Another Simple Favor, the sequel starring Anna Kendrick and Blake Lively, arrived on Prime Video on May 1, 2025. Amazon’s announced May schedule also included documentaries, original series, licensed films, sports, music and returning episodes. This is a roundup of that historical U.S. schedule—not a guide to what remains in the catalog today.
Another Simple Favor leads the May lineup
Amazon set Another Simple Favor’s Prime Video debut for May 1, 2025. The thriller-comedy sequel to 2018’s A Simple Favor brings Stephanie Smothers (Anna Kendrick) and Emily Nelson (Blake Lively) together again on Capri, where Emily is preparing to marry an old-money businessman. Paul Feig returned to direct. Henry Golding, Andrew Rannells and Bashir Salahuddin reprise their roles.

What else was on Amazon’s May schedule?
The complete schedule went beyond the selected releases above. It included numerous licensed films arriving May 1, live sporting events, the Academy of Country Music Awards and new episodes of Leverage: Redemption season 3. Amazon specifically marked The Sexiest Man in Winnipeg as streaming in Canada, so that listing should not be treated as a general U.S. release.

Amazon’s May 1, 2025 film guide said Another Simple Favor was included with Prime membership at launch. Its stated U.S. prices were $14.99 per month or $139 per year. It also reported a six-month trial for young adults ages 18–24 and college students, followed by $7.49 monthly or $69 annually, and a 30-day trial for qualifying government-assistance recipients using Prime Access, followed by $6.99 per month. These are historical figures from Amazon’s 2025 guide, not current price information.
Rank #2
The same guide described Prime Video access through its app on smartphones, tablets, set-top boxes, game consoles and selected smart TVs, as well as through the web. A particular device is not required if you already have a compatible way to stream. Amazon’s guide describes rental and purchase options for Prime Video Store titles generally, but does not establish that Another Simple Favor was available to rent or buy; check its current listing for present-day options.
