Pictured: Sister Death, The Family Business and Pain Hustlers
Another week of new releases awaits on Netflix, and below, we’ll take you through the couple of dozen new movies, series, and games we currently know are headed to the service throughout the final full week of October 2023.
There are a few big titles lined up for the final days of October 2023, with Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse heading up that lineup. Then we’re into November 2023 and we expect to get the full list this week. Until then, we’re listing all the November titles here.
As always, you can keep up-to-date on all the new arrivals on Netflix via our New on Netflix hub.
Most Anticipated New Releases on Netflix This Week
The Family Business (Seasons 1-4)
Coming to Netflix: Tuesday

2023 has been the year of licensing, with some excellent titles landing on the service from other distributors from yesteryear. Next up on the docket is The Family Business, which comes from showrunner Trey Haley and is based on the books by Carl Weber.
The series revolves around a family empire business headed up by L.C. Duncan (played by the great Ernie Hudson) as we see their dirty secret life played out after their flagship stores close.
Sister Death (2023) Netflix Original
Coming to Netflix: Friday
For whatever reason, horror is not a genre Netflix strays into too often on its movie slate. Indeed, the only real horror title it’s released for the entirety of 2023 has been the Barcelona spin-off to Bird Box.
Thankfully, we’re getting a highly anticipated new horror from Spain this week in the form of a prequel movie to the hit 2017 movie (that’s licensed to Netflix at the time of publishing) called Veronica.
The title shows you follow a sister beginning to teach girls at a haunted former convent.
Pain Hustlers (2023) Netflix Original
Coming to Netflix: Friday
Rounding out our most anticipated titles for the week is the big heavy-hitting movie for October that’s got an all-star cast, Pain Hustlers.
Here’s what you can expect:
“Dreaming of a better life for her and her young daughter, Liza (Emily Blunt) lands a job from Pete (Chris Evans) at a failing pharma start-up, where Liza’s charm, drive, and guts catapult her into the high life and the company into the center of a criminal conspiracy with dire consequences.”
Sadly, critics did not take to the movie following its premiere at the film festivals over the past few weeks. Rex Reed for Observer had perhaps one of the kinder takes concluding:
“A real-life story with social issues about capitalism that is entertaining and funny while it makes you think, without being too earnest and serious.”
