After a huge start to October, the pace doesn\u2019t let up this week. Keri Russell is back in the hot seat, Chris Evans and Anya Taylor-Joy crash a charity gala in one of Netflix\u2019s wildest movies of the year, and a long-awaited tribute to one of comedy\u2019s greatest arrives \u2014 plus some seriously strong licensed picks, including Michael Mann\u2019s Heat.<\/p>\n<p>Here is a breakdown of everything coming to Netflix between October 12th and October 18th, 2026, including three expanded highlights you definitely won\u2019t want to miss. For the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.whats-on-netflix.com\/coming-soon\/whats-coming-to-netflix-in-october-2026\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">full list of October 2026 releases<\/a>, keep it locked here on What\u2019s on Netflix.<\/p>\n<p>Also a quick note, if you\u2019re looking for Netflix\u2019s Gary Glitter documentary, you may have missed the news that the docu-series has been delayed indefinitely.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Best New Shows and Movies Coming to Netflix This Week<br \/>\nThe Diplomat (Season 4)<\/p>\n<p>Coming to Netflix: Thursday<\/p>\n<p>Kate Wyler is back, and the stakes have never been higher. Keri Russell returns for a fourth season of Netflix\u2019s Emmy-winning political thriller, juggling international crises, backroom power plays, and a marriage that\u2019s somehow even more volatile than the geopolitics. Sharp, fast-talking, and endlessly bingeable, The Diplomat remains one of the best dramas Netflix has going, and this is easily the biggest series release of the week.<\/p>\n<p>Sacrifice (2026)<\/p>\n<p>Coming to Netflix: Friday (US and other select regions only)<\/p>\n<p>Chris Evans and Anya Taylor-Joy headline this gleefully unhinged satirical action-thriller. Evans plays an existential movie star whose glitzy charity gala goes sideways in a hurry when a group of eco-warriors storms the party and takes him hostage. Expect sharp jabs at celebrity self-importance, plenty of chaos, and a cast clearly having a blast. If you want one new movie to watch this weekend, this is it.<\/p>\n<p>Norm: The Tale of Norm Macdonald (2026)<\/p>\n<p>Coming to Netflix: Friday<\/p>\n<p>Fans have waited a long time for this one. Netflix\u2019s documentary celebrates the late, great Norm Macdonald, the bone-dry SNL Weekend Update anchor and stand-up whose deadpan delivery and gloriously long-winded shaggy-dog jokes made him a comedian\u2019s comedian. Whether you grew up on his moth joke or are only just discovering him, this is a must-watch tribute to one of the most singular voices comedy ever had.<\/p>\n<p>Full List of New Arrivals Planned for Netflix US This Week<br \/>\nComing to Netflix on Monday, October 12th<\/p>\n<p>Fire Spike (Season 1) \u2013 The animated YouTube series makes the jump to Netflix.<br \/>\nFree Leonard Peltier (2025) Netflix Original \u2013 A powerful documentary on the 50-year fight to free Native American activist Leonard Peltier, imprisoned after a deeply controversial 1970s trial.<br \/>\nSe\u00f1ora Acero (Seasons 1-5) \u2013 Telemundo\u2019s soapy narco-drama about a housewife who becomes a ruthless cartel queen after learning her murdered husband\u2019s secret.<br \/>\nWayne (Season 1) \u2013 A violent, darkly hilarious cult-favorite about a hammer-wielding teen on a road trip to reclaim his dead father\u2019s Trans Am.
