This is the first time Netflix has announced a yearly features slate from the streamer”s original film division, headed by Scott Stuber since 2017.
Netflix has never released its slate of films all at once. But it hasn’t had this much competition before. HBO Max announcement, and Disney held a massive investor day in December, firing off title after title coming to Disney Plus 2021 and 2022. Netflix, which is better at retaining subscribers, is reminding customers why they stick around: consistency and talent.
Netflix is well-positioned to acquire even more titles in the coming year, as studios have been left with little choice but to abandon traditional release and distribution models for a majority of projects and release them on streaming services instead due to the ongoing impact of COVID-19.
