It looks like viewers will get everything from brand new comedies, action-thrillers, book adaptations, musicals, teen rom-coms, family flicks and at least one holiday movie, Falling for Christmas starring Lindsay Lohan.
According to Netflix, these fresh titles will be "dropping every single week."
Other films shown in the trailer include Day Shift, Guillermo del Toro’s Pinocchio, The Mother, The School For Good and Evil, Tall Girl 2, End of the Road, Hustle, We Have A Ghost, Me Time, and The Takedown, to name a few.
As reported by Deadline, the feature slate for this year includes at least 86 movies, 16 more than last year’s 70 titles. This means that Netflix will be releasing an average of two movies a week comprised of 61 English language narrative movies, 20 non-English titles, and five animated features.
