July 26 also sees the release of season 10 of the OG Walking Dead, which has yet to be entirely supplanted by spin-off series. 

In terms of non-original movies, the highlight this week is likely Guy Ritchie’s super-serious heist thriller Wrath of Man starring Jason Statham, Holt McCallany and Josh Hartnett. If that doesn’t float your boat, there’s indie hit The Last Black Man in San Francisco as well as The Angry Birds Movie 2 (July 27).
