What’s Coming to Netflix U.S. in July 2020

A quick review of this month’s new, original Netflix offerings quickly reveals my personal biases.

Editor’s Note: Aussies looking to take advantage of Netflix U.S.’ content line-up will need the use of a VPN.

For example, I’m well aware of the geek-friendly properties, both new and returning: Season two of The Umbrella Academy, based on the comic by Gerard Way and Gabriel Bá; the premiere of Cursed, based on a YA novel featuring art by comics legend Frank Miller; The Old Guard, a Charlize Theron-starring superhero film also based on a comic.

I’m jazzed for the new series based on The Baby-Sitters Club (the books are tween classics, but the phenomenally popular new graphic novel adaptations are likely what sparked this reboot) because it will make my 8-year-old daughter happy. I’m excited for the return of Unsolved Mysteries, a spooky staple of my childhood (they kept the title font; let’s hope they kept the iconic theme song too).

On the other hand, it turns out there is a show called Shameless? And it has 10 seasons? Huh.

Otherwise, there are a bunch of great new original documentaries and favourite films (Aeroplane!, Schindler’s List, Stardust, The Karate Kid) coming to the streamer this month, as well as a bunch you don’t want to miss before they go (Her, Back to the Future, probably not Sex and the City 2). Meanwhile, Disney+ has clawed back a few franchise installments in The Incredibles 2, Solo: A Star Wars Story and Ant-Man and the Wasp.

Here’s a trailer for Netflix’s new original offerings this month, followed by a list of everything that’s coming to and going from the streaming service in July:
