Everything coming to Netflix in April 2024

Two boys sit in an office in Dead Boy Detectives.
Netflix

March is almost over, and while it didn’t win a lot of Oscars this year, Netflix is still a winner in terms of popularity. That’s primarily due to its diverse slate of hits and critically acclaimed movies and shows, which range from The Gentlemen, Guy Ritchie‘s action-comedy series, to Damsel, a fantasy movie starring Millie Bobby Brown.

Netflix plans to maintain its dominance with its April programming slate, the best yet this year. The month starts with a bang with the premiere of Ripley, a new limited series that adapts the popular novel and 1999 movie The Talented Mr. Ripley, and the debut of Scoop, a drama based on the real-life scandal involving Prince Andrew’s controversial interview with the BBC. The month ends with the highly anticipated adaptation of the popular Neil Gaiman comic book series Dead Boy Detectives and the second part of Zack Snyder’s Rebel Moon films. Check the list below for everything coming to Netflix in April 2024.

What’s new on Amazon Prime Video in October 2024
A man and a woman share a drink in "Challengers."

Amazon Prime Video finally got around to letting subscribers know what was coming in October ... but only after waiting for the month to start. That's a very sloppy way to begin October, especially when Prime Video boasts a large selection of new and returning library titles. All of the James Bond movies are back, for example. Even some Hulu original films are guest starring this month, including Vacation Friends and Deep Water.

Since it's the Halloween season, you may interested in catching some of this month's horror flicks, including The Silence of the Lambs, Doctor Sleep, The Thing, The Witch, and The Boogeyman. Citadel, the spy action franchise that didn't get much traction in 2023, is getting a spinoff, Citadel: Diana, on October 10. At the beginning of the month, Zendaya's romance movie, Challengers, is coming to Prime Video, and on October 24, Kate Beckinsale is starring in the Amazon original action movie Canary Black.

Thankfully, we've got you covered with three great movies available on the streaming service that are definitely worth checking out. If you're an Amazon Prime subscriber, you've already got access to these movies and many more that will help you while away your weekend.

The 50 best shows on Netflix in October 2024
The cast of Yellowjackets in happier times.

Netflix certainly knows how to start off a month on a strong note. It doesn't matter that Yellowjackets was already a hit on Showtime because now it's one of the most popular shows on Netflix, and poised to be even bigger than it was before. Similarly, S.W.A.T. is a CBS cop drama that proved to be too popular for the network to cancel — and it's tried! S.W.A.T. season 7 is now streaming on Netflix ahead of the season 8 premiere on CBS later this month.

Last week's new arrivals, Nobody Wants This and Mr. McMahon, have also proven to be resilient performers for Netflix. Streaming is a hit-driven medium, and no other outlet has the same track record as Netflix when it comes to putting out fresh blockbuster shows every month. And this is just the beginning of the month. There are more series coming in October, but for now, these are the best shows on Netflix.
