New Netflix Original Content Coming in April 2021

Netflix is headed into a new month with a long list of new original titles. On Wednesday, as March winds down to a close, the streaming giant unveiled its full list of April 2021 titles, and the streamer is preparing to treat subscribers. Next month, the streaming giant will be adding a total of 52 Netflix originals, including all-new series, films, documentaries, and specials. You can see the full list of April releases by clicking here.

April will be a big month for subscribers, as it will feature the return of the hit reality TV series The Circle. The series is set to drift away from the streamer’s typical release style and instead only drop four episodes in the middle of the month, followed by four additional episodes the following week, with even more episodes. April will also serve up some laughs with the return of Stranger Things star Gaten Matarazzo’s Prank Encounters, as well as treat subscribers to a little Dolly Parton with a star-studded tribute. Next month will also bring about the return of a few beloved children series and all-new titles.

Given that it is now officially spring, Netflix will be doing a little spring cleaning. This means that several will also be leaving along with the dozens of new titles headed to the streaming library. You can check out everything that is leaving next month by clicking here. Keep scrolling to see every Netflix original that will be added to the streaming library in April.
