If you missed Osgood Perkins’ latest slice of folk horror in theaters—which, judging by the box office numbers, almost all of you did—you’ll soon be able to stream it from the comfort of your own couch. Hulu has officially announced that Keeper, starring Marvel alum Tatiana Maslany, will land on the platform this June. The film’s journey to streaming has been a swift one following its underwhelming theatrical run.

After failing to spark a fire at the box office, it quietly slipped onto digital storefronts on December 9, 2025, before hitting physical media (Blu-ray, DVD, and 4K) on January 20, 2026. Anniversaries, Cabins, and Inevitable Doom Written by Nick Lepard, Keeper follows a couple who decide to celebrate their anniversary with a weekend getaway at a secluded cabin.

Warning! Spoilers! Well, it’s officially over. After five seasons of explosive whale carcasses, exploding heads, and enough psychological trauma to keep a stadium of therapists in business for life, “The Boys“ has taken its final, blood-soaked bow. While saying goodbye to Amazon’s flagship superhero satire hurts, we should all be profoundly grateful it didn’t become one of those franchises that get dragged behind the corporate cash-cow shed long past their expiration dates. Looking at you, “The Walking Dead.” Instead, showrunner Eric Kripke gave us an ending that wrapped everything up in a neat, heavily traumatized little bow. Let’s break down how the showdown went down. A Funeral, an Execution, and a Virus The finale’s emotional anchor kicked off with the crew burying Frenchie. Losing one of the show’s absolute best characters was a gut-punch, but it served as the ultimate catalyst. It finally lit a fire under the Boys’ collective asses to do what should have been done five seasons
