in, called Citadel. Premieres April 28. (Prime Video)
