Netflix Unveils September Lineup: True‑Crime Drama, Possession Thriller and More to Watch

Netflix has revealed its full slate of new movies and shows coming in September, along with an editorial pick‑list of five standout titles. Among the highlights are a grounded drama about a man with dementia who becomes the prime suspect in a murder case, forcing his family to confront both the legal fallout and rumors that he’s possessed by a malevolent spirit. Another spotlighted title leans into supernatural horror while still engaging with real‑world issues like aging populations and tensions in small communities.

The full release calendar also confirms that Netflix will stream the second game of the 2026 NFL regular season exclusively in the US (outside local markets), signaling how serious the platform has become about live sports. For many subscribers, that means their weekend viewing can now move fluidly from scripted shows and films to high‑profile live events without leaving Netflix.

Non‑English language titles from Asia and Europe also feature prominently, suggesting that September will serve as a bridge between big summer series and the more awards‑oriented fall and winter offerings. Availability may vary by region, so viewers in Japan should double‑check the local Netflix listings to see which of these September releases will be accessible on the domestic platform.
