New Netflix Instant Releases: August 2017

It’s almost the end of the month, and you know what that means: new stuff is coming to a streaming service near you. Here is everything arriving to Netflix in August to keep you busy on one of those rainy late-summer nights.

There’s a ton of great stuff hitting Netflix next month, not the least of which is Hilary Duff classic A Cinderella Story, which pairs well with the entire Matrix trilogy, Bad Santa, and Jackie Brown, a.k.a. that one Tarantino you’ve always meant to watch but could never find it. And if you haven’t seen Cloud Atlas, the Wachowskis’ bizarre, time-bending sci-fi, now you have no excuse.

A few Netflix Originals are hitting the service next month too, not the least of which is the inaugural season of The Defenders and anime adaptation Death Note. It would also be extremely remiss of me not to point out that the first season of NBC’s The Good Place, which is a perfect show that you will love if you don’t already, is arriving August 29.
