Prime Video's collection of old and new movies and TV shows is second to none, and it's constantly growing and evolving. 
Add to that a solid mix of interesting, genre-spanning original content that ranges from anime to blockbuster comedies to live sports, and the platform proves it really does have something for everyone. 
This month, the hit series Reacher, based on the Lee Child book series, is back for a fourth season, with Alan Ritchson returning in the title role. 
Prime Video is also releasing lots of YA drama, with the new series Sterling Point and the feature film The Last Sunrise both premiering this month. 
Here's a look at what we're most excited for on Prime Video in August. 
Aug. 
5 
Sterling Point (Season 1) 
Teenager Annie Jacobson (Ella Rubin) and her twin brother (Keen Ruffalo) have spent their lives in New York City, raised by a loving adoptive father (Jay Duplass). 
But when Annie inherits her mysterious, estranged grandfather's island in Canada, the family relocates, and Annie finds new friends, romance and a whole new world opening up. 
All eight episodes of the teen drama arrive on Wednesday. 
Aug. 
9 
The Chosen in the Wild with Bear Grylls 
Survivalist-adventurer-TV host Bear Grylls is on a new adventure, and this time he’s taking a group of actors with him. 
In the new Prime Video series The Chosen in the Wild with Bear Grylls, Grylls is joined by the cast of The Chosen, the long-running Biblical history series that’s now streaming on Prime. 
They're in for a series of challenges across forests, deserts and canyons. 
The Chosen in the Wild with Bear Grylls will drop all six episodes of the season on Sunday. 
Aug. 
12 
Reacher (Season 4) 
That nomadic beefcake Reacher is back for another adventure in the fourth season of Reacher, out on Aug. 
12. 
This season is based on Gone Tomorrow, the 13th book in Lee Child’s best-selling book series, and finds Reacher (Alan Ritchson) pulled into a dangerous and deadly game when an encounter with a stranger on the subway goes awry. 
Three episodes will drop on Aug. 12, with new episodes arriving weekly after that. 
And if you love the Reacher universe, mark your calendar because the show’s spinoff about Reacher’s investigative partner Frances Neagley will also be out soon. 
Neagley, starring Maria Sten, will debut on Sept. 
16.

Novak Djokovic: The Wolf in Winter 
In men’s tennis, three names dominated the game over the past 25 years: Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal and Novak Djokovic. 
Of those three, only Djokovic is still playing competitively, and at age 39, he impressively still remains one of the top seeds in the world. 
In this new Prime Video documentary, cameras follow Djokovic at home and behind the scenes at major tournaments, and it features interviews with those who know him best. 
You'll hear from some of his fiercest rivals to understand what makes the talented and often polarizing player tick.

The Last Sunrise 
Author Anna Todd gave us the wildly popular After book series. 
Another one of her books, The Last Sunrise, is now a movie, too. 
In The Last Sunrise, Maia Reficco stars as Ry, a college student with a chronic illness that is worsening. 
When she and her mother (Eva Longoria) take a trip to Mallorca, Ry falls for a local named Julián (Fernando Lindez) and her priorities begin to shift. 
What began as a family trip becomes a trip of self-discovery and romance. 
The film will be streaming on Prime Video on Aug.
