THE BIGGEST TV & MOVIES OF 2026 — OUR CHAOTIC PREDICTIONS START NOW. 🍿📺🔥 | WE NEEDED ROADS PODCAST

Happy New Year and welcome back to We Needed Roads — the podcast where the chat is nerdy, the swearing is plentiful, and research on release dates was definitely done.

This week we’re diving head-first into all the major TV show and movies were excited about that are hopefully dropping in 2026.

From superhero behemoths and prestige dramas to horror sequels, wild indies, new streaming experiments — we’re previewing it all with our usual hype & chaos!

Featuring in this episode:

🎬 Neil – watched absolutely everything like a gremlin of content.

💥 Jose – the blockbuster believer, defender of explosions.

📝 Clare – an actual film journalist keeping the rest of us semi-professional.

🤣 Luke – bringing opinions, energy and a love for the animated film.

Expect bold predictions, wrong predictions, heated debates, accidental slander, and the usual “wait… is that actually coming out in 2026?” panic.
