Netflix promises at least one new movie every week in 2021
Source: The Verge added 12th Jan 2021If you’re a Netflix subscriber, the company wants you to know there’s a lot of new movies coming. Netflix has 70 movies on its roster, more than Disney and Warner Bros. combined, according to the 2021 film slate the company released today. They include directorial debuts by Lin-Manuel Miranda and Halle Berry and the final installment in the To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before trilogy.
This may not end up being a complete list — Netflix is likely to acquire films throughout the year. The theatrical landscape remains shaky, and Netflix is in a prime position to purchase films that studios like Universal or Paramount may sell.
And Netflix was one of the few companies that surged as people stayed at home during a global pandemic. But with more competition in the streaming space, Netflix needs more films and television shows to vie for people’s attention and wallets.
If people can’t go to the theaters, the studios will bring movies to people. That’s the philosophy behind WarnerMedia’s recent decision to simultaneously release movies on HBO Max as they debut in theaters. Executives hope that some of those films, including Dune, The Suicide Squad, and The Matrix 4, will bring in HBO Max subscribers — and in doing so, take some of the attention away from Netflix.
Netflix has never released its slate of films all at once. But it hasn’t had this much competition before, either. WarnerMedia had its Warner Bros. and HBO Max announcement, and Disney held a massive investor day in December, firing off title after title coming to Disney Plus 2021 and 2022. Netflix, which is better at retaining subscribers, is reminding customers why they stick around: consistency and talent.
Below are the 70 films Netflix has announced for 2021. Some have previously announced release dates attached to the titles, while others are due out later in the year. Synopses for each can be found on Netflix’s site.
