Your favorite streaming services are looking out for the Oscar lovers.
Best picture contenders "Hamnet" and "The Secret Agent," plus screenplay nominee "It Was Just an Accident," are now available to catch up on from your couch before the March 15 Academy Awards. Netflix, Hulu, HBO Max, Amazon's Prime Video and more are keeping everybody entertained, though. There are theatrical releases that have finally come home, like a Dave Bautista action flick and a goofy "Downton Abbey" satire, but also original fare like a sci-fi thriller pitting Alan Ritchson vs. a cosmic wrecking machine.
Here are 10 new and notable movies you can stream right now:
'The Bluff'
Priyanka Chopra Jonas plays a Caribbean woman who runs afoul of pirates in the action movie "The Bluff."
It's very clear, by the way she wrecks a whole bunch of buccaneers, that Priyanka Chopra Jonas is firmly entrenched in her action-heroine era. In this action-packed and gory pirate tale, Ercell (Jones) is a Caribbean woman living in paradise until a ruthless captain (Karl Urban) she knows from way back shows up seeking gold and revenge.
Where to watch: Prime Video
'Fackham Hall'
The incestuous Davenport family and their servants are at the heart of the "Downton Abbey" spoof "Fackham Hall."
An "Airplane!" spin on "Downton Abbey" you didn't know you needed. This hilariously daffy spoof follows the aristocratic but incestuous Davenport family in 1930s England as daughter Rose (Thomasin McKenzie) is torn between marrying cousin Archibald (Tom Felton) to save their home or being with pickpocket-turned-servant Eric (Ben Radcliffe).
Where to watch: HBO Max
'Hamnet'
William (Paul Mescal, left) shares a joyful moment with wife Agnes (Jessie Buckley), daughter Susanna (Bodhi Rae Breathnach) and their twins in "Hamnet."
Prepare to be an emotional wreck by the end of Chloé Zhao's heartfelt look at William Shakespeare's family life. Jessie Buckley plays wife Agnes, who raises the kids while Will (Paul Mescal) works in London. Tragedy leads to disconnection between the two, but ultimately also to the creation of "Hamlet" and different ways of dealing with grief.

'In the Blink of an Eye'
Kate McKinnon (left) and Yeji Kim star in "In the Blink of an Eye," a sci-fi drama featuring three stories that explore themes of humanity and connection across thousands of years.
Longtime Pixar director Andrew Stanton ("Finding Nemo," "WALL-E") turns to live-action with this ambitious sci-fi drama. The film tells three connected stories of human resilience told across millennia, centering on a caveman family, a modern-day couple (Daveed Diggs and Rashida Jones) and an astronaut (Kate McKinnon) in the far-flung future.

'It Was Just an Accident'
Vahid Mobasseri plays a mechanic and former Iranian political prisoner who kidnaps his former torturer in the genre-mashing thriller "It Was Just an Accident."
Jafar Panahi's thriller is an unforgettable juggling of serious moral questions and clever screwball comedy. A mechanic (Vahid Mobasseri) accidentally runs into and then kidnaps a man (Ebrahim Azizi) he believes was his torturer in an Iranian jail, then brings in other political prisoners to figure out what to do about him in a breathtaking modern fable.

'Kiss of the Spider Woman'

They pass the time in jail with the story of an old film, a movie-within-the-movie featuring Jennifer Lopez in dual roles as a fashion editor in love and the mysterious Spider Woman.

'Paul McCartney: Man on the Run'
The documentary "Man on the Run" chronicles Paul McCartney's musical life after The Beatles, including writing songs with wife Linda.
How do you follow being part of the biggest band in the world? Director Morgan Neville ("Won't You Be My Neighbor?") tackles the post-Beatles life of Paul McCartney. The movie digs into the Fab Four breakup, McCartney starting the group Wings with wife Linda, but also him dealing with his Beatles legacy and relationship with John Lennon.
