Viola Davis, G20 Ilze Kitshoff/Prime As our president continues to do whatever it is he's doing, you might wish he were more like Viola Davis in the Amazon Prime Video action thriller G20, in which the Oscar winner plays the American president during a terrorist takeover of the G20 summit. But instead of hiding behind bodyguards, she shoots her way out! She's got my vote.
Also coming to the streamer in April is the new series Étoile, from Gilmore Girls' Amy Sherman-Palladino, a ballet drama that's as light on its feet as it is with its tongue, and the supernatural drama The Bondsman, starring Kevin Bacon as a demon-slaying bounty hunter. And making the move from the Amazon-owned MGM+ to Prime Video is Nickel Boys, the Academy Award-nominated film from RaMell Ross. Below, you'll find our picks for the best shows and movies to watch on Amazon Prime Video in April, as well as everything coming to Prime Video this month.

(Is there a catch?) Now he's hunting down wayward demons and sending them back to hell, while giving life — and country music (!?!?)
— a second chance. [Trailer] [The Bondsman review] Here's another big action movie that is good enough for Prime Video, but maybe not good enough for theaters. In the thriller, Viola Davis plays the U.S. president when the G20 summit, being held in Cape Town, South Africa, comes under attack by terrorists.
It's time for the president to kick some butt! Anthony Anderson, Antony Starr, and Ramón Rodríguez also star. [Trailer] Amy Sherman-Palladino, the creator of Gilmore Girls and The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, brings her signature chatterbox dialogue to the world of ballet in this new eight-episode series.
Set in New York City and Paris, it follows a pair of renowned dance companies as they enact a grand plan to save their troupes by swapping stars. Charlotte Gainsbourg and Luke Kirby star.
