What to Stream: 'Outer Banks,' Anthony Hopkins' Classical Album and Anne Hathaway's 1st 2026 Movie

Outer Banks ends its run as Anthony Hopkins releases a debut classical album and other new films, series and games roll out this week.

  • Academy Award winner Sir Anthony Hopkins releases his debut album, 'Life Is a Dream,' Friday via Decca Records, a 12-track classical collection conducted by Gustavo Dudamel and recorded in London.
  • Inspired by memories of growing up in Margam, Wales, the album reflects the surrounding farmland and meadows Hopkins experienced in the 1940s, with pieces composed over six decades but never published until now.
  • The 88-year-old Welsh superstar has been open about past struggles with alcoholism, writing in his memoir that addiction brought out 'a brutal side of me' and affected his early career and personal relationships.
  • A 1975 incident where he realized he could have 'taken out a whole family' driving while blacked out prompted him to seek help; Hopkins later stated the 'craving for drink left me.'
  • While Hopkins began acting almost 70 years ago and won four Baftas, he stated in a statement that music was actually his 'first desire,' marking a return to his initial creative vocation.
