What’s Coming to Paramount+ in July 2023: ‘Special Ops: Lioness,’ ‘Zoey 102,’ ‘I Wanna Rock’ Documentary

The highly anticipated spy thriller “Special Ops: Lioness” arrives on Paramount+ on July 23. The original series from Taylor Sheridan is based on a true story and stars Zoe Saldaña, Laysla De Oliveira, Nicole Kidman, and Morgan Freeman. De Oliveira plays a CIA undercover operative, a “lioness,” charged with befriending someone close to a high-value enemy target, a key member of a state terrorist organization.

Also coming to Paramount+ next month will be a reunion filled with humor and romance. New film “Zoey 102” will premiere on July 28 and reunite many of the cast members from the beloved high-school series “Zoey 101.” The gang is getting back together in Malibu to attend Logan and Quinn’s wedding, but that is not the only romance in the air. Jamie Lynn Spears, Sean Flynn, Christopher Massey, Erin Sanders, and Abby Wilde star in the sequel film.

If you like your summer programming with a little more guitar and hair spray, the streaming service will premiere a new documentary series “I Wanna Rock: The ’80s Metal Dream” on July 18. The three-part look at hair metal from the 1980s features John Corabi of Mötley Crüe, Janet Gardner from Vixen, record executive Vicky Hamilton, Dave ‘Snake’ Sabo of Van Halen, and Kip Winger from Winger as five young dreamers chase stardom in the cutthroat world of ’80s metal. Some will succeed, some will fail, but each will make you see an entirely new side of the metal genre.
