Netflix this week (November 24-30) plans to add 17 new TV shows and movies to its streaming lineup, including 14 originals.
The new titles will include The Irishman (pictured above), the long-awaited Netflix original movie directed by Martin Scorsese and starring Robert DeNiro, Al Pacino, Joe Pesci and Harvey Keitel. The film chronicles the real-life deathbed confession of a Teamsters official who claims to have killed former Teamsters boss Jimmy Hoffa.
The Irishman, which is playing in select theaters, makes its streaming debut on Netflix on Wednesday, November 27. Critics who have seen the film are nearly unanimous in praising it as a worthy successor to Scorsese’s GoodFellas and Casino, two crime dramas considered among the best ever in the genre.
