00:00Here's your breakdown of what to watch this Memorial Day weekend in THR's Now Screening.
00:05Need some binge-worthy content to fill your Memorial Day weekend while you're spending
00:08more time at home amid the COVID-19 pandemic? We've got you covered.
00:12Over on Netflix, check out The Lovebirds, starring Issa Rae and Kumail Nanjiani,
00:16which just hit the streaming platform.
00:18We know he's dead, but we didn't kill him.
00:20He's like tripped for a murder or whatever.
00:22We didn't murder anybody!
00:23One, two, three, go!
00:24Whoa!
00:25Jabron!
00:25Okay, the guy's name is Jabron?
00:27Run, Leilani!
00:27After being pulled from its April 3rd theatrical release amid growing concerns about the coronavirus,
00:33Paramount Pictures, The Lovebirds, is now available to stream.
00:36You just need to find the guy the police are looking for.
00:38Do you suggest we actually go out there and solve a murder?
00:42It's locked.
00:43Did you think it was one of those men-only doors?
00:46Directed by Michael Showalter, The Lovebirds follows a couple on the brink of a breakup.
00:50The pair subsequently become embroiled in a bizarre and hijinks-filled murder mystery.
00:56I'm gonna give you Lovebirds a choice.
00:57What's behind this door or bacon grease to the vice?
01:01I don't want grease on the vice.
01:04And starting Memorial Day, May 25th, you can watch Adam Sandler as you've never seen him
01:09before in A24's Uncut Gems on Netflix.
01:12Is it too late?
01:14I'm done.
01:15It means nothing.
01:16It meant nothing.
01:17Please.
01:19Give me another shot.
01:20His performance in the crime drama won Sandler Best Male Lead at this year's Independent Spirit Awards.
01:25I made a crazy risk.
01:27We gambled.
01:31It's about to pay off.
01:32Over on Amazon Prime Video, the new season of Homecoming starring Janelle Monae is now streaming.
01:44Everything all right, miss?
01:46What's your name?
01:48I don't know.
01:49The singer-songwriter and Moonlight actress takes the lead in the second season of Amazon's
01:53Homecoming, while original star Julia Roberts sits out the action this time around.
01:57Monae portrays a character adrift on a rowboat in a lake with no memory of who she is or how
02:02she got there.
02:03But she's destined to cross paths with a few familiar Homecoming faces.
02:06They're in charge here, whether we like it or not.
02:09And you like it.
02:11What was I doing?
02:13Why was I there?
02:14It's complicated.
02:14And if you still need more binge-worthy content to fill your Memorial Day weekend, a few buzzed
02:18about recent releases worth checking out include Hulu's period drama The Great, starring Elle
02:23Fanning and Nicholas Hoult.

02:28If the emperor dies, Russia goes to the empress.
02:31As well as Hulu's animated sci-fi comedy Solar Opposites, from Rick and Morty veterans Justin
02:35Roiland and Mike McMahan.
02:37Smarter than any man.
02:39Who knows what game of chess they're playing with us on?
02:42Oh, don't throw that out.
02:43I can sell it.
02:44It has an unstable gray hole inside.
02:46You're an unstable gray hole.
02:47Nice.
02:48Plus, if you're stuck inside but longing for a weekend getaway and some fun in the summer
02:52sun, escape with Netflix's treasure-hunting teen drama, Outer Banks.
02:56You guys ready to jack some loot?
