During the coronavirus pandemic Netflix has been something of a saviour for households around the country and with the continued delays to releases of major blockbusters the reliance for new films and TV shows on the streaming platform looks likely to continue for some time yet.<\/p>\n
And while there will surely come a point where Netflix struggles to find new material to release given the ongoing disruption to production on new shows, that point has not come yet there are several exciting new releases coming to the service in the next month.<\/p>\n
August sees the return of the cult favourite series Lucifer for the first part of its fifth season, while hit original reality TV show Selling Sunset is back for a third run after a hugely successful second outing earlier this year.<\/p>\n
There are also several new documentaries, including one that focuses on the career and controversial legacy of former France international striker Nicolas Anelka, and another about a manwho spent his life trying to find aliens.<\/p>\n
On the movie front there is no doubting the headline news Netflix is adding another big-budget blockbuster to its ranks, this time an action film called Project Power starring Jamie Foxx and Joseph Gordon Levitt.<\/p>\n
