New Movies & Shows To Stream This Weekend: The Lincoln Lawyer, Fanatical: The Catfishing of Tegan and Sara, Brothers + More

This week on streaming, a new season of Netflix’s legal drama The Lincoln Lawyer arrives with ten new episodes. Over on Hulu, Erin Lee Carr, the documentarian who brought us Britney Vs. Spears delivers a new doc, Fanatical: The Catfishing of Tegan and Sara, about the real-life identity theft of musician Tegan Quin. And on Prime Video, Josh Brolin stars with Peter Dinnklage in the caper comedy Brothers.

New on Hulu October 18: Fanatical: The Catfishing of Tegan and Sara

Tegan and Sara are pretty famous. They have performed with Taylor Swift, wrote the theme song to The Lego Movie and have a massive fan army devoted to them. But fame doesn’t insulate you from hackers and catfishers and scams, and the new Hulu documentary Fanatical: The Catfishing of Tegan and Sara exposes the frightening ordeal that Tegan has gone through for over a decade, as someone posing as her has catfished numerous fans and stolen her identity. The story has been kept quiet until now; you can watch it unfold when the new doc drops on October 18.

New on Netflix October 17: The Lincoln Lawyer (Season 3)

Netflix’s The Lincoln Lawyer, which is based on the book series by Michael Connelly, returns for season three this week. Manuel Garcia-Rulfo plays the titular lawyer Mickey Haller (referred to as the Lincoln Lawyer for the practice he runs out of his car) for a season based on Connelly’s book The Gods of Guilt.

New on Prime Video October 17: Brothers

Peter Dinklage and Josh Brolin star as brothers whose testy relationship is challenged even more when they take a road trip to handle some criminal business in Brothers. Brendan Fraser, Glenn Close, and Taylour Paige co-star in the action-comedy caper which arrived on Thursday.
