Check out our highlights of what’s coming to Netflix in August, followed by the full release schedule.
The Sandman
Available August 5
Neil Gaiman’s classic tale finally arrives on screen, a blend of modern myth and dark fantasy in which contemporary fiction, historical drama and legend are seamlessly interwoven. The Sandman follows Morpheus, the Dream King, as he mends the cosmic—and human—mistakes he’s made during his vast existence.
Carter
Available August 5
“Does Netflix movie Carter have the best action trailer of the year?” we pondered the other day. See for yourself below—but the correct answer is “Probably!” Directed by a mysterious voice from a device in his ear, a man with no memory sets off on a hostage rescue mission rife with danger in this South Korean action flick that looks like it refuses to let up.
Day Shift
Available August 12
Jamie Foxx, Dave Franco and Snoop Dogg join the John Wick stunt team for this vampire-hunting action flick. A hard-working blue-collar dad’s mundane San Fernando Valley pool cleaning job is a front for his real source of income, hunting and killing blood-suckers.
The Next 365 Days
Available August 19
After the cliffhanger ending to 365 Days: This Day (we learned this on the internet, mum wouldn’t let us watch it) the erotic drama series returns for a “climactic” third installment.
Tom Cruise hits and other catalogue titles
Take a deep breath, because there’s a ton of Tom landing August 1st – all five Mission: Impossible films and the original Top Gun. Other older titles arriving on Netflix include Sam Neill sheep comedy-drama Rams, Kevin Costner neo-western Let Him Go, all-time classic Back to the Future and more.
