First Look at What’s Coming to Netflix in November 2026

Welcome to your comprehensive (yet very early) look at everything coming to Netflix in the United States throughout November 2026! As we roll into the penultimate month of the year, Netflix is officially decking the halls while simultaneously rolling out some of its heaviest hitters. Whether you’re looking to get a head start on your festive binge-watching, tune into exclusive live sports, or get swept up in a prestige drama, November’s slate is absolutely stacked.

This month, all eyes are on the highly anticipated FTX crypto-collapse drama The Altruists starring Julia Garner and Anthony Boyle, as well as the gritty Jessica Chastain thriller Heartland. We’re also getting massive returning favorites, including Keira Knightley in Black Doves Season 2, the hilarious sophomore run of St. Denis Medical, and a royal farewell to The Empress with its third and final season. Add in a healthy dose of holiday rom-coms and a massive live NFL Thanksgiving broadcast between the Packers and the Rams, and you’ve got a month that will keep your watchlist very busy.

Before we dig in, another shameless plug for us! We’ve just relaunched our coming soon on Netflix calendar, which we discontinued last year, but thanks to some new sources, we can offer it again! It currently lists over 130 upcoming licensed and original titles. While we’ll still do more in-depth lists like this, you can also use that resource going forward. 

As always, keep an eye on our removals guide for every show and movie set to depart the streamer throughout the penultimate month of the year.
