What’s leaving Sky and NOW in April / May 2021?
David Farnor | On 24, Apr 2021
Sky’s growing number of original shows and ever-expanding catalogue of blockbusters is ideal for keeping your days and nights occupied, but before you break open new box sets or devour some big-hitting films, don’t miss your chance to catch some modern gems before their rights expire and they depart.
That means taking care not to miss out some of Sky’s exclusives, such as HBO’s Run and I Know This Much Is True, as well as Twin Peaks: The Return. Or, if you’ve got Sky Cinema, Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker and Godzilla: King of the Monsters.
This is your last chance to stream the following:
TV
ZeroZeroZero: Season 1 – 24th April
Sky’s stylish, globe-trotting narcotics thriller balances gripping heft with breathtaking scale.

Bill Hader is brilliant in HBO’s darkly funny comedy about a hitman who finds himself trying to venture on a career as an actor.
Resident Alien: Season 1 – 1st May
Alan Tudyk is excellent in this sinister and silly sci-fi comedy.

Run: Season 1 – 3rd May
Merritt Wever and Domhnall Gleeson are hugely entertaining to watch in this wonderful comedy, which starts out with an electrifying train ride full of barely managed restraint and sizzling chemistry – and twists and turns into a thriller full of tension of a completely different kind. Riveting telly.
The Walking Dead: Season 10, Part 3 – 5th May
Don’t miss your chance to catch the bonus episodes that bridge the gap between Season 10 and 11 of AMC’s zombie hit.

Twin Peaks: The Return – 20th May
It’s happening again. Don’t miss your chance to dive back into the revival of Twin Peaks from David Lynch and original co-creator Mark Frost, which continues the story in the present day, 25 years on from when the residents of Twin Peaks were left stunned after the murder of homecoming queen Laura Palmer.
Devils: Season 1 – 21st May
Massimo Ruggeri is the Head of Trading at one of the most important investment banks in the world, whose success has all but guaranteed his promotion to vice-CEO. However, a scandal involving his wife puts a brake on Massimo’s ambitions, leading his American CEO and mentor, Dominic Morgan (Patrick Dempsey), to withdraw his support.

Sky Germany and Sky Studios present a groundbreaking horror-mystery in association with Lago Films. After the death of his mother, 16-year-old Juri and his father Jaschek move into a run-down housing complex on the outskirts of the city. While Jaschek tries to establish a new existence for himself and his son as caretaker of the building, Juri gradually discovers that the house has a vicious life of its own and feeds on the suffering of its inhabitants.
