Pictures: Netflix
Another week is here, and it’s a little quieter than usual, but there are a few noteworthy titles from around the globe that should be on your radar over the next seven days.
In case you missed it, Netflix added over 60 titles over the past week, including 30 new movies and series for March 1st. We’re also slowly learning more titles set to arrive throughout the rest of March, so keep it locked here for the latest.
Most Anticipated New Releases on Netflix This Week
The Leopard (Limited Series)
Coming to Netflix: Wednesday
Netflix Italy has already had success in the period drama world with the release of The Law According to Lidia Poet (recently renewed for a third season). Still, the streamer is hoping to dial up that success significantly with this splashy and expensive new series The Leopard, which brings to life the seminal novel of Giuseppe Tomasi di Lampedusa.
It’s had numerous adaptations before, but Netflix’s limited series could serve as the definitive retelling. Set in the revolutionary 1860s in Sicily where Don Fabrizio, the privileged Prince of Salina, confronts the collapse of the old aristocracy amid Italy’s unification and must choose between securing his legacy by engineering a marriage between the captivating Angelica and his nephew Tancredi—thereby betraying his beloved daughter Concetta—and preserving his principles, all in a modern exploration of power, love, and the cost of progress.
Plankton The Movie (2025) Netflix Original
Coming to Netflix: Friday
This is the second Netflix Original SpongeBob movie following Sandy Cheeks last year. The focus in this follow-up turns to the incredibly evil Plankton, who, along with his computer wife, is once again on a quest for world domination. However, this time, Plankton is not the driving force and instead may just be the one tiny green thing to stop it.
All of your favorites return for this animated feature film, which sadly was leaked last year. However, we hope that doesn’t dampen its release at the end of the week.
With Love, Meghan (Season 1)
Coming to Netflix: Tuesday
After being delayed from its initial airing in January, the new lifestyle and cooking docu-series With Love, Meghan will finally premiere this week.
Privately, I’ve spoken to a few people who have seen this series ahead of its release, and given how fraught the online discussion is surrounding Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, we’re told this will do very little to change people’s minds. Some will inevitably interpret the series as incredibly hollow and fake, while others find it heartwarming. Frankly, if you’re on one side or the other of the Meghan train, this will do absolutely nothing to change your mind. All that said, this really needs to be a hit. The duo have had their Netflix deal for quite some time and haven’t produced anything beyond their first documentary that’s even featured in the Netflix top 10s.
