What’s new on Amazon Prime Video in August 2023
A woman hides from a bear in Cocaine Bear.

Amazon Prime Video doesn't always tout it, but the streamer's deals with Paramount and Universal Pictures mean that some of this year's theatrical releases are coming to Prime Video after brief runs on Paramount+ and Peacock. This month, that applies to the sleeper hit, Cocaine Bear, and the surprisingly well-executed Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves. If that's not enough, Prime Video is also adding a number of recent films and classic movies early in August including Amadeus, Galaxy Quest, Women Talking, and more.

Intriguingly, Prime Video is also adding '80s TV hits LA Law and Matlock early in August. And near the end of the month, NFL fans can celebrate the return of Thursday Night Football. Additionally, the new seasons of The Summer I Turned Pretty and Good Omens. will continue throughout the month.

What’s new on Paramount+ in August 2023
The four TMNT brothers enjoy a lighter moment in Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.

Depending upon which tier you subscribe to, Paramount+ can be a very different experience. The standard tier is the Paramount+ that you remember, including original shows and classic movies interrupted by commercials. The highest tier, Paramount+ with Showtime, offers more movies and more original shows, including the seventh season of the acclaimed Showtime series, The Chi and Billions. But if you want more, you'll have to pay more.

All tiers of Paramount+ will get to stream films like Gone Baby Gone, Rudy, Sicario, The Running Man, and The Truman Show. Additionally, since Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem is coming to theaters in August, Paramount+ is bringing the first three live-action films and the first TMNT animated movie back to streaming.

What’s new on Peacock in August 2023
Luigi and Mario looking at the camera with unamused expressions in The Super Mario Bros. Movie.

This month, Peacock welcomes the highest-grossing box office hit of the year: The Super Mario Bros. Movie. Almost everyone expected Illumination and Nintendo to deliver an animated hit, but so far, nothing else has come close to bringing people back to theaters week after week. That's why the addition of this film is one of Peacock's biggest moments of 2023. And that's just the beginning of August!

Peacock is also adding a number of films to its library, including The Northman, Downton Abbey: A New Era, Minions, National Lampoon’s Animal House, Scott Pilgrim vs. the World, and There’s Something About Mary. And if you love sports, Peacock is streaming events almost every day of the month and it is also continuing its coverage of the Women's World Cup of Soccer.
