Netflix Will Release A New Original Movie Every Week of 2021


Netflix is taking its original content to the next level this year by releasing a new movie every week throughout 2021.

Speaking to Deadline, Netflix Head of Original Films Scott Stuber said, "We're most excited about the accumulation of different things. We like our continuation in the YA space with All The Boys and Kissing Booth in a genre we've helped reignite, this Fear Street trilogy we've got with Chernin Entertainment, as we work out the cadence of how we release them. It's something we've never been able to do before, where they are in close proximity and you can see a film trilogy in short order as opposed to the usual every two years."

"We had a big year in action last year, and we're excited about Red Notice and the idea of making a big global PG-13 action movie with this group of talent should be a big moment for us," he added. "I'm excited about Zack Snyder coming back around on the zombie genre he and I worked on in our early days with Dawn of the Dead at Universal, and Army of Dead is going to be fun. I'm excited about The Harder They Fall, a Western with Idris Elba and Regina King and Jay-Z producing and doing the music for us and reinventing that genre, and Don't Look Up with McKay and Leo and Meryl and the all-star cast he put together."

Other Netflix original films coming this year include The Woman in the Window, Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Movie, Sony Pictures Animation's Wish Dragon, The Princess Witch 3, Trollhunters: Rise of the Titans, and the musical tick, tick...BOOM.

"These are great films that will allow us to make a lot of noise this year," Stuber said. "I'm thrilled to have Jane Campion's next film, she's someone I always looked up to and getting to work with her has been a true highlight for me and the team. And Lin-Manuel, to be the home of his directing debut, is a big moment for us as a company. It's nice to come back in the new year and feel like you've got the opportunity to generate some excitement."
