![](https://blog.flicks.co.nz/wp-content/uploads/murd2.jpg)
Each month, new films and TV shows are added to Disney+‘s UK library. Here’s Eliza Janssen’s recommendations for the titles most worth watching. Scroll down for the full list of everything arriving on the platform.
Top picks
The Supremes at Earl’s All-You-Can-Eat (August 23)
You might not hear “You Keep Me Hangin’ On” or “Love Child” in this sweet hangout film, but you’ll certainly get to enjoy three strong characters trying to sink back into their perfect harmony. Sanaa Lathan, Uzo Aduba, and Aunjanue Ellis-Taylor play lifelong friends who have weathered love, loss, and regret together, and who now—in their middle age—find their bond tested more than ever before. Facing each other at a dinky diner, the characters should make you keen to text that mate you haven’t caught up with in ages. Or to bust out some Motown hits.
Only Murders in the Building: Season 4 (August 27)
“Now a major murder picture”, the latest season of this sweet and starry comedy series heads to Hollywood, where our trio of unlikely podcasting buddies are seeing their story get adapted into a feature film. Meryl Streep, hilariously cast as a bad actress in season three, is back, plus new famous faces Zach Galafianakis, Molly Shannon, Eugene Levy and Eva Longoria—but nothing can beat the chemistry of the show’s triple act, Martin, Short, and Gomez. Bizarrely, Only Murders has somehow wound up inhabiting a niche of its own when it comes to contemporary comedy TV; grown-up but not too stuffy, broad but specific in its characterisations.
