Hit shows and films leaving Netflix next month from huge rom-com to 90s classic
Netflix UK is set to lose a plethora of movies and TV shows in May 2025, with acclaimed titles like 1917, Hidden Figures and Zero Dark Thirty all leaving the platform
Netflix UK is set to bid farewell to a significant number of titles from its vast library, with numerous films and TV shows leaving the streaming service in May. Viewers only have a few days left to watch critically acclaimed blockbusters such as Hidden Figures, Legends of the Fall, 1917, and Zero Dark Thirty, as well as commercially successful hits like Jumanji: The Next Level and Penguins of Madagascar: The Movie, on Netflix before they depart from the platform.
Netflix Originals including Earth Playlist, Get in, and Inhuman Resources, will also cease streaming on the OTT platform this May.
With an impressive 93 per cent score on Rotten Tomatoes, Hidden Figures recounts the extraordinary true story of three African American women - computer genius Dorothy Vaughan, mathematician Katherine Johnson, and engineer Mary Jackson - who defied the odds to become key figures at NASA during the crucial years of the space race in the 1960s. The highly praised Oscar-nominated film will be leaving Netflix on May 1.
Featuring Jessica Chastain, Jason Clarke, Joel Edgerton, Chris Pratt, James Gandolfini, and Kyle Chandler, Zero Dark Thirty details the frustrating hunt, subsequent capture, and ( spoiler ) eventual death of al-Qaeda terrorist leader Osama bin Laden. The Academy Award-winning movie will stop streaming on Netflix from May 16.
John Krasinski's 13 Hours: The Secret Soldiers of Benghazi is set to leave Netflix UK on May 15, along with children's favourite, Peppa Pig: My First Cinema Experience. The final day to catch Netflix Originals Earth Playlist and the French-language thriller, Get In, is April 30, reports the Mirror.
