Episode 53 of Screen Time sees Stephen Steps Lowe back behind the mic after a short break, catching up on a busy stretch in film, TV and gaming.

With the Luxembourg Film Festival underway and plenty of cinema and streaming releases to dig through, the show rounds up the biggest headlines, previews upcoming films hitting Kinepolis Luxembourg, and hands out the latest cinema chart rundown. There are also cinema tickets up for grabs for listeners who stay tuned to the end.

The episode’s featured soundtrack spotlights the music from Juno, whose lo-fi indie folk soundtrack, featuring songs connected to Kimya Dawson and The Moldy Peaches, helped define the film’s offbeat charm. Nearly two decades on, tracks like Anyone Else But You still feel timeless, proving that understated, character-driven music can shape a film just as powerfully as a big orchestral score.

In cinemas, upcoming releases include Project Hail Mary, a sci-fi survival story about a lone astronaut racing to save humanity, and The Bride, Maggie Gyllenhaal’s gothic reimagining of the Frankenstein legend starring Jessie Buckley.

Meanwhile, Luxembourg’s box office chart features family adventure Marsupilami, Pixar’s body-swap comedy Hoppers, sports drama Marty Supreme starring Timothée Chalamet, and horror sequel Scream 7 topping the list.

On streaming, the team reviews Netflix mystery His & Hers, a twisty whodunnit starring Tessa Thompson and Jon Bernthal, and previews new series including Lanterns, the DC detective drama starring Kyle Chandler and Aaron Pierre, Apple TV+ newsroom thriller The Audacity, and Peacock’s surreal comedy The Miniature Wife.

Gaming news rounds out the show with updates on video-game concert tours coming to Europe, the rapid shutdown of shooter Highguard, and a new track from Poppy created for Bungie’s upcoming game Marathon.
