Is it that time of year again? Welcome to your very early preview of just some of the movies we think or know are coming up throughout 2027 on Netflix. Below, we’ll focus on the biggest of the big and the ones we’re most buzzed about. Here are 20 Netflix Original movies we’re expecting in 2027.
Next year’s lineup is looking incredibly stacked, thanks in part to a few highly anticipated casualties of the crowded late-2026 calendar being bumped into the new year. (Here Comes the Flood, Good Sex, and Saturn Return). Add in unprecedented exclusive theatrical windows for heavy hitters like Greta Gerwig’s Narnia, an absolute double-dose of Adam Sandler spanning both goofy comedy and gripping drama, and a treasure trove of rom-coms and pulse-pounding thrillers, and there really should be something for everyone. We’re also seeing the fruits of Netflix’s major IP acquisitions finally coming to life, from Gundam to Roald Dahl.
Disclaimer: Release dates and windows are notoriously fluid. Until a final trailer drops or it pops up on your app’s “Worth the Wait” tab, things can and will shift around the calendar.
In no particular order and noting that most of the photography below is not officially endorsed by Netflix, let’s dig in:

It was meant to be Netflix’s big holiday blockbuster of 2026, but Greta Gerwig’s Narnia moved to February, and the delay came with a historic upgrade. Instead of a short IMAX run, the film now gets a full seven-week exclusive theatrical window, the longest Netflix has ever given a film of this scale. The Barbie director adapts The Magician’s Nephew, the first story chronologically in C.S. Lewis’s series and one that has never been brought to the big screen. In turn-of-the-century London, young Digory (David McKenna) and Polly (Beatrice Campbell) are thrown into other worlds thanks to the magical meddling of Digory’s Uncle Andrew (Daniel Craig). Along the way, they unleash the evil Jadis, aka the White Witch (Emma Mackey), and witness the very creation of Narnia itself.
The cast is about as stacked as it gets. Meryl Streep is confirmed as the voice of Aslan, and Carey Mulligan plays Digory’s mother Mabel, with Ciarán Hinds and Denise Gough also on board. Gerwig has promised a distinct and beautiful visual style that does justice to Lewis’s beloved story.
