Everything Coming to Paramount+ in June

Summer is here and things are heating up on Paramount+. We’ve reached 71 million subscribers and counting, and the coming months will only deliver more exciting and engaging content.

We kick off June with the biggest soccer event of the season: the UEFA Champions League Final. Then the real drama begins as Paramount+ Original series Mayor of Kingstown and Criminal Minds: Evolution make their thrilling returns. Producers Eminem and LeBron James deliver a riveting story about the greatest musical pirate in history and the end of an industry in How Music Got Free while our young fans join the Autobots and Decepticons on their continued adventures in Transformers: EarthSpark. Finally, the anticipation mounts as the stars hit the red carpet at 51st Daytime Emmy Awards** and 77th Tony Awards** streaming live on the service.

For a closer look at everything coming to Paramount+ in June, check out the latest edition of View from the Peak.

 

IN THE SPOTLIGHT

The ghosts of Mike McLusky’s (Jeremy Renner) past return to haunt him in the third season of the Paramount+ Original Mayor of Kingstown. The series, one of our top-performing original dramas, shakes things up as enemies old and new disrupt the already unbalanced scales of justice within the Michigan prison town.

Enter the fray when Mayor of Kingstown premieres June 2.

 

BEHIND THE STREAMS

Once a traditional procedural, Criminal Minds: Evolution’s creators are using its reimagining to uncover deeper mysteries.

“For 15 seasons we had a structure that worked and we didn’t want to break that; we wanted to build on it. And so, that’s what we’ve done in this latest iteration,” said showrunner Erica Messer. “‘Evolution’ is the perfect way to describe what we’re doing. It’s taking what we know and love about Criminal Minds, but diving deeper into the stories.”

And one of those stories is Elias Volt’s (Zach Gilford). Last season, we learned serial killer and arch-villain Voit has ties to the government unbeknownst to the Behavioral Analysis Unit, leading to his return in season two. “Zach Gilford is the entire reason that Elias Voit is back this year,” Messer added. “Zach was so compelling that we knew we had just begun to scratch the surface.”

Crack the case when Criminal Minds: Evolution returns June 6.

 

HIGH SCORE

The UEFA Champions League experienced record viewership on Paramount+ in April, being the top acquisition driver of all content on the service for the month. The excitement will continue on June 1 when soccer fans around the country will be glued to CBS Sports’ coverage as Borussia Dortmund faces 14-time winners Real Madrid at the UEFA Champions League Final live from London’s historic Wembley Stadium.

And the action won’t end there. CBS Sports begins a brand-new deal next season, keeping Paramount+ as the exclusive English-language streaming home for UEFA club soccer through 2030.

Turn on your ‘Do Not Disturb’ when the UEFA Champions League Final streams live on June 1.
