New shows and movies arriving this month

Paramount+ adds new content throughout June 2025, with releases spread across the first three weeks of the month. The platform is releasing a mix of original series, returning seasons, films, and library titles — so there's something new to watch almost every few days if you're a regular viewer.

The biggest releases this month are the second season of a major drama series and several films that move to the service from theatrical release. Most new originals land on Thursdays, though some films and library content arrive on other days of the week.

To find out exactly what's arriving and when, check Paramount+'s "Coming Soon" section or search for specific titles you're interested in. The platform updates its release calendar regularly, so you can plan your viewing week by week rather than waiting for surprises.

Key Takeaways

  • Paramount+ releases new content throughout June, with most original series episodes dropping on Thursdays between 3 a.m. and 6 a.m. Eastern Time.
  • Check the specific date each title arrives, since release dates vary by week and some content may not be available on your first day of the month.
  • New seasons of returning shows typically release all episodes at once or on a weekly schedule — the platform's release pattern varies by series.
  • Films that were in theaters earlier in the year often arrive on streaming services 45 to 90 days after their theatrical release date.
  • You can add shows and movies to your watchlist before they arrive, and Paramount+ will notify you when they become available.

How to find new releases on the platform

Paramount+ has a "New & Popular" section on its home screen that updates daily. You can also sort by "Recently Added" to see what arrived in the last few days, which is faster than scrolling through the full catalog.

If you're looking for a specific show or movie you heard about, use the search bar at the top of the app or website. Type the title and the platform will show you the release date if it hasn't arrived yet, or let you start watching when ready if it has.

The "Coming Soon" section is your best tool for planning ahead. Open it at the start of each week to see everything arriving in the next seven days, so you won't miss releases you're waiting for.

When new episodes drop each week

Paramount+ typically releases new episodes of its original series on Thursday mornings, though the exact time varies slightly by time zone. Episodes usually become available between 3 a.m. and 6 a.m. Eastern Time, so they're ready to watch when you wake up.

Some shows release all episodes of a new season at once on the first Thursday, while others release one episode per week. The platform's page for each series will tell you which pattern applies — look for "New episodes weekly" or "All episodes available now" in the show description.

If you're in a different time zone, add a few hours to the Eastern Time window to figure out when episodes will arrive for you. West Coast viewers typically see new releases by 12 a.m. or 1 a.m. Pacific Time.

Movies and films arriving in June

Paramount+ receives theatrical films from Paramount Pictures and other studios on a rotating schedule. Most films arrive 45 to 90 days after they leave theaters, though some arrive sooner if they had a shorter theatrical run.

The exact titles and dates for June 2025 depend on which films were released in theaters in March and April 2025. Check the "Movies" section of Paramount+ or search for specific titles you're interested in to see their arrival dates.

Paramount Pictures films typically arrive faster than films from other studios because Paramount owns both the studio and the streaming service. Films from other major studios may take longer to appear on Paramount+ due to licensing agreements that give other streaming services first access.

Library content and catalog additions

Beyond original series and new films, Paramount+ adds older movies and TV shows from its library throughout the month. These are titles that were already owned by Paramount but weren't previously on the streaming service. They don't get the same promotion as new originals, but they show up in the "Recently Added" section.

Library additions often include classic films, older seasons of long-running shows, and content from other networks that Paramount owns — like MTV, Comedy Central, and Nickelodeon. If you're looking for a specific older title, search for it directly rather than browsing, since these additions can be straightforward to miss.

These library titles rotate on and off the service depending on licensing agreements, so a show you saw last month might not be available in June. If you find something you want to watch, start it soon rather than saving it for later.

How to plan your viewing

If you want to stay on top of what's new, check Paramount+'s "Coming Soon" section at the start of each week. This shows you everything arriving in the next seven days, so you can plan what to watch without being surprised by a release you missed.

You can also add shows and movies to your watchlist before they arrive. Open the title's page and select "Add to Watchlist" — the platform will notify you when it becomes available, and it will appear at the top of your profile when you log in.

Consider setting a phone reminder for Thursday mornings if there's a show you don't want to miss. Since episodes drop early in the morning, a reminder helps you catch them before your day gets busy.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to pay extra to watch new releases on Paramount+?

No. All new original series, films, and library content included on Paramount+ are part of your regular subscription. There are no additional fees for new releases, though some titles may only be available on the higher-tier ad-free plan depending on licensing agreements.

Can I watch new episodes the day they arrive?

Yes, if the show releases all episodes at once. If the show releases weekly, you'll get one new episode each Thursday. Check the show's page to see which pattern it follows before you start watching.

What if a movie or show I want isn't on the June schedule?

You can search for it on Paramount+ to see if it's already available or when it might arrive. If it's not scheduled for June, it may come later in the year or may not be available on Paramount+ at all — some titles are licensed to other streaming services instead.

Why do some movies take longer to arrive than others?

Streaming rights are negotiated separately for each film. Some studios have deals that keep their movies exclusive to theaters for a longer period, while others allow streaming sooner. Paramount Pictures films typically arrive faster than films from other studios.

How do I know if a show releases weekly or all at once?

Check the show's main page on Paramount+ — it will say "New episodes weekly" or "All episodes available now" in the description. You can also look at the episode list; if only one episode is listed, it's a weekly release, and more will appear each Thursday.
