New Series Coming June 24: Dark Detective, Dangerous Game, and Armor from the Future

Contents:
Ahead lie long-awaited returns, unexpected premieres, and a series inspired by true crime.

Looks like this is one of those weeks when you want to take time off, turn off notifications, and just binge-watch. Here's what's dropping June 24-27 — and why it's worth your time.

"The Bear," Season 4

Premiere: June 25 on Hulu

Starring: Jeremy Allen White, Liza Colón-Zayas, Ebon Moss-Bachrach

Carmy, Sydney, and Richie are back in the kitchen — but now the goal isn't just survival, it's excellence and putting their restaurant on the map as one of the country's best. This season, our characters walk the razor's edge between creativity and burnout, between personal pain and the pursuit of perfection. And they're doing it with the same relentless pace that made us fall in love with "The Bear" in the first place.

The show's previous seasons swept practically everything — 21 Emmys, 4 Golden Globes, and status as one of TV's biggest events in recent years.

If you're not on board yet, now's the time to catch up. Especially if you want drama with edge, momentum, and flawless performances.

"Squid Game," Season 3

Premiere: June 27 on Netflix

Starring: Lee Jung-jae, Lee Byung-hun, Wi Ha-jun

The deadly games continue. Gi-hun is back, and this time — he's not just a player, he's a man on a mission. After the failed uprising, he's planning to strike back and destroy the system from within.

The new season promises to be even darker and more ambitious than before. Remember: "Squid Game" was the first Korean series to explode worldwide and hit number one on Netflix's global charts. This time, the stakes — literally — are higher than ever.

"Ironheart," Limited Series

Premiere: June 24 on Disney+

Starring: Dominique Thorne, Anthony Ramos

This six-episode series introduces a new superhero to the MCU who creates high-tech armor... and accidentally makes contact with magic.

It's a striking combination — technology meets darkness. Despite the PG-13 rating, they're promising plenty of sharp twists. Could this be the one to surpass Tony Stark?

"Smoke," Limited Series

Premiere: June 27 on Apple TV+

Starring: Jurnee Smollett, Taron Egerton

If you're into investigations like "True Detective," don't miss this limited series about two detectives hunting down a serial arsonist.

What's fascinating is that the project is based on real events. The creators studied the crimes of serial arsonist John Leonard Orr, committed in the 1980s and early 1990s.

Bottom line: this week promises to be packed — and incredibly diverse. Pick what speaks to you. Or go for everything. Earlier, we at zoomboola.com covered three new films that dropped June 12: a drama with Sydney Sweeney, an action flick with Rebel Wilson, and a rom-com from A24.
