The 2026 Gothic Watchlist: Goth-Coded Film and Television
A year of unhinged storytelling and sequels for the darkly inclined.

The year ahead looks deliciously chaotic, which is exactly what we want from our screens. Hollywood is still deep in its remake era, and 2026 leans into the trend with a slate that feels theatrical in all the right ways.
Wuthering Heights rises first with a fresh retelling that promises stormy obsession. Scream 7 follows with blood and meta bravado. The Bride builds upon 2025’s luxurious, heartbreaking retelling of Frankenstein. The Devil Wears Prada makes a high-fashion comeback. The Odyssey gets a modern edge. And, Practical Magic stirs again with renewed enchantment.
Television keeps pace as familiar worlds expand with new chapters. A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms adds fresh armour to the Game of Thrones universe. Bridgerton heats up the winter with season four. Euphoria descends later in the year with a long-awaited third season already subject to fan-fic plot theory. House of the Dragon storms again in June. And, The White Lotus is rumoured to be shooting it’s next season in France.
It’s a lineup built for nostalgia, inviting your favourite characters and stories to curl up with you on the couch.
