What’s new on Amazon Prime in October 2022!

Here is the monthly preview of upcoming Amazon Prime Video content for October 2022. Please be aware that this page essentially discusses original content rather than licensed fare, concentrating on well-known intellectual properties and highly anticipated movies and television episodes. Given the lack of complete details, we will update this post during the month to reflect any new information we obtain. Keep checking back for not just updates but also for links to our reviews and recaps of October’s offers, since here at Ready Steady Cut, and we provide the most extensive coverage of all streaming releases.

Among the highlights are the sci-fi series The Peripheral starring Chloe Grace Moretz and the drama The Devil’s Hour featuring Peter Capaldi and Nikesh Patel. Other new titles include Catherine Called Birdy, Hush Hush, and A Private Affair. Below, see the complete listing of what’s coming to Prime Video.

10. A Private Affair 

Produced by Bamb Producciones and helmed by Teresa Fernández-Valdés, A Private Affair is a Spanish period drama series on Netflix. It’s an eight-part murder mystery comedy-drama starring Aura Garrido and Jean Reno in 1940s Galicia. The daughter of the police commissioner, who is frustrated by the lack of opportunities for women in the department, witnesses a murder and decides to investigate it on her own.

9. Blacklight

Mark Williams helmed and co-wrote the action thriller Blacklight, released in 2022. Emmy Raver-Lampman, Taylor John Smith, and Aidan Quinn star in the film alongside Liam Neeson, who plays a brooding FBI agent drawn into a government conspiracy. Sofia Flores, a political activist, addresses a Washington, DC crowd on women’s and racial equality. That night, her opponents kill her in a hit-and-run outside her house after carefully planning the operation.

8. American Horror Story: Season 10

Season 10 of the F.X. horror anthology series American Horror Story, created by Ryan Murphy and Brad Falchuk, is titled Double Feature. The COVID-19 pandemic pushed back the premiere date, which had been set for late 2020. Red Tide is “by the sea,” while Death Valley is “by the sand,” making up the two halves of the season. Some critics hailed the premiere of Double Feature’s first part, Red Tide, as a welcome return to the series form, and the episode was met with widespread acclaim.

7. The Northman

Robert Eggers directed and co-wrote the script for the 2022 American epic historical action thriller film The Northman with Sjón. Alexander Skarsgard (who also produced), Nicole Kidman, Claes Bang, Anya Taylor-Joy, Ethan Hawke, Björk, and Willem Dafoe star in this film based on the legend of Amleth. Amleth, a Viking prince, embarks on a mission to seek revenge for his father’s death. Numerous elements from Norse mythology inspired the film.

6. Modern Love Tokyo 

The first trailer for Amazon Prime Video’s Modern Love Tokyo, the Japanese adaptation of the American live-action anthology series, has been released. Yamada, formerly of Kyoto Animation and now the director of The Heike Story, is responsible for the anime episode. Clips from this episode and the other six live-action adaptations are featured in the trailer.

5. The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power

The highly anticipated premiere of “the most expensive T.V. series ever made” (rumored to have a budget double that of the entire LOTR film trilogy) has finally arrived, and it comes with free two-day shipping. Filmed in New Zealand alongside Peter Jackson’s films, The Rings of Power is a prequel series that is not an adaptation of J.R.R. Tolkien’s books but instead depicts an original story set in the same world but occurring in the “Second Age,” many millennia before the events of The Hobbit, when Sauron forged the rings of power.

4. Catherine Called Birdy

Catherine Called Birdy, a film adaptation of Karen Cushman’s 1994 novel, will premiere in theatres in 2022. Lena Dunham directed the screenplay. Andrew Scott, Billie Piper, Joe Alwyn, Dean-Charles Chapman, Ralph Ineson, and Russell Brand play the film’s protagonist and antagonist, respectively. The daughter of a down-on-his-luck lord in medieval England manages to thwart her father’s plans to marry her to a wealthy suitor. The appearance of the most repulsive suitor imaginable tests the extent to which her parents love her.

3. Argentina, 1985 

The teaser for Argentina, 1985, directed by Santiago Mitre, has been posted on Prime Video. The film focuses on the most significant trial in Argentina in the 20th century. This film on the landmark Trial of the Juntas, which lasted for five months in 1985, just two years after the country’s violent military dictatorship was replaced by democracy, was directed by Mitre, who also created the screenplay with Mariano Llinás. In a distant future where technology has slowly transformed society, a young woman learns of a mysterious connection between her grim fate and that of another world.

2. The Peripheral

Scott Smith is the showrunner, creator, and executive producer of the upcoming American science fiction web series The Peripheral. The Amazon original series is based on William Gibson’s 2014 novel of the same name. Smith would serve as creator, showrunner, and executive producer for the proposed series. Natali will direct the pilot episode. A new showrunner, Greg Plageman, took over for Smith on March 30, 2021, and he was brought on board as an executive producer. Plans are underway for a second season.

1. Run Sweetheart Run

Director Shana Feste is at the helm of the upcoming American thriller film Run Sweetheart Run, set for release in 2020. Friends and coworkers of Cherie (Ella Balinska), a shy but hardworking single mother, encourage her to return to the dating scene. When her boss sets her up on a blind date with the handsome and charming Ethan, she is overjoyed (Pilou Asbaek). Cherie must figure out a way to escape when things take a dangerous turn and Ethan can no longer conceal his true nature. Cherie’s long day exploring Los Angeles reveals that Ethan is more assertive and well-connected than she had.
