Netflix November Slate Adds 40 Originals, Starting With 'Black Doves' on Nov. 5

Netflix will release 40 titles marked as Netflix Original between Nov. 1 and Nov. 30, 2026, according to the platform's published November schedule. The first of those originals arrives Nov. 3 with "Bass X Machina" Season 1, and the last lands Nov. 28 with "Salish's 12 Games of Christmas" Season 1.

The lineup's highest-profile entry is "Heartland," a mystery thriller set for Nov. 13. Jessica Chastain plays a retired country music star who goes looking for her missing niece in Nashville. Netflix lists the title as a Netflix Original.

Julia Garner stars in "The Altruists," a limited series arriving Nov. 19 that follows Caroline Ellison, former CEO of Alameda Research, through the rise and collapse of the crypto exchange FTX. Peter Berg's "The Mosquito Bowl" follows on Nov. 25 as a Netflix Original; the film recounts four college football players who joined the Marines during World War II and later played a final game together.

Returning series fill much of the month. Keira Knightley is back for "Black Doves" Season 2 on Nov. 5, "The Empress" closes with Season 3 on Nov. 12, and "The Hunting Wives" Season 2 arrives Nov. 26. Netflix also lists "The Body" Season 1 on Nov. 11 and "Guarding Stars" on Nov. 18, the latter described as a romantic thriller adapted from Katherine Center's novel "The Bodyguard." W. Bruce Cameron's "A Dog's Perfect Christmas" appears Nov. 4.

Nov. 1 carries the largest single-day batch in the schedule, with 31 titles, none of them marked as originals. That group includes "Bridesmaids," "Whiplash," "Stand by Me," "Looper," "Public Enemies," "The Mummy," "Air Force One," "Fury," "Insidious: Chapter 2," "Insidious: Chapter 3," and "Weekend at Bernie's." Netflix also lists several seasons of library series that day, among them "Rectify" Seasons 1-4, "Happy's Place" Season 2, and "Falsa identidad" Seasons 1-2.

The schedule also carries sports and true-crime programming. "NFL Netflix Gameday: Thanksgiving Eve, Packers vs. Rams" appears Nov. 25, alongside "The Mosquito Bowl." Other dates include "The Trials of Karen Read" Limited Series on Nov. 23 and "Taken: Natalee Holloway" on Nov. 4.

Dates and titles listed for Nov. 1 through Nov. 30 are drawn from Netflix's published November 2026 release calendar. Titles are grouped by availability date, and originals are identified as such in the listing.

Netflix has not published viewership figures or further episode details for any of the November titles in the release calendar.
