With 2025 now coming to an end, it’s been a hectic year for both new releases and productions, but it’s time to start looking ahead to the New Year. What’s going to be in production throughout the first few months of 2026? We’ve got you covered with an early guide below. 

When will all these movies and shows come out? We typically find that it takes 9-18 months for a project to release on the streamer after it wraps filming, so in a few of these cases, you may see them by the end of 2026. Obviously, for bigger budget titles with lots of VFX and the like, they’ll take longer, and a smaller sitcom will have a shorter runway to release. For the most part, though, this list will undoubtedly make up the bulk of the 2027 slate of titles.
