A WWE Premium Live Event (PLE) is heading to Lyon Metropolis for the first time for WWE Backlash France 2024. Since the formation of TKO in September 2023, WWE has prioritized global expansion. In 2024, Backlash France is the second PLE to be held outside the U.S., and it won’t be the last. Five of the next six WWE PLEs will take place outside the U.S.

Heading into Backlash, WWE is entering the “American Nightmare Era.” After finishing his story at WrestleMania 40, Cody Rhodes is now the Undisputed WWE Champion. A different era means a new crop of challengers for Rhodes. First up is AJ Styles, a former two-time WWE champion. Rhodes must bring his A-game if he wants to walk out of France as champion.

What’s new on Netflix and what’s leaving in November 2024
A group of karate students stand together.

With only two months left in 2024, Netlifx is closing out the year with a bang in November. Of course it helps that Netflix has two prominent originals back with new episodes, including Cobra Kai season 6, part 2, as well as Arcane season 2, which will be split into three acts throughout the month.

There aren't as many new movies as usual in November, but Netflix is adding the first six Fast and Furious films, as well as The Whale, Oblivion, Whiplash, Focus, The Lost City, and Superbad. But knowing Netflix, some unheralded action flick will rise to the top of the movie rankings before the end of the month. You can almost set your clocks by it.

The 50 best movies on Netflix right now (November 2024)

Netflix has a pair of original films in the top two slots of the list of the most popular movies on the streamer: Don't Move and Time Cut. The former is better than the latter, but you won't hear Netflix complaining about having two homegrown hits to kick off the month of November. They both qualify as horror films too, although they take very different approaches to the genre.

Thankfully, there are still a lot of other options, including the family-friendly animated flick, Kung Fu Panda 4, as well as Woman of the Hour, Bad Boys: Ride or Die, and A Quiet Place Part II. Netflix has a particularly strong lineup of movies on loan from other studios at the moment, so enjoy it while it lasts. But if you need more options, check out our list of the best movies on Netflix right now. There's something here for everyone, and we update this list every Friday.

The best movies on Amazon Prime Video (November 2024)
Mark Wahlberg in Infinite.

Amazon Prime Video is turning over a new leaf in November. Or at least turning over its movie library. Many movies left Prime Video at the end of October, but new additions have arrived, including The Godfather, one of the all-time classics. Meanwhile, Infinite, a little-seen action film starring Mark Wahlberg, has suddenly found its audience on Prime Video. It's been the No. 1 movie on the streamer for almost two weeks now, which is impressive for a film that skipped theaters. Usually, it's Netflix that makes random action flicks into hits.

Last week's additions, Canary Black and Monkey Man, are still streaming for the action fans in your life. But if you still want some scares after Halloween, Terrifier 2, Constantine, and 10 Cloverfield Lane are sticking around through the end of the month. You can find these films and more among the best movies on Amazon Prime Video right now. We update this list every Friday morning so you can stay on top of the newest arrivals.
