Prime Video UK February 2022: All the new movies and TV shows to stream

There can't be many tasks more daunting than stepping into the shoes of Tom Cruise — one of Hollywood's last true movie stars. But that's the challenge ahead of Alan Ritchson, who is taking on the role of Jack Reacher for a new TV series after Cruise played Lee Child's military man in two movies. Reacher is one of the most exciting new additions to Prime Video this month.

Elsewhere on the service, The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel is back for its fourth season and a selection of Canada's finest comedians enter a house together with the goal of avoiding laughter at all costs in a fun new game show. On the movie front, meanwhile, there's a brand new documentary about the England football team's record goalscorer.

Here's everything new heading to Amazon's Prime Video UK in February 2022...

New movies coming to Amazon Prime Video in February

I Want You Back (11 February)

In the sophomore directorial effort by Jason Orley — he previously helmed Pete Davidson comedy Big Time Adolescence in 2019 — Charlie Day and Jenny Slate play a pair of dumped thirty-somethings who join forces for a questionable goal. They attempt to reclaim their previous partners by sabotaging their current romances. It's a classic romcom setup and, with two very talented comic performers in the lead roles, it could be a fun ride.

Rooney (11 February)

Wayne Rooney is one of the most famous footballers in recent history, scoring dozens of goals for England and for Manchester United during the team's period of Premier League dominance. He has also been a controversial figure off the pitch and the subject of thousands of newspaper column inches over the years. This new doc aims to set the record straight in Rooney's own words, with contributions from his family and wife Coleen, as well as those who have worked with him on the pitch.

LOL: Last One Laughing Canada (weekly from 18 February)

When you put a group of funny people together in a house, laughter seems like the obvious outcome. But that's the last thing the cast of Last One Laughing want to happen, as the final person to crack up will win money for a chosen charity. Amazon has deployed this format in numerous territories, with the latest bringing together some great Canadian comics, including Whose Line Is It Anyway? stalwart Colin Mochrie and Mae Martin — writer and star of the brilliant sitcom Feel Good.

The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel S4 (weekly from 18 February)
