Netflix next month (November 2025) plans to add 133 new TV shows and movies to its streaming lineup. Here are the three to watch, in my humble opinion:

Frankenstein (2025) – Netflix Original Film
Release Date: November 7.
Netflix is bringing new life to the old boy with Oscar Isaac starring as Dr. Victor Frankenstein, the man who taunts the gods by transforming a decaying corpse to a living creature. The film, a remake of several earlier Frankenstein tales, including the original 1931 classic starring Boris Karloff, is directed by Guillermo del Toro (The Shape of Water, Nightmare Alley), a visionary filmmaker who should give this dusty ditty a fresh perspective worth viewing. The supporting cast includes Jacob Elordi (Elvis, Euphoria) as The Creature, Scream Queen Mia Goth (Pearl) as Dr. Frankenstein’s girlfriend, and Christoph Walz as the doc’s money man.

Death By Lighting – Netflix Original Series
Release Date: November 6
Michael A. Shannon stars as the 20th president of the United States, James A. Garfield, who was assassinated by a disappointed office seeker, played by Matthew Macfadyen (Succession). The series, which chronicles the events of the Garfield presidency leading up to the assassination, is a different look for Netflix which tends to favor modern murder stories (particularly serial killers). But I’m looking forward to it (and hope that Netflix does a better job with the story than Apple did with Manhunt, the Lincoln-Booth conspiracy series.) Both Shannon and Macfadyen are intriguing actors and the supporting cast includes Betty Gilpin as Mrs. Garfield and Nick Offerman as vice president Chester Arthur.

Stranger Things – Season 5 (4 Episodes)
Release Date: November 26
The final season of the upside down world of those crazy kids begins on November 26 with four episodes dropping. Then, three more will be added on December 25 and the final episode on December 31. If you’re not familiar with Stranger Things by now, the show, which stars Winona Ryder, David Harbour and Millie Bobby Brown, follows a mysterious young girl (Brown) who opens a pathway between Earth and a hostile (very hostile) alternate dimension called the Upside Down. The series depicts a band of teenagers who assist the clueless adults in restoring order in our world. (Seasons one through four now available on Netflix.)
