On My Block Season 4 is now on Netflix – Picture: Netflix

It’s a brand new week and it’s time to run through the new releases on Netflix where there are 6 new titles to cover from yesterday and into the brand new week. So if you’re looking for something new to watch while the world implodes (ie Facebook is down) then here’s what’s new and what’s trending on Netflix for October 4th, 2021.

In terms of removals, we just lost over 120 movies and TV shows. Today is your last chance to watch Rimba Racer before it departs and on Wednesday, Netflix loses Mine 9 and Walk Away from Love.

Want to look ahead? Our preview of what’s headed to Netflix over the next 7 day is up with at least 28 titles to look forward to.

Now let’s take a look at today’s highlights:

On My Block (Season 4)

Genre: Comedy, Drama
Cast: Sierra Capri, Jason Genao, Brett Gray
Writer: Eddie Gonzalez, Jeremy Haft, Lauren Iungerich
Runtime: 30 min

The coming-of-age series from Lauren Iungerich, Eddie Gonzalez and Jeremy Haft comes to its conclusion today with the final batch of episodes.

Here’s what you can expect going into the fourth and final season:

“When Jamal muscles in on Ruby’s dream of being senior class president, Jasmine goes on the offensive. Oscar warns Cesar of the dangers that lie ahead.”

Although this may be the end for the main squad, we will be returning to Freeridge in the form of a new spin-off conveniently named Freeridge.

RBG (2018)

Genre: Documentary, Biography
Director: Julie Cohen, Betsy West
Cast: Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Ann Kittner, Harryette Helsel
Runtime: 98 min

As we first reported last week, this double Oscar-nominated documentary touched down on Netflix on Sunday.

The expansive documentary takes you through the life of the late Ruth Bader Ginsburg who proudly served on the supreme court but also had a prolific career before her tenure began.

Security (2017)

Genre: Action, Crime, Thriller
Director: Alain Desrochers
Cast: Antonio Banderas, Ben Kingsley, Liam McIntyre
Writer: Tony Mosher, John Sullivan
Runtime: 88 min

Action thrillers always do well in the Netflix top 10s so it’ll be interesting to see whether the return of Security (not to be confused with Netflix’s own title added in 2021 under the same name) will secure it a spot in the coming days.

The middle budget movie is about an ex-special services veteran who takes a job at a run-down mall where his first night is beyond what he thought the job would entail.
