Upcoming Netflix Releases to Hit Screens in March 2025: Ten Shows Worth Investing Your Time In
Netflix continues to impress with its endless supply of content, and February was no exception. With a plethora of new series and movies, it was hard for viewers not to spend their evenings binge-watching.
Leading the pack were two new series featuring Robert De Niro and Kate Hudson, sure to please fans of their work. Adding to the excitement, Netflix announced several crossover titles, including a live-action series set in the Extraction universe starring Omar Sy. Another fan-favorite, Peaky Blinders, will also be making its way to the streaming giant, with an original Netflix film featuring Cillian Murphy in the works.
But wait, there's more! Netflix also announced adaptations of two huge franchises: Nobel Prize-winning author John Steinbeck's classic 1952 novel East of Eden and the original film Fatherhood. The latter will be co-developed by Sony, with Kevin Hart executive producing but possibly not starring in the televised role.
For anime lovers, Netflix will be releasing an animated series based on Stephenie Meyer's novel Midnight Sun, a part of the Twilight universe. This adaptation will retell the Twilight story from the perspective of Edward Cullen, promising a fresh take on the beloved franchise.
