It returned Wednesday. DETAILS 'Cross' James Patterson's psychologist detective Alex Cross finally has his own thriller TV show. In "Cross," coming to Prime Video, Aldis Hodge stars as the charismatic and clever cop as he negotiates personal tragedy and brutal killings in Washington D.C. — helped by his bromance with fellow policeman John Sampson, played by Isaiah Mustafa. It premieres Thursday. DETAILS Jake Paul vs. Mike Tyson Mike Tyson squares up against YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul in a live fight happening Friday, Nov. 15 and streaming live on Netflix. "Jake Paul vs. Mike Tyson" was postponed in May after Tyson became nauseous and dizzy on a flight from Los Angeles in May. His representatives said it was due to an ulcer. Tyson, who is regarded as one of the greatest heavyweight boxers ever, is now 58 years old and Paul is 27. DETAILS 'Landman' "Yellowstone" may be airing its final episodes, but Taylor Sheridan has a new series debuting Sunday, Nov. 17 on Paramount+ called "Landman." It's based on the popular podcast "Boomtown" and described as an "Upstairs Downstairs" story about the world of oil rigs. It stars Billy Bob Thornton as a crisis manager for an oil company. Ali Larter, Jon Hamm and Demi Moore also have roles. DETAILS 'Deadpool & Wolverine' Anyone looking for an escape will find plenty of options on streaming. Some of the summer's biggest blockbusters will soon be in your living room, starting with "Deadpool & Wolverine," which is spicing up Disney+ this week. Ryan Reynolds, Hugh Jackman and director Shawn Levy went full throttle with the characters' first entry into the Marvel Cinematic Universe, with in-jokes, celebrity cameos and f-bombs galore. DETAILS 'Twisters' If you prefer your spectacles to be (sort of) more reality-based, "Twisters" storms Peacock on Friday, Nov. 15. The stand-alone follow-up to the 1996 movie "Twister" stars Glen Powell, Daisy Edgar-Jones and Anthony Ramos as a new generation of storm chasers making dangerous decisions in Oklahoma's Tornado Alley. Like so many great disaster movies before it, it's very silly and extremely watchable. DETAILS 'Thelma' One of the most crowd-pleasing movies of the year is also coming home: "Thelma," in which 94-year-old June Squibb plays a Los Angeles grandmother who gets scammed out of $10,000 and goes on a mission to get it back, with the late Richard Roundtree and his motorized scooter as her accomplice. It's streaming on Hulu starting Friday, Nov. 15. DETAILS 'Emilia Pérez' Awards season watchers will also get a chance to dive into the fantastical world of Jacques Audiard's "Emilia Pérez" when it hits Netflix on this week. A film that defies simple explanation, AP Film Writer Jake Coyle wrote around its Cannes debut that this "gonzo trans Mexican drug lord musical" is "probably the first movie that can sincerely be compared to both 'Sicario' and 'Mrs. Doubtfire.'" It stars Zoe Saldaña, Selena Gomez and breakout Karla Sofía Gascón. DETAILS 'I'll Be There'
