Another six titles just landed on Netflix today making this week one of the busiest for new releases in quite some time. It’s a mix of content added to Netflix in the US today so let’s take you through some highlights and give you the full list of new movies and series on Netflix for March 18th, 2020.
We’re not sure exactly why this week has been so busy with new releases, some may point to Coronavirus but that seems unlikely as these contracts are lined up well in advance.
