When it comes to producing original content, Netflix is by far the leader among streaming services. With studio partnerships around the globe, the list of new series on Netflix can get out of hand. Therefore this list is focused on English-language shows, which means they’re new shows from the US, UK, Australia, Canada, and the like.
The release schedules on whether episodes will drop all at once to binge or come out weekly have yet to be confirmed for a lot of shows, so we’ve noted that as such. The same goes for some release dates. Those that are not officially confirmed are marked with an asterisk.
New series on Netflix confirmed for 2024
Fool Me Once
While police investigate her, she undertakes an investigation of her own and uncovers a decades-old conspiracy with a body count.
This is the first of many new series on Netflix that is a novel adaptation. So you might want to schedule some extra reading time, if you like to read the book before watching the movie or show.

The Brothers Sun
Following the attempted assassination of a Taiwanese triad boss, the oldest son and heir apparent moves to Los Angeles to protect his mom and younger brother — lovable loser Bruce, who is clueless about the family business.

- Number of episodes: 8
- Release Schedule: Binge
- Genre(s): Crime, Action, Comedy
Boy Swallows Universe
Another one of many book adaptations, Boy Swallows Universe is based on Trent Dalton’s 2018 semi-autobiographical novel of the same name.
The series follows an Australian teen with a troubled home life as he turns to crime in order to help out his mom.

Griselda
Three of the shows 4 creators — Doug Miro, Andrés Baiz and Carlo Bernard — are the creators of Narcos. So our expectations are for Griselda are higher than a trafficker sampling their own supply.
Masters of the Universe: Revolution
There’s no word yet exactly on the release schedule, or even the exact number of episodes, but the previous series was 10 episodes split into 2 parts. It makes sense that this would follow a similar format.

Alexander: The Making of a God
The series drops January 31st. but as of the 9th day of the year, there’s still no trailer for it.
One Day
Based on the novel of the same name by David Nicholls, One Day follows the friendship of Dexter and Emma on every St Swithin’s Day over the course of 20 years.
If you’re wondering What is St Swithin’s Day?, you’re not alone. To save you a web search, it falls on July 15th and the sun or rain on that day dictates the weather for the next 40 days. (And in case you’re wondering, no, there is no historical or meteorological evidence to support this notion whatsoever.)
Avatar: The Last Airbender
Produced by Nickelodeon and Rideback, the new Netflix series is a remake of the animated series of the same name that ran for 3 seasons, from 2005 to 2008.

Einstein and the Bomb
The Gentlemen
Surprisingly, The Gentlemen (film version) is not currently available on any streaming services. However, it is available for digital rental at all the usual suspects.
Do you need to watch The Gentlemen movie before watching the series? Unlikely. But should you? Of course. It’s a Guy Ritchie film. And if you don’t like Guy Ritchie flicks, why would you bother watching this series?

Hot Wheels Let’s Race
It’s just one of 2 animated new series on Netflix this year that’s originally in English. For more new animated shows, check out the new international series on Netflix coming this year.
3 Body Problem
Not to be confused with Tencent Video’s Three-Body series from 2023, Netflix’s series is the third adaptation of Liu Cixin’s novel of the same name. (A film adaptation was made in 2015 but not released.)
Created by David Benioff, D.B. Weiss, and Alexander Woo, Earth is threatened by a nearby alien civilization far more advanced than we are.
Dead Boy Detectives
More new series on Netflix
Limited series Zero Day is an upcoming thriller about conspiracy theories. The star-studded cast boasts Robert De Niro, Angela Bassett, Jesse Plemons, Matthew Modine, Connie Britton and more.
There’s no word yet on Zero Day‘s release date, but the official word from Netflix assures us that it’s “coming soon”.
