New this week: Supergirl leads a busy week of releases

The week of June 21–27, 2026 is dominated by one release: Supergirl, the second film in James Gunn's DC Universe, opens in theaters on June 26.

Save Supergirl

Craig Gillespie directs Milly Alcock as Kara Zor-El in an adaptation of Tom King's Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow comic, with David Corenswet's Superman and Jason Momoa's Lobo folded into the DCU's expanding roster. It promises a harder, Mad Max-inflected tone than 2025's Superman. It shares its release date with two smaller titles, giving the week an unusually crowded June 26 specifically.

Also opening June 26 is Jackass: Best and Last, billed as Johnny Knoxville and the original crew's final theatrical outing, distributed by Paramount. The same day brings The Invite, Olivia Wilde's comedy-drama with Seth Rogen and Penélope Cruz among a dinner-party ensemble, into limited US release ahead of a wider July 10 expansion. Notes from the Last Row, a Korean thriller limited series starring Choi Min-sik, drops all six episodes on Netflix on June 26 at once.

The week's international counterpart is Dear You, a Chinese drama-family-comedy directed by Lan Hongchun that already opened domestically in April; it expands into Australia and New Zealand on June 25 and reaches North American theaters on June 26. Rounding out the week, Power Ballad, the Nick Jonas and Paul Rudd musical comedy that went wide in theaters on June 5, becomes available to rent or buy digitally from June 23.

For a week this stacked, the choice comes down to appetite: Supergirl for a swing at blockbuster spectacle with a rougher edge, Jackass: Best and Last for a nostalgic send-off, The Invite or Dear You for character-driven counterprogramming, Notes from the Last Row for a single-sitting thriller binge, and Power Ballad on VOD for anyone catching up before the conversation moves on.
