Here's what's new on Netflix Australia in February 2018

As the number of shows and movies available to stream in Australia continues to grow at an impressive rate, it can be tough to keep up with all the new additions to each streaming service each month.

We've all come to anticipate a new stable of Netflix Originals releases each month, but figuring out which shows they are and when exactly they become available isn't so easy. And what about the large number licensed shows and films that are made available to stream, if only for a limited time?

In an effort to keep you informed of the best shows and movies that are in the process of being added to Netflix, we'll be bringing you an updated list of what you can expect on the service on a monthly basis.

Not only that, we'll also be singling out the biggest releases, as well as a number of quality TV shows and films which we believe deserve your Netflixing time.

So get ready to kick off the month with an epic binge – here's what's new on Netflix in February 2018. Check out our highlights video below!

Everything Sucks! (16/2/2018)

Hey remember the '90s? That's basically the premise of this nostalgia-centric series which examines American high school life in 1996. Will it amount to more than nostalgia-bait? With any luck, we might have a new Freaks and Geeks on our hands...

Mute (23/2/2018)

A mute bartender (Alexander Skarsgård) with a violent past is forced to take on the teeming underworld of gangsters in a futuristic Berlin as he searches for his missing girlfriend.

When We First Met (9/2/2018)

A “nice guy” (Adam Devine) misses his chance with a beautiful girl (Alexandra Daddario), only for her end up marrying some other dude (Robbie Amell) years later. Realising that he can travel back in time to the day he met her through an old photo booth they momentarily shared, the guy, who's like totally not a stalker or anything, attempts to woo her over and over again with apparently hilarious results. Pretty creepy for a comedy, but hey – it’s Daddario we’re talking about here.

John Wick: Chapter 2 (16/2/2018)

First, they killed his dog. Now, they've killed his house (while attempting to kill him). Just when he thought he was out... they pull him back in!

Nightcrawler (1/2/2018)

Louis Bloom (Jake Gyllenhaal) enters the seedy world of late night crime journalism, which basically consists of recording bloody carnage in the streets of Los Angeles to sell to fear-mongering news outlets.
