March just became the best month to stay home. Between a Nicole Kidman thriller, a long-awaited animated sequel, and enough live sports to fill every weekend, Prime Video is not playing around this month. Here’s everything landing on the platform — and what’s actually worth your time.
Nicole Kidman Stars in the Most-Anticipated Show of March: Scarpetta
The biggest Prime Video original dropping this month is Scarpetta, premiering March 11.
Nicole Kidman plays Dr. Kay Scarpetta, the iconic forensic pathologist from Patricia Cornwell’s bestselling novels. She’s determined to solve a serial killer case while also defending the career-defining case she closed 28 years ago.
Jamie Lee Curtis co-stars. The cast alone makes this the most compelling new series on any platform this month.

What to Watch First: Our Top Picks for March
Not everything on this list deserves equal attention. Here’s where to start:
Best new series: Scarpetta. Nicole Kidman in a crime thriller based on beloved source material — this one has prestige written all over it.
Best new comedy: Jury Duty Presents: Company Retreat. If you liked the original Jury Duty, this format works exactly the same way and the concept is genuinely funny.
Best new movie: Pretty Lethal. Uma Thurman, five trained ballerinas using pointe shoes as weapons, and a SXSW premiere — it’s the kind of movie that knows exactly what it is and commits fully.
Best classic film to revisit: The Silence of the Lambs. If you haven’t seen it, March gives you no excuse. If you have, it’s always worth another watch.
Best for families: The full Shrek franchise lands on March 1. Four movies, one sitting, guaranteed chaos for the kids.
Is Prime Video Worth It in March 2026?
Short answer: yes.
The combination of Scarpetta, Invincible Season 4, a stacked movie catalog, and more live sports than most months makes March one of Prime Video’s stronger lineups of the year.
If you’re already a Prime member, you’re getting all of this included. If you’ve been on the fence about subscribing, the Scarpetta premiere alone makes March a reasonable time to start.
Prime Video also offers add-on channels like MGM+, Peacock Premium Plus, HBO Max, and Crunchyroll — so if the core library isn’t enough, there are options to expand without switching platforms.
March 2026 on Prime Video covers pretty much every mood — thriller, comedy, action, nostalgia, and live sport. Clear your schedule accordingly.
