Netflix's recent releases:
Netflix recently released a steamy trailer video of the 5th season of Lucifer and revealed that the show will hit the streaming service on August 21, 2020. In 2019, the streaming giant renewed the series for a fifth and final 10-episode long season. However, considering a passionate response received from the fandom, the makers of the show have now increased the number of episodes to 16 in the fifth season. If the reports are to be believed, Netflix will now bankroll the sixth season of Lucifer. Recently, Netflix announced that it will release two rom-coms in collaboration with actor Reese Witherspoon.
As per a report published by a leading news publication, Reese's production company has teamed with Aggregate Films' Jason Bateman and Michael Costigan to produce Your Place Or Mine, which will be a romantic comedy. The makers of the film have roped in Aline Brosh McKenna, who is known for her work in The Devil Wears Prada and Crazy Ex-Girlfriend, to fill in the director's shoes. Netflix has also acquired the rights for the bestselling novel, The Cactus, which will be fashioned as a second-star vehicle that Reese Witherspoon and Lauren Neustadter will bankroll together.
