Netflix has unveiled its release schedule for next year, with the US streaming company pledging to release a brand new movie every week. In total, there will be over 70 new films launching on Netflix in 2022, including the highly anticipated sequel Knives Out, which will see James Bond star Daniel Craig reprise his role as southern detective Benoit Blanc. There’s also a remake or horror classic Texas Chainsaw Massacre and an adaptation of the West End musical Matilda written by comedian Tim Minchin. All of these new films add to the barrage of box sets released this year, including new seasons of hits like Stranger Things, Bridgerton, The Crown and more.
“There’s a whole world of new stories waiting to be discovered,” Netflix boasted as it shared a preview of the movies set to launch on its streaming service in the coming months. Netflix Film is growing with all-new comedies, action thrillers, mysteries, dramas, sequels and more… releasing every week.”
Filmmakers such as Judd Apatow (Trainwreck), Guillermo del Toro (Pan’s Labyrinth), Joe and Anthony Russo (Avengers Endgame), Jean-Pierre Jeunet (Amelie) and Richard Linklater (Boyhood) will release new films on Netflix in 2022. So that the upcoming movies coming out this year will feature big Hollywood stars such as Jessica Chastain, Christian Bale, Jennifer Lopez, Colin Firth, Florence Pugh and many more stars.
The battle over subscriber eyeballs has intensified in recent months. The latest research shows that, although Netflix is still dominating in Europe, the number of new subscribers has started to decline compared to previous years, and in some European countries, Amazon’s rival service Prime Video is now more popular than Netflix.
Both Prime Video and Disney+ have a number of their exclusive new releases planned for this year, such as Amazon’s highly anticipated new Lord of the Rings series (probably the most expensive show ever filmed) as well as Star Wars. : Obi-Wan Kenobi and the sequel to The Mandalorian on Disney+.
Whether the mind-boggling number of new movies coming to Netflix this year will convince more subscribers to sign up remains to be seen. But already-subscribed moviegoers can expect to see a slew of new blockbusters. Here is a full list of Netflix 2022 movie releases…
