Netflix Christmas Thriller Continues Dominating Charts After the Holidays

The holidays may be over, but Netflix’s his Christmas thriller hasn’t lost any steam as we kick off a new year. The streamer’s holiday rom-coms and Santa adventures aren’t holding high spots on the daily charts anymore, but the Die Hard-adjacent action movie Carry-On has continued its dominance as the biggest movie on Netflix.

Starring Taron Egerton and Jason Bateman, Carry-On is a thriller set on Christmas Eve, when a TSA agent gets a phone call about a dangerous package onboard an aircraft. Like Die Hard, Carry-On is a movie that may be set at Christmas, but has major appeal well beyond the holidays.

On Wednesday, a week after Christmas, Carry-On remains the biggest movie on Netflix. Even with the recent arrival of huge Warner Bros. films like Dune: Part Two and Furiosa, Carry-On has held steady atop Netflix’s charts.
