‘Roaring Twenties’
Netflix’s latest original reality TV series Roaring Twenties is heading back to the streamer on Friday with a fresh batch of episodes. Originally premiering last week, and growing Netflix’s existing reality catalogue, the series is a “coming-of-age story,” the series follows eight twenty-somethings in Austin, Texas as they set out to find success in life and love, all while learning to navigate the ‘new normal’ of 2020’s America.
‘Army of Thieves’
After months of anticipation, Netflix subscribers are being treated to the film Army of Thieves on Friday. A prequel to Zack Snyder’s zombie heist film Army of the Dead, which was a massive hit for the streamer, Army of Thieves is set during the beginning stages of the zombie outbreak and centers on Ludwig Dieter, a safecracker hired by a mysterious woman to assist in a heist of impossible-to-crack safes across Europe. The film stars Matthias Schweighöfer, Nathalie Emmanuel, Ruby O. Fee, Stuart Martin, Guz Khan, and Jonathan Cohen.
