Jennifer Lawrence playing a new mother whose behavior becomes increasingly erratic in ''Die My Love" and three more ''Stranger Things'' episodes are some of the new television, films, music and games headed to a device near you.
Also among the streaming offerings worth your time this week, as selected by The Associated Press' entertainment journalists: Disney Parks Magical Christmas Day Parade featuring Gwen Stefani and Nicole Scherzinger, the Chinese animated epic ''Ne Zha II" and Simu Liu starring as an intelligence analyst whose brain has been hacked in Peacock's ''The Copenhagen Test.''
New movies to stream from Dec. 22-28
— Jennifer Lawrence plays a new mother whose behavior becomes increasingly erratic in Lynne Ramsay's ''Die My Love,'' streaming on Mubi on Dec. 23. Robert Pattinson plays her husband in this story adapted from Ariana Harwicz's novel. In his review for The Associated Press, Film Writer Jake Coyle wrote called it ''a jagged, go-for-broke psychodrama'' raging with a ''primal punk spirit.'' He added, ''there's plenty to admire in Ramsay's uncompromising and delirious portrait of marital hell, particularly in the bracingly raw performance of Lawrence.''
— The Chinese animated epic ''Ne Zha II,'' which is the highest grossing animated movie of all time with over $2.2 billion in ticket sales, is coming to HBO Max on Wednesday. The film tells the story of a rebellious little child, Ne Zha, born as the reincarnation of a demon to mortal parents, who is out to prove his fate is not predetermined. Michelle Yeoh lent her voice to the English language dub, which she said ''immerses you into our culture.'' The first film is available to stream on Netflix, but it's possible to just dive right into the sequel.
— If you like holiday movies with a side of tears, ''Goodbye June,'' streaming on Netflix on Christmas Eve, might just be the ticket. Kate Winslet directs and stars in this family drama about four adult children (Winslet, Andrea Riseborough, Johnny Flynn, Toni Collette) coming to terms with the fact that their mother, June (Helen Mirren), is dying. In my review, I wrote that it was an admirably solid, if generic, drama that's elevated by a distinguished cast and moments of humor, grace and insight.
— Speaking of holiday viewing, it's also worth noting that Prime Video is getting two of the year's biggest movies: ''A Minecraft Movie,'' on Monday, and ''Sinners,'' on Friday, Dec. 26.
