The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring – 1/11
Calling all fantasy fans! LOTR has finally arrived in Netflix, so we can all check in with the hobbits of the Shire at the beginning of their adventure to destroy the Ring of power, save Middle Earth from it's fate and try a pint of beer for the very first time. On their way they meet Aragorn, Legolas, Boromir, Gimli and Gandalf, and become an unlikely group of friends.
House of Cards – 2/11
House of Cards' sixth and final season will air this November and it's packing some serious girl power with President Claire Underwood officially in the Oval Office. The last series saw Robin Wright’s character Claire get sworn in after Frank Underwood resigns following an investigation for his involvement in the death of Zoe Barnes. Picking up where it left off the final season will centre around Claire as she takes over the role of President of the United States. The political drama’s last series will no longer feature Kevin Spacey's character, Frank, and will span eight only episodes as opposed to its previous 13.

Outlaw King - 09/11
With a very convincing Scottish accent, Chris Pine has swapped his Star Fleet uniform for a kilt in this historical Netflix original drama. The synopsis reads: "After being crowned King of Scotland, legendary warrior Robert the Bruce is forced into exile by the English and leads a band of outlaws to help him reclaim the throne."
The Sinner – 9/11
With Season one frontwoman Jessica Biel acting as Executive Producer, The Sinner's new season is set to be just as good as the first. Season two follows Ambrose (Bill Pullman) as he returns to his hometown to work on an unsettling and eerie crime — parents murdered by their 11-year-old son. As the investigation brings the hidden darkness of his hometown to light, Ambrose must work against those who aim to protect the secrets of the townspeople in hopes of unravelling the truth. Already in full swing in the US, we can't wait to watch when this bone-chilling series lands on Netflix in the UK.
