In addition to all new releases listed below, Netflix also got a new episode of The King: Eternal Monarch added today.


Mirror Mirror (2012)

Genre: Adventure, Comedy, Drama, Family, Fantasy
Director: Tarsem Singh
Cast: Julia Roberts, Lily Collins, Armie Hammer, Nathan Lane

Our first highlight today is one that didn’t get pre-announced so is a little surprising to see it dropping today.

The movie is a “remake of the classic Grimm tale follows fair-skinned Snow White on a quest to regain her royal throne with help from a team of shady dwarves.”


Extraction (2020)

Genre: Action, Drama
Director: Sam Hargrave
Cast: Chris Hemsworth, David Harbour, Golshifteh Farahani, Derek Luke
Runtime: 116 min

The big movie for Netflix in April 2020 is Extraction. The fast-paced and action-packed movie features Chris Hemsworth is one of his best roles outside of the MCU.

Critics seemed to have a mixed view on the movie but for those reviewing on IMDb, they’ve been far more optimistic. Fans of Daredevil who love single-shot action sequences will also want to check a specific setpiece out on this movie too.


After Life (Season 2)

Genre: Comedy, Drama
Cast: Ricky Gervais, Tom Basden, Tony Way, Diane Morgan

The Ricky Gervais dramedy After Life has returned to more critical acclaim with another solid season under its belt.

Six new episodes drop today and once again sees Tony struggle with his loss.

Here’s how the new season kicks off:

Determined to be kind but still struggling to be happy, Tony attends a Zen meditation course with Matt, whose own marriage is on the rocks.
