It’s almost June, and Prime Video has its new monthly line-up of awesome entertainment all “primed” and ready to go.
Tear up with laughter or sadness, experience the thrill of exhilarating action, and be moved by inspiring stories with these top six picks from Prime Video in June.
Marlon Wayans: Good Grief (4th June)
“Marlon Wayans: Good Grief” showcases Wayans’s unique brand of comedy, blending physical humour and hilarious commentary with a surprising amount of heart. Taped at the iconic Apollo Theatre in Harlem, comedy meets therapy as Wayans works through his grief after recently losing both of his parents.
He shares how his father taught him to be a man, the requirements to join the “Dead Mama Club,” the surprises you encounter when changing your ageing parents’ diapers, and who the funniest Wayans are.
The Boys Season 4 (13th June)
The world is on the brink. Victoria Neuman is closer than ever to the Oval Office and under the muscly thumb of Homelander, who is consolidating his power. Butcher, with only months to live, has lost Becca’s son as well as his job as The Boys’ leader. The rest of the team is fed up with his lies. With the stakes higher than ever, they have to find a way to work together and save the world before it’s too late.
“The Boys” is a fun and irreverent take on what happens when superheroes – who are as popular as celebrities, as influential as politicians, and as revered as gods – abuse their superpowers rather than use them for good. Intent on stopping the corrupt superheroes, The Boys, a group of vigilantes, continue their heroic quest to expose the truth about The Seven and Vought – the multibillion-dollar conglomerate that manages the superheroes and covers up their dirty secrets. It’s seemingly powerless against the super powerful.
Melting Me Softly (13th June)
Ma Dong Chan, a renowned producer in the entertainment industry, and Go Mi Ran, a part-timer struggling with family debts, took part in a 24-hour freezing project. Things don’t go as expected and they wake up from the frozen capsule 20 years later instead of 24 hours. To survive the side effects of their cryogenic sleep, they must adhere to strict guidelines to maintain their body temperature at 31.5°C and keep their heart rates normal. As their love grows, their lives are in danger. Now, they must uncover the secret behind the experiment to survive and be together.

And if the child in the womb is a psychopath, will it be wise to have that child?
