Everything Coming to Netflix This Week (December 8th)

A brand new week is about to begin and Netflix is ready to continue its impressive run of releases. The past couple of weeks have seen the service release the first new episodes of Stranger Things in over three years, followed by Troll 2, the sequel to one of Netflix’s biggest original films. In just a few days, the streamer will keep things rolling with the release of Rian Johnson and Daniel Craig’s third Knives Out movie.

There are a lot of great additions coming to Netflix over the next week, but none are remotely as big as Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery. The third installment in the beloved whodunit franchise is set to hit Netflix on Friday, December 12th, and will bring Benoit Blanc back into the spotlight for another twisted case.
