Resident Alien Season 4 OTT Release Date: When and where to watch Alan Tudyk and Sara Tomko's mystery series
Resident Alien Season 4 OTT Release Date: After months of waiting and plenty of fan speculation, Resident Alien is finally returning for its fourth season, and things are getting weirder, darker, and funnier than ever. If you've been following the story of the alien-turned-doctor Harry Vanderspeigle and his bizarre adventures in the small Colorado town of Patience, get ready to buckle up. The fourth chapter kicks off on Friday, June 6, 2025, airing at 11 PM ET/PT on Syfy and USA Network, with new episodes landing on Peacock a week later. Indian viewers can stream Resident Alien Season 4 on JioHotstar starting June 7. Previously, in patience... Season 3 left viewers hanging on multiple fronts. Harry, played with brilliant awkwardness and charm by Alan Tudyk, was trying to figure out his role on Earth. He had already aborted his original mission to destroy humanity (thankfully), but that didn't mean Earth was safe. By the finale, things were getting truly alien. We met Harry's half-alien daughter, Bridget, and watched as they both were abducted by the Greys and taken to their Moonbase. Meanwhile, back on Earth, things were unravelling. A sinister new alien species, the Mantids, made their presence known, and one of them had shapeshifted into a doppelgänger of Harry. Yes, there were now two Harrys in Patience, and the wrong one was walking around pretending to be him. Asta, Harry's closest human ally (Sara Tomko), had her own emotional rollercoaster. Her relationship with her father, Dan, and her own sense of identity were tugging at her deeply. D'Arcy, still recovering from physical and emotional wounds, was caught in her own web of regret and vulnerability. Meanwhile, Sheriff Mike and Deputy Liv continued being the unlikely, low-key MVPs of the town's law enforcement even as more strange things began happening around them. What's coming in Season 4? Resident Alien Season 4 doesn't waste time. It opens right where Season 3 ended, Harry and Bridget are prisoners on the Greys' Moonbase. They're being studied, interrogated, and ultimately forced to reckon with the larger alien threat looming over Earth. Harry manages to escape, of course, he's too clever not to, but Earth has changed in his absence. Back in Patience, the Mantid, posing as Harry, has been causing havoc. This new enemy is smarter, deadlier, and utterly devoid of Harry's fumbling humanity. As the real Harry returns, he's faced with an impossible task: convince the town that he's the real alien doctor and stop the Mantid before it does something irreversible. At the heart of the season, though, is still Harry's evolution. He's not the alien assassin he once was. He's someone, something, that cares. And that empathy will be tested like never before. Meet the cast and characters Alan Tudyk remains the heart and soul of the show alongside Sara Tomko, as Asta, who grounds the show emotionally. The returning cast includes Alice Wetterlund as the resilient D'Arcy, Corey Reynolds as Sheriff Mike, Elizabeth Bowen as the ever-curious Deputy Liv, Levi Fiehler as Mayor Ben, and Judah Prehn as the ever-sceptical Max. Stephen Root, known for roles in Barry and Office Space, is joining the mix this season as Harry's alien 'father'.

16 new shows and movies to watch in June 2025 — 'The Bear,' 'Squid Game,' 'Gilded Age' and more
Summer streaming is sizzling with hot new shows and movies to watch in June 2025 on Netflix, HBO Max, Prime Video and other major streaming services, as well as broadcast and cable TV. We're highlighting the biggest, buzziest new shows and movies premiering this month. They include some highly anticipated returning favorites, including "The Bear" season 4, "Squid Game" season 3, "The Gilded Age" season 3, "Ginny and Georgia" season 3, "The Buccaneers" season 2 and "Resident Alien" season 4. Several high-profile new TV shows debut, including the golf comedy "Stick" with Owen Wilson and Marvel's "Ironheart." New movies that will hit streaming include "Predator: Killer of Killers" and the action-comedy "Deep Cover" with Sean Bean and Orlando Bloom. Here's our guide on what to watch in June 2025. 'Stick' stars Owen Wilson as a washed-up professional golfer named Pryce Cahill. Pryce was destined to be one of the best golfers ever, but a meltdown during an event derailed his career. Now, he's struggling to make ends meet, but he may have an opportunity to live vicariously through Santi (Peter Dager), a teenage amateur who could one day be the pro Pryce never was. Come for the golf, stay for Timothy Olyphant in a guest starring role. — Malcolm McMillan Premieres June 4 on Apple TV Plus Get instant access to breaking news, the hottest reviews, great deals and helpful tips. Getting hauled off in handcuffs for murder during your wedding ceremony? Georgia (Brianne Howey) wishes she could have said 'I don't' to that. Season 3 opens with the fallout of Georgia's past coming back to bite her and her family. As Georgia's day in court draws near, teen daughter