Archenemy is a superhero film about Max Fist (Manganiello), a man who claims he lost his superpowers after arriving from another world.

AMC+ also acquired The Beast Must Die, a modern retelling of the Nicholas Blake novel of the same name. Starring Cush Gumbo, Jared Harris and Billy Howle, the series focuses on a woman who begins to investigate her son’s fatal hit-and-run after the police fail to do so. She ingratiates herself into the family of the man she suspects killed her son, as she herself is tracked by Nigel Strangeways, a detective who believes her story. The drama series will premiere on July 5.

There is also Ultra City Smiths, a stop-motion animated show that follows an investigation into the disappearance of a famous magnate as the two detectives rally to fight against the city’s corruption at whatever cost. The voice cast is absolutely stacked, featuring Kristen Bell, Dax Shepard, Alia Shawkat, Tim Meadows, Terry O’Quinn, Debra Winger, Luis Guzmán and Tom Waits. Ultra City Smiths premieres on Thursday, July 22.
