The NFL will be the big draw for most on Christmas day, with two massive games taking place exclusively on Netflix globally featuring live musical performances by both Beyonce and Mariah Carey and lots of Netflix announcements for its 2025 slate. You won’t want to miss it! But what else do you have to look forward to? Here’s your look ahead at everything set to arrive on Netflix between December 23rd and December 30th.
As a reminder, this week is also your last opportunity to watch up or catch up on a bunch of movies and series leaving Netflix throughout January. On the first of the month alone, there are over 160 movies leaving, so we’d highly recommend checking out our list of 10 must-watch titles or the complete list of departures here.
What to Watch on Netflix This Week
Squid Game (Season 2)
Why is this week so quiet when it comes to new releases? The NFL is certainly one reason, but the other is the juggernaut Squid Game. The South Korean series is finally returning after it burst onto the scenes (neigh, exploded!) back in September 2021 – yes, it’s been over three years! Hwang Dong-hyuk returns as the creator, with Lee Jung-Jae reprising his role as Player Number 456 with brand new games with familiar deadly consequences for those who lose.
Netflix has thrown the kitchen sink at marketing the second season, so its release the day after Christmas shouldn’t be a huge surprise, but now is the time to begin rewatching season 1 if you haven’t done so already.
Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga (2024)
Coming to Netflix: Next Monday
Two huge Warner Bros. Picture movies from their 2024 slate of theatrical releases are hitting theaters this week. The latest Godzilla and Kong movie was released on Netflix today, and next week, alongside Mad Max: Fury Road, the epic prequel Furiosa will be released on Netflix for the first time following its stint on Max.
Anya Taylor-Joy plays the role of the titular character, with Charlize Theron having previously headlined the role. It tells her story as she is kidnapped from the Green Place of Many Mothers into the hands of the maniacal Dementus, played by Chris Hemsworth. This story follows her constant run-ins with the charismatic villain in the deadly wasteland, beautifully crafted by writer and director George Miller.
Maestro in Blue (Season 3)
Coming to Netflix: Saturday

Finally, we wanted to give a shout-out to Netflix’s first major Greek drama that’ll be wrapping up with its third and final season this weekend, having just aired in full on Greek television. It’s a series we’ve tracked over the years, and everyone who has checked it out has fallen in love with the characters, the stunning vistas, and the fantastic plot.
Not seen the series yet? Here’s what you can expect: “A musician goes to lead a festival on a scenic island, where he begins an unexpected romance and finds himself entwined in other people’s problems.”
