Shot across the US and South Korea and powered by Asian American voices on and off screen, BEEF is back. To celebrate, Netflix, the Korean Cultural Center, and the Korean Embassy hosted an advance screening of BEEF Season 2 and a panel discussion at the Motion Picture Association in Washington, DC, with creator Lee Sung Jin, cast Youn Yuh-jung, Seoyeon Jang, and Matthew Kim, and Jinny Howe, Netflix’s Head of Scripted Series for the US and Canada. Local Korean American chefs crafted dishes inspired by the new season, underscoring its Los Angeles–Seoul bridge. From its 8-time Emmy-winning first season to a bold new anthology story, BEEF is leveling up.

Last week in Vancouver, we celebrated the grand opening of Netflix Animation Studios alongside the Honourable Brenda Bailey, B.C.'s Minister of Finance, the Honourable Anne Kang, B.C.’s Minister of Tourism, Arts, Culture and Sport, and Vancouver Deputy Mayor, Sarah Kirby-Yung. Launching a new chapter in Netflix animation from the talented community in B.C. and beyond!

How do you turn complex science into stories that truly connect? At this year’s ChangeNOW Summit in Paris, we screened The Plastic Detox, our new Netflix documentary on the impact of plastic on human health, followed by a live discussion. The film follows six couples with unexplained infertility as they reduce their exposure to plastics in the hope it will help them conceive. With Louie Psihoyos, Emma Stewart, Ph.D., and Dr. Antonio Ragusa, we explored how to humanise data, move beyond “doom and gloom,” and reach audiences far outside the usual sustainability conversation. The Plastic Detox is now streaming on Netflix.

Proud moment for Netflix: our Warsaw hub is now the only engineering office we have outside the US – and it sits at the heart of one of our most dynamic creative markets. In Poland, we’ve delivered 700+ titles, produced 80+ local originals, and supported thousands of jobs, while investing in the local economy. Stories like Znachor show how a deeply local film can become a global success. This is what Netflix does best: empower local creators, backed by world‑class technology, to reach audiences everywhere. And in Poland, we’re only just beginning. Zapraszamy do obejrzenia, jak Polska zmienia Netflix, a Netflix wspiera polskie kino i seriale.

Oscar-nominated filmmakers, beloved Argentine actors, and a new Netflix office in Buenos Aires are at the center of Netflix’s next chapter in Argentina. We are expanding our presence with a larger office in Villa Crespo and a robust slate of series, films, and documentaries coming in 2026 and 2027. The lineup includes a new political thriller from Santiago Mitre, Sebastián Ortega’s upcoming series, and adaptations of works by Mariana Enriquez and Marcelo Larraquy, plus Argentina’s first locally produced short-form series, Carizzma. Fan favorites like Envidiosa, In the Mud, and The Eternaut continue with new seasons, while projects like the Mafalda animated series and The Future is Ours explore different genres and audiences. Documentaries on figures such as Dibu Martínez, Fito Páez and Silvina Luna round out the offering, underscoring Netflix’s ongoing, long-term investment in Argentine stories and talent.

We’re excited to launch Netflix Playground, new way for kids ages 8 and under to play, explore, and interact with their favorite characters, from Peppa Pig to the friends on Sesame Street. Included with every Netflix membership, the app offers a growing library of instantly playable games with no ads, no in-app purchases, and no extra fees — all available offline for on-the-go play. “We’re building a world where kids can not only watch their favorite stories, they can step inside them and interact with their favorite characters,” said John Derderian, Netflix Vice President of Animation Series + Kids & Family TV. “We’re creating a seamless destination for discovery, learning, and play.” Now live in select markets, with global rollout beginning April 28.

We are stepping up to the plate, exporting America’s favorite pastime to new audiences — bringing baseball to a new generation, anytime, anywhere. In Japan, the 2026 World Baseball Classic redefined what live sports on streaming can be. With Netflix as the exclusive home, Japan vs. Australia is now the most-watched title ever on Netflix in Japan — beating every series, film, anime, and sports show. In the US, the 2026 MLB season is off to a hot start. According to Nielsen, MLB Opening Night presented by Adobe averaged about 3 million viewers at any given minute on Netflix — delivering the strongest primetime Opening Day since 2017 among adults 18–49 (about 1.38 million viewers) and the youngest Opening Day audience in the last decade. The action continues later this year with the T-Mobile Home Run Derby on July 13 and MLB at Field of Dreams on August 13, both streaming live only on Netflix.

BTS is back. The world is watching. It’s the power of K-content fandom on Netflix. From Squid Game to Physical: 100, Korean stories are capturing global attention. In 2025, Netflix Ads members watched 1.8B hours of K-content, with 1 in 2 tuning in. These aren’t passive viewers. 84% revisit. 79% notice ads. Attention drives impact. And brands that show up in what fans love become part of the conversation.

What a Dream Team... BTS is seven, always. BTS: THE RETURN, a new documentary film, is now playing!
