WASHINGTON — Netflix has released its list of new shows and movies coming to the streaming site in August, offering users more ways to fill free time they may have from those summer plans canceled by the coronavirus.
The August list includes new seasons of "Rita" and "Stranger," along with "Glow Up," "Lucifer" and "Glitch Techs." There's also a new slate of comedy specials featuring Rob Schneider and Sam Jay. The summer adventures of Avatar also continue this summer with "The Legend of Korra" series coming to the platform on August 14.
A new Netflix Documentary called "World's Most Wanted" will be released at the beginning of the month showing how heinous criminals have avoided capture despite massive rewards and global investigations. It profiles five of the world’s most wanted.
And later on in August, the epic musical "Les Misérables" featuring Hugh Jackman, Russell Crowe and Anne Hathaway will be released to subscribers.
But with all the new content arriving in August, also comes a host of departures. All three "The Karate Kid" movies will leave Netflix on August 30, along with "Groundhog Day."
You can see a full list of everything coming to and leaving Netflix in August below.
