3 new to Prime Video thriller movies to watch this week — including a classic heist caper that’s being remade with Michael B. Jordan (Aug. 18-24)
This week's selection of new to Prime Video thrillers includes one of 2026's most acclaimed movies that you (probably) haven't watched.
Three new thriller movies on Prime Video are set to captivate audiences this week. The standout release is "Is God Is," a darkly comedic revenge story about twin sisters seeking vengeance on their estranged father. The film, which received a near-perfect 97% score on Rotten Tomatoes, is now streaming on Prime Video starting August 19.
"90s classics" being remade also grace the platform. Jean-Claude Van Damme's return to the screen is featured in "Sudden Death," an action-thriller set in the world of professional hockey. Van Damme, reprising his role as Darren McCord, plays a fire marshal tasked with stopping a terrorist plot to blow up the Pittsburgh Penguins' arena.
Lastly, "The Thomas Crown Affair" from 1999 is part of Prime Video's latest offerings. The heist caper, starring Pierce Brosnan as the titular character, offers a romantic twist on the classic story. The film, a precursor to the upcoming Michael B. Jordan-led remake, is now available for viewers to enjoy.
