Going outside is for suckers. It’s hot. It’s sweaty. It’s just not fun.
If your plans this summer don’t involve pools or camp or baseball, or you’ve foolishly done all of that and now you’re so sunburned you can’t move, it’s good to know that Netflix is planning to release several dozen new movies and shows for families and kids during July and August. All told, when you throw in stuff that’s already available from earlier this season, it adds up to 30 films and shows.
The titles include the animated movie The Sea Beast and a new Kung Fu Panda series featuring Jack Black as the voice of the title character. There’s also new episodes of Gabby’s Dollhouse, The Cuphead Show, and Locke & Key.
Here’s the full lineup of what’s coming to Netflix for kids and families this summer.
