Netflix is gearing up for a triumphant 2024, promising a stellar lineup of content that includes the highly anticipated return of hits like Squid Game and Bridgerton. In its fiscal fourth quarter earnings report, Netflix not only provided a sneak peek into its content slate but also revealed a significant surge in subscribers, surpassing Wall Street’s expectations.
The streaming giant, which added a whopping 13 million subscribers during the last quarter, shared details of its upcoming content in its quarterly letter to shareholders. The lineup boasts an array of returning favorites, including The Diplomat S2, Bridgerton S3, Squid Game S2, and Empress S2. Audiences can also anticipate new unscripted series like Tour de France: Unchained S2, Love is Blind S6, F1: Drive to Survive S6, and Full Swing S2.
Netflix is set to introduce brand new shows, adding to its diverse content library. These include adaptations like 3 Body Problem, based on the bestselling novel from the Game of Thrones showrunners, Griselda starring Sofia Vergara, The Gentlemen from Guy Ritchie, Eric starring Benedict Cumberbatch, Avatar: The Last Airbender, Cien Años de Soledad from Colombia based on the novel by Gabriel García Márquez, and Senna from Brazil.
The confirmation of Squid Game’s return is particularly exciting for both subscribers and the streaming platform. The Korean-language series, a record-breaking success, garnered 265.2 million views in its first 91 days of streaming availability, making it the most-watched Netflix series to date.
In addition to the TV series, Netflix’s film division is poised for success with a compelling slate for 2024. Despite the impending departure of Scott Stuber, the chief executive of the film division, Netflix has announced a lineup that includes the Rebel Moon sequel, Back in Action with Cameron Diaz and Jamie Foxx, Carry On from Steven Spielberg’s Amblin Entertainment starring Jason Bateman and Taron Edgerton, Spellbound from producer John Lasseter, Eddie Murphy reprising his role in Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F, and Six Triple Eight starring Kerry Washington and directed by Tyler Perry.
As Netflix continues to assert its dominance in the streaming industry, the 2024 content slate signals a year of growth, innovation, and captivating storytelling.
