Best New Series on Netflix
The whole reason we come to the streamer in the first place, new Netflix series launches are the stuff of gold. Here are the best new series coming to Netflix in February 2025.
Zero Day
Release Date: 20 February 2025
Robert De Niro is pushing 81 and still going strong as he tackles new roles and projects, including this political thriller mini-series. The veteran actor plays former U.S. President George Mullen, who’s asked to investigate after a nationwide cyberattack. Jesse Plemons, Connie Britton, Lizzy Caplan, Angela Bassett, Matthew Modine, and Joan Allen round out the impressive cast.
Cobra Kai: Season 6 Part 3
Release Date: 13 February 2025
Remember when Cobra Kai was a cult hit on YouTube with relatively limited potential? Here we are finishing the sixth (and last) season of what’s since become a true blockbuster Netflix series. Balancing campy nostalgia with earnest drama, it chronicles former rivals Daniel LaRusso and Johnny Lawrence as well as the next generation of karate kids. The final episodes will send our various protagonists and antagonists to Barcelona for the Sekai Taikai tournament, where ultimate champions will be determined once and for all.
Apple Cider Vinegar
Release Date: 6 February 2025
We have high hopes for this Aussie drama series, which examines the early days of Instagram through the lens of two rising influencers (played by Kaitlyn Dever and Alycia Debnam-Carey). Promising non-traditional cures and wellness treatments, the best friends usher in meteoric success and a thriving global community. But what happens when the promise of better health is built on junk science? Watch to find out!

Running Point
Release Date: 27 February 2025
We’re picking up some Ted Lasso vibes from this new sports dramedy series. It stars Kate Hudson as a former party girl turned businesswoman, who’s placed in charge of her family’s pro basketball team. The puntastic title is presumably the first of many comparisons between the respective worlds of business and sports, and we’re already kind of over it. Then again, we are suckers for an underdog story so we might tune in anyway.
Love is Blind: Season 8
Release Date: 14 February 2025
You either watch this popular dating series or you don’t so we won’t spend too much time on its latest season. Co-hosts Nick and Vanessa Lachey welcome in a fresh batch of singles, who must forge (or not) romantic connections without meeting face-to-face and yadda, yadda, yadda.
Celebrity Bear Hunt
Release Date: 5 February 2025
To be clear, this upcoming British reality series doesn’t follow celebrities as they hunt for bears. Instead, it drops them into the heart of the Central American jungle for a variety of endurance challenges. Upon losing a challenge, participants are then hunted down like prey by survival expert Bear Grylls. Holly Willoughby hosts and cast members include ex-Spice Girl Mel B, former tennis star Boris Becker, TV personality Steph McGovern, and others.
Best New Movies on Netflix
This month, Netflix will release a handful of original films along with licensed highlights to keep you entertained. Here are your highlights.
Kinda Pregnant
Release Date: 5 February 2025
Jealous of her best friend’s pregnancy, Lainy Newton (Amy Schumer) rocks a fake pregnant belly of her own in this upcoming comedy. Lainy’s move might seem like a harmless—and pointless—endeavour, but then she meets the man of her dreams while living a lie. Schumer co-wrote and co-produced under Adam Sandler’s Happy Madison shingle so expect laughs of both the cringey and heartfelt variety.
The Witcher: Sirens of the Deep
Release Date: 11 February 2025
The Witcher saga continues with this adult animated film set in the same fantasy universe as the popular live-action series. At a coastal village, monster hunter Geralt of Rivia navigates a long-running feud between humans and sea creatures with a complex mystery at its centre.
New Netflix Documentaries & Events
After dropping a number of docuseries and documentaries over the past few months, Netflix Australia is back at it again. Here are the best new Netflix documentary releases to land in February 2025.
Surviving Black Hawk Down
Release Date: 10 February 2025
The real-life Black Hawk Down Incident occurred when three American helicopters were shot down by Somali forces during the Battle of Mogadishu in 1993 (part of the Somali Civil War). Two of the helicopters landed in hostile territory and it kicked off a deadly survival mission, as depicted in Ridley Scott’s 2001 war drama Black Hawk Down. This brand-new docuseries interviews the actual Somali and U.S. fighters who survived the ordeal, recounting the story in all its shocking detail.
Royal Rumble 2025
Release Date: 2 February 2025
Are you ready to rumbleeeeeeee! Sorry—we had to do it. Assuming you are indeed ready, fire up Netflix to watch WWE superstars enter the ring for a battle royale-style showdown of epic proportions. The road to Wrestlemania starts here.

The 31st Annual Screen Actors Guild Awards
Release Date: 24 February 2025
The 31st Annual Screen Actors Guild Awards will stream live on Netflix, with Kristen Bell as host. It’s a night full of stars as Hollywood celebrates another year of movies and performances. The Best Film nominees are A Complete Unknown, Wicked, Emilia Pérez, Anora, and Conclave.
Full Swing: Season 3
Release Date: 25 February 2025
This beloved sports docuseries goes behind the scenes and off the green to deliver an intimate look at the lives of various pro golfers. The third season will follow Rory McIlroy, Scottie Scheffler, Bryson DeChambeau, and others as they vie for glory.
Runn
Release Date: 10 February 2025
Internet personality Nedd Brockmann ran thousands of miles across Australia for a charitable cause. Witness his journey in this new documentary and prepare to feel like an underachiever.
New Comedy on Netflix
The constantly rotating Netflix comedy lineup brings at least a few good laughs every month and this February is no exception. Here’s a closer look at some new comedy specials on Netflix.

Felipe Esparza: Raging Fool
Release Date: 11 February 2025
Felipe Esparza is a Raging Fool in this new stand-up special of the same name. Follow along as the Mexican comedian dispenses on family dynamics, marriage struggles, cultural divides, and other subjects.

Rosebud Baker: The Mother Lode
Release Date: 18 February 2025
Comedian Rosebud Baker brings her uniquely dark and satirical sensibilities to her second Netflix special. It was taped over two years and two separate shows to present Baker before and after she became a mother. The Mother Lode, indeed!
Things to Consider for Netflix
When it comes to streaming services, Netflix is arguably the biggest and best-known. The entertainment juggernaut has produced some of the most binged series in recent memory, not to mention given new life to ageing and formerly cancelled favourites. When you are considering a subscription or you just want to know what to watch on Netflix, here are some considerations to keep front of mind.
Subscription
In order to watch new Netflix series and movies, you will need to subscribe to the platform. That being said, you can see what is out there before you sign up as it is possible to browse Netflix without subscribing. You can browse Netflix’s full catalogue of titles without subscribing by visiting netflix.com/watch-free. With this site, you can watch the first episode of many popular series without needing to sign up.
Netflix Cost
If you have been asking ‘Is Netflix cheaper than Prime Video?”, the answer isn’t as straightforward as you’d think. A standard Netflix subscription with ads is cheaper than Prime Video, while a standard subscription without ads is slightly more expensive than Prime Video. Netflix’s standard with ads is priced at AUD$6.99 per month while Prime Video will set you back AUD$9.99 per month.
Titles and Originals
Netflix is renowned for its massive catalogue of titles, highlighted primarily by its extensive range of Netflix originals. These in-house productions receive the biggest marketing push on the platform, so it’s likely that you have tuned in, seen one or two or unwittingly binged whole seasons. For reference, the most-viewed series in Netflix history is reportedly season one of Squid Game, which generated an estimated 265,200,000 views, followed by season one of Wednesday with 252,100,000 views and season four of Stranger Things with 140,700,000 views.
