Netflix movies and shows coming in October 2021
By Bryce Olin
Netflix has an incredible list of new movies and shows on the way this fall.
October 2021 is right around the corner, and we’re already learning about some of the big Netflix movies and shows coming to the streaming service during the month.
In October 2021, Netflix is releasing new seasons of You and Locke and Key, two of the most popular Netflix shows of the last several years.
We shared all the Netflix new releases for October 2021 below. If you’re looking for what to watch, you came to the right place.
Netflix shared release dates for all of the new Netflix original shows and movies as they are announced. We’re expecting Netflix will announce the Halloween movies and shows on the way shortly!
Netflix movies
The Guilty
The Guilty stars Jake Gyllenhaal and premiered on Netflix on Oct. 1, 2021. You can watch the new movies in theaters prior to the release on Netflix if you want to.
Army of Thieves
Army of Thieves is the prequel to the Netflix movie, Army of the Dead, which was released on Netflix in May 2021. Army of Thieves premieres on Oct. 29, 2021, and it tells the story of Dieter, played by Matthias Schweighöfer. Dieter is mater at cracking safes open, which makes him the perfect subject for a heist movie like this one!
Netflix shows
You season 3
You season 3 is probably the biggest of the Netflix shows coming in October. We’ve been waiting a long time to see what’s next for Joe and Love and what happens in You season 3. That wait ends on Friday, Oct. 15, 2021.
Locke and Key season 2
Netflix has not announced the release date for Locke and Key season 2 yet, but we do know that the new season is coming to Netflix in October 2021. Stay tuned for the official release date.
On My Block season 4
On My Block season 4 is coming to Netflix a lot sooner than we expected. The new season premiered on Netflix on Oct. 4, 2021. Unfortunately, this is also the final season of the hit series.
New on Netflix
For those who are big fans of Riverdale, you’ll notice Riverdale season 5 is not on the list. This is interesting because Netflix has a deal with The CW that brings new seasons of Riverdale (and other shows) eight days after the season finale airs on The CW.
The Riverdale season 5 finale airs on Wednesday, Oct. 6, 2021. If the traditional release pattern holds for Riverdale season 5, we’ll see the new season on Oct. 14.
Netflix also announced a new Dave Chappelle comedy special coming in October. It was not on the original list of new releases when Netflix announced it. Dave Chappelle: The Closer comes to Netflix on Tuesday, Oct. 5.
