Everything Coming to Netflix This Weekend (September 17)

By Allison Schonter

September is halfway over, but Netflix isn't hitting the breaks on the expansion of its content catalog. After already stocking dozens of titles throughout the month, the streamer is bringing a fresh wave of titles to the streaming library this weekend. In total, subscribers will be treated to seven new additions, six of which are Netflix original series, films, and docuseries.

The new titles will join the growing list of additions for the month of September. As August wound to a close, the streaming giant unveiled its full list of September 2021 additions, which you can view by clicking here. The lineup includes some pretty heavy hitters, with September having kicked off with titles like School of Rock and Labyrinth and September later seeing the addition of Lucifer Season 6, the final installment of the Fox-turned-Netflix series that dropped on Sept. 10. Looking ahead, Netflix also has plans to stock titles like Dear White People Volume 4, Mike Flanagan's highly-anticipated limited series Midnight Mass, and the comedy special Attack of the Hollywood Cliches!.

Netflix offers three subscription plans - the basic plan ($8.99 per month), the standard plan ($13.99 per month), and the premium plan ($17.99 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 what's leaving before the end of the month.

'The Father Who Moves Mountains'

A retired intelligence officer will stop at nothing to find his son in Netflix's new thriller The Father Who Moves Mountains. Marking Daniel Sandu's second feature and produced by Cristian Mungiu, the film is set amid a snowy backdrop and follows an ex-intelligence officer and his son as they embark on a hike in the mountains. During the outing, however, his son goes missing, and the retired intelligence officer will stop at nothing in his search to find him. The Father Who Moves Mountains premiers on Netflix on Friday, Sept. 17.

'Sex Education: Season 3'

The birds and the bees are back for a third outing on Netflix. On Friday, the long-awaited Sex Education Season 3 drops in the streaming platform. The fan-favorite series follows Otis Milburn, an inexperienced, socially awkward high school student who lives with his sex therapist mother. After Season 2 found Otis mastering "his newly discovered sexual urges" all while dealing with his tense relationship with Maeve, Season 3 will mark a new year, with Otis having casual sex. Meanwhile, Eric and Adam are official and Jean has a baby on the way. However, things get a little complicated when the "new headteacher Hope tries to return Moordale to a pillar of excellence."
