Netflix's genre fare will continue into the latter part of the year with The Woman in Cabin 10, a thriller starring Keira Knightley, set for fall 2025.

Guillermo del Toro has won three Oscars over his career, and Rian Johnson received nominations for writing the first two Knives Out movies.

Our Take On Netflix's 2025 Release Schedule

It's A Mixed Bag

Netflix's 2025 film slate offers a wide range of options, from action-thrillers to prestige dramas. While the streamer's genre fare is typically underwhelming, they do have some anticipated 2025 movies from exciting filmmakers – such as Rian Johnson, Guillermo del Toro, Noah Baumbach, and Kathryn Bigelow – lined up for the latter part of the year. In turn, Netflix subscribers may have to suffer through the early part of 2025 to see the light at the end of the tunnel.
