Netflix's entire 2021 slate consists of 70 titles, including one trilogy. Out of these 70 titles, 52 are English language live-action, eight are animated and 10 are non-English language films, The Hollywood Reporter has learned.

Speaking about the 2021 film slate, Scott Stuber, head of original films at Netflix, told Variety that the streaming service was able to achieve the “new movie every week” quota by looking at the type of audience that the platform has.

“One of the interesting things you recognize when you’ve got a global audience is, you’re trying to assimilate and make the films that they love. When the audience Is there in so many different formats — we talked a lot about it back in my Universal days when DVD sales and the overall business was more vibrant — you could do a slate like this,” Variety quoted Stuber as saying.

Stuber also revealed that he is pretty excited about the movie “Red Notice” because of its impeccable cast.

Here’s the full list of movies coming out on Netflix in 2021:

“8 Rue de l’Humanité”

“A Boy Called Christmas”

“A Castle for Christmas”

“The Afterlife of the Party”

“Army of the Dead”

“Awake”

“A Week Away”

“A Winter’s Tale from Shaun the Sheep”
