Time is really flying by this year. We’re nearly at the midpoint of November. But there’s still plenty of new Netflix goodness to enjoy before we ring in 2024. This week’s new on Netflix content has a ton of titles to sift through. We’ve already done the hard part for you, so if you’re too busy figuring out what to buy everyone on your holiday list or getting used to how dark it gets in the afternoon these days, all you have to do is sit back and read to see what’s coming up.
This week’s major standout is Scott Pilgrim Takes Off, the long-awaited anime adaptation of Bryan Lee O’Malley’s popular graphic novel series. It features the same all-star cast (Michael Cera, Mary Elizabeth Winstead, Jason Schwartzman) that director Edgar Wright famously assembled for the live-action movie, but this time around, it’ll be free to explore the comics’ origins a bit more.
There’s also The Crown season 6 part 1, which introduces the most recent chapter of royal history: a look at Princess Diana’s chaotic time dealing with being in the public eye. Elizabeth Debicki returns with a chilling and touching portrayal of the former Princess of Wales as we see what life was like for her ahead of her tragic passing.
This week's new on Netflix also brings Best. Christmas. Ever!, which looks like a fun holiday vehicle about how the grass always looks greener on the other side, even when it comes to your closest friends’ holiday exploits.
Below, check out our day-by-day rundown of what's new on Netflix this week.

Feedback
Marcin Kania (Arkadiusz Jakubik) is a once-revered rock musician, who spends most of his time at the bottom of a bottle. He has to make an attempt to put all that aside when he's forced to search for his missing son in the underbelly of Warsaw's streets. All the while, Kania must confront his demons and the chaos of his past if he wants to see his son again. Adapted from Jakub Żulczyk’s 2023 novel, this series should appeal to viewers looking for something a little dark with plenty of twists and turns to seek their teeth into.

These episodes will follow Diana's journey, against a backdrop of the sun-drenched French Riviera and the relentless flashes of paparazzi cameras. The beloved royal is seen grappling with a life that's constantly on display as well as the fleeting joys of her summer with sons and her relationship with Dodi Fayed (Khalid Abdalla).

Scott Pilgrim Takes Off
Scott Pilgrim (Michael Cera) is a bit of a loser. With no direction in life, he drifts aimlessly through rocking with his friends and unhealthy relationships (like with a high schooler). When Ramona Flowers (Mary Elizabeth Winstead) skates her way into his life, he falls in love, hard. But if he wants to be able to call himself her man, he's got to prove he can take all seven of her evil exes first. This anime adaptation of the live-action film, inspired by the graphic novel series by Bryan Lee O'Malley is a new take on the familiar story. It also features the same heavy-hitters from the movie, like Cera and Winstead in addition to Jason Schwartzman, Audrey Plaza, and Kieran Culkin.

Rustin
Bayard Rustin (Colman Domingo), mentor to Martin Luther King Jr. and architect of the civil rights movement's nonviolent protests, has his time in the spotlight in this film, inspired by true events. Rustin's commitment to justice and equality is highlighted here, even as he navigates the complexities of being an openly gay Black man in a prejudicial society. This biopic demonstrates the resilience and courage of Rustin, who even after contributing immensely to the fight for civil rights, found himself sidelined due to his sexuality.
