Paramount Plus likes to say they have a mountain of TV shows and movies (get it?), so we're here to help you navigate through all of those choices. Find the full list of everything that is coming to Paramount Plus this April, from classic movies and TV shows to streaming replays of current broadcast TV shows, Paramount Plus originals and live sports.
But first, here are What to Watch's picks for the best of the best of new content on Paramount Plus this month.
Best movie on Paramount Plus in April: Nebraska (April 1)
If you fell in love with The Holdovers recently, then perhaps you should explore some more work from director Alexander Payne, including his 2013 comedy Nebraska. The movie stars Bruce Dern as an elderly man who believes he has won a million-dollar prize, so he travels from Montana to Nebraska with his adult son (Will Forte) to claim it. Shot in gorgeous black-and-white, Nebraska is a hilarious and heartfelt story and another high watermark in Payne's filmography.
Some other movies you should definitely check out that are new this month are First Blood (aka the first Rambo movie), Galaxy Quest, The King of Comedy, Magnolia, Malcolm X, Planes, Trains and Automobiles, Saturday Night Fever and Team America: World Police.
Best TV show on Paramount Plus in April: Star Trek: Discovery season 5 (April 4)
Prepare to "boldly go" on one last adventure through space, as Star Trek: Discovery season 5 is set to premiere on Paramount Plus this April for its final season. While there are other Star Trek originals still airing on the streaming service, Discovery was the first new series in a while and has been a fan-favorite, so many will be sad to see it go. But with episodes releasing weekly, there is still time to enjoy the ride.
Other TV options include more episodes of A Gentleman in Moscow and the Sonic spinoff Knuckles premiering at the end of the month. Plus, a couple of TV specials for NCIS and music legend Billy Joel are going to hit the streaming service.
Best live sport on Paramount Plus in April: The Masters (April 13-14)
There's nothing like The Masters for golf fans, as play returns to the legendary Augusta National Golf Course, with Paramount Plus offering live third and final round coverage (it has supplementary Masters Live coverage for the rest of the week). With a field of the best players in the world (at least right now including Tiger Woods), it should be another exciting Masters tournament to see who puts on the green jacket.
