- Netflix announced its planned 2026 lineup via press releases and the 'Next on Netflix' rollout, with many premieres starting on January 20.

- Amid promotional stunts, the Teyana Taylor animatronic promotional stunt in New York later this month reflects unconventional marketing, while documentary subjects include Kylie Minogue, Gordon Ramsay, Rafael Nadal, David Attenborough, Steven Spielberg, and creators departing for new deals starting in May.