Ginny (Antonia Gentry) is forced to grow up quickly. Not only is her mom facing prison, she has to deal with the regular messiness of adolescence. Hold on tight, Peaches — this season's a wild ride. — Kelly Woo Premieres June 5 on Netflix Looking for some intense action in June? Hulu is where you need to be, as 'Predator: Killer of Killers' — the first of two 'Predator' movies coming our way in 2025 — is due hitting the streaming service very soon Co-directed by Dan Trachtenberg ('Prey') and animation company The Third Floor's Josh Wassung, 'Killer of Killers' is an animated anthology movie that pits three formidable warriors from across human history against one of the most fearsome, extraterrestrial threats ever to grace our screens. It's an elevator pitch that reads like pure wish fulfillment, and it looks to be brought to life in beautiful, bloody fashion. — Martin Shore Premieres June 6 on Hulu 'Resident Alien' stars the incomparable Alan Tudyk as Harry Vanderspeigle. Harry might seem like an unassuming small-town doctor, but he's secretly an alien who crashed into Patience, Colorado, killing the real Dr. Vanderspeigle in the process. If that sounds complicated, don't worry — things have gotten far worse. Harry is now fully engaged in an interstellar alien conflict and must escape an extraterrestrial prison to stop a dangerous threat in Patience. You can watch season 4 as it happens on Syfy and USA on linear cable, though it should eventually hit Netflix like the past three seasons. — MM No, this isn't the 90s Laurence Fishburne/Jeff Goldblum crime thriller — this 'Deep Cover' is Tom Kingsley's fast-paced new crime-comedy caper that sees three actors trying to infiltrate London's gangland underworld and convince some of its major players that they're all seasoned criminals. Having been offered the role by an undercover cop (Sean Bean), improv teacher and aspiring comedian Kat (Bryce Dallas Howard) recruits two of her acting students, Marlon (Orlando Bloom) and Hugh (Nick Mohammed) to join her on this dangerous mission that'll put their 'yes, and…' skills to the test. And, if the trailer's anything to go by, it looks like the challenge is going to be much greater than any of them first thought. — MS Premieres June 12 on Prime Video Arnold Schwarzenegger's once-retired CIA agent Luke Brunner is 'back' in action very soon, as Nick Santora's action-comedy series 'FUBAR' is returning to Netflix just in time for Father's Day. Having already been through the ringer together in the first season, Luke, his daughter (and fellow operative) Emma (Monica Barbaro), and their close allies are due to contend with dangerous new foes. 'The Matrix's' Carrie-Anne Moss has joined the show as Greta Nelso, a formidable East German spy (and a former flame of Luke's) with plans to destroy the world. Can the father-daughter duo save the day all over again? — MS Premieres June 12 on Netflix There's just something about a slow-burning psychological thriller centered on a messy mother-daughter dynamic that always pulls me in, and if the trailer for 'Echo Valley' is anything to go by, this one's going to hit all the right notes. Julianne Moore stars as Kate, a former competitive rider now living a quiet life training horses in rural Pennsylvania, still silently grieving. Her world gets turned upside down when her daughter Claire (Sydney Sweeney) shows up out of nowhere one night, visibly shaken and covered in blood. She's done something awful… and that's when everything starts to unravel. Written by Brad Ingelsby, the creator of 'Mare of Easttown,' this looks like it'll be full of emotional gut punches and morally murky characters. Plus, Domhnall Gleeson is in the mix as a mysterious figure from Claire's past. — Alix Blackburn Premieres June 13 on Apple TV Plus The Buccaneers are back, and this time, the gloves are off (but still trimmed with lace). In season 2, the stakes are higher and the corsets tighter. Nan St. George (Kristine Froseth) is a new duchess and already questioning everything. Meanwhile, sister Jinny (Imogen Waterhouse) is on the run with a baby bump and the very handsome Guy (Matthew Broome). At least Conchita (Alisha Boe) isn't a total mess and she's basically running the London ton. But the arrival of an enigmatic character played by Leighton Meester could overturn all of their lives. - KW Premieres June 18 on Apple TV Plus You can never really go wrong with a good mystery thriller, and it seems like Prime Video could have a hit on its hands with 'We Were Liars.' Based on the hit YA novel by E. Lockhart, the story centers on Cadence Sinclair Eastman (Emily Alyn Lind) and her tight-knit group of friends known as the Liars. The Sinclair family is East Coast elite — wealthy, attractive, and seemingly perfect. But after a tragic and puzzling accident, Cadence begins to realize that the people closest to her might be hiding more than she ever imagined. Thankfully, all eight episodes drop at the same time, ready for a full-on binge session. — AB Premieres June 18 on Prime Video Based on the trailer, "The Waterfront" looks like a