‘The Last Son’ (2021)

Set in the American West, this story follows outlaw Isaac LeMay, a man convinced by a prophecy that one of his children will kill him. Sam Worthington plays LeMay, with Colson Baker as his violent son Cal and Thomas Jane as a determined lawman named Solomon. The film is directed by Tim Sutton and written by Greg Johnson. It leaves Hulu on Monday 8/18.

As LeMay hunts down his own bloodline to change his fate, the search narrows toward Cal, whose growing notoriety draws both bounty hunters and the law. Heather Graham appears as Anna, whose past with LeMay complicates the pursuit, while the film’s focus on family and inevitability drives the action toward an unforgiving showdown.

‘My Hero Academia: Two Heroes’ (2018)

This feature from the ‘My Hero Academia’ franchise sends Izuku Midoriya and All Might to I-Island, a research hub for top scientists and support gear. The film is directed by Kenji Nagasaki with a screenplay by Yosuke Kuroda, based on the manga by Kohei Horikoshi and produced by Bones. Japanese voices include Daiki Yamashita as Midoriya and Kenta Miyake as All Might, with the English dub led by Justin Briner and Christopher Sabat. It leaves Hulu on Thursday 8/21.

When a villain group seizes the island’s security systems during the I-Expo, Midoriya teams up with Melissa Shield, voiced by Mirai Shida in Japanese and Erica Mendez in English, while All Might reconnects with scientist David Shield. The plot centers on a hostage crisis that tests hero training against real danger, and it expands the series’ world with new technology, a new villain named Wolfram, and backstory for All Might’s early career.

‘Hostile Territory’ (2022)

A Union soldier returns home after the Civil War and discovers his children were mistakenly sent west on an orphan train. Brian Presley directs and stars as Jack Calgrove, the father who sets out to track them across dangerous country. The film blends frontier travel with postwar tensions and follows a rescue mission that gathers unlikely allies. It leaves Hulu on Saturday 8/23.

As the journey moves across rough terrain and hostile encounters, the story draws on the history of orphan trains that relocated children from crowded Eastern cities to new placements in the West. Presley’s script focuses on family reunion and the hazards of lawless stretches between towns, with supporting characters who represent citizens, scouts, and opportunists the group meets along the rails and trails.

‘Nocebo’ (2022)

A fashion designer named Christine begins suffering from a baffling illness after a frightening encounter, and a caregiver named Diana offers traditional healing that promises relief. Eva Green plays Christine, Mark Strong plays her husband Felix, and Chai Fonacier plays Diana. The film is directed by Lorcan Finnegan and written by Garret Shanley. It leaves Hulu on Saturday 8/23.

As the treatments deepen, Christine’s symptoms intertwine with memories of a clothing supply chain tragedy, and the story explores how belief can drive both harm and recovery. The film weaves Philippine folk healing practices with a psychological mystery, revealing motives that connect the household to exploitation far from home and pushing toward a final reckoning inside the designer’s life and work.

‘7 Days’ (2021)

Two Indian American singles agree to a set-up and then get stranded together when a sudden lockdown cancels travel and closes businesses. Karan Soni stars as Ravi and Geraldine Viswanathan as Rita. The film is directed by Roshan Sethi, from a screenplay by Sethi and Soni. It leaves Hulu on Sunday 8/24.

The story follows their improvised coexistence as they navigate clashing expectations, family pressure, and secrets that come to light while they wait out the shut-in. The script uses the confined setting to build character detail through awkward meals, video calls, and small acts of kindness that gradually shift their first impressions into something more complicated.
