The Sky’s The Limit On Paramount+ In 2026.
The world’s best entertainment is all in one place, and Australia’s premiere streaming service, Paramount+, isn’t slowing down in 2026!
From award-winning dramas to family favourites, thrilling live sports to blockbuster films, there’s a mountain of entertainment and something for everyone.
Looking to the near future and the scale and calibre of content coming to Paramount+ in 2026, the Paramount Goat said: “If you thought we hit peak entertainment this year, wait ‘til you see our upcoming, award-winning line-up. More homegrown hits than a goat can swing a horn at! And that’s before we go global!”
Paramount+ continues to deliver unmissable homegrown content, with two brand-new Aussie dramas hitting the service next year.
From Roadshow Rough Diamond, the award-winning producers behind Offspring, Love My Way, Tangle, The Secret Life of Us, Bumpand Romper Stomper, comes Dalliance, a brand-new drama set around the complex relationships of 60-somethings who can’t be defined by their age.
Dalliance follows Billy (Hugo Weaving) an ex-cameraman who meets Dani (Heather Mitchell) on the Sydney Harbour ferry in a colliding of worlds. The attraction is obvious, and the writing would be on the wall… if Billy wasn’t happily married to his wife of 40 years, Rose (Georgie Parker).
But everything changes when Billy dies from a sudden heart attack while he’s with Dani. As his friends are reunited at his wake, and then find their own ways to move on, Billy’s untimely demise has far-reaching effects, with intimate relationships formed and others broken within the group.
Dalliance is sometimes heart wrenching and often hilarious as our friends discover that life, love, and sex in their sixties is not what they expected.
Two Years Later is a romantic dramedy starring Brenton Thwaites and Phoebe Tonkin. Created by screenwriter Pete Bridges, the series is produced by Emmy® and BAFTA Award-winning production company, Hoodlum.
Thirty-somethings Emily (Tonkin) and Ryan (Thwaites) have a connection during their brief daily flirtations on their bus commute to work. But all that stops one day with the sudden COVID-19 lockdown.
Cut to two years later, and the pair step back onto the bus and instantly reconnect, so Ryan proposes they go on eight dates, at the end of which they will either get married or walk away.
Dalliance, Two Years Later and Last King Of The Cross season three, will join the growing suite of Aussie hits on Paramount+, including the recently launched Ghosts Australia, the second season of Aussie Shore, and the third season of NCIS: Sydney.
From home grown stories to international sensations, our 2026 lineup delivers unmissable content from across the globe.
Unspeakable: The Murder of JonBenét Ramsey stars Melissa McCarthy and Clive Owen as Patsy and John Ramsey, a couple who dedicated their lives to building the narrative of a perfect life, only to have it fall apart one Christmas night. Nearing the 30th anniversary of one of America’s most notorious unsolved murders, the series explores the lives of the Ramsey family before and after the tragic murder of JonBenét when she was just six years old.
Joining the expanding stable of Taylor Sheridan’s television universe comes Y: Marshals, The Dutton Ranch, The Madison, and NOLA King. Boasting A-list casts and guest stars, Sheridan continues to captivate fans by exploring the stories of the Dutton family, and the terrains of Montana.
Y: Marshals is both a sequel and a spin-off to the wildly popular Yellowstone and sees Luke Grimes, Gil Birmingham, Mo Brings Plenty, and Brecken Merrill reprising their roles.
Set after the events of Yellowstone’s final season, Y: Marshals follows former U.S. Navy SEAL and rancher Kayce Dutton (Grimes) as he joins a specialised and elite unit of US Marshals to “bring justice to Montana”.
The Dutton Ranch similarly follows former Yellowstone characters Beth Dutton (Kelly Reilly), Rip Wheeler (Cole Hauser) and Carter (Finn Little). Having risked it all for their 7,000-acre ranch, Beth and Rip have their peace. Now they face their toughest challenge yet; fighting to survive.
Executive produced and starring Michelle Pfeiffer, The Madison is a heartfelt study of grief and human connection and follows a New York family who make the move to the Madison River valley of Montana.
Set in the world of Tulsa King, NOLA King stars Samuel L. Jackson in his first role headlining a TV series. It follows the events of the third season of Tulsa King which saw Russell Lee Washington Jr. (Jackson) sent to Tulsa to take out Dwight Manfredi (Sylvester Stallone) once and for all.
Seeing what Dwight had built in Tulsa, Russell heads back to New Orleans and the home he abandoned four decades ago, hoping to mend his relationships with family and friends, and take control of the city he left behind.
The series is part of Sheridan’s growing slate on Paramount+, which includes Landman, 1923, Lioness, Tulsa King, 1883, and Lawmen: Bass Reeves.
Outside of the Sheridan universe but set amongst the stars is the highly anticipated next chapter in the world of Star Trek, Star Trek: Starfleet Academy.
Starring Holly Hunter, Paul Giamatti, Tig Notaro, Robert Picardo, and Oded Fehr, Starfleet Academy introduces viewers to a young group of brand-new cadets played by Sandro Rosta, Karim Diané, Kerrice Brooks, George Hawkins and Bella Shepard.
With stars in their eyes, full of hope and optimism, they discover what it takes to become Starfleet officers as they navigate blossoming friendships, explosive rivalries, first loves and a new enemy that threatens both the Academy and the Federation itself.
The stars that shine are all on Paramount+. Season Four of The Gilded Age and Yellowjackets and Season Two of Dexter: Resurrection will bring the thrills and the scandalous tea spills. Michael Fassbender and Jeffrey Wright return in spy drama The Agency Season Two, and NCIS Season 23 and NCIS Origins Season Two join NCIS: Tony & Ziva on the platform.
More international favourites returning include Mobland Season Two, FBI Season Eight, Fire Country Season Four, Matlock Season Two, and Elsbeth Season Three.
And after making headlines around the world, South Park is back with more episodes for Season 28, no doubt bringing even more controversy to the table.
The home of Hollywood blockbusters, some of the year’s biggest hits will also be coming to the platform very soon. Movie buffs will be able to watch titles like Mission Impossible: The Final Reckoning, Scream 7, Smile 2, The Naked Gun, or for more family friendly fun, Smurfs, and The SpongeBob Movie: Search for SquarePants.
Speaking of fun for the whole family, the always nautical but nice SpongeBob SquarePants is joined by more classic kids’ content like Paw Patrol, Transformers: EarthSpark, Tales of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, and Dora.
Live sport is hitting fever pitch on Paramount+ as it remains the home of Australian football and is joined by the arrival of UFC in 2026.
Don’t miss a second of the football action as Paramount+ is the only place to see every game live, with coverage of all CommBank Matildas and CommBank Socceroos matches, every single Isuzu UTE A-League Men and Ninja A-League Women, plus the AFC Women’s Asian Cup 2026™ hosted in Australia, where our Tillies will be seeking to win on home soil.
And in 2026, Paramount+ will become the new broadcast partner for UFC in Australia, one of the world’s most dynamic and influential sport franchises.
Paramount+ subscribers in Australia will have access to all live UFC Fight Nights and the prelims for marquee numbered events as part of their subscription from January. This partnership underscores the commitment of Paramount+ to delivering world-class sports experiences to its audiences.
It’s going to be a big, bold year, and we can’t wait to shine with you on Paramount+.
