What’s new on Amazon Prime Video in January 2024

We’ve officially started a new year, but as far as Amazon Prime Video is concerned, we might as well set our clocks back a year. That’s because Prime Video is adding two of 2023’s biggest box-office hits in January 2024: Fast X and Transformers: Rise of the Beasts. There’s also another blast from the past coming to Prime Video in the form of a new Zorro original series that reboots one of the original masked heroes who debuted before comic book icons like Batman.

Speaking of superheroes, Prime Video is getting all of the classic Superman movies this month, as well as Pulp Fiction, No Country for Old Men, and the first four installments of Mission: Impossible. Of course, those films are only on loan from other studios, but Prime Video is doing an excellent job of keeping top-tier titles in its catalog throughout the year. That’s one of the reasons we wrote at length about why Prime Video was the most underrated streamer of 2023.

Below, you can find the complete list of what’s coming to Amazon Prime Video in January, with our recommendations in bold. And if you need a little more help in deciding what to watch, we also have a list of the best movies streaming on Amazon, as well as a list of the best TV shows streaming on Amazon. If Amazon isn’t your only go-to streaming service, we also have helpful articles on the best movies on Netflix and the best shows on Netflix, as well as plenty of guides for Hulu, Disney+, and HBO Max.
