Prime Video is a top streaming service, and its TV shows in 2026 are already generating a lot of buzz. Many of the best shows on Prime Video have consistently received high praise from both critics and viewers. A particularly popular example is The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power.
While there’s a possibility The Rings of Power could premiere in 2026, its release date isn’t confirmed and it might not arrive until early 2027. The same is true for the upcoming God of War series on Prime Video – even though it’s been in the works for some time, it’s not expected to be released in 2026 either.
The upcoming Tomb Raider series on Prime Video is highly anticipated, but it probably won’t be available until after 2026. However, Prime Video does have several other shows planned for release within the next year, making it a promising time for subscribers.
Steal
Prime Video is launching 2026 with a new series called Steal, a thrilling heist story that will be available to stream in its entirety on January 21st. Starring Sophie Turner, known for her role in Game of Thrones, Steal promises plenty of excitement and entertainment.
After Game of Thrones, Sophie Turner’s career got a significant lift when critics praised her work on the crime series Joan. That makes her new role in Steal, another crime show, particularly appealing. With Turner also set to star in Tomb Raider for Prime Video, Steal feels like a great preview of what’s to come, arriving in early 2026.
Young Sherlock
Guy Ritchie’s Sherlock Holmes films were among the most entertaining detective movies released in the late 2000s and early 2010s. Now, in 2026, he’s revisiting the detective’s world with a new series, Young Sherlock, coming to Prime Video. Hero Fiennes Tiffin, who previously worked with Ritchie on The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare, will play the young detective.
This new series offers a fresh perspective on Sherlock Holmes, showing him as a student at Oxford University solving a murder – the case that launches his career as the world’s greatest detective. Given director Ritchie’s knack for energetic and entertaining films, including his work on the Sherlock Holmes movies, Young Sherlock promises to be a thrilling addition to Prime Video’s lineup in 2026.
Cross Season 2
The detective show Cross had a good first season, featuring a compelling performance by Aldis Hodge and exploring relevant issues. Season 2 premieres on February 11, 2026, and we’re hoping it will be even better. The first season was enjoyable, but shows often build on their success and improve with each new installment.
If the creators of Cross repeat their initial success with even greater assurance, it could be another strong launch for Prime Video in 2026.
Scarpetta
Scheduled for release on Prime Video in early 2026, Scarpetta is a new mystery series joining shows like Cross and Young Sherlock. Starring Nicole Kidman, the series is already generating excitement. Adding to its potential, Scarpetta is being developed by Liz Sarnoff, a writer known for her work on critically acclaimed television shows.
Carlton Cuse was a key writer for the hit show LOST, contributing to some of its most popular episodes. More recently, he worked on the critically acclaimed crime drama Barry. Now, keep an eye out for Scarpetta on Prime Video in 2026, scheduled to premiere on March 11th.
Deadloch Season 2
Season one of Deadloch earned a perfect 100% rating on Rotten Tomatoes, praised for its witty and unconventional mystery. Because of this success, there’s a lot of excitement for season two. If it can maintain the same cleverness and engaging storytelling as Cross while presenting a new, compelling mystery, Deadloch is shaping up to be a standout show on Prime Video in 2026.
The Boys Season 5
Many consider The Boys to be one of the best superhero TV shows of the last decade. That’s why fans are eagerly awaiting season 5, which is set to premiere on Prime Video in 2026. Adding to the anticipation, season 5 will also be the show’s finale.
Show finales always get a lot of attention, whether it’s because they’re hard to get right or because they spark debate when they don’t live up to expectations. Given how popular The Boys has become since it premiered in 2019, everyone’s already thinking about how the series will end. However it wraps up, season 5 is shaping up to be one of the most anticipated TV shows on Prime Video in 2026.
Invincible Season 4
Both the upcoming fifth season of The Boys and the fourth season of Invincible are highly anticipated, and for good reason. Both shows stand out in the superhero genre with their mature themes and clever, self-aware humor. They’re a bit grittier than typical superhero content, like Marvel’s shows, and share a similar tone, making them a perfect fit for fans on Prime Video.
Everyone loved season 3 of Invincible, and now fans are eagerly awaiting season 4. It’s scheduled to premiere on Prime Video in March 2026.
Blade Runner 2099
Fans of Blade Runner can look forward to a new installment in 2026! Prime Video is creating Blade Runner 2099, the first live-action television series in the franchise. Starring Michelle Yeoh and Hunter Schafer, the show promises to bring a fresh take on this beloved cyberpunk world.
Adding to the anticipation, a TV series might be exactly what the Blade Runner franchise needs. While the two Blade Runner movies were critically acclaimed, they weren’t big box office successes. Blade Runner 2099 could use the TV format to reach a wider audience and build a stronger fanbase for the series.
With the backing of Prime Video’s knack for creating large-scale, ongoing TV series, Blade Runner 2099 is shaping up to be one of the most anticipated shows of 2026.
Spider-Noir
Prime Video is adding another superhero series in 2026: Spider-Noir. Based on the Marvel Comics character and appearing in Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, this show will be a unique take on the Spider-Man formula. Instead of the usual modern setting, Spider-Noir is a period drama taking place in 1930s New York City, starring Nicolas Cage. It blends the excitement of a superhero story with the intrigue of a mystery crime thriller.
Everything suggests that Spider-Noir will be a truly original and, therefore, very promising show. Produced by Phil Lord, Chris Miller, and Oren Uziel – who have worked together before – Spider-Noir stands out as one of the most different shows coming to Prime Video in 2026, and that’s generating a lot of hopeful anticipation.
Batman: Caped Crusader Season 2
Fans of DC Comics can look forward to the second season of Batman: Caped Crusader arriving on Prime Video in 2026. The first season received great reviews for its dark and stylish take on the Batman story, and the next season is expected to continue that successful approach, making it a highly anticipated release for Prime Video in 2026.