healthy mix of comedy, melodrama and crime. It also looks like it could be Netflix's next surprise hit. This drama series, which feels like it could be ripped straight from The CW, stars Jake Weary as Cane Buckley, scion of the Buckley fishing family of North Carolina. Cane's parents, Harlan (Holt McCallany) and Mae (Maria Bello) run the family and seemingly the town, but not all is great behind the scenes. Turns out, the Buckleys are in danger of losing everything. That causes Harlan to turn to drug running, and puts the Buckleys in bed with an up-and-coming drug lord Grady, played by Topher Grace. — MM Premieres June 19 on Netflix With the Opera War behind them, the Russells are ready to run New York, but old money isn't going quietly. Bertha (Carrie Coon) is fixated on marrying off Gladys (Taissa Farmiga) to a duke, while George (Morgan Spector) takes a big bet on the future of railroads — which could make him lose everything. Across Fifth Avenue at the Brook house, Aunt Agnes (Christine Baranski) is fuming as Ada (Cynthia Nixon) steps into her power. And love is in the air, as romance blossoms between Marian (Louisa Jacobson) and Larry Russell (Harry Richardson) and Peggy (Denée Benton) meets a handsome doctor. But they live in a world where marriage is strategy and happiness is optional. Premieres June 22 on HBO and Max In the MCU's newest show, genius meets hustle with a bit of magic thrown in, After her cameo in 'Black Panther: Wakanda Forever,' brilliant MIT student Riri Williams (Dominique Thorne) heads back to Chicago to build a killer new Iron Man suit on her own terms. But things get dangerous when she crosses paths with The Hood (Anthony Ramos), a charming troublemaker with some serious dark arts skills. With Ryan Coogler producing and Chinaka Hodge writing, this Marvel show mixes street smarts and high-tech armor — even Tony Stark would be impressed. - KW Premieres June 24 on Disney Plus Prime Video's new thriller just got an explosive new trailer mere days ago. And if that trailer is any indication, it should be an exhilarating thrill ride. This crime drama, which easily feels like it could be on network TV if it weren't on Prime Video, stars Jensen Ackles as LAPD detective Mark Meachum. He's brought onto a covert task force following the shocking death of a Homeland Security officer, and their goal is simple: stop a 'Chernobyl-level event' from happening on American soil. — MM Premieres June 25 on Prime Video Get ready to say 'Yes, Chef!' one last time. Or … perhaps not? 'The Bear' returns to Hulu on June 25 for a 10-episode season 4, which was long rumored to be the show's final season. But after watching the first trailer, there's no indication that the show will be wrapping up at the end of this season. That doesn't mean there won't be drama, though. Despite some positive signs at the end of season 3, things at the restaurant aren't going great and financially, they're even worse. Now, financier and family friend Cicero is ready to pull the plug unless Carmy manages to make some drastic changes. This will be a show of the year contender, so don't miss it. — MM Premieres June 25 on Hulu Taron Egerton is leading what looks to be another Apple TV Plus crime drama this month, and it looks like an incredibly tense watch. Created and written by 'Black Bird's' Dennis Lehane and based on the podcast series, 'Firebug,' 'Smoke' sees investigators trying to tackle a 'fire plague.' We follow arson investigator Dave Gudsen (Egerton) as he begrudgingly teams with a troubled police detective, Michelle Calderone, (Jurnee Smollett) to chase down two serial arsonists before they can claim any more lives… embroiling them both in a twisting game of dark secrets and suspicion. — MS Premieres June 27 on Apple TV Plus 'Squid Game' season 3 is hands-down one of the Netflix drops I'm looking forward to most this year. Ever since that wild season 2 finale, I've been counting down, and now it's finally almost here. Lee Jung-jae is back as Gi-hun, but this time, he's not playing to survive — he's playing to end it all. The last chapter follows his downward spiral after losing his best friend, and his growing obsession with destroying the Front Man (Lee Byung-hun), who's been pulling the strings behind the scenes. The newest trailer wastes no time setting the vibe: a crying baby, a knife-shaped hallway, Gi-hun locked inside a gift-wrapped box, and a gumball machine popping out red and blue spheres for the next twisted challenge. — AB Premieres June 27 on Netflix

TV Review: RESIDENT ALIEN Season 4
