A new month on Netflix brings a whole heap of new movies and TV shows to the Australian library, 70 in fact! Here’s what’s new on Netflix Australia this week for April 2nd, 2022.
First of all, here are the past week’s highlights:
Fantastic Beasts and Where To Find Them (2016)
Director: David Yates
Genre: Adventure, Family, Fantasy | Runtime: 132 Minutes
Cast: Eddie Redmayne, Katherine Waterston, Alison Sudol, Dan Fogler, Sam Redford
In the wake of the end of the Harry Potter movies, fans were still desperate for more content from the Wizarding World. Naturally, Warner and JK Rowling were more than happy to oblige, and in 2016 the adaptation of Rowling’s obscure magical textbook hit cinemas around the world.
While on a mission in New York City, the British wizard, and Magizoologist, Newt Scamander loses his magical suitcase, containing a whole menagerie of magical creatures, which escape. Enlisting the help of the muggle, Jacob, together, they attempt to recapture the magical beasts before they wreak havoc on the streets of New York.
Jersey Boys (2014)
Director: Clint Eastwood
Genre: Biography, Drama, Music | Runtime: 134 Minutes
Cast: John Lloyd Young, Erich Bergen, Michael Lomenda, Vincent Piazza, Steve Schirripa
One of the most surprising moves of Clint Eastwood’s illustrious career was taking on the fantastic musical and biopic of the lives and careers of the Four Seasons.
From the wrong side of the tracks, to becoming one of the biggest musical stars of the 60s, the rise of Franki Valli and the Four Seasons was wrought with drama.
Jumanji: The Next Level (2019)
Director: Jake Kasdan
Genre: Action, Adventure, Comedy | Runtime: 123 Minutes
Cast: Dwayne Johnson, Jack Black, Kevin Hart, Karen Gillan, Awkwafina
Sony’s soft reboot of the Jumanji franchise has been incredibly successful, capitalizing on the success of the first film, Jumanji: The Next Level made over $800 million at the box office, resulting in over $1.7 billion between just two movies.
Three years on after Spencer, Martha, Fridge, and Bethany beat the game Jumanji, the group promised to reunite. After Spencer fails to show up, Martha, Fridge, and Bethany go in search of their friend, only to discover Spencer has been sucked back into the world of Jumanji. Determined to bring him back to the real world, the trio goes back into the dangerous world, only to discover Spencer’s grandfather Eddie, and his friend Milo have also been dragged along. What they discover is an even more dangerous world, and survival is harder than ever.
