What’s Coming To Netflix Australia This Weekend (September 13)

Every Friday, Netflix adds a handful of new movies and TV shows to help get subscribers through the weekend. Tonight sees the addition of 10 new titles, including anime television series Black Lagoon, coming-of-age teen drama Tall Girl and the true-crime dramatisation Unbelievable. There are also some decent movies dropping over the weekend for when you’ve had your fill of Netflix Originals. Here’s the full list!

In addition to the above, there’s also the sci-fi thriller The I-Land, which is streaming now. The series follows ten people who wake up on a treacherous island with no memory of who they are or how they got there. Sounds intriguing (and a lot like Lost.)

Third-party movies worth checking out include Stephen Spielberg’s War Of The Worlds remake, Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald, the underrated sequel to Trainspotting, War Dogs and The Mask.

Here are the official synopses and trailers for everything coming to Netflix this weekend.
