Netflix spent an estimated $17 billion on content in 2024, with most of that money going toward original productions. That investment resulted in a huge catalog of great movies, from summer blockbusters like Hit Man to recent holiday hits like Hot Frosty and Carry-On. The platform's original films have started to dominate industry awards shows like the Oscars and theGolden Globes, too; in 2024 alone, they received received 18 Academy Award nominations. So what's in store for 2025? A lot. Netflix's January movie releases span every genre, from documentaries like Don't Die: The Man Who Wants to Live Forever to a new feature-length Wallace & Gromit movie to the highly-anticipated Back In Action starring Cameron Diaz and Jamie Foxx. In case you missed it, the streamer just added Horizon: An American Saga: Chapter 1 and The Watchers to its lineup at the end of December. Take a look below at some of the biggest films coming to Netflix in January, from its newest originals to older titles that have been freshly acquired. See at Netflix Netflix Back In Action (Jan. 17) Cameron Diaz has taken a decade-long break from acting, and she makes her return in the appropriately-titled Back In Action, which reunites her with Jamie Foxx, her co-star in Annie and Any Given Sunday. In the film, the pair star as an average married couple, Emily and Matt, whose attempt to raise their family in peace is interrupted because surprise! they're actually secret agents whose lives are thrown into chaos when their cover is blown. The film, which co-stars Kyle Chandler, Glenn Close, Andrew Scott and Jamie Demetriou, arrives Jan. 17. Netflix Wallace & Gromit: Vengeance Most Fowl (Jan. 3) We've come to expect movies about the robots becoming sentient, but it's rare for the same fate to befall the garden gnomes. Alas, that's what happens in Wallace & Gromit: Vengeance Most Fowl, the latest film from Aardman animation studio. After Wallace invents a "smart" gnome he calls Norbot, it starts behaving strangely, as if being commanded by sinister forces. As always, it's up to Gromit to save his oblivious master from disaster. The film premieres on Jan. 3. Netflix Ad Vitam (Jan. 10) The French action thriller Ad Vitam not to be confused with the French TV series of the same name as the two are unrelated stars Guillaume Canet as a man named Franck Lazareff who survives a murder attempt but is on the hunt for the men who kidnapped his wife Lo (Stphane Caillard). In his search to find her, he becomes a part of a deadly manhunt that's somehow tied to his own scandalous past. Netflix Cunk on Life (Jan. 2) Cunk. Is. Back. Documentarian Philomena Cunk is a character created by British performer Diane Morgan, and, let's just say David Attenborough walked so that Cunk could... also walk, just in slow motion, through picturesque locations filled with nature. After her successful 2022 "documentary" Cunk on Earth, she's here with her latest follow-up, Cunk on Life, debuting on Netflix Jan. 2. Presented as a philosophical look at our purpose on Earth, Cunk deadpans her way through the special, trying to understand the meaning of life while asking, "Is life's meaning a riddle that even can be answered, and if so, should we listen or cover our ears to avoid spoilers?" Netflix Don't Die: The Man Who Wants to Live Forever (Jan. 1) Another day, another story about a tech millionaire doing something outlandish with his money, right? That's the gist of Netflix's new documentary Don't Die: The Man Who Wants to Live Forever, out Jan. 1. Bryan Johnson, a Silicon Valley millionaire, spends roughly $2 million per year on a quest to reverse the aging process and add years to his life through diet, sleep, exercise and procedures like gene therapy and plasma transfusions. In the past few years he has amassed over a million Instagram fans, many of whom are following his lead. Filmmaker Chris Smith (Tiger King) spent a year following Johnson in an effort to understand the movement he's started, which he simply calls "Don't Die," and see if this is simply one man's obsession or if there's something to it. A24 You Hurt My Feelings (Jan. 26) In A24's You Hurt My Feelings, which will be available on Netflix on Jan. 26, Julia Louis-Dreyfus stars as Beth, a non-fiction author working on her first novel. After she overhears her husband Don (Tobias Menzies) criticizing a draft of the book, their previously loving marriage starts to unravel. Written and directed by Nicole Holofcener, the marital drama features plenty of comedy courtesy of its supporting cast including, Michaela Watkins, Jeannie Berlin, David Cross and Arian Moayed. Warner Bros. Inception (Jan. 1) In Christopher Nolan's Inception, Leonardo DiCaprio stars as a thief with the ability to enter people's dreams and steal secrets from their subconscious who is later hired to implant a dream into a subject's head, a concept called "inception." The film's cast is a who's who of incredible talent including Cillian Murphy, Tom Hardy, Joseph-Gordon Levitt and Marion Cotillard. Even though this is one of those Nolan films that's admittedly best seen on the big screen, if you've never seen it, do yourself a favor when it arrives on Jan. 1. Sony Pictures 13 Going on 30 (Jan. 1) 13 Going On 30 has become something of a modern classic since it was first released in 2004. Since then, the Jennifer Garner film has bounced around several streaming services, and it returns to Netflix this month. The film that taught an entire generation to love Billy Joel's Vienna, gave us the term, "thirty, flirty and thriving," and delivered an iconic version of the Thriller dance, arrives Jan. 1. Screenshot by Abrar Al-Heeti/CNET Spider-Man (Jan. 1) The Sam Raimi-directed Spider-Man trilogy starring Tobey Maguire as your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man drops this month on Netflix. The films, distributed by Sony and produced before the Marvel Cinematic Universe was a glimmer in Thanos's eye, will join Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse, the great 2023 animated feature that is also streaming on the site. Warner Bros. Rush Hour (1998) They just don't make buddy action comedies like Rush Hour anymore, but luckily the 1998 film (and its two sequels) start streaming on Netflix this month so we can relive the magic of a bygone cinematic era. The pairing of Jackie Chan as a Hong Kong cop who's also a skilled martial artist and Chris Tucker as the fast-talking L.A. detective who's assigned to babysit him during an investigation is 100% everything you think it will be... and more.
