Netflix Is Adding 45 New Movies/TV Shows This Week

September is nearly upon us, which means that Netflix will be adding a whole host of new movies and TV shows to their content library on the first day of the month, as they continue to assert their dominance over the competition in the streaming wars. If anything, the company could do with the focus shifting to pre-existing titles after finding themselves in the headlines for all the wrong reasons recently.

As well as the huge backlash that greeted the controversial first poster for French coming-of-age drama Cuties, Netflix drew criticism after canceling popular shows I Am Not Okay With This and The Society despite previously announcing that both had been renewed for second seasons, while Altered Carbon was also axed in what looks to be just the latest in a long line of cost-cutting measures.

Viewership for all the major streaming services might have gone through the roof as a result of the Coronavirus pandemic, but it would appear that not even Netflix are immune from the financial repercussions, which admittedly isn’t a surprise when they’re splurging almost $20 billion on in-house content this year alone.

In any case, the new additions for next week feature a familiar blend of stone-cold classics, cult favorites and popular genre movies, and you can check out the full list below.

Out of the new arrivals, the Back to the Future trilogy seems the most likely to crack the Top 10 most-watched list, but based on the titles that have been dominating the chart recently, some more surprises can’t be ruled out, either, and we could well be seeing a few forgotten movies find a new lease of life on Netflix over the next several weeks.
