Crave Highlights for June: Premiere of HBO’s Euphoria, Showtime’s City on a Hill and The Loudest Voice & The Rook from Starz; Return of Big Little Lies and The Handmaid’s Tale

MUST-WATCH TITLES FOR JUNE

June 9 – HBO’s BIG LITTLE LIES *Season 2 Premiere* (9 p.m. ET)

  • HBO’s award-winning, subversive, darkly comedic drama BIG LITTLE LIES returns for a second season. The new seven-episode season explores the malignancy of lies, the durability of friendships, and the vicious ferocity of sound parenting. Created by David E. Kelley, “The Monterey Five” – Madeline (Reese Witherspoon), Celeste (Nicole Kidman), Jane (Shailene Woodley), Renata (Laura Dern), and Bonnie (Zoë Kravitz) – are joined by Celeste’s visiting mother-in-law, Mary Louise (Meryl Streep), and their husbands, Ed (Adam Scott), Nathan (James Tupper), and Gordon (Jeffrey Nordling). The new season is directed by Andrea Arnold.

June 9 – THE HANDMAID’S TALE *Double Episode Season 3 Premiere* (9 p.m. ET)

  • The third season of Hulu’s Emmy Award-winning series is available for streaming on Crave, beginning with two back-to-back episodes on Sunday, June 9 at 9 p.m. ET. Season 3 is driven by titular handmaid June’s (Elisabeth Moss) resistance to the dystopian regime of Gilead, in which she finds herself once again after opting not to flee to Canada with her baby at the end of the second season. Now, she will struggle to strike back against the regime against overwhelming odds. There will be startling reunions, betrayals and a journey to the terrifying heart of Gilead which forces all characters to take a stand, guided by one defiant prayer: “Blessed be the fight.”

June 16 – HBO’s EUPHORIA *Series Premiere* (10 p.m. ET)

  • From executive producers Drake and Future the Prince, HBO’s new drama series EUPHORIA follows a group of high school students as they navigate drugs, sex, identity, trauma, social media, love, and friendship. Zendaya leads an ensemble cast that also includes Maude Apatow, Eric Dane, Jacob Elordi, Sydney Sweeney, and more. All episodes are created and written by Sam Levinson, who also serves as executive producer. EUPHORIA is based on the Israeli series of the same name and was recently described by Vogue as “a kaleidoscopic, hyperbolic depiction of contemporary American high school life, where the youth of today are formed in a crucible of social media, online porn, and easy access to drugs of all kinds.”

June 16 – SHOWTIME’s CITY ON A HILL *Series Premiere* (9 p.m. ET)

  • SHOWTIME’s new one-hour drama series CITY ON A HILL stars Kevin Bacon as a corrupt yet venerated FBI veteran and Aldis Hodge as an assistant district attorney. Set in the early 1990s, together, the two form an unlikely alliance and ultimately subvert the entire criminal justice system of Boston. Created and executive produced by Chuck MacLean, additional executive producers include Academy Award® winner Ben Affleck and Academy Award winner Matt Damon.

June 30 – SHOWTIME’s THE LOUDEST VOICE *Limited Series Premiere* (10 p.m. ET)

  • To understand the events that led to the rise of the modern Republican Party, one must understand Fox News founder Roger Ailes. SHOWTIME’s new seven-part limited series THE LOUDEST VOICE takes on that challenge, focusing primarily on the past decade in which Ailes, played by Russell Crowe, arguably became the Republican Party’s de facto leader, while also touching on defining events in Ailes’ life, including his experiences with world leaders that gave birth to Ailes’ political career and the sexual harassment accusations and settlements that brought his Fox News reign to an end. Also starring Naomi Watts as former Fox News anchor Gretchen Carlson; Sienna Miller as Ailes’ wife Elizabeth; and Seth MacFarlane as former Fox News PR chief Brian Lewis.

June 30 – STARZ’s THE ROOK *Series Premiere* (Sundays)

  • STARZ’s new Original series THE ROOK, from Lionsgate and Liberty Global, premieres Sunday, June 30 and stars Emma Greenwell, Olivia Munn, and Joely Richardson. New episodes are available weekly (streaming Sundays and airing on the STARZ linear channel at 8 p.m. ET). The supernatural thriller tells the story of Myfanwy Thomas, a woman who wakes up beside London’s Millennium Bridge with no memory of who she is and no way to explain the circle of latex-gloved dead bodies splayed around her. When Myfanwy discovers she is a high ranking official in the Checquy, Britain’s last truly secret service for people with paranormal abilities, she will have to navigate the dangerous and complex world of the agency to uncover who wiped her memory.
