The bingeing weekend got off to a rough start when Netflix crashed on Friday, but once the platform is back up and running, the streamer is treating subscribers to a fresh slate of content. With the streamer well in the midst of its July 2022 content list, a total of nine new titles will be added to the streaming library this weekend. Subscribers can expect to begin seeing these new additions, seven of which are Netflix original series and films, appearing in the library on Friday. The roundup of new titles includes everything from the premiere of the film Country Queen, the streamer’s first Kenyan licensed branded series, to the debut of the outrageous new sci-fi comedy series Farzar.
Netflix offers three subscription plans – the basic plan $10 per month, the standard plan ($15.50 per month), and the premium plan ($20 per month). The streamer also recently debuted a “Netflix Free Section,” allowing non-subscribers to watch a selection of the streamer’s most beloved originals at no cost. Keep scrolling to see everything coming to Netflix this weekend, and don’t forget to check out all of the titles that will be leaving before the end of the month.
