May is going to start out on a very slow note for movie lovers on Netflix, with only 13 new titles arriving on the first of the month. Five of which are Twilight films! And if you want to feel old, the 20th anniversary of Twilight is just three years away.
The overall film additions may be lacking in May, but the TV options are another story. The premiere of Sirens will be joined by new seasons of Big Mouth, Blood of Zeus, and Love, Death & Robots.
To help you make your viewing plans for the month, we’ve put together a complete roundup of what’s new on Netflix in May 2025 and everything that’s leaving at the end of the month. Our picks for the month are in bold.
If you’re looking for some additional guidance on what to watch, we also have lists of the best movies on Netflix and the best shows on Netflix. If Netflix isn’t your only streaming service, we also have helpful articles on the best new movies to stream, the best new shows to stream, the best movies on Amazon Prime and the best TV shows on Amazon Prime, as well as plenty of guides for Hulu, Disney+, and HBO Max.
