As one of the smaller streaming platforms in the UK, STARZPLAY struggles when it comes to having a large enough library to compete with Netflix or Amazon Prime Video. It has to therefore focus on quality over quantity, and 2020 has been a promising proof of that strategy’s success, with Doom Patrol joined by Stephen King’s Castle Rock and Jimmi Simpson noir thriller Perpetual Grace Ltd.

April balances films and intriguing new box sets for the Easter weekend, with Harmony Korine’s latest movie joined by the return of recently cancelled drama Vida and new crime drama Heder.

Here’s what’s coming soon to STARZPLAY in April 2020:
