Every TV Show, Movie, and Original Coming to Netflix This Week (May 3)

'Selena: The Series: Part 2'

Selena Quintanilla's career is gaining momentum in Season 2 of Netflix's original series Selena: The Series. Described as a "coming-of-age story," the series initially debuted on the platform back in December 2020 and based on the life of Selena Quintanilla, the late Tejano star who is still beloved by millions of fans over two decades after her tragic death. In Season 2, set to drop on Tuesday, May 4, the singer will fight to remain true to herself, spend time with family, and expand her business all as her career begins to gain momentum.

'The Sons of Sam: A Descent into Darkness '

Netflix is taking another look at the case that captivated the world in the late 1970s. On Wednesday, May 5, the streamer is debuting its newest true crime documentary, The Sons of Sam: A Descent into Darkness, which details journalist and author Maury Terry's investigation into the case of one of America's most notorious serial murderers. While David Berkowitz was ultimately charged and convicted in the string of crimes, Terry believed the case was much more expansive and spent decades attempting to prove Berkowtiz had not acted alone. The Sons of Sam: A Descent into Darkness "draws on archival news footage, conversations with the people closest to the investigation, and Terry's own words and case files to tell a cautionary tale of a man who went down a rabbit hole and never came out. But was Maury Terry just chasing ghosts – or are the true Sons of Sam still out there."

'Girl from Nowhere: Season 2'

Netflix's Thai-language anthology series Girl From Nowhere is returning for Season 2. Originally debuting in August 2018, the series follows Nanno, a girl who transfers to different schools and has the ability to expose everyone's different stories of hypocrisy. In Season 2, set to debut on the streamer on Friday, May 7, "Nanno is back, doling karmic retribution to more students and faculty in a new season of this anthology series — and this time, she's not alone."

'Jupiter's Legacy'

A generation of superheroes are passing the torch on in Netflix's new original series Jupiter's Legacy. Set to debut on Friday, and based on the graphic novels by Mark Millar and Frank Quitely, the epic superhero drama centers on a group of superheroes, who, after keeping mankind safe for nearly a century, must look to their children to continue the legacy.
