Even with Netflix’s recommendation algorithm serving you new movies, new TV shows, and original programming tailored to your viewing habits, the streaming service’s fire hose of content makes what’s coming difficult to parse.
This month brings the movie adaptation of 2005 YA dystopian novel Uglies. Better late than never! There’s also new seasons of Emily in Paris and Selling Sunset. Zack Snyder’s Twilight of the Gods also premieres. From the back catalogue, have a Jaws marathon or watch Channing Tatum thrust his hips as Magic Mike.
