Summer is about to arrive, but Netflix is doing its best to keep you inside and lazy on the couch.
The month of June features some huge additions, led by two of the biggest recent blockbuster films in Star Wars: The Last Jedi and Thor: Ragnarok. Yes, those movies are already coming to Netflix (I wish I’d known that when I rented The Last Jedi a couple weeks ago).
Other movie additions include The Departed, National Treasure, 101 Dalmatians, Tarzan, Miracle, Just Friends, and The King’s Speech.
And on the Netflix Originals front, we get new seasons of GLOW and Luke Cage, as well as the Sense8 two-hour movie/finale.
The bad news is that, as always, we’re losing some selections. Captain America: Civil War, Training Day, Men in Black, 8 Mile, and 50 First Dates are among the movies on the way out, along with eight seasons of the excellent CNN reality series Anthony Bourdain: Parts Unknown.
Here’s a full look at what’s coming to Netflix in June (I’ve put some notable titles in bold to try to help you out, but keep in mind there may be some selections you find more important than I do):

Watch the first season of Luke Cage (and in my opinion, Jessica Jones), but don’t force yourself to watch The Defenders (it’s totally fine, but should’ve been much better and you’re left disappointed that it wasn’t).
