The Mummy

Tom Cruise leads the Universal reboot of the classic monster film as Nick Morton, an Army sergeant who secretly loots antiquities from Iraqi war zones. Directed by Alex Kurtzman, the modern-day take also stars Sofia Boutella (who started her career as a dancer for Madonna and Rihanna), Russell Crowe, Annabelle Wallis, Jake Johnson and Courtney B. Vance. The film is the catalyst title of the Dark Universe, the series of interconnected movies that will include Johnny Depp’s Invisible Man, Javier Bardem’s Frankenstein's Monster and a Bride of Frankenstein remake, among many others.

Orange Is the New Black (Friday, Netflix)

To hear creator Jenji Kohan tell it, her cast of Orange Is the New Black was furious when she decided to kill off a major character last season. That death drives the entire new season of the provocative prison dramedy, now streaming its 13 episodes. The show picks up right where it left off, with inmate Daya (Dascha Polanco) pointing a loaded gun at one of the guards during an all-out prison right. "The collective stakes for the first time are heightened," says Taylor Schilling (Piper Chapman) of the inmates taking over the prison and flipping the script on the guards. The season, which unfolds in three days, provides some of the best material for a handful of characters most impacted by the loss, according to THR's review. | Where last season left off | How this season will find justice for the one they lost

Real Time With Bill Maher (Friday, 10 p.m. on HBO)

The HBO host makes his return to TV with his first show following his use of the N-word on-air last weekend. Maher's remark sparked an immediate backlash online, with Democratic Sen. Al Franken canceling his appearance due to the slur. Ice Cube, who had already been booked on the show, is still set to appear. "You'll see me on there Friday, and I'll say what I gotta say," he said. Maher has since apologized for his comment. | Why Maher shouldn't be fired, according to Kareem Abdul-Jabbar
