What's New To Amazon Prime Video For August 2019: Movies, Originals, And TV Shows

Amazon offers up more than just quick and free shipping on items, there is a whole streaming service with movies, TV shows, and originals. And with August finally rolling around, Amazon Prime Video has revealed what's coming to its service for the month. There are a few movies and a new original series you're going to want to check out.

At the end of the month, on August 30, Season 1 of the Amazon Prime original Carnival Row comes to the service. At this year's Comic-Con, there were plenty of ads and parties that involved the new series in some fashion. The series stars Orlando Bloom and Cara Delevingne and takes place in a fantasy world inhabited by both humans and mythological creatures. These beasts aren't free, however, and they're forbidden to live their lives or love anyone. A string of murders by a monster causes the city the show takes place in to delve into chaos as the peace treaty between humans and creatures collapses.

Early on in the month, there are a few selections you might be interested in. On August 2, 300 arrives, so you can watch it again and yell, "This is Sparta," just like you did throughout all of 2006. Also, comedian Jim Gaffigan has a new comedy special arriving on August 16 you'll want to check out.

However, the majority of Amazon's content arrives on August 31, when it dumps a ton of new movies onto its service. There are plenty of notable selections including Hellboy II: The Golden Army, 2014's Godzilla, Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist, and the sci-fi classic The Fifth Element.

Check out everything coming to Amazon for August below, and make sure to see what Netflix has in store for that month as well.
