10 Best New Movies on Peacock Include Malkovich and Spider-Man
ScreenRant says peacock is adding several dozen new movies in June 2026, and it narrowed that batch to 10 films worth prioritizing. The list leans on Universal’s library, so the streamer’s June slate mixes prestige picks with franchise titles that already have built-in familiarity.
June 1 Brings Malkovich
Being John Malkovich arrives on June 1, 2026, giving the month an immediate headliner. Written by Charlie Kaufman, the film follows a puppeteer who takes a temp office job and finds a portal into the mind of John Malkovich, a premise that still sets it apart from the usual catalog filler.
Peacock’s advantage here is breadth. The service is described as the streaming home for NBC’s TV series, but it also has the entire Universal filmography to draw from, which is why several of Universal’s biggest franchises are part of the June 2026 rollout.
Chinatown and Nicholson
Chinatown is another June addition, and it brings Jack Nicholson back into a title that has long outlived the moment it first arrived. Nicholson plays a 1930s private investigator in Los Angeles who is hired to investigate a powerful man, which gives Peacock another recognizable film built around a major star and a clean hook.
The presence of Chinatown alongside Being John Malkovich shows how Peacock is using June to balance cult appeal with catalog prestige. That matters for viewers who use a streaming library the way a programmer would use a repertory slate: one title pulls in the curious, the other keeps the menu from looking disposable.
Spider-Man Enters the Batch
Spider-Man: Homecoming lands on Peacock in June 2026 and adds the month’s most obvious franchise draw. The film follows Peter Parker as he balances high school with his newfound powers, and it introduces Vulture as his first foe, which gives the lineup a superhero entry with a clear starting point rather than a deep-continuity puzzle.
Several dozen new movies are coming to Peacock in June 2026, but only 10 made ScreenRant’s best-of cut. That separation is the useful part for subscribers: the platform is not just filling space, it is surfacing a short list from a larger pile, and the shortlist is built around titles with recognizable names, proven IP, and one June 1 launch that lands early in the month.
