ARTICLE AD BOX
Netflix is about to have a very busy month, with the release of a bunch of titles that’ll make your watchlist even longer – including one of the year’s most underrated films.
Among the biggest new original releases for May 2025 are horror film Fear Street: Prom Queen, Tina Fey TV show The Four Seasons and the final season of animated comedy Big Mouth.
The series to watch this month, though, is Dept Q, which comes from Scott Frank, the creator of The Queen’s Gambit.
Co-written by Chandni Lakhani, the series follows a former top-rated detective (Matthew Goode). who sets up a cold case department full of misfit officers in Edinburgh. If you like Slow Horses, you’ll certainly lap this up.
A title to earmark in the US is Heart Eyes, a romantic comedy and horror mashup released in February. The film received a smattering of positive chatter at its time of release, but was unfairly overlooked as an inventive thrill ride. The film stars Olivia Holt and Mason Gooding as a pair of coworkers who are mistakenly targeted by a serial killer hunting down lovers.
