3 new to Paramount+ movies you need to stream this weekend (Sept. 4-6)

This weekend, Paramount+ offers three must-watch movies for your streaming marathon. First, catch the brand-new horror comedy "Scary Movie" (2026), a parody of the original series. Starring Anna Faris, Shawn Wayans, Marlon Wayans, and Regina Hall, it follows Cindy Campbell and her friends as they face a masked killer from the first "Scary Movie".

Although not a masterpiece, its recent addition to Paramount+ makes it worth watching. Next, dive into the gripping political thriller "Argo" (2012), set in 1979 during the Iranian hostage crisis. CIA officer Tony Mendez (Ben Affleck) crafts a fake movie production to help six Americans escape Iran as Canadian filmmakers. Affleck's direction and acting are top-notch, making "Argo" a rewatchable gem.

Finally, don't miss the iconic war film "Dunkirk" (2017), which tells the true story of British evacuation from France through three timelines: soldiers on the beaches, a fleet of civilian boats, and Spitfire pilots providing air support. Christopher Nolan's masterpiece features stunning visuals and sound design, with Tom Hardy giving a standout performance.

All three films are available on Paramount+ now, so grab your popcorn and enjoy a weekend of cinematic delights.
