Best upcoming movies on Netflix and other streaming platforms in 2020

Just a few years ago, the idea that we would forsake the big screen for watching films on the substantially tinier TV and mobile screens would have been considered preposterous.

But with streaming services taking the centre-stage, that’s exactly what happened.

While the wealth of material on streaming platforms leaves you spoilt for choice, picking the right films to watch could be a hard task.

Here’s a handy guide for you- the best upcoming movies on Netflix and other streaming platforms in 2020.

All the bright places

The movie is an adaptation of Jennifer Niven’s Young Adult novel of the same name.

Having two young protagonists with distinct personal issues finding companionship and love with each other, it sounds like perfect comfort watch after a long day at work or college.

It will hit Netflix on February 28.

Seberg

This film has already been seen by some people- when it was premiered at the Venice Film Festival last year. Kristen Stewart- who plays the actress and activist, Jean Seberg has got some rave reviews for her performance.

The wider audience would get to see what it’s all about when it comes to Amazon Prime sometime after its February 21 theatrical release.

The Willobuyghs

Though Netflix was the tipping point for the entertainment industry that saw people migrating from movie halls to streaming platforms en masse, the streaming giant has had a limited original animated film portfolio so far.

But that’s set to change as they have announced a slew of new animated originals.

The Willoughbys-about four kids whose parents abandoned them- is directed by Kris Pearn who previously brought us the delightful ‘Cloudy with a chance of meatballs 2.’

The movie will hit Netflix in the US sometime during Spring and is one of the most anticipated upcoming animated movies on Netflix and other streaming platforms this year.

Bad Education

Featuring an all star cast including Hugh Jackman, Ray Romano and Allison Janney, Bad Education tells the true story of a high school experience that’s by turn comedic and dramatic.

HBO- after positive reviews at the Toronto Film Festival- paid a whopping $17.5 million for acquiring it.

That kind of money probably means the flick is really, really, really good. It’s coming to HBO this year, though it’s not sure when exactly.

With so much talent- and money- behind it, this is bound to be among the best upcoming movies on Netflix and other streaming platforms this year.

The last thing he wanted

As far a big names go, the writer Joan Didion and director Dee Rees(Mudbound fame) are familiar names among a certain section of the audience.

A prestige film from Netflix, this film stars Ben Affleck and Anne Hathaway, the latter playing a journalist on the 1984 US presidential election trail and Affleck a state official.

If that’s not star power enough for you, the movie has Williem Dafoe too- playing the journalist’s father.

The movie will be out in 2020 though the date of release is unconfirmed- one of the most anticipated upcoming movies on Netflix and other streaming platforms this year.

Books of blood

Books of blood is one of the most popular series of horror novels. Written by Canadian writer, Clive Barker the series contains some of the most surreal horror ever committed to print.

That aspect should make it an interesting visual project.

The movie adaptation which would star Britt Robertson and Anna Friel would hit Hulu during fall in America.
