What To Watch July 26, 2025: Wolverine’s Anniversary And Netflix’s Best Rom Com

Just because there isn't anything new doesn't mean you have to watch the paint dry.

July is almost over!

Because this is a season where most people are spending at least some of their time outdoors, there isn’t as much new content to consume. That’s good, I promise. But just in case you’re still stuck at home and want something to binge before bed, I’ve got some stellar suggestions.

This is the anniversary of two big Wolverine movies

Disney Marvel

The timing of this makes you wonder if it was on purpose. See, 12 years ago, The Wolverine came out. It was the second solo Wolverine movie after X-Men Origins: Wolverine. Then, 11 years later exactly (aka, a year ago today), we got Deadpool & Wolverine. Coincidence? Probably. But that doesn’t mean you can’t queue up both of these great movies on Disney+ tonight to get some Hugh Jackman action goodness.

For summer love, check out my favorite Netflix rom-com

Netflix

I’m a big lover of romantic comedies. That means I’ve seen a lot of them. And yet, here I am with a favorite rom-com of all time that also just happens to be a Netflix Original. Happiness for Beginners is about a woman (Ellie Kemper) who needs a fresh start after her divorce. She signs up for a beginner’s backpacking trip only to find out that her younger brother’s best friend (Luke Grimes) has signed up, too. This is the perfect movie for when you want summer vibes, nature, a great ensemble cast, and a sweet romance.

Happy watching!
