Netflix is bracing for a very big year for its original movies.
The streaming giant, which won 2025 with its animated original film “KPop Demon Hunters” and collected critical acclaim for awards contenders like “Frankenstein” and “Jay Kelly,” is preparing for perhaps its biggest year ever.
What’s included in Netflix’s 2026 film slate?
Well, everything from Brad Bird’s long-in-the-works sci-fi epic “Ray Gunn” to Millie Bobby Brown returning for “Enola Holmes 3.” There’s also a Robert De Niro thriller produced by the Russo Brothers (“The Whisper Man”), Alan Ritchson in a high-concept sci-fi movie (“War Machine”) and Charlize Theron going up against a psychotic Taron Edgerton in the Australian outback (“Apex”).
There are also movie spinoffs of Netflix favorites “Heartstopper” and “Peaky Blinders,” a thriller with Denzel Washington and Robert Pattinson (“Here Comes the Flood”) and, perhaps the biggest Netflix movie of the year, Greta Gerwig’s “Narnia,” starring Emma Mackey, Carey Mulligan and Daniel Craig, based on C.S. Lewis’ classic fantasy series.
Wondering what else there is to look forward to on Netflix in 2026? Read on to find out.
