What to watch on Netflix: New TV shows and movies, plus what's leaving in July 2024
"Cobra Kai" is back for its final season, while a Sandra Bullock and Ryan Reynolds rom-com is being removed, along with films starring Brad Pitt, Ryan Gosling
Summer is in full swing and while some people may have a bit more time to binge a TV show or have a movie marathon, some titles on Netflix in Canada are on their way out. But there are still new things enjoy in July, including a docuseries on Simone Biles, just in time for the 2024 Paris Olympics, and the first part of Cobra Kai Season 6, the final season for the series.
Popular rom-coms like The Proposal with Sandra Bullock and Ryan Reynolds, are leaving Netflix next month. And there are only a few days left to watch adventure films like Christopher Nolan's Interstellar, with Matthew McConaughey, Anne Hathaway, Jessica Chastain, John Lithgow, Ellen Burstyn, Timothée Chalamet and David Oyelowo.
In the action genre The Running Man starring Arnold Schwarzenegger will be removed from Netflix in July, along with 20212's Total Recall with Colin Farrell, Bryan Cranston, Kate Beckinsale, Jessica Biel, Bill Nighy and Bokeem Woodbine.
Christopher Nolan's 2014 film Interstellar, with Matthew McConaughey, Anne Hathaway, Jessica Chastain, John Lithgow, Ellen Burstyn, Timothée Chalamet and David Oyelowo, is leaving Netflix on July 15. And Nobody starring Bob Odenkirk is being removed at the beginning of the month.
Kenan Thompson and Kel Mitchell are among the most iconic comedy duos, particularly for anyone who grew up in the '90s and 2000s, but their feature film Good Burger will be leaving Netflix next month. While many people are second guessing their viewing of any Nickelodeon-affiliated project, particularly ones like Good Burger written by Dan Schneider (who also acts in the film), anyone in Canada who wants to still watch this 1997 movie will have to sign up for Paramount+, also home to the 2023 film Good Burger 2.
Another film written by Dan Schneider, Big Fat Liar, is also being removed from the streaming site next month, on July 5. We'll never forget Paul Giamatti dancing to "Hungry Like The Wolf" by Duran Duran and turning blue.
Keeping on the trend of movies with controversial people in Hollywood leaving Netflix, the Guy Ritchie film The Man From U.N.C.L.E. starring Armie Hammer will only be on Netflix in Canada for a few more days, and the 2022 movie Devotion with Jonathan Majors is also leaving Netflix in July.
Comedies seeing their last days on Netflix include The Proposal, starring Sandra Bullock and Ryan Reynolds, and Horrible Bosses with Jason Bateman, Charlie Day, Jason Sudeikis and Jennifer Aniston. Kevin Hart and Gabrielle Union's Think Like A Man Too, and Going the Distance, starring Drew Barrymore and Justin Long, will also be removed from the streaming site.
The 2016 film The Nice Guys, with Russell Crowe and Ryan Gosling, will be removed from Netflix at the beginning of July.
For crime and thriller fans, this is your last chance to watch Inside Man, starring Denzel Washington, Clive Own, Jodie Foster, Christopher Plummer and Willem Dafoe on Netflix.
The 1994 Western Legends of the Fall, starring Brad Pitt and Anthony Hopkins will also be removed from Netflix on July 1.

The Boyfriend - July 9
Japan’s first same-sex romance reality series is coming to Netflix next month with The Boyfriend.

Kathleen Jordan's upcoming series The Decameron is stacked with some of our favourite actors, including Tony Hale, Zosia Mamet, Saoirse Monica-Jackson, Tanya Reynolds and Amar Chadha-Patel, which makes us particularly excited for its July 25 premiere.
The series takes us to the Italian countryside in 1348, during the Black Death pandemic. A number of nobles have retreated to a villa in an effort to wait out the spread of this plague, resulting in what's described as a "wine-soaked sex romp."
