New Movies & Shows To Stream This Weekend: The Good Daughter, The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives: Orange County, Being Heumann and More

This weekend’s new releases are rich with stories of strong and complex women, from the complicated relationship between two sisters, played by Rose Byrne and Meghann Fahy, in Peacock’s The Good Daughter to the boss ladies of Hulu’s The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives: Orange County. And then there’s the story of Judith Heumann, a woman more influential than any influencer, whose activism in the name of disability rights made the world a better place for millions of Americans. Her story is told in the new Apple TV biopic Being Heumann, which co-stars Ruth Madeley and Mark Ruffalo and is out today.

In the new Peacock series The Good Daughter, Rose Byrne and Meghann Fahy star as estranged sisters who share a traumatic childhood bond. They reunite in their hometown after yet another traumatic incident – a school shooting – and are forced to piece together the details of their young lives to figure out what really happened when they were younger and how it’s all connected to the latest violent event.

There’s a huge difference between Utah Mormons and California Mormons. That’s not me saying this, that’s the straight dope from the cast of the new spinoff series The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives: Orange County, which premiered on Thursday. The entire first season of the show is out now, so you can see just what the difference between the O.C. and S.L.C. really is. The cast of the new series includes some new personalities, including Ashleigh Pease, Aspyn Ovard, Avery Woods, Bobbi Althoff, Jordan McClanahan, Madison Bontempo, McCall DaPron and Salomé Andrea, along with a very familiar face, Jen Affleck.

New on Apple TV November 13: Being Heumann

Judy Heumann is an unsung hero of the disability rights movement whose efforts spanned decades and were instrumental in getting legislation passed guaranteeing equal rights for disabled Americans. Being Heumann is a new film which arrived in theaters last week and comes to Apple TV this Friday and is based on Heumann’s memoir of the same name, starring Ruth Madeley in the title role. The movie, directed by Oscar-winner Sian Heder, focuses on the 1977 sit-in that Heumann led in an effort to push for legislation recognizing and protecting citizens with disabilities.
