Another week means new titles, and it’s a busy week with lots of great new animation and some fantastic (and less-than-fantastic but no doubt popular) new titles coming up. Here’s everything coming to Netflix US between May 13th and May 19th, 2024.
Want to see what’s still yet to come throughout May 2024? We just updated our preview to include the recently announced games coming up, plus the addition of the Max Original series Scavengers Reign. We’re also listing all the June 2024 additions here.
In addition to all these titles coming to Netflix this week, we should also learn news about a bunch of Netflix’s upcoming slate, including many set to be announced at Netflix’s forthcoming Upfront presentation on Wednesday.
Our Most Anticipated Upcoming Titles on Netflix This Week
Thelma the Unicorn (2024)
Coming to Netflix: Friday
Serving as Netflix’s big movie this week and the big new animated movie of the quarter is Thelma the Unicorn, which serves as a musical adaptation of the best-selling children’s book of the same name.
The movie’s plot centers around a pony with big dreams of becoming a celebrity and glamorous rock star. When things don’t go her way, Thelma reinvents herself as a unicorn, which shoots her to stardom.
Bridgerton (Season 3 – Volume 1)
Coming to Netflix: Thursday
After a very long wait, Bridgerton is finally back. While we had Queen Charlotte to tide us over in 2023, the main Bridgerton series has been on hiatus now for a while and will be releasing across two parts this week and the next batch coming next month.
This new season focuses on the romance between Penelope Featherington and Colin Bridgerton.
Madame Web (2024)
Coming to Netflix: Tuesday
Last and least, we come onto Madame Web, which will make its streaming debut on Netflix following its theatrical run earlier this year.
Look, I can’t say that this is on our most anticipated list because of how good it is or that you will have a good time. I’ve included it because of the morbid fascination most will have, and check it out for the pure spectacle.
Set in the same universe as Spider-Man, this Dakota Johnson-led superhero movie sees the origin story of Cassandra Webb, who develops powers that allow her to see into the future.
