From real-life Football stories, to a young spy (Alex Rider!), Season 4 of This is Us, and the full adventures of Marty McFly – here are the TV programmes and movies that are coming to Amazon’s streaming video service in June.
Amazon Prime Video (read our review of it here), the streaming service from the US giant, has films, TV shows and original productions, and can be had by either getting an annual Amazon Prime subscription (which currently costs £79/year) or with a stand-alone, monthly subscription.
If you’re not a member yet, you can get a free trial for 30 days, either to the full Amazon Prime service, or just for Prime Video.
Additional titles might get added at a later date – but these are the main highlights for June (you can find May’s newcomers here).
