Netflix’s Must-Watch Lineup This Week
Netflix is keeping its October slate short but strong with just 10 new titles arriving this week. Despite the lighter schedule, the streaming giant’s lineup packs plenty of punch with two standout releases: Nobody Wants This season 2 and the highly anticipated political thriller A House of Dynamite.
After a breakout debut in 2024, Nobody Wants This became one of Netflix’s biggest surprises, earning three Emmy nominations—including nods for stars Kristen Bell and Adam Brody. The series returns this week with its sophomore season, continuing its mix of dark comedy, sharp writing, and offbeat emotional storytelling that made it a fan favorite.
Kathryn Bigelow’s ‘A House of Dynamite’ Brings the Heat
Arriving Friday, A House of Dynamite promises to be Netflix’s biggest film premiere of the month. Directed by Academy Award-winner Kathryn Bigelow, the film boasts an all-star cast led by Idris Elba, Rebecca Ferguson, and Greta Lee.
The thriller follows a high-stakes political conspiracy that spirals out of control, blending intense action with Bigelow’s signature tension-building style. Early buzz suggests the film could be one of Netflix’s strongest contenders for awards season.
With star power, prestige direction, and blockbuster scale, A House of Dynamite could easily compete with theatrical releases—making it a prime pick for viewers staying home this weekend.
