March has already treated Netflix subscribers to Chris Rock: Selective Outrage, You: Season 4 Part 2, and Luther: The Fallen Sun, and this week, more than a dozen new titles are joining the list. With a content catalog numbering in the hundreds, Netflix is set to make the shelves of its streaming library even fuller when it drops 16 new titles this week.
This week’s new additions will be a big one for Netflix originals, with 12 Netflix original series and films scheduled to debut. The arrival of fresh original content will begin on Tuesday when the new Netflix series Ariyoshi Assists debuts alongside the new Netflix comedy title Bert Kreischer: Razzle Dazzle. Later in the week, subscribers will be able to press play on everything from In His Shadow to Noise to Money Shot: The Pornhub Story. Perhaps most-anticipated, though, is the long-awaited journey back into the Fold when Shadow and Bone, Netflix’s adaptation of Leigh Bardugo’s books, returns with its second season.
