Fall has always been Netflix’s power move season, and 2026 is no exception. From Tyler Perry’s double comeback to a surprise Tarantino-scripted sequel directed by David Fincher, here’s a compact breakdown of the biggest movies landing on the platform through the rest of the year.

## Netflix’s Big Comebacks

**Why Did I Get Married Again? (September 9)** brings Tyler Perry’s beloved franchise back after 16 years, reuniting Taraji P. Henson, Jill Scott, and the original cast as their now-grown kids prepare to repeat their parents’ mistakes.

**Call My Agent! The Movie (September 10)** revives the hit French dramedy in feature form, following Andréa Martel’s chaotic first attempt at directing a film.

**Doing Life (October 2)** is Perry’s second Fall release, trading comedy for a gritty urban drama about a single mother and a reformed ex-convict forging an unlikely bond.

## Prestige and Awards Contenders

**Animals (October 9)** marks Ben Affleck’s directorial return with a political kidnapping thriller starring Gillian Anderson and Kerry Washington.

**Possible Love (November 6)** is legendary Korean director Lee Chang-dong’s first film since *Burning*, already selected for Venice’s main competition.

**The Adventures of Cliff Booth (December 23)** reunites Brad Pitt with the *Once Upon a Time… in Hollywood* universe, this time scripted by Quentin Tarantino and directed by David Fincher — a genuinely unusual pairing worth watching closely, something we’ll be tracking in our [awards season coverage on Technosports](https://technosports.co.in).

**Ink (January 8, 2027)** opens the Venice Film Festival and stars Guy Pearce as a young Rupert Murdoch building his tabloid empire — a name whose media influence has been documented extensively on [Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rupert_Murdoch).

## Animation and Family Highlights

**Steps (November 20)** reimagines *Cinderella* from the stepsisters’ point of view, led by Ali Wong and Stephanie Hsu.

**Ray Gunn (December 18)** is Brad Bird’s decades-long passion project, a retro-futuristic sci-fi noir voiced by Sam Rockwell and Scarlett Johansson.

**In Waves (December 11)** is a French-Belgian animated tearjerker about young love and illness, based on AJ Dungo’s acclaimed graphic novel.
