We understand that limited use of non-approved cameras may be necessary in certain situations. Netflix is available to navigate those specific image capture decisions. Please reach out to your Netflix point of contact with any questions or concerns specific to your production. For information on using Non-Approved Cameras see: Non-Approved Cameras: Recommended Settings & Best Practices.
Note: Not all cameras that meet these capture requirements are approved. These requirements are the minimum specifications necessary for a camera system to be considered for approval. Other attributes must be taken into account such as dynamic range, form factor, stability, workflow compatibility, and more.
Cameras that have been approved for Netflix productions are listed below. We will continue to maintain and update this list as new camera systems become available and are evaluated by our technologists.
While not required for Netflix productions, the following best practices will help productions avoid common pitfalls and workflow errors that can lead to added costs, lost time, or creative compromises.
To ensure on-set framing meets the creative and technical needs of your production, a framing chart should be shot before principal photography begins and processed through the dailies, editorial, and VFX pipelines.
When using anamorphic lenses, extra resolution may be required for capture. Camera selection should take this additional need into account. Cameras that meet this resolution requirement and are approved for anamorphic capture are designated in the list above. If you are unsure if your desired camera system has the necessary resolution or have questions about anamorphic capture, Netflix is here to help. Please contact your Netflix project lead to discuss implications or concerns.
In some instances, productions may require the use of approved cameras with external recorders. The recording format should be in line with minimum requirements outlined at the head of this document, and should be discussed with your Netflix point of contact.
Whether you want to make it a romantic affair (who says you can't celebrate Valentine's Day all year round?) or just sit in silence on the sofa, finding a good film is the perfect scene setter. But we get it: Finding a movie to watch with your date or partner can be a struggle. You'll be lucky if your movie tastes align perfectly, and in the early days, you don't want to force them to watch The Notebook and send them to sleep (or creep them out).
So, we scoured Netflix for some of the best, most gripping flicks you'll be talking about long after the credits roll. To help you find a movie you will both enjoy, we've put together the 33 best date night movies here. From the Hollywood hit The Wolf of Wall Street to classic rom-coms like Murder Mystery and Two Weeks Notice to the tear-jerking true stories, Lion and The Swimmers, these are the perfect date night movies for Netflix and chill.
Okay, this movie is a cheeky test to see if your partner was a Gossip Girl fan in the past because it stars the brilliant Leighton Meester. However, long gone is her ruthless alter-ego, Blair Waldorf, as, in The Weekend Away, the actress plays a concerned friend who races against time to figure out what happened to her friend after she mysteriously vanishes during a girls' trip to Croatia. You'll both be at the edge of your seats...
Jennifer Aniston? Check. Adam Sandler. Check. Suppose you can't decide what to watch during date night. In that case, you can't possibly go wrong with this comedy mystery which sees a New York cop and his wife framed for the murder of an elderly billionaire when they head on a European getaway to reignite the spark in their marriage.
It may not have won an Oscar or anything, but we still consider Maid in Manhattan a classic. I mean, it's got JLo, it's got Ralph Fiennes and also Stanley Tucci. So, this story about a Senatorial candidate falling for a hotel maid after thinking she was a socialite when he saw her trying on a wealthy woman's dress is a must-watch for date night.
When Lucy's (Geraldine Viswanathan) boyfriend breaks up with her, she is absolutely devastated. But upon meeting hotelier Nick (Dacre Montgomery), she creates a gallery where people can leave memorabilia from their failed relationships. Of course, we assume you would not need to do anything of the sort in real life, as if you're watching this on date night, you're very smitten.
Sometimes you're both looking to bond over something more moving and emotional, and nothing will pull at both of your heartstrings than The Swimmers. Based on an incredibly inspiring true story, two Syrian sisters swim for hours in the choppy Mediterranean seas to flee their war-torn home in Damascus. After reaching Greece as asylum seekers, the younger sister stays true to her swimming dreams as she trains to compete at the Rio Olympic Games.
