Loosely inspired by the exploits of the real-world Outlaws Motorcycle Club, "The Bikeriders" is an oil-slick snapshot of 20th century American biker culture packed with Hollywood stars. Tom Hardy stars as Johnny David, the tough-as-nails biker who founded the Chicago-based Vandals Motorcycle Club. Set over a decade, "The Bikeriders" kicks off at the first meeting of Kathy (Jodie Comer) and Benny (Austin Butler), the beating heart of the Vandals, who convinces her to leave her old life behind. Tensions rise as the newest generation of Vandals start getting up to no good and threaten to bring the peaceful status quo crumbling down, forcing Johnny's hand.

Watch On

"Love, Actually" is one of the best Christmas rom-coms of all time, following several interconnected love stories across London in the run-up to the holiday. Its star-studded cast includes Liam Neeson, Hugh Grant, Laura Linney, Keira Knightly, Colin Firth, and Emma Thompson, just to name a few. It's heartwarming, cheesy, and full of feel-good moments and iconic scenes like Mark’s (Andrew Lincoln) heartfelt confession to Juliet (Keira Knightley) on her doorstep, and newly-elected Prime Minister David (Hugh Grant) joyfully dancing through the halls of 10 Downing Street.
