As the offline world is busy preparing for festivities, the entertainment world has become a bit dull. We have just one major Indian original—Huma Qureshi's Mithya: Dark Chapter (Season 2)—where we are met with sisterly rivalry.
On the international front, the spotlight is on Selena Gomez's Wizards Beyond Waverly Place, in which we meet the wizards from the original popular Disney show Wizards of the Waverly Place, which ran from 2007 to 2013. A new wizard prodigy enters the picture, ready to be trained by the original wizards. The high-stakes political world of Netflix's The Diplomat is now streaming. The series continues to navigate the challenging journey of a US diplomat who is now the new ambassador to the UK.
An interesting documentary, now available on Netflix, explores the controversial on- and off-screen life of American businesswoman and writer Martha Stewart.
Our final pick for the week is Olivia Rodrigo's Netflixised version of her ongoing concert tour GUTS, where the magic of her tour comes alive on our screen.
Top OTT Releases This Week (October 28 – November 3)
Here is more about our picks for this week. While you pick from among these, don't forget to check our comprehensive table, which, towards the end of the story, contains all other releases of the week from major streaming platforms.
Wizards Beyond Waverly Place
Release Date: October 30
Genre: Fantasy, Young Adult, Comedy
Where to Watch: Hotstar
Cast: David Henrie, Mimi Gianopulos, Alkaio Thiele, Max Matenko, Janice LeAnn Brown, Selena Gomez, Taylor Cora
Disney has decided to serve heartfelt nostalgia to the millennials with its beloved wizard show, which is making a comeback after more than a decade. The original Wizards of the Waverly Place followed three teenage wizards-in-training – Alex (Selena Gomez), Justin (David Henrie), and Max Russo.
In this spin-off version, Justin has been peacefully living a mortal life along with his wife and two sons for many years. However, when Alex (Selena Gomez) introduces him to Billie -- a problematic, smart-mouth teenager-wizard-in-training -- for mentorship, Alex can't help but wonder what his life would be like if the magic returned. [Will we finally see him as a wizard after all these years?
Mithya: The Dark Chapter (Season 2)
Release Date: November 1
Genre: Drama Where to Watch: Zee5
Cast: Huma Qureshi, Avantika Dassani, Naveen Kasturia
The last time we were in the Mithya universe, we saw two sisters at each other's throats. The premise remains the same this season; if anything, the enmity has doubled.
Juhi's (Huma Qureshi) perfect little world is shaken when a mysterious writer called Amit (Naveen Kasturia) accuses her of plagiarism for her latest work. Meanwhile, her sister Rhea (Avantika Dassani) continues to plot schemes to win over her father's love and defeat Juhi.
As morality takes a step back and the two women are consumed by range, limits cease to exist, and the two gradually begin to [metaphorically] turn into each other.
The Diplomat Season 2
Release Date: October 31
Genre: Crime, Drama
Where to Watch: Netflix
Cast: Keri Russell, Rufus Sewell, David Gyasi, Allison Janney, Ato Essandoh, Ali Ahn, Nana Mensah, Miguel Sandoval, Michael McKean, Celia Imrie, T'Nia Miller
The Diplomat's second season comes with yet another scandal! As British Prime Minister Nicol Trowbridge tries to boost his power, U.S. Ambassador Kate Wyler finds herself caught in a deadly web. While she races to expose his ruthlessness, a second explosion rocks her world, putting her loved ones' lives in peril. With Vice President Grace Penn's arrival, Kate's pursuit of justice takes a dark and treacherous turn.
Martha
Release Date: October 30
Genre: Documentary Where to Watch: Netflix
Cast: Martha Stewart
Martha Stewart's life is a fascinating story of success, scandal, and reinvention. This documentary explores her journey from a teenage model to a Wall Street stockbroker and, eventually, an icon of entertainment and class.
Stewart herself is the subject of interviews in the film, where she lays it all bare, from personal anecdotes and professional secrets to post-prison life as a visionary influencer. We get a peek into her diaries, letters, and never-seen-before footage. R.J. Cutler directs.
Olivia Rodrigo: GUTS World Tour
Release Date: October 29 Genre: Music, Documentary Where to Watch: Hotstar Cast: Olivia Rodrigo, Daisy Spencer, Moa Munoz, Kyra Cole, Emily Rosenfield, Anilee List, Hayley Brownell, Ami Takashima, Jada Walker
If you keep up with even the slightest of pop culture trends, chances are you already know who Olivia Rodrigo is. The 21-year-old Grammy-winning artist – popular for songs like Drivers License and Good 4 U – is a singer, songwriter, and actor from America.
Her tour of GUTS started earlier this year in February and will be concluding in 2025 in Manchester on July 1. In this Netflix special, Rodrigo takes the viewers to the extravagance from the Los Angeles leg of her tour, shot in Intuit Dome. From her power-packed performances to the fans screaming, crying, dancing, and singing their hearts out to songs from her latest albums, this docu-film offers it all.
