What's coming new to Netflix in June 2020: movies, TV, original series

We’ve all been watching more movies and series than usual over the past few months while cooped up during the coronavirus lockdown. And just when you thought you might have “completed” Netflix, the world’s most popular streaming service has plenty of new offerings coming in June to ensure your viewing pleasure, from 80s and 90s classics and a new Will Farrell Eurovision movie, to new seasons of groundbreaking series like German sci-fi, Dark. Here, we’ve put together some of the highlights...

Clueless (1990) 

A quirky modern take on Jane Austin’s novel Emma, the classic high school rom-com starring 90s teen queen, Alicia Silverstone, and a young Paul Rudd (who still looks the same 25 years on) comes to Netflix on 1 June. 

E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial (1982)

It’s hard to believe Steven Spielberg’s timeless classic is not on Netflix already. But it’s finally landing on the streaming service on 1 June and will be one to revisit for many 80s kids, who will have a chance to introduce their own kids to the loveable pint-sized alien trying to phone home. Just try and hold back the tears!

Dear My Friends (Season 1)

If you’re partial to South Korean movies after watching Oscar winner Parasite, then you might want to check out Dear My Friends, a quirky comedy series focusing on older generations living out the final years of their lives. The series launched in 2016 and drops on Netflix on 1 June. 

Lady Bird (2017) 

The multi-Oscar nominated Lady Bird, created by A24 and Greta Gerwig and starring talented Irish actress Saoirse Ronan, is about a 17-year-old growing up in California. The movie is almost as good as Ronan’s American accent. It lands on Netflix on 3 June.

Hannibal (Seasons 1-3) 

If you haven’t seen Hannibal, the American psychological horror-thriller television series developed by Bryan Fuller that was a solid hit with viewers and critics alike, then now is your chance. All three seasons of the NBC epic will be available on Netflix from 5 June.

Curon (Season 1) 

Fans of Haunting of Hill house will be delighted to hear that another Netflix-produced horror series, Curno, is set to drop on 10 June. This Italian Gothic fantasy horror is about a woman who disappears on returning to her hometown after 17 years, which leads her children to discover a shadowy family legacy.

Da 5 Bloods (2020)

Babies (Season 2) 

All the parents-to-be (and there could be many after lockdown) should check out Babies. The second part of the fascinating docu-series looking into how babies develop lands on Netflix on June 19. 

Eurovision Song Contest: The Story of Fire Saga (2020) 

Eurovision gets the Will Ferrell treatment as the Anchorman legend stars alongside Rachel McAdams in this comedy based on the popular European singing contest. No doubt Eurovision and Farrell will make for a hilarious combination. Not to be missed. It drops on June 26.

Dark (Season 3) 

The mind-bending sci-fi series returns with its third installment on 27 June, leaving you with plenty of time to watch the first two seasons if you haven’t seen them (or if you have, a re-watch will probably be necessary to refresh the mind, as a there is a lot to take in and remember with this one). It’s like a dark German answer to Stranger Things and well worth a watch.
