Netflix is the only streamer that can reliably drop a new movie almost every week of the year. And Netflix still draws top talent to its films as well.
This summer, Netflix is once again flexing its cinematic muscles with a lineup of original movies that are box-office worthy. But they’re skipping theaters entirely.
To help you make your summer viewing plans, the Watch With Us team has put together our list of the five most anticipated Netflix movies of summer 2025.
Our picks include a romantic dramedy, a very adult animated movie, an action flick, and two comedies. And these are only five of the movies coming to Netflix this summer. If you can’t find something you want to see here, Netflix will always have more options for you.

The rest of Andy’s team still retains their immortality, but they’ve also attracted the attention of Discord (Thurman), the first immortal. She’s disgusted by the way Andy’s team fights for mortals, and she’s going to put a stop to it. Discord knows almost all of their secrets and how to hurt them. What she may not know is that Andy’s status as a mortal may give her the key to beating Discord.
