What’s new on Netflix and what’s leaving in April 2025

The cast of You.
Netflix

Netflix is all about you in April. Or more specifically, You season 5, which will wrap up the series. This is one of the most successful Netflix shows that started off somewhere else before becoming a true hit on Netflix. Lifetime canceled its exploration of Joe Goldberg (Penn Badgley), a psychopath who develops obsessive relationships with women. But once You reached Netflix, female fans in particular loved Joe despite everything he did.

Black Mirror is also returning for its seventh season this month, and the sci-fi anthology series has once again attracted established stars for its one-off stories. For movie lovers, a handful of classics, including Field of Dreams, The Breakfast Club, Heat, and The Addams Family, are back on Netflix as well.
