Welcome to your preview of the week ahead on Netflix where we’ll be covering all the new movies and shows to hit the service between April 25th through the first of May. Lots of new releases await including plenty of new movies as we cross into a new month.
As you may also know, when the first of the month comes around we also see a lot of movies depart the service. You can see a full list of removals here but a few we’d spin up before they leave on Sunday includes the Shrek movies, both Transformers movies, The Shawshank Redemption, and The Town. Fans of Dawson’s Creek will want to speed up their binge-watches as all six seasons also depart on the first.
Best New Movies and Shows on Netflix This Week
Ozark (Season 4 – Part 2)
Coming to Netflix: Friday
Scooping 32 Primetime Emmys so far, Ozark has become one of Netflix’s most decorated shows and most beloved. It’ll be coming to a dramatic end after 37 episodes come the end of the week closing a chapter for Netflix in the crime thriller space.
Alongside the final season on Netflix, we’ll also be getting a retrospective documentary added on the same day.
Samurai Rabbit: The Usagi Chronicles (Season 1)
Coming to Netflix: Thursday
Stan Sakai’s Usagi Yojimbo comes to the big screen on Thursday with the release of a new animated series by Gaumont Animation, Dark Horse Entertainment, and other collaborators.
Here’s what you can expect from the new series:
“The series takes place in the far future, set in a world that mixes modern high-tech images with classic Japanese references. It follows the teenage Rabbit Samurai Yuichi, descendent of the great warrior Miyamoto Usagi, on his epic quest to become a true samurai. He leads a ragtag team of misfit heroes.”
