What's New On Netflix: December 2017

Happy Holidays! It's officially December, which means the cold winter weather will soon be rolling in. But don't despair, because Netflix has a slate of sizzling movies to cure your winter blues and bring you plenty of holiday cheer.

The most anticipated Netflix release this month is Season 2 of the award-winning Netflix biopic, "The Crown," in which Claire Foy returns as Queen Elizabeth. Fans of royalty period dramas can satiate their appetites even more with "The Young Victoria," starring Emily Blunt in the titular role as young Queen Victoria.

Other highlights include Marvel's "Guardians Of The Galaxy Vol. 2," (with Chris Pratt leading a motley crew of galaxy protectors) and the sci-fi fantasy film "Bright," which stars Will Smith as a cop living in a world of both humans and mythical creatures. Also making a splash is Natalie Portman's "V For Vendetta" and Eminem's autobiographical "8 Mile."

If you're looking to get into the holiday groove, you can now stream classics like "The Santa Clause" films, "You Can't Fight Christmas," "Trolls Holiday Special," "Home: For the Holidays," and Sandra Bullock's rom-com "While You Were Sleeping."

People of all ages can look forward to family films and shows like "Little Rascals," "Planet Earth II," "Fuller House," "All Hail King Julien," and "Trollhunters Part 2" (directed by Guillermo del Torro, whose monster movie "The Shape of Water" is in movie theaters this month).

Finally, the streaming giant has some light-hearted offerings in store that will make you laugh — and cry. Among them are Jim Carrey's "Ace Ventura" films, Jack Black's "Nacho Libre," Robin Williams's "August Rush," Will Smith's "Hitch," Ben Kingsley's "The Wackness," and Dave Chappelle's New Year's Eve special, "Equanimity."
