Welcome to the second bumper week of new releases on Netflix for the year of 2023. As we enter a new month, we’ll be getting a big batch of new licensed content onto Netflix, plus a handful of big Original series and movies. Here’s everything scheduled to hit Netflix between January 30th and February 5th, 2023.
Speaking of a new month, you’ll want to familiarize yourself with the complete February 2023 lineup. Plus, given this month has a lot of new additions worth talking about, you can expect us to be releasing daily new addition recaps too.
Most Anticipated New Releases Coming to Netflix This Week
Lyle, Lyle, Crocodile
Coming to Netflix: Saturday
Picture: Sony Pictures
The first major Sony movie to hit Netflix in 2023 drops next weekend in the form of the Shawn Mendes family feature film, Lyle, Lyle, Crocodile.
Adapted from the book series by Bernard Waber, the movie tells the tale of a mute crocodile who won’t talk but certainly sings.
The movie was well-received from audiences but less-so on the critics side. Paste Magazine gave the movie a 7 out of 10 concluding:
“For kids, this won’t matter much, and Lyle is good enough that it may well have staying power at sleepovers and family movie nights for years to come. It is, however, disappointing to see a film with oodles of potential fail to stick the landing, especially when the right moves are obvious.”
The Columbia Pictures movie cast includes Javier Bardem, Winslow Fegley, Constance Wu, and Scoot McNairy.
New Amsterdam (Seasons 3-4)
Coming to Netflix: Wednesday
Picture: NBC Universal
Although numerous Netflix regions are losing New Amsterdam altogether, Netflix US will be going in the opposite direction in picking up the third and fourth seasons of the NBC medical drama.
That’s two new seasons added to Netflix just a few weeks since seasons 1 and 2 were added.
Freeridge (Season 1)
Coming to Netflix: Friday
On My Block has long since finished, but fans of the show will want to check out the new spinoff to the show in the form of Freedridge.
Set in the same location, this coming-of-age series will see Gloria and Ines and their friends Demi and Cameron unleash a curse bringing dark misfortune into their lives.
8 episodes drop on Friday with the original showrunner Lauren Lungerich returning.
