Netflix's fall movie slate has been keeping subscribers busy since September. The streaming giant plans to release 43 movies through the last four months of 2021. Some of the films are stacked with A-listers like Leonardo DiCaprio, Benedict Cumberbatch, Idris Elba, Regina King, Ryan Reynolds, Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, Sandra Bullock, and Jennifer Lawrence, while others are sure to make stars out of newcomers.

Some of the new films hitting Netflix could be contenders at the Oscars in 2022. Jane Campion, best known for her Oscar-winning classic The Piano, will return with her first feature film since 2009 with The Power of the Dog, starring Cumberbatch as a rancher whose life changes when his brother comes home with a new wife and son. Kirsten Dunst, Jesse Plemons, Kodi Smit-McPhee, and Thomasin McKenzie also star in the drama, which will be released on Netflix on Dec. 1 after a limited theatrical run in November.

Another movie that is sure to get awards attention is Don't Look Up, a new satire from Adam McKay, the director of Anchorman and The Big Short. The black comedy stars DiCaprio and Lawrence as astronomers who go on a media tour to warn everyone about an asteroid set to destroy the earth. The star-studded cast also includes Jonah Hill, Mark Rylance, Ron Perlman, Timothee Chalamet, Ariana Grande, Cate Blanchett, and Meryl Streep. Scroll on for the full list of upcoming Netflix movies for September, October, November, and December.
