Netflix: Coming and Leaving in May 2024

Netflix announced the list of movies, television series, and specials that are coming and leaving the streaming service in May 2024.

All titles and dates are subject to change.

Break out the acid-washed jeans and don’t forget the shoulder pads, because Milestone Movies: The Anniversary Collection is heading to the ’80s.

After launching in January to celebrate films marking major anniversaries this year, Netflix is keeping the anniversary festivities going with a packed slate of 1984 movies that are turning the big 4-0 in 2024. The films now streaming in the US include A Nightmare on Elm Street, Sixteen Candles, and Beverly Hills Cop (which is perfectly timed for a rewatch before Beverly Hills Cop: Alex F arrives this summer).

Find more information on the 1984 films below and watch the films in the collection on Netflix here.
