Alexander Skarsgård's first role is in the science fiction series "Murderbot," debuting on Apple TV+.

The show explores themes of sentience and free will, intertwining humor and action for a fresh and entertaining take on the sci-fi genre. "Murderbot" is based on Martha Wells' popular science fiction book series.
On a starkly different note, Skarsgård takes on a World War II-era role in the series "The Photographer," available on Prime Video. This drama centers on 1st Lt. Robert F., a Marine Corps officer during the global conflict. Details on the series are scarce, but the combination of Skarsgård's presence and the historical setting make for an intriguing project.
Meanwhile, Arte celebrates the 80th birthday of German filmmaker Rainer Werner Fassbinder with the screening of two of his most significant films, "Lili Marleen" and "The Marriage of Maria Braun," and a documentary on actress Hanna Schygulla in their media library. Both films showcase Fassbinder's cinematic prowess, offering audiences a chance to appreciate his work.
Lastly, MagentaTV presents "Freud - Beyond Belief," a fictional meeting of Sigmund Freud and C.S. Lewis, two of the 20th century's most influential thinkers. Taking place in London in September 1939, as the Second World War commences, the film focuses on a philosophical debate between the renowned psychoanalyst and the writer who would later create "The Chronicles of Narnia."
With these new series and films now available, viewers are sure to find captivating tales that virtually transport them to different worlds and times, catering to a wide array of interests.
