June sees the return of The Umbrella Academy, a new big-budget superhero film starring Charlize Theron and the first series of Cursed, a re-imagining of the screen.
With the coronavirus pandemic continuing to disrupt the TV and film industry, you’d be forgiven for thinking that Netflix might run out of series and films to add to the platform any time now – but the good news is that July still sees a wealth of new materials Overall, the biggest new Netflix movie coming to the streaming service next month is obviously The new movie premieres on July 24.
In a summer without movies in theaters, The Kissing Booth 2 will likely be the biggest movie of the summer. Literally, millions of people all over the world will be watching on July 24.
The Baby-Sitters Club, which is based on the book series of the same name by Ann M. Martin, is a new Netflix show, and it arrives on July 3, just in time for your Fourth of July binge-watch. It’s a kids series, but I have a feeling everyone is going to be watching this show for its feel-good vibes.
