We might only be a month in, but it’s already been a busy year for Netflix – and there’s a lot more to look forward to as we head into February.
One of the undoubted highlights is the new limited series Inventing Anna, which sees Ozark star Julia Garner play notorious con-women Anna Sorokin – who defrauded banks, hotels, and wealthy acquaintances out of millions of pounds by posing as a wealthy German heiress named Anna Delvey.
And there’s good news for fans of Vikings – spin-off series Vikings: Valhalla, which is set around a century after the events of the epic Norse saga, debuts towards the end of the month, and promises to be every bit as big as its predecessor.
There’s also the return of Steve Carell comedy Space Force, hit dating series Love Is Blind and popular drama Sweet Magnolias, not to mention a whole host of brand new shows from around the world.
As for films, new releases include Jean-Pierre Jeunet’s sci-fi flick Bigbug and the latest reboot of The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, while older films including Meet the Parents, Brokeback Mountain, and The Peacemaker all join the platform.
