Netflix release dates 2019: all the original films coming this year
Timothée Chalamet and Robert Pattinson in The King, new releases from Martin Scorsese and Steven Soderbergh - and much more
Netflix made significant headway in its bid to compete with the major Hollywood film studios last year, with smash hits Bird Box and The Christmas Chronicles, and critical darlings The Ballad of Buster Scruggs and Roma. Its romcom revivals, too, like To All the Boys I've Loved Before and Set It Up, were wildly popular.
There is no longer any doubt about it: Netflix is now a major force in film.
In 2019, the streaming service is doubling down on this recent success with massive releases like the latest outings from veteran film-makers Martin Scorsese and Steven Soderbergh and directorial debuts from on-screen stars Amy Poehler and Chiwetel Ejiofor.
Plus, they've got crush-of-the-moment Timothée Chalamet and Robert Pattinson starring in a new adaptation of Shakespeare's Henry the IV and Henry the V, another Noah Centineo romcom, and Ben Affleck, Oscar Isaac and Charlie Hunnam as US military vets who band together to steal from a South American drug lord...