He's back, and this is, in fact, not some bullsh*t. Harry Vanderspeigle (Alan Tudyk) is having a terrible, horrible, no good, very bad day (as is his son, Bridget), but at least his misery is entertaining. When last we saw Harry in Resident Alien , he was stuck on the Greys' Moonbase, with the Mantid (also Tudyk) returning to Earth with Asta (Sara Tomko), D'arcy (Alice Wetterlund) and Ben/Kate's baby. Now, in Season 4, Harry must find a way to escape and defeat the alien impostor masquerading as him in Patience. Recently, I had the privilege of screening the first four episodes of Resident Alien Season 4. Does it pass muster? Does it exceed expectations? Read on for our spoiler-free review. RELATED: Geek Girl Authority Crush of the Week: Resident Alien 's Asta Twelvetrees About Resident Alien Season 4 RESIDENT ALIEN — 'Prisoners' Season 4 Episode 1 — Pictured: Corey Reynolds as Sheriff Mike Thompson — (Photo by: James Dittiger/USA Network) Here's a synopsis per Syfy: 'The fourth season starts with Harry (Tudyk) and his baby Bridget stuck in prison on the Grey Moonbase, while a shape-shifting Alien called a Mantid (also Tudyk) has taken over his body on Earth, passing himself off as the real Harry Vanderspeigle. Harry manages to escape the Greys and arrives back on Earth for a showdown with the Mantid Alien, but soon finds he may not have what he needs to finish the job. Asta (Tomko) and D'arcy (Wetterlund) struggle to keep a secret from Ben (Levi Fiehler) and Kate (Meredith Garretson), who are both desperate to find answers to what has been happening to them. Sheriff Mike (Corey Reynolds) and Deputy Liv (Elizabeth Bowen) attempt to solve some mysterious deaths in Patience that Sheriff Mike is beginning to think aren't caused by anything human.' Season 4 boasts a somewhat shaky start, with some storylines feeling rushed. Of course, the stakes are high. The Mantid is a formidable foe for our heroes and poses a significant threat to the people of Patience. As usual, though, the series tackles the Mantid issue with its signature quirkiness and wit. RELATED: 10 Out-of-This-World Predictions for Resident Alien Season 4 Performances RESIDENT ALIEN — 'Prisoners' Season 4 Episode 1 — Pictured: Sara Tomko as Asta Twelvetrees — (Photo by: James Dittiger/USA Network) Alan Tudyk knocks it out of the park, showcasing his versatility while playing Harry and the Mantid. He's still the comedic crux of Resident Alien . His scenes are always laugh-out-loud funny, and I'm someone who, while I watch more comedies than anything else, seldom laughs out loud. Tudyk is a slapstick aficionado — the king of physical comedy. He squeezes every drop out of a word, a line, even a glance. Nothing is wasted. If there's room for a laugh-inducing moment, Tudyk successfully swings for the fences. Corey Reynolds continues to kill it as Mike Thompson, the self-described 'no-nonsense' yet conspiracy theory-fueled sheriff who just had his own alien experience in the Season 3 finale. Reynolds walks that fine line between heightened comedy and realism. He knows how to make this over-the-top character, who could be merely comedic relief, feel grounded and honest. And the comedy blooms from that honesty. Alice Wetterlund shines in episode three, in particular, especially when opposite Tudyk. D'arcy is at her comedic best when focused on a mission, and she gets a lot of fun material in Season 4. Sara Tomko is still delightful as the 'straight man' character (and our human perspective) amid a roster of zany players, but she, too, stretches her comedic muscles this season. Not that Asta has never been funny; however, she doesn't fall squarely into that straight man category as much in Season 4. Tomko is at her funniest with Tudyk and/or Wetterlund. Those three are comedy dynamite together. RELATED: Read our Resident Alien recaps Enver Gjokaj plays off Tudyk well and gets his time in the limelight in episode two. He has fantastic comedic chops and should appear in more comedies if I have anything to say about it. Jenna Lamia is somehow even more hilarious as Judy this season, too. Finding Its Footing RESIDENT ALIEN — 'Prisoners' Season 4 Episode 1 — Pictured: (l-r) Levi Fiehler as Mayor Ben Hawthorne, Meredith Garretson as Kate Hawthorne — (Photo by: James Dittiger/USA Network) Circling back to my earlier remark about the rocky start, part of this is down to the initial separation of the cast. To me, this show is at its best when Harry interacts frequently with the human cast — his very alien demeanor bouncing off the springboard that is the more grounded characters. We get less of this in the first four episodes, along with pacing issues with certain arcs. However, Season 4 also introduces intriguing new storylines and, ultimately, begins finding its footing after a few episodes. These respective plots start to gel better further into the season and, after some bumps, everything flows with more ease. It also takes a beat to rediscover the show's heart and balance its trademark blend of humor and heart. Resident Alien Season 4 takes a hot minute to reorient itself and return to the hysterically heartfelt series we all love. Still, when it fires on all cylinders, it's truly, well, firing on all cylinders. Mind you, this is only having viewed episodes one through four. As with anything, there's room for improvement, and the new narrative threads are ripe with potential. I can't wait to see where we go from here. Be sure to have pepperoni pizza (and your emotional support human bestie) on hand when Resident Alien Season 4 premieres on Friday, June 6, 2025, at 11 pm EST/PST on USA Network and Syfy.
