After only adding one new program on Saturday, Netflix have released two new movies and one new TV series today. In a week where the streaming platform continues to add a diverse range of content, today we received the films Goldie and Woodshock, as well as season 1 of Food Wars!: Shokugeki no Soma, joining K-drama It’s Okay to Not be Okay‘s premiere yesterday.
For those unfamiliar, Woodshock is an A24 title starring Kirsten Dunst as a woman who begins experiencing strange hallucinations after taking a powerful drug. Most of the action revolves around Dunst’s character Theresa taking poison-laced joints that, rather than killing her, put her in an increasingly fragile mental state that turns fantastical. While Woodshock divided critics upon its 2017 release, it looks to be worth checking out.
The other new movie today is Goldie, a Sam de Jong written-and-directed feature starring Slick Woods as the titular character, who chases a dream of being a dancer. Set in New York, Goldie picked up some decent buzz in 2019, with positive notices in Variety and the LA Times, among others.
For new series, meanwhile, we get Food Wars!: Shokugeki no Soma‘s anime, which focuses on cooking-themed battles and joins a long list of animated programs that Netflix have released this month.
For everything that hit the platform today, see below:
2 New Movies Added
