Netflix has seen something of a boom since the beginning of lockdown, and with another month of staying at home on the horizon for many, the streaming platform’s schedule of new content is remaining as packed as ever.
June sees the return of some popular original series – with 13 Reasons Why coming to a close after its fourth season, Queer Eye‘s Fab Five reuniting for a long-awaited fifth series of the hit makeover show and Ryan Murphy’s comedy drama The Politician getting a second run.
And there’s also some exciting series making their debuts this month, including The Titan Games, a new sports competition series hosted by Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson; Lenox Hill, a docuseries taking a look at the lifesaving work of four doctors at the titular hospital in New York City; and The Woods, a Polish language crime drama adapted from the Harlan Coben novel of the same name.
As far as original feature films go, there’s Will Ferrell’s long-awaited Eurovision Song Contest: the Story of Fire Saga, plus the small matter of a new film from legendary director Spike Lee – his latest picture Da 5 Bloods, which tells the story of four African American vets who return to Vietnam seeking the remains of their fallen Squad Leader, arrives this month.
We also have a new stand-up special from irreverent American comedian Eric Andre to look forward to, as well as new action thriller titled The Last Days of American Crime, an anime feature called A Whisker Away and a documentary looking at the abuse suffered by members of the USA Gymnastics team, Athlete A.
If you’re still on the hunt for Netflix’s May releases, we have the schedule.
