Prime Video is all set to release its new crime-thriller series 56 Days, an adaptation of Catherine Ryan Howard’s bestselling novel.
Packed with mystery, romance, and psychological tension, the eight-episode series promises a dark, edge-of-the-seat experience.
With first-look images and global release details now revealed, excitement around the show is growing rapidly.
Prime Video has confirmed that 56 Days will begin streaming worldwide on February 18, 2026. All eight episodes will drop on the same day, allowing viewers to binge the entire story at once.
The series will stream exclusively on Prime Video, available in over 240 countries and territories. Anyone with a Prime Video subscription will be able to watch the show upon release.
The series follows Oliver and Ciara, two strangers who meet unexpectedly in a supermarket and quickly fall into an intense romantic relationship.
Fifty-six days later, investigators walk into Oliver’s apartment and discover a decomposed body. What follows is a tense, twisting investigation into what really happened.
The show features a strong ensemble cast.
The series blends multiple genres including:
Prime Video has shared first-look images showcasing the intimate early days of Oliver and Ciara’s relationship, contrasted with the stark visuals of a murder investigation. The visuals highlight the show’s tone—romantic yet unsettling.
The series is created for television by Lisa Zwerling and Karyn Usher, who also serve as writers and executive producers.
It is produced by Amazon MGM Studios in association with Atomic Monster, the company founded by horror expert James Wan, adding credibility to its suspenseful style.
Author Catherine Ryan Howard is also involved as a co-executive producer to ensure the adaptation stays faithful to the novel’s gripping twists.
