The full list of all the new shows and movies coming to Netflix in May

Rory Cashin

Here are all of the new (and classic) movies and shows we’ll be enjoying for the next 31 days.

Yes, the weather is getting better, and yes, we’re allowed to move up to 20km from our home (Braveheart voice: “FREEEEEDDDDDOOOOOOOMMMM!!!”), and yes, the days being longer means we want to do more outside stuff.

But, and this is a big BUT, we will never not want more new (and old) movies and series to watch, and Netflix has just released their full line-up coming to their library throughout the month of May.