Always Be My Maybe, starring Ali Wong and Randall Park, centres on two childhood sweethearts who don't speak for fifteen years following a falling out before running into each other in San Francisco, where they discover that old sparks are still there. Will they give their romance another shot? This movie is a lovely one to watch during date night as it hammers home the message that no matter what happens in the past, second chances can always lead to something great.
A gem of a romance movie, Look Both Ways addresses essential topics such as unexpected pregnancy and motherhood, which makes it a vital watch with your other half. Played by Riverdale star Lili Reinhart, Natalie finds herself in two parallel realities on the eve of her college graduation. One in which she moves back home to navigate motherhood in her small Texas hometown, and the mother where she moves to Los Angeles to pursue her career.
So, if you're looking for something a bit more, okay, A LOT, steamier for date night, look no further than Lady Chatterley's Lover starring Emma Corrin and Jack O'Connell. The period drama sees married aristocrat Lady Chatterley pursuing an affair with the gamekeepers on their estate after falling out of love with her husband following a war injury. Another warning: temperatures are set to soar when you watch this.
Styling Hollywood takes you inside the world of celebrity styling and interior design, courtesy of husbands Jason Bolden and Adair Curtis. Along with their team at JSN Studios, we get to see the pair work with clients like Gabrielle Union, Taraji P. Henson, and Eve. Our only complaint? The debut season has only eight episodes.
Since she is one of the funniest humans on the planet, we fully trust Tiffany Haddish to introduce us to a new batch of up-and-coming comedians in this series of half-hour stand-up specials. Another selling point? The always hilarious Wanda Sykes also produced They Ready.
The fourth season of The Crown features Oscar winner Olivia Colman in the role of Queen Elizabeth II. Plus, you get your first look at Princess Diana as a young woman struggling with her marriage and place in the royal family.
This comedy, which centers on a Korean Canadian family that runs a Toronto convenience store, is a hit with fans and critics alike for weaving sharp dialogue with cutting humor and deeply relatable family dynamics.
If you love Phoebe Waller-Bridge and Fleabag, check out the other series she wrote and starred in that also happens to be one of the most underrated best shows to watch on Netflix. The six-episode comedy follows the lives of a group of misfits who all live in a former hospital in exchange for cheaper rent.
The fast-talking shenanigans of this mother-daughter duo (Lauren Graham and Alexis Bledel) never get old. And the fact that you have the four-episode revival to revisit after you finish the original series will make this binge-watching session even more worthwhile. Pro tip: Pour yourself a cup of coffee to sip while you watch.
Musical-theater lovers (and former Gleeks), this is for you. The bitingly funny and low-key effed-up adventures of Rebecca Bunch as she tries to win back her childhood boyfriend are given a Broadway spin in this comedy-drama-musical series. And when you've finished all four seasons, you'll have an entire catalog of hilarious songs to listen to.
This spin-off of the Karate Kid franchise initially launched on YouTube, where it gained a modest but loyal following. After Netflix picked it up, it became a hit, popular with both fans of the original and teenagers discovering it for the first time. The rare male-focused family drama! Plus karate!
Clear eyes, full hearts, can't stop watching this addictive drama about a football-obsessed town in Texas. Come for Coach and Tami; stay for a young Michael B. Jordan and Jesse Plemons. This show will make you cry with sadness and with happiness, and remember, it's Leslie Knope's favorite, so what are you waiting for?
This movie is set in 1877 Wyoming, after the American Civil War. It tells the story of eight strangers seeking refuge from a blizzard in a stagecoach stopover. Our characters include a bounty hunter, a fugitive, and a sheriff. Drama and tension ensue.

This movie is based on August Wilson's 1982 play of the same name which in turn was inspired by real-life blues singer Ma Rainey. Starring Viola Davis and Chadwick Boseman, among others, the memorable performances in this movie are part of what makes it so special.
Set on a July afternoon in 1927, Ma Rainey attends a recording session at Paramount's Chicago studios. However, tensions and temperatures run high as band politics and issues of race come to the forefront.
