Predator Badlands Dominates US Streaming Charts as A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms Leads Series Rankings

If you’ve been wondering what everyone’s watching lately, this week’s Top 10 lists tell a pretty clear story.

From big franchise films roaring onto the scene to prestige dramas holding their ground, audiences in the US are mixing nostalgia, action, and character-driven storytelling in equal measure.

Let’s break it down.

Predator Badlands Roars to Number One

The biggest headline this week belongs to Predator Badlands, which storms straight to the number one spot on the movie chart in the United States.

Predator: Badlands debuted in theaters on November 7, 2025, setting a franchise record with a $40 million domestic opening weekend ($80 million worldwide).

Directed by Dan Trachtenberg, this sci-fi thriller features Elle Fanning and follows a young Predator on a distant planet, currently streaming on Hulu as of Feb 2026.

The sci-fi action series has reinvented itself several times over the decades, and this installment appears to be connecting with audiences across streaming platforms including Disney+ and Hulu.

Franchise power still matters, and Predator Badlands is proof of that.

Blue Moon and Bugonia Follow Close Behind

Coming in at number two is Blue Moon, showing strong early momentum and word-of-mouth appeal.

Right behind it at number three sits Bugonia, continuing to generate buzz among viewers who are clearly eager for something a little different.

While not franchise-driven like Predator, its placement near the top suggests strong engagement and repeat viewing.

It’s a reminder that while legacy titles pull audiences in, original stories can absolutely compete.

Familiar Titles Climb the Movie Rankings

Further down the list, One Battle After Another lands at number eight, showing steady traction rather than a flash debut.

Closing out the Top 10 at number ten is Dead of Winter, proving that suspense and seasonal thrillers never fully fall out of favor with audiences.

The overall movie chart this week reflects a healthy mix of blockbuster spectacle and quieter but persistent performers.

A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms Rules the Series Chart

Over on the television side, A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms claims the number one spot on HBO Max.

Set in the same world as Game of Thrones, the series benefits from deep lore and a built-in fan base.

George R.R. Martin’s universe continues to prove that Westeros still holds serious drawing power. Spin-offs are always a gamble, but this one appears to be paying off.

Fantasy fatigue? Not this week.

The Pitt and Lonesome Dove Hold Strong

At number two, The Pitt continues to perform consistently, maintaining strong viewer retention.

Meanwhile, Lonesome Dove ranks third — a testament to the staying power of classic storytelling. Even decades after its original release, the Western epic continues to resonate with audiences, reminding us that great character-driven narratives don’t age out.

Streaming has a funny way of giving older titles new life.

The Night Agent and Dark Winds Stay in the Mix

The Night Agent remains firmly inside the Top 5 at number five, holding onto its audience with steady suspense and political intrigue.

Rounding out the series chart at number ten is Dark Winds, continuing to carve out space for crime drama fans who prefer something moody and atmospheric.

Together, the list shows viewers balancing fantasy, thrillers, legacy titles, and grounded dramas all at once.

What This Week’s Rankings Tell Us

A few trends stand out:

• Franchise entries still generate major opening-week interest.
• Fantasy remains dominant when backed by strong source material.
• Older or legacy series can surge again thanks to streaming accessibility.
• Audiences are splitting time between action-heavy films and layered drama series.

Perhaps most notably, Predator Badlands leading the movie rankings signals that long-running IP, when refreshed correctly, can still feel urgent and relevant.

This week’s streaming charts reflect a healthy mix of spectacle and substance.

From alien hunters to knights of Westeros, viewers are clearly leaning into immersive worlds — whether they’re revisiting old favorites or diving into new releases.

If the rankings are any indication, big universes and bold storytelling aren’t going anywhere anytime soon.
