Apple TV has confirmed that the sixth season will consist of six episodes. The first episode will premiere on September 16, followed by a new episode each week through October 21. The returning cast includes Gary Oldman, Jack Lowden and Olivia Cooke.

Netflix is adding another instalment to Ryan Murphy's Monster anthology with Monster The Lizzie Borden Story. The series revisits the case of Lizzie Borden, who was accused of murdering her father and stepmother in Massachusetts in 1892.
The production is presented as a dramatic interpretation of the historical case rather than a documentary account. Ella Beatty takes the lead role as Lizzie Borden, with Rebecca Hall, Vicky Krieps and Charlie Hunnam also appearing in the cast.
The series continues the Monster anthology's focus on notorious criminal cases and controversial figures. The historical subject provides the basis for a new examination of the events, people and circumstances surrounding one of America's best-known nineteenth century murder cases.

Lust Stories 3 is another major Indian release arriving on Netflix this week. The third instalment of the anthology franchise brings together four filmmakers, Vikramaditya Motwane, Kiran Rao, Shakun Batra and Vishal Bhardwaj.
The anthology explores different aspects of relationships, love, desire and human emotions through four separate stories. The cast includes Radhika Apte, Konkona Sen Sharma, Aditi Rao Hydari, Vijay Varma, Abhishek Banerjee, Siddharth and Ali Fazal, among others.
The franchise has previously attracted attention for bringing established filmmakers and actors together in an anthology format. The third instalment continues that approach with new characters and independent narratives.

Neagley expands the world of the Reacher franchise with a series centred on Frances Neagley, the former military investigator played by Maria Sten.
The character has appeared in the Reacher universe before, and the new series gives her a separate storyline. The plot follows Neagley as she investigates the suspicious death of a former friend. Her investigation leads her toward a larger mystery involving a potentially dangerous organisation.
The series provides another entry point into the action and investigation-driven world established by Reacher. Maria Sten returns to the role, giving the character a more central position in the new production.
For viewers who have followed the Reacher franchise, Neagley offers an opportunity to explore a character who previously operated alongside Jack Reacher while developing an independent narrative.

The story revolves around an investigation that begins with an apparent ticketing fraud and gradually develops into a larger case. The series combines crime, investigation and drama while examining the people involved in the alleged scam.
Its premise gives the show a contemporary setting connected to India's railway system, while the investigation provides the central narrative. The presence of Divyenndu Sharma and Bhuvan Arora adds further interest for viewers following Indian streaming productions.

The story focuses on friendship, ambition and competition as the two characters enter a demanding dance environment. Hasan Minhaj and Ankur Rathee are also part of the cast.
The film adds a youth oriented dance drama to Netflix's September lineup and offers a different tone from the crime, thriller and horror titles arriving during the same period.

September 19, 2026 in India
MobLand returns for its second season with Tom Hardy, Pierce Brosnan and Helen Mirren leading the crime drama's central cast. The series follows Harry Da Souza, played by Hardy, who works as a fixer for the Harrigan crime family.

Papa Yaar
Where to watch
Netflix
Release date
September 18, 2026
Comedian Zakir Khan returns to Netflix with Papa Yaar, his latest comedy special. The special adds a stand up comedy option to a week otherwise dominated by returning dramas, crime stories and anthology productions.
Zakir Khan has developed a large audience through his distinctive storytelling style and comedy performances. Papa Yaar continues his association with Netflix and gives viewers a lighter option among the week's new releases.
The week's OTT lineup offers considerable variety for Indian viewers. Audiences interested in international television can choose Slow Horses Season 6, Monster The Lizzie Borden Story or MobLand Season 2. Fans of established Indian franchises have Lust Stories 3, while viewers interested in action and crime can explore Neagley and Waiting Hai.
The schedule also demonstrates how streaming platforms are increasingly using different formats to reach audiences. Established franchises are returning with new seasons, while spin offs are giving popular supporting characters their own stories. Anthology productions continue to provide filmmakers with opportunities to present several narratives within a single project.
The September 14 to 20 release window is therefore one of the more varied OTT weeks of the month. With new content spread across Netflix, Apple TV, Prime Video and JioHotstar, viewers have options across multiple genres and languages.
Release dates and availability can vary by country and platform, particularly for international titles. Indian viewers should check the relevant streaming service for the final availability and release timing in their region.
