This week in Netflix trailers: El Camino, The Irishman, and more!
By Ariba Bhuvad
Netflix trailers have us pretty darn excited for what’s coming up. Are you ready for it?
Netflix trailers are the highlight of my week because we never know what we are going to get. Think about this past week alone! We got the official trailer for Bojack Horseman’s final season, the first extended look at El Camino: A Breaking Bad Movie, and so many more!
It’s quite the month or two ahead for Netflix, and I think fans are reeling with excitement at all these sneak peeks. Perhaps the most exciting one from the past week is the highly anticipated Martin Scorsese film, The Irishman, which is already getting some major Oscar buzz.
Clearly, we have quite the list of Netflix trailers to get into so let’s not waste any more time and get right into it! Be sure to share your favorite ones in the comments below–we’d love to hear what you liked the most!
American Son
Adapted from a Broadway play, American Son tells the story of a mother who is desperately looking for her missing teenage son. The official description itself gave me goosebumps so I’m going to just share that with you here:
"Based on the acclaimed Broadway play, AMERICAN SON tells the story of Kendra Ellis-Connor (Kerry Washington), the mother of a missing teenage boy, as she struggles to put the pieces together in a South Florida police station. Steven Pasquale, Jeremy Jordan and Eugene Lee also reprise their roles in the adaptation which presents four distinct viewpoints, while also navigating the unique dynamic of an interracial couple trying to raise a mixed-race son."
Don’t miss it when it premieres on Nov. 1!
El Camino: A Breaking Bad Movie
During the Emmys last weekend, Netflix released a full-length trailer for the upcoming Breaking Bad movie following the events that took place after the series finale involving Jesse Pinkman (Aaron Paul).
It’s exciting, it’s mysterious, and it can’t premiere soon enough. Check it out on Oct. 11, and don’t miss the teaser and trailer below!
Rhythm + Flow Feat. Cardi B, Chance the Rapper, and TIP
Netflix trailers continue this week with some musical influences and competition as well.
"Undiscovered talent will shoot their shot in front of hip hop icons Cardi B, Chance the Rapper and T.I. “TIP” Harris. Once they make it past auditions, they’ll compete in a series of challenges that include cyphers and battles to show they have what it takes to make it in the rap game. This is the chance of a lifetime for many, but it will change everything for only one of them."
Dang, this actually sounds pretty cool, doesn’t it? Changing up the musical competition game, finally!
The series premieres on Oct 9 and new episodes will follow Oct. 16 and Oct. 23.
The Irishman
Netflix + Martin Scorsese + Robert De Niro, Al Pacino, and Joe Pesci. Yes, folks, this is happening, and I’m happy to report, the movie is getting some MAJOR Oscar buzz.
The story is about crime in a post-war world and involves hitmen and gangsters that we all know and have heard of. Honestly, there’s no way to describe this movie without doing it justice. So, just check out the trailer below, and get ready for the movie to premiere on Nov. 27!
Deon Cole: Cole Hearted
Check out black-ish and grown-ish‘s Deon Cole’s Netflix comedy special! He’s got plenty of hilarious and awkward stories to share, and if you’ve seen his work before, then you know you’re in for a treat. Check out his special on Oct. 8!
Bojack Horseman season 6
Say it ain’t so, Netflix trailers! Bojack Horseman is officially coming to an end with its sixth and final two-part season. It’ll be hard to bid farewell to the sarcastic, mean, grumpy horse we’ve come to love so much, but everything good must come to an end.
Check out the two-part final season when part 1 drops on Oct. 25 and part 2 drops on Jan. 31.
Haunted Season 2
Haunted is back with another season as real-life ghost stories are re-told through scary and dramatic re-enactments. Check it out on Oct. 11.
