Everything Coming to Netflix This Weekend (May 16)

Netflix subscribers will have four new titles to stream this weekend.

The new additions — all Netflix originals — join other titles stocking in the library this month from the May 2025 content list, including Tina Fey’s The Four Seasons, The Twilight Saga, and A Deadly American Marriage.

Netflix offers three subscription plans – the standard with ads plan ($7.99 per month), the standard plan ($17.99 per month), and the premium plan ($24.99 per month). The latter three plans give subscribers access to the complete Netflix streaming library, but content availability is slightly limited on the Netflix with ads plan.
