Bong Joon Ho’s “Mickey 17,” a new batch of the final season of “Stranger Things” and Kevin Hart debuting a new comedy special on Netflix are some of the new television, films and music headed to a device near you.

Movies

Taiwanese filmmaker Shih-Ching Tsou makes her solo directorial debut with “Left-Handed Girl,” about a single mother and her two daughters who return to Taipei to open a stand at a night market. It begins streaming on Netflix on Nov. 28.

Bong Joon Ho’s “Mickey 17” arrives on Prime Video on Thursday, Nov. 26, for some dystopian holiday viewing. In an extremely physical, committed, even exhausting performance, Pattinson takes what could have been an unwieldy mess and makes it much less, well, expendable.”

Music

In 2021, over Thanksgiving, Disney+ released Peter Jackson’s six-hour “The Beatles: Get Back” to its streaming platform. The gargantuan project provided fans with a deep dive into the band’s “Let It Be” sessions — including footage of their entire rooftop concert, shared in full for the first time. It was an ideal release date, to say the least. After all that delicious food, who doesn’t want to settle in for a lengthy journey into one of the greatest musical acts of all time? Well, in 2025, there’s yet another reason to be grateful — starting Wednesday, “The Beatles Anthology” documentary series hits Disney+.

Series

It's hard to believe that “Everybody Loves Raymond” has been off the air for two decades. The multicamera sitcom starred Ray Romano and Patricia Heaton as Ray and Debra Barone, a young married couple whose daily lives are interrupted regularly by Ray's meddling parents, played by Peter Boyle and Doris Roberts, who live across the street. CBS recently taped a 30th anniversary special to air Monday which will also stream on Paramount+.

“Stranger Things” is finally back with its fifth and final season. Netflix is releasing the sci-fi series in three parts, and the first four episodes drop Wednesday. Millie Bobby Brown says fans will “lose their damn minds” with how it ends.

Also Monday, Kevin Hart debuts a new comedy special on Netflix. It's called “Kevin Hart: Acting My Age.” The jokes center around, you guessed it, aging.
