What’s New on Peacock in August 2024? Paris Olympics, Bel-Air, The Fall Guy & More

As a sports enthusiast and news junkie with over two decades of immersion in the world of broadcasting, I must say that this lineup is nothing short of spectacular! It’s like being a kid in a candy store, but for grown-ups who never grew out of their love for sports and current events.


The games have commenced! Starting now and running up to the closing ceremonies on August 11th, Peacock will be your go-to destination for live streaming every instance of competitive action from the 2024 Paris Olympics. Although the month is packed with round-the-clock Olympic coverage that you can easily access through the bird app’s central hub, the games are merely the beginning of all the excitement August has to offer.

Alongside an array of fresh movie and TV masterpieces (check them all out!), you’ll find numerous must-watch exclusives, original productions, and cinema debuts gracing Peacock in August. Highlights include a new comedy series with NBA legend Stephen Curry, the Season 3 comeback of Bel-Air, and a major reunion for Love Island. There’s no better spot to cool down during the scorching summer heat this month!

Starting August 8, Stephen Curry stars in the lead role of “Mr. Throwback,” a fresh, mockumentary-style comedy series on Peacock. This original production brings together basketball legend Steph Curry with Danny (Adam Pally), a struggling memorabilia dealer – who coincidentally is also Steph’s fictional childhood friend from way back when. In this series, Curry takes part as an executive producer, weaving his real-life character with a humorous, deeply engaging narrative that explores the significance of the past and personal growth.

As a devoted fan of both Peacock’s programming and reality TV shows, I am thrilled to share my excitement about the upcoming season premieres! Having grown up watching re-runs of ‘Fresh Prince of Bel-Air’, I can’t wait to see how the revamped version, titled Bel-Air, will continue in its third season with Jabari Banks as Will. With summer in full swing, it feels like a perfect time for Will to embark on his free-roaming break patrol now that school is out.

In the second half of August, Peacock offers a plethora of movies, starting with John Woo’s latest action extravaganza, “The Killer.” This film is a fresh action spectacle from the talented director who has given us hits like “Face/Off” and “Mission: Impossible 2.” “The Killer” makes its exclusive debut on Peacock starting August 23. Following closely on August 30 is the premiere of another Peacock exclusive, “The Fall Guy.” In both the original and extended versions, Ryan Gosling and Emily Blunt dive headfirst into high-octane stunts in director David Leitch’s tribute to the unsung heroes of the action film industry. The Extended Cut includes an additional 20 minutes of thrilling action sequences.

As a gaming enthusiast, I’m super hyped about the upcoming movies on Peacock this August! Mark your calendars for August 9th, as that’s when Focus Features’ “The Bikeriders,” featuring Austin Butler, Tom Hardy, Jodie Comer, and Norman Reedus, will premiere. And let’s not forget about Jack Black lending his voice to the martial arts master Po in DreamWorks’ animated family adventure, “Kung Fu Panda 4,” which is already streaming!
