Netflix Quietly Added Over 50 Popular Movies Today

With the arrival of a new month, Netflix has added a whole array of popular movies to its United States catalog. The streaming giant regularly rotates films in and out of its inventory to keep its availability fresh, and the first of the month is always the biggest day for this.

This June, Netflix has added more than fifty popular movies and around fifteen existing series to its U.S. catalog for audiences to enjoy. This is in addition to the original programming, which will be spread out throughout the month.

Netflix Adds Four Action Movie Collections

The movies that Netflix adds every month are generally decided by existing licensing agreements, as movies typically drift between streaming platforms like Netflix, Amazon, and Hulu to keep their audiences fresh. Since movie sequels are often owned by the same company, this means entire franchises can arrive on Netflix at once.

This month, Netflix is adding four major action movie franchises right away. The Rocky collection features Sylvester Stallone's beloved 1979 sports drama and four of its immediate sequels. The only installment that isn't arriving on June 1 is Rocky II, as it was already available on the platform.

To complement the Rocky collection, Netflix is also adding all three Creed movies to its U.S. catalog. Starring Michael B. Jordan in the lead role, these legacy sequels take place many years after the Rocky movies and follow Stallone's character as he mentors a new generation of boxing talent.

Netflix is also introducing the Karate Kid collection to its ad-free tier for the first time. This collection features the original 1980s trilogy and the 2010 Hollywood remake, but not the critically panned The Last Karate Kid from 1994.

Finally, Netflix is bringing the Riddick collection to its United States inventory. Starring Vin Diesel in the lead role, this trilogy follows a dangerous convict who leads a team of survivors after their spacecraft lands on a mysterious planet. All three movies were added to the platform on June 1, 2026.

More Movie Collections Coming To Netflix in June

Besides these four action collections, Netflix is also bringing franchises such as Father of the Bride and Scooby Doo to its catalog. These beloved comedies have previously been available on Netflix in the U.S. but were rotated to different platforms as part of the streamer's licensing agreements.

For romance fans, Netflix is adding movies such as The Fault in Our Stars, The Wedding Planner, and Runaway Bride this month. There will also be no shortage of thrillers for the adrenaline junkie audience, including The Girl on the Train, Inside Man, and If I Can't Have You.
