You can count on Netflix to lead the way with incredible and innovative new content like Netflix Original movies The Union and The Deliverance, in addition to Netflix Original series The Umbrella Academy: Season 4 and Emily in Paris: Season 4, Part 1, and so much more.
All month long, people have been eagerly waiting to see what new titles would be coming to Netflix. From old classics to brand new films having their premieres, Netflix is full of top-notch movies, documentaries, and comedy specials this August, but there were two that in particular stuck out above the rest. Here are the best new movies on Netflix this month.
This August, the shows on Netflix are more exciting than ever before, but two of those titles stand out above the rest. Here are some of the best new shows that Netflix is bringing your way this month.
That being the case, I've selected some top picks among the titles coming to Netflix in June, all of which can be enjoyed without leaving your living room (or whatever room(s) you keep your TV(s) in). You can read through the complete list of movies and TV shows hitting the service at the bottom of this article. Happy streaming!
In a better world, you'd be able to catch the new Richard Linklater on the big screen. Alas, Netflix swooped in and picked up the Texan auteur's "Hit Man" following its festival debut last year, which means only those who live in select cities will be able to watch it in a theater. It's what it is, as a wise guy in another Netflix movie once observed.
Remember when Chris Pratt lending his voice to an animated feature felt like a novel concept? "The LEGO Movie" turns 10 this year, yet its charms remain firmly undiminished. Set in a world of interlocking plastic blocks and tiny figurines, the film follows Pratt's Emmet Brickowski as this seemingly unexceptional LEGO minifigure gets swept into an adventure to try and stop the despotic Lord Business (Will Ferrell, playing another evil CEO nearly a decade before "Barbie") from unleashing an insidious weapon on the citizens of Bricksburg. Admittedly, writer-directors Phil Lord and Chris Miller's ode to the power of creativity didn't have quite the effect on our IP-dominated landscape that they were going for, but that's not their fault. "The LEGO Movie" is filled with breathless, energetic set pieces and relentless, ingenious sight gags, yet it's the film's self-reflexive narrative that makes it a (meta)modern classic. Give it a stream and get "Everything is Awesome" stuck in your head all over again.
Hmm, it appears we've stumbled upon a theme of family-friendly movies starring actors who currently have films in theaters. Five years before Netflix started remaking all your favorite anime multimedia franchises in live-action, "Pokmon Detective Pikachu" beat them to the punch with an entertaining "Who Framed Roger Rabbit" riff featuring the vocal talents of Ryan Reynolds. The "Deadpool" actor lends his voice to the titular crime-solving Pokmon, a coffee-chugging, lightning-shooting rascal who teams up with a former wannabe Pokmon trainer (Justice Smith) to investigate the mysterious death of the young man's father, only to stumble upon a much bigger conspiracy. "Detective Pikachu" is, if you'll forgive the Pok-pun, surprisingly effective in the way it adapts its source material into a live-action three-act narrative without sacrificing its fanciful visuals or general zaniness. Yet, despite all that and its strong commercial performance, we're still waiting on the sequel. Don't make me go full Jigglypuff and scribble all over your face, Warner Bros.
You've heard of Christmas in July, now how about "Carol" in June? Okay, it doesn't have the same ring, but Todd Haynes' 1950s-set queer winter holiday romance may provide the change of pace you're looking for. Rooney Mara stars as a doe-eyed department store employee who gets swept off her feet by the title character (Cate Blanchett), a captivating, classy older woman who's in the middle of a divorce that could get even messier, should the truth about her sexuality come to light. "Carol" captures the wonderment of falling for someone older and more worldly than you, yet it never loses sight of the underlying danger inherent to the characters' situation (no surprise there; it's based on a novel by Patricia Highsmith, the thriller maestro best known for "The Talented Mr. Ripley" and "Strangers on a Train"). Chilly yet inviting, picturesque yet never nostalgic in the way it portrays its period setting, this remains some of Haynes' finest work in a career spent subverting and challenging conventions.
We're officially in the heat of the summer and Netflix is continuing their exciting summer slate of titles coming this July. Including new episodes of hit shows, exciting new original series, and plenty of blockbuster movies. Check out our list below to see everything that is coming to Netflix in July 2024.
Lost follows the survivors of Oceanic Flight 815, which crashes on a mysterious island in the South Pacific. The diverse group must work together to survive while uncovering the island's many secrets, including a hidden hatch, a smoke monster, and other supernatural elements. Known for its complex narrative structure, the series includes flashbacks and flashforwards that provide deeper insights into the characters' backstories and their lives off the island. As they navigate the island's dangers and mysteries, the survivors form bonds and face challenges that test their limits and reveal hidden truths.
If you thought the 2022 Netflix movie releases made that year a particularly big one for the streaming platform, you would be right. Many of 2022's exclusive, feature-length releases ended up becoming some of the top trending titles on Netflix and were praised as some of the best movies released in 2022, whether or not they made it to the big screen. However, the year 2023 was just as big for the platform.
In July 2023, audiences could check out Jamie Foxx, John Boyega, and Teyonah Parris in the sci-fi comedy, They Cloned Tyrone and a spin-off of the platform's hit horror flick, Bird Box, called Bird Box: Barcelona.
More than two decades since the original, the stop-motion animated sequel Chicken Run: Dawn of the Nugget -- starring Zachary Levi as Rocky this time -- came out as a Netflix exclusive and Zack Snyder took to the stars for the space epic Rebel Moon: Part One - A Child of Fire in December 2023.

Recently, it was reported that most of the films set in the DCEU would be coming to Netflix next month, from Man of Steel to The Suicide Squad. According to a subsequent report from What's On Netflix, two more DCEU films are also set to be added in December, with Shazam! and Black Adam joining the list. The report also notes that last year's unconnected films The Batman and DC League of Super-Pets were also set to hit Netflix as well.
The other DC movies that were previously reported to be coming to Netflix starting on Dec. 1 include Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, Suicide Squad, Wonder Woman, Justice League, Birds of Prey, and Wonder Woman 1984. With Shazam! and Black Adam reportedly joining these films, the only DCEU movies that will be missing are Aquaman, Shazam! Fury of the Gods, The Flash, and Blue Beetle. The four-hour extended cut of Justice League, known as Zack Snyder's Justice League, will also be excluded, remaining exclusive to streaming on Max.
Bringing the majority of the DCEU movies to Netflix coincides with the closure of the universe the same month. As of now, the final film that's a part of that universe is Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom with the sequel set to be released on Dec. 22. Unless the film manages to become a billion-dollar movie like its predecessor, it will most likely be the end of the DCEU, as James Gunn and Peter Safran are focused on moving forward with their newly-established DCU. However, while it will be a different cinematic universe, Gunn has confirmed that there will be several actors that will be reprising their roles, but that will reportedly not include any of the members of the Justice League.
Meanwhile, the world of The Batman is just getting started with its expansion. A sequel to the hit film is currently in the works with a planned October 2025 release date. There is also a spinoff series in development at Max that focuses on Colin Farrell's Penguin, set after the events of The Batman as serving to bridge the gap between the movies. If these are successful, it's likely that more movies and spinoffs will continue to be made for what's considered to be a DC Elseworlds movie.
