Here’s Everything Coming To Netflix, Stan And Foxtel This May

While neither Stan nor the Australian Netflix library has anything near the range of US streaming services, every month we get just a little more. Foxtel is also adding a number of hugely popular titles to their Anytime on-demand streaming. Read on to see all the content that will be added to their libraries during the month of May.

Netflix

This month Netflix is bringing a new original series called Marseille, along with second seasons of popular shows Arrow and Scream — and plenty of classic movies and documentaries aside. Here are some of the highlights:

Marseille:

As the municipal elections approach in Marseille, Robert Taro, the city’s Mayor for the last twenty years, prepares his last coup: push through the vote for the construction of a casino in the historic center of the Marina. Nothing has been left to chance, and his successor, Lucas Barrès, is already designated.But the latter’s all-consuming ambition and the secret interests of the city’s leaders, whether they come from its opulent villas or from the cities of the northern suburbs, impede the Mayor’s plans. The race for Mayor becomes a power struggle where no holds are barred. Only one question arises: how far will they go?Magnificent and hypnotic city that leaves nobody indifferent, Marseille unleashes the greatest passions and inevitably the worst crimes.

Seriously injured, 19-year-old Eve survives the massacre of her parents and little brother, recovers and sets out to bring Mick to justice. Across the 6 episodes we chart her complex and extraordinary journey, travelling every step of the way with her as she evolves from child to adult, from prey to predator. But can she triumph over Mick Taylor, evil incarnate?

Angie Tribeca:

A satirical look at police procedurals, is the brainchild of Steve and Nancy Carell. Rashida Jones (Parks and Recreation, The Office) stars in this single-camera comedy as Angie Tribeca, a 10-year veteran of the Los Angeles Police Department’s elite RHCU: Really Heinous Crimes Unit. Her fellow officers in the squad are an eccentric but brilliant group of people who investigate crime, reveal way too much personal information about themselves and refuse to rest until justice has been served … sort of.

Dark Places:

Curb Your Enthusiasm:

The comedy laden Curb Your Enthusiasm staring Seinfeld co-creator Larry David, as himself, in an unsparing but tongue-in-cheek depiction of his life, comes to Anytime in May. The show features a raft of celebrities playing themselves in a series of improvised side-splitting comedy sketches.
