Happy New Year everyone again! Despite a complicated wake-up call, we’re getting back to good old SVOD news habits with this week’s Netflix releases. To close out the month of December, the company added two anticipated series: Berlin and The Pokémon Receptionist. The first is a spin-off of La Casa de papel starring one of the iconic characters of the Spanish series and the second is an ambitious stop-motion project about small creatures to hunt and collect. Discover now all the films, series and documentaries that were added from January 1st to 7th, 2024.

The new Netflix releases for January 2024 began with “Tomorrow It All Begins.” A dramatic comedy starring Omar Sy in the role of a die-hard party animal who is forced to take on greater responsibility overnight by becoming the father of a little girl. Shooting Stars, a film about LeBron James’ youth adapted from the book Shooting Stars: How Four Friends and I Brought a Championship Home, is available this Tuesday, January 2nd. Caleb Mclaughlin (Stranger Things) and Algee Smith (Euphoria) star in this Peacock production about one of basketball’s biggest stars.
A little later in the week, on January 4th, Netflix’s Week 1 releases will be marked by the addition of the feature film The Circle of Snows. A disaster film by Juan Antonio Bayona (The Orphanage, The Impossible…), inspired by the true story of the crash of Uruguayan Air Force Flight 571 in 1972 in the Andes. In this terrible accident, 16 survivors managed to escape despite the extreme conditions. The director of Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again will screen his romantic comedy Ticket to Paradise starring Julia Roberts, Georgle Clooney and Kaitlyn Dever, which we may see in the second season of The Last of Us.

Netflix series of the week from January 1st to 7th, 2024 (S1)
After Prime Video’s Uncovered series, Netflix is taking on another Harlan Coben novel, Fool Me Once, for its show Double Trap. An eight-part miniseries that tells the story of Maya Stern (Michelle Keegan), a former soldier struggling to recover from the murder of her husband (Richard Armitage). But her life is turned even more upside down when she thinks she sees her late husband through the camera recently installed to spy on her nanny.
Michelle Yeoh, who starred in 2022’s Everything Everywhere All at Once, is returning to The Sun Brothers. “When his family is attacked, a member of a Taipei triad travels to Los Angeles to protect his strong-willed mother and his brother, who knows nothing of his activities.”. If you believe the trailer, there should be a fair amount of fighting. Trigger Studio (Cyberpunk Edgerunners) will adapt the Glutons & Dragons manga. Finally, the other big addition will be part 2 of The Creature of Kyŏngsŏng.
