With January just over a week away, Prime Video is gearing up for the new year by preparing subscribers for its upcoming content releases. On Monday, the streaming service unveiled its complete lineup of movies and TV shows heading to its platform throughout January 2025, including several hits from 2024 migrating from rival services.
Starting January 1st, subscribers can stream A Quiet Place: Day One, the horror film prequel previously available on Paramount+. Following closely, January 2nd will see The Fall Guy added to the mix, after its departure from Peacock. This selection leads off what promises to be another exciting month for Prime Video.
The comprehensive list of additions begins with January 1, which will also include popular titles such as How to Get Away with Murder (seasons 1-6), Wild Cards (season 1), and several films like American Sniper, Bohemian Rhapsody, and Do the Right Thing.
On January 2nd, The Rig returns for its second season, after the series first launched on Prime Video back in January 2023. This supernatural drama, created by David Macpherson, was the first Prime Video original series fully filmed in Scotland. It follows the crew of the oil rig, who face mysterious challenges when engulfed by fog, cutting off communications and leading to strange occurrences among their ranks.
Continuing its January slate, on January 9, Prime Video will premiere the police procedural drama On Call, chronicling the lives of officers from the Long Beach Police Department. Delayed due to the 2023 Writers Guild of America strike, this show was initially slated for Amazon's Freevee service. On Call features eight episodes delving deep not only to the urgent emergencies the officers respond to, but also their personal struggles following the loss of one of their own.
Later, on January 23, Harlem will drop its third season, following the lives of four friends after graduating from NYU as they navigate adulthood and the challenges it presents. Originally debuting its first season December 2021, the show has received acclaim for its authentic storytelling and vibrant representation.
The exciting content for January doesn’t stop there. Other titles making their way to Prime Video include Molly Mae: Behind It All on January 16, The Liberation on January 17, and more. For parents, January 30 will introduce You're Cordially Invited, providing family-friendly viewing.
For cinema buffs, the complete list of movies and TV shows scheduled for January reads like a who's who of cinematic masterpieces:
- January 1: How to Get Away with Murder, A Quiet Place: Day One, American Sniper, Bohemian Rhapsody, and many more.
- January 2: The Rig (Season 2), The Fall Guy.
- January 9: On Call (Series Premiere).

Prime Video has steadily built its reputation amid tough competition from streaming giants like Netflix and Hulu. The addition of these popular films and series reflects Prime Video's strategy to continue to draw viewers by offering diverse and acclaimed content. With this January lineup, audiences have plenty to look forward to, whether they are fans of horror, comedy, or gripping drama.
The momentum heading toward 2025 looks strong for Prime Video, with not only these upcoming titles but also plans for even more exciting releases slated for February. It seems clear: the new year may very well usher another promising chapter for the service.
