TL;DR: Here are the Netflix movies and TV shows for the month of May.

Here are the movies and TV shows coming to Netflix this month of May. Time sure flies fast as we enter the second month of Q2 2021.

As many of us are still stuck at home, you may want to check out this list of films that is coming to the streaming service. Pick out which one you want and mark your calendars.

Personally, I’m excited for part two of season five of Lucifer and Castlevania. It was a long time coming, and it’s finally showing.

Other films that show promise (to me at least) are the Army of the Dead and Jupiter’s Legacy. It’s hard to stay away from zombies, Batista, and superheroes.
