Every New Movie and Show Hitting Netflix This Week, Starting April 6
April Fool’s is over—the bingeing begins. After the April 1 deluge, Netflix is rolling out a fresh wave this week, delivering solid new picks to keep your queue humming all month.
We survived April Fool's and that giant April 1 content dump. Now comes the first full week of April on Netflix, and while the biggest wave already hit, there are still some solid pulls here — especially if you're in a movie mood. TV folks are covered too, and yes, Netflix keeps leaning into live sports.
The quick hits
Movies take the lead. 'IF' — the live-action /animated fantasy from John Krasinski — lands as the easy family pick. On the other end of the spectrum, horror fans get a one-two: the original 'Scream' and 'A Quiet Place Part II' (so, scream now, be quiet later). If you're more into reality drama, 'Temptation Island' Season 2 shows up, and Portuguese series 'Turn of the Tide' is back for Season 3. Boxing fans should circle Saturday for Tyson Fury vs. Arslanbek Makhmudov — Netflix continuing its push into live events is notable, and a little unexpected if you've been away from the app for a minute.
There are also some niche drops tucked in: a new Sheng Wang stand-up special, an 'Untold' entry about chess, and a scammer doc that sounds exactly like the kind of thing you throw on and then Google for an hour afterward.
