That pile of content material consists of all the pieces from main new originals to documentaries, actuality TV collection, worldwide releases, and way more.
For an entire rundown of all the pieces that’s hitting the streaming big over the following seven days, our month-to-month Netflix information is the proper supply to seek the advice of. It lists all the unique TV collection, motion pictures, and extra that hit the streamer every day all through the month — and, on a associated notice, our common Netflix protection additionally features a weekly evaluation of the streamer’s international High 10 TV chart (accessible under).
For now, as we’ve famous above, subscribers have 17 new titles which can be coming to Netflix between now and August 10. Our month-to-month information lists all of them — however, as a result of most of the new titles doubtless received’t attraction to mainstream audiences right here for one purpose or one other, I need to name your consideration to the 2 new releases that I’d give attention to subsequent week if I have been you:
- The fourth and remaining season of The Umbrella Academy (coming Aug. 8)
- And a feel-good documentary about man’s finest good friend, narrated by Rob Lowe — Contained in the Thoughts of a Canine (coming Aug. 9)
These are the 2 that I’d begin with and really feel like they’ve the widest and most mainstream potential. After all, subgroups of Netflix subscribers can be all for different titles coming subsequent week for this or that purpose (perhaps you simply can’t get sufficient of the UK version of Love is Blind). For these, I’d direct you to our month-to-month information.
Now, let’s dive proper in and take a better have a look at the 2 new releases I like to recommend trying out subsequent week:
First up: It’s time to say goodbye to Netflix’s superhero journey collection The Umbrella Academy, which is predicated on the comedian collection of the identical identify by Gerard Approach.
Following a bunch of estranged siblings with superpowers, reunited after their father dies, The Umbrella Academy premiered on Netflix again in 2019 and is making ready to debut its fourth and remaining season, one which options new characters and villains and appears set to exit with a bang. The brand new episodes are “actually, actually filled with traditional Umbrella Academy household nonsense and shenanigans that you just look ahead to,” Emmy Raver-Lampman, who performs Allison Hargreeves, mentioned in a Netflix promotional interview.
When it comes to the plot of the brand new season, the Hargreeves siblings have scattered after the climactic showdown on the Resort Oblivion led to a whole reset of their timeline. Continues Netflix: “Stripped of their powers, every is left to fend for themselves and discover a new regular — with wildly various levels of success. But the trimmings of their uncanny new world show too arduous to disregard for very lengthy.
“Their father Reginald, alive and properly, has stepped out of the shadows and into the general public eye, overseeing a robust and nefarious enterprise empire. A mysterious affiliation generally known as The Keepers holds clandestine conferences, believing the fact they’re residing in is a lie and a terrific reckoning is coming. As these unusual new forces conspire round them, the Umbrella Academy should come collectively one final time — and danger upsetting the shaky peace they’ve all endured a lot to safe — to lastly set issues proper.”
Subsequent, we flip to a heartwarming documentary about man’s finest good friend, which can be a companion piece/follow-up to the 2022 documentary Contained in the Thoughts of a Cat.
This time round, the main focus switches to canines, and the movie is narrated by an actor who not solely has the proper heat and approachable voice for this type of factor; Rob Lowe can be a dog-lover himself. He even starred within the 2023 Netflix film Canine Gone, a heart-on-its-sleeve story a few boy who loses his canine.
Right here’s a abstract from Netflix concerning the pupper-focused doc: “Discover the traditional and complicated human-dog relationship, reveal innovative analysis and provide at-home suggestions for canine homeowners all over the place. Following our principal characters — an excellent, tremendous skilled border collie; a precocious pug; and a lovable rescued mutt — our staff of elite canine consultants from throughout the globe, dive deep into our greatest good friend’s hidden thoughts, to reply everybody’s largest canine questions.”
I don’t learn about you, however I’ve definitely had a traumatic week and will use a supremely comforting documentary like this one, which is all about cuddly canines.
