With 2020 now coming to an end – thank goodness – and a new year finally in sight, it’s time to begin looking forward to what all the various streaming platforms will be bringing us to kick off 2021 with. And after Disney Plus was first out of the gate to announce their lineup yesterday, Netflix has now followed, revealing a huge range of content set to drop in January that consists of hit movies, beloved TV shows and a whole lot more.
Of course, the 1st of the month is the busiest day and brings mostly licensed titles with it, as is often the case. But the following days look to keep up the momentum, with a ton of exciting films and television series on the way, all combining for what appears to be a fantastic month of new content.

So, where to begin? Well, like we said above, the 1st is mostly made up of licensed titles, with highlights including underrated Jesse Eisenberg comedy 30 Minutes or Less, Steven Spielberg classic Catch Me If You Can and two Martin Scorsese gems in The Departed and Goodfellas, among many others.
Moving on, and the 7th brings us Shia LaBeouf’s new film Pieces of a Woman, while the 10th delivers cult favorite Spring Breakers. Elsewhere, on the 11th we get the incredible comedy-drama The Intouchables, and Robin Williams movie beloved Hook will be added on the 15th.
We can continue on, of course, but as you can see already, there’s no shortage of fantastic content on the way. And we haven’t even mentioned the hugely anticipated third season of Cobra Kai yet. Suffice it to say, no matter which genre your interests lie in, you’ll surely be able to find something to stream on Netflix next month.
