If you already binge-watched all of your favorite shows, next month Netflix is bringing you more goodies.
In the span of the last year the streaming platform developed a stellar offering of their original series. Starting with their highly successful series House of Cards starring Kevin Spacey and Robin Wright, Netflix entered the realm of leading production companies.
With Netflix expanding its reach to over 190 countries, the streaming giant is broadening the programming to foreign productions. In May a French production led by Dan Franck starring Gerard Depardieu is set to air worldwide. Marseille is a political drama fully in French (subtitles will come to the rescue) about a Marseillais mayor going to war with his former protege turned rival. Premieres May 5, 2016.
On the comedic side of things, by the end of the month we will experience a 13-episode mokumentary Lady Dynamite. The series starring and based on Maria Bamford‘s life will premiere May 20, 2016.
Chelsea, premiering May 11, is making the mark as Netflix’s first-ever talk show. Set to air three times a week, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, the show will host guests from the worlds of entertainment, politics and business. Even though the show will not be streaming live, it will feature a live audience. Moreover, according to the host, Chelsea Handler, we might be seeing at her show both Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump.
Adam Sandler is coming with his second movie of the four-film series, The Do-Over on May 27. The action comedy tells the story of two guys faking their deaths only to discover they’re getting themselves in deeper trouble.
For those of you who got hooked by the new releases last year, there will be shows coming back for their second seasons very soon. Bloodline season 2 premieres May 27; Jane Fonda comes back in Grace and Frankie on May 6 and the Chef’s Table will take you to Brazil, Slovenia, Mexico and Thailand starting May 20.
