Netflix is starting 2026 with a busy first week! They’ve revealed their January schedule, and new movies and shows will be added for five days straight. Many of these releases are expected to be popular, especially a highly anticipated original film that’s likely to be a big success.
Netflix’s major movie release for 2026 will be a romantic comedy based on Emily Henry’s popular novel, The People We Meet on Vacation, arriving on January 9th. Starring Emily Bader and Tom Blyth, the film follows two best friends who take an annual trip together and eventually realize their feelings for each other might be more than platonic.
This week, Netflix is adding several popular titles, including the Stephen King miniseries 11.22.63. Originally released on Hulu in 2016, the show was removed from that platform last year but is now surprisingly available to stream on Netflix, joining other Stephen King content already on the service.
