Travel back in time to the year 2011, where movie enthusiasts had the chance to witness two romantic comedies, “Friends with Benefits” and “No Strings Attached,” both featuring similar storylines. It seems that Netflix is now attempting to recreate that moment by adding both films to its streaming service in August. In addition to these rom-coms, Netflix plans to introduce over 80 other titles next month, including classics like “It’s Complicated” and “Just Go With It.”
However, amidst this excitement, it’s essential to acknowledge the ongoing strike by TV and film writers and actors, who are fighting for fair compensation and improved working conditions in the streaming era.
Among the other older movies joining Netflix in August are beloved films such as “Coming to America,” “The Big Short,” and the first five installments of the “Fast & Furious” franchise. On the TV front, subscribers can binge-watch all four seasons of ABC’s “Ugly Betty” and all five seasons of HBO’s “Ballers.”
August will also bring plenty of new shows and movies to Netflix. “Painkiller” is a limited drama series that delves into the opioid crisis, based on Patrick Radden Keefe’s New Yorker article, “The Family That Built an Empire of Pain,” and Barry Meier’s book, “Pain Killer: An Empire of Deceit and the Origin of America’s Opioid Epidemic.” Additionally, the “Untold” series will release a new volume of sports documentaries, featuring captivating stories about Johnny Manziel, Jake Paul, Victor Conte, and more. Fans can also look forward to the return of the British coming-of-age series, “Heartstopper,” for its second season.
