What’s New on Netflix in August 2025

Netflix's August lineup has a little something for everyone. Wednesday, the fantasy series starring Jenna Ortega as Wednesday Addams, returns on Aug. 6 with the first half of season two, while season two of reality show Love Is Blind: UK arrives on Aug. 13. Football season kicks off with two sports docu-series: SEC Football: Any Given Saturday (Aug. 5) shows what happened behind the scenes with SEC players and coaches during the 2024 season, while America's Team: The Gambler and His Cowboys (Aug. 19) tells the story of Jerry Jones and the Dallas Cowboys. And Long Story Short (Aug. 22) is a new animated comedy series from the creator of BoJack Horseman.

Also coming in August is Katrina: Come Hell and High Water, a documentary executive produced by Spike Lee with first-person accounts and archival footage showing the hurricane's devastation and recovery. The documentary slate also includes The Truth About Jussie Smollett? (Aug. 22), from the producers of Tinder Swindler.

Netflix's biggest film title for the month is The Thursday Murder Club (Aug. 28), a whodunit based on Richard Osman's titular novel. The movie was directed by Chris Columbus—who was responsible for such titles as Home Alone, Mrs. Doubtfire, and several Harry Potter films—and stars Helen Mirren, Pierce Brosnan, Ben Kingsley, and Celia Imrie as retirees who spend their time solving cold-case murders.

Netflix is also adding various film franchises, including American Pie, Jurassic Park, Rush Hour, and The Fast and the Furious, in August.

Here's everything coming to Netflix in August, and everything that's leaving.
