Netflix May 2018: What’s New And What’s Leaving (VIDEO)
It’s the beginning of a new month fellow binge-watchers, and Netflix May 2018 has our backs with quite a few exciting titles to whet our collective streaming habit. The biggest hits dropping to our screens over the coming weeks include the animated irreverence of Shrek, Disney Pixar’s heartwarming afterlife adventure Coco, and The CW’s latest slate of shows, which includes the recent Scooby-Doo inclusive season of Supernatural.
Throughout the month brings forth a cascade of several favorites such as Big Red’s second outing Hellboy II: The Golden Army, the lush big-screen adaptation of The Phantom of the Opera, and Steve Carell’s comedic stylings in The 40-Year-Old Virgin. Netflix May 2018 also offers new original content in the form of the dystopian crime thriller Anon, the very John Woo-directed Manhunt, and an informative new season of Bill Nye Saves the World.
Whether one enjoys Disney or not will decide if the titles leaving Netflix May 2018 are a good or bad thing, as the company continues its foretold mass exodus from the streaming service. This month focuses on removing content related to its Disney Channel TV networks, with disappearance of titles such as High School Musical, Phineas and Ferb, and Wizards of Waverly Place: The Movie. We also say farewell to Disney’s live-action The Jungle Book near the end of the May.
Since the new Netflix May 2018 were revealed, a few exciting tidbits have surfaced regarding the streaming service, including a release window for the upcoming Witcher series, as well as an intriguing method of getting paid to binge-watch anime. Our hopes were also piqued when a fan compiled an epic trailer for a potential Overwatch Netflix series.
