What is coming up on AMC in April 2026?
AMC’s April 2026 schedule is anchored by the highly anticipated series premiere of The Audacity on April 12, a darkly comedic Silicon Valley satire from Succession writer Jonathan Glatzer that follows the cutthroat power struggles of the tech elite. The month also marks a significant transition for the network's established dramas, as the acclaimed Navajo noir Dark Winds concludes its fourth season on April 6, and the gritty crime saga This City Is Ours reaches its violent climax on April 23. Viewers can also look forward to the debut of the Sean Bean-narrated true-crime docuseries Original Gangsters on April 9, alongside the return of the dark dramedy SisterS for its second season on April 22. While horror fans can indulge in Shudder’s "Halfway to Halloween" event throughout the month, the network is holding its biggest heavy hitters for the summer, with the return of the horror anthology The Terror: Devil in Silver set for May 7 and the third season of the Anne Rice Immortal Universe hit, The Vampire Lestat, premiering on June 7.
