What's new on Netflix in March 2022 – all the shows and movies coming up
The Adam Project, Top Boy season 2 and Bridgerton season 2 are all dropping in a packed month for the streamer.
The Netflix schedule seems to ramp up year on year and this month it has a lot of new content (and some old favourites) heading our way.
It might no longer be starring Regé-Jean Page’s Duke of Hastings, but Bridgerton season 2 is still set to be an undeniable must-watch. The first season was viewed by a whopping 82 million households in its first 28 days on the streamer, but can season 2 once again break records?
Meanwhile, Top Boy returns for its second season on the streamer, or fourth if you include the original Channel 4 series, and Big Mouth is getting a brand-new (one would assume filthy) spin-off, Human Resources. The Last Kingdom is also set to air its fifth and final season.
New films landing on the platform include Ryan Reynolds’ latest sci-fi time travel epic, The Adam Project, and Windfall, a thriller starring Jason Segel (How I Met Your Mother), Lily Collins (Emily in Paris) and Jesse Plemons (The Power of the Dog). Older films which will be available to stream include 2013’s romantic sci-fi Her, Spider-Man 2 and It: Chapter Two.
