Netflix has announced everything coming to the streaming service in July 2025, and there are some heavy hitters. It wasn’t too hard to find five must-watch shows and movies that you need to add to your watchlist.
First up is “The Old Guard 2.” This superhero movie is the sequel to 2020’s “The Old Guard,” which we ranked number 78 on our list of the top 100 superhero movies. Starring Charlize Theron and Uma Thurman, it’s undoubtedly the top title this month.
Then there’s “The Sandman” season 2, which is arriving in three waves this month for a bittersweet series finale. If you watched the first season of the DC Comics adaptation in 2022, you’ll know that this show isn’t one to miss.
Aside from these top picks, I’ve got the full slate of everything new to Netflix this month listed below. Plus, we have a roundup of what’s leaving Netflix in July 2025, so you have one last chance to watch.
Here’s everything coming to — and leaving — Netflix this month.
New on Netflix in July 2025: Top picks
‘The Old Guard 2’
Watch On
“The Old Guard 2” has Charlize Theron reprising as Andromache of Scythia (known to her friends as Andy). She’s the leader of a group of immortal soldiers who are mercenaries for hire.
But immortality gives you a lot of time to make enemies, and Andy has made a powerful one in Quyhn (Ngô Thanh Vân) — a fellow immortal whom Andy left to drown for eternity 500 years early.
Quyhn has finally escaped her watery prison, though, and she’s looking for payback. She’s not the only one targeting Andy and her soldiers, either. Discord (Uma Thurman) is hunting her down and she’s the first of the immortals, so there’s no tougher foe out there.
Stream on Netflix starting July 2
‘The Sandman’ season 2
Watch On
“The Sandman” was a favorite of a few of us here at Tom’s Guide (myself included) when it came out in 2022. So when it was renewed relatively quickly later that year, I was excited for more.
Since that announcement, though, Netflix has also decided to cancel the show, making season 2 its final season. This was in no small part due to the allegations of sexual assault against Neil Gaiman, who created “The Sandman” and was an executive producer on the Netflix series.
Despite this bittersweet ending, it does look like Netflix spared no expense for Lord Morpheus’s (Tom Sturridge) last hurrah, and the trailer brings back some familiar faces. I’m personally most excited for the return of The Corinthian (Boyd Holbrook), who was the main villain of season 1.
Volume 1 drops six episodes on July 3, with Volume 2 dropping the final five episodes of season 2’s main storyline on July 24. A series finale special episode will arrive on July 31, bringing the show to a close.
Stream Volume 1 on Netflix starting July 3
‘Too Much’
Watch On
“Too Much” stars Megan Stalter as Jessica, who leaves New York for London after a bad breakup.
There, she meets Felix (Will Sharpe), an indie musician who is not the Hugh Grant type she was hoping to meet, but he might just be the right person for her right now.
This show was one of my most anticipated Netflix shows of 2025 when the year started, and it still is. Stalter has been great in “Hacks,” I’ve loved Sharpe in “The White Lotus” season 2 and “A Real Pain and while show creator Lena Dunham isn’t always everyone’s favorite, there’s no denying that she’s created brilliant TV before.
Stream on Netflix starting July 10
‘Happy Gilmore 2’
Watch On
“Happy Gilmore” is likely on Adam Sandler’s Mount Rushmore of greatest performances. The ice hockey player turned professional golfer was iconic in the 90s and it still is today.
At least, that seems to be what Netflix is counting on, as “Happy Gilmore 2” looks like more of the same as the first movie based on the official trailer.
This sequel is set 30 years after winning the Tour Championship in the first movie, and has a retired Happy needing to return to golf to pay for his daughter Vienna’s (Sunny Sandler) ballet school.
But a familiar face in Shooter McGavin (Christopher McDonald) is standing in Happy’s way, and is on a quest to take back his title.
Stream on Netflix starting July 25
‘Untamed’
Watch On
“Untamed” is a new Netflix miniseries created by Mark L. Smith, who most recently was part of the team behind “American Primeval,” a miniseries from Peter Berg that debuted on Netflix earlier this year.
So it’s safe to say that the creative team behind this new thriller set in Yellowstone National Park has some familiarity with the expanse of the wild American West.
In this murder mystery, a woman’s death in the national park has federal agent Kyle Turner (Eric Bana) looking for answers. To find them, he will need to go into the depths of the park, where the only laws that rule are the laws of nature.

Costa gains extraordinary access to current President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, former President Jair Bolsonaro and the nation’s magnetic televangelist Silas Malafaia. More than a chronicle of political change, Apocalypse in the Tropics is a cinematic investigation of the fault lines that emerge when religion fuels political ambition.

As faith shifts from private refuge to public battleground, Brazil holds a mirror to a world where democracies are being tested by the power of prophecy.
