Netflix's New Releases Coming in July 2025
One of Netflix's big movie plays for July is the sequel to its very silly but very fun action fantasy film The Old Guard. Debuting on July 2, the Victoria Mahoney-directed film once again sees Charlize Theron playing Andromache of Scythia, aka Andy, the leader of a band of vigilante immortals. In The Old Guard 2, following on from the climax of the first film, Andy must come to terms with her newfound mortality while preparing to face a mysterious foe (played by Uma Thurman). The cast includes returnees KiKi Layne, Marwan Kenzari, Luca Marinelli, Matthias Schoenaerts and Chiwetel Ejiofor, and newcomers Thurman and Henry Golding.

Quarterback, the sports docuseries, is back for its second season this month, debuting on July 8. The show, produced by Netflix in partnership with NFL Films, 2PM Productions, and Peyton Manning's Omaha Productions, is in the vein of the streamer's phenomenally successful Drive to Survive docuseries. Season one of Quarterback followed Patrick Mahomes, Kirk Cousins, and Marcus Mariota through the 2022 season. Season two will see Cousins return, this time as a member of the Atlanta Falcons, with Joe Burrow of the Cincinnati Bengals and Jared Goff of the Detroit Lions.
On July 9, Netflix debuts its new music competition series, Building the Band. The show was notably the last television appearance of the late One Direction singer Liam Payne, who died tragically in October 2024. Before his death, Payne recorded episodes as a guest judge on the series that is hosted by Backstreet Boys' AJ McLean, with Nicole Scherzinger (The Pussycat Dolls) serving as mentor-judge and Destiny's Child's Kelly Rowland also serving as a guest judge. Following Payne's death, the show's producers and Payne's family were weighing his inclusion in the series. Ultimately, they have decided to move forward with Payne remaining in the show.
Launching in three parts over the month of July is the second and final season of The Sandman, the fantasy series adaptation of Neil Gaiman's iconic graphic novels. Despite stellar reviews and decent ratings for season one, the followup and indeed the very existence of a second season hung in the balance as Gaiman was accused of sexual assault by five women in July 2024, and by four more women in January 2025. The second season will conclude the story for Dream (played by Tom Sturridge), the show's central character and part one will debut on July 3, with part two on July 24 with a special episode concluding things on July 31. Season two will feature a number of fan-favorite characters reprising their roles, including Mason Alexander Park as Desire, Gwendoline Christie as Lucifer, Vivienne Acheampong as Lucienne, and Patton Oswalt as the voice of Matthew the Raven. Jenna Coleman, Donna Preston, Esmé Creed-Miles, Adrian Lester, Barry Sloane, Ferdinand Kingsley, Stephen Fry, Asim Chaudhry, Sanjeev Bhaskar, Razane Jammal, Ruairi O'Connor, Freddie Fox, Clive Russell, Laurence O'Fuarain, Ann Skelly, Douglas Booth, Jack Gleeson, Indya Moore, and Steve Coogan also appear.
A potential breakout film for Netflix this month could be the Korean psychological thriller Wall to Wall, which debuts on July 18. In demand filmmaker Kim Tae-joon, who wrote and directed the disturbing tech thriller Unlocked for the streamer, is back with another feature that is sure to linger with its audience. According to the logline, Wall to Wall is about 'Woo-sung, a financially burdened homeowner who struggles to find sleep and peace in what should be his dream home. When all his neighbors accuse him of being the source of the noise, he sets out to find the source himself and prove his innocence.'
The other big Hollywood film release for Netflix in July, and the feature most likely to shoot up the top 10 list and dominate social media, is the sequel to Adam Sandler's classic and endlessly quotable golf comedy Happy Gilmore. The first film, released all the way back in 1996, featured Sandler as a failed hockey player with a knack for booming golf drives, and the Kyle Newacheck-directed sequel sees Happy picking up his clubs once more to pay for his daughter's school fees. As well as Sandler, Julie Bowen, Christopher 'Shooter McGavin' McDonald, and Ben Stiller reprise their roles from the original film while Benny Safdie and Bad Bunny are newcomers. Happy Gilmore 2 debuts on July 25.
Movies added to Netflix in July include Blow, Born on the Fourth of July, Captain Phillips, The Deer Hunter, Friday Night Lights, Here Comes the Boom, The Hitman's Bodyguard, The Hitman's Wife's Bodyguard, Horrible Bosses, The Karate Kid, The Karate Kid, The Karate Kid Part II, The Karate Kid Part III, Mission: Impossible, Mission: Impossible II, Mission: Impossible III, Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol, Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation, The Notebook, Pacific Rim, The Sweetest Thing, Tangerine, V for Vendetta, White Chicks, Jaws, Jaws 2, Jaws 3 and Jaws: The Revenge.

Steelers legend Big Ben says prime Aaron Rodgers is better than current Patrick Mahomes
Ben Roethlisberger was tasked with choosing between two of the greatest quarterbacks to ever play — and the Steelers legend turned heads with his selection. On a recent livestream of his Footbahlin with Ben Roethlisberger podcast, a fan asked Big Ben whether he'd choose prime Aaron Rodgers or current Patrick Mahomes — and this was his response: Advertisement "Well, I would take Aaron in his prime over Patrick now," Roethlisberger said. "I think Aaron Rodgers in his prime was one of the top few to ever do it — and so is Patrick Mahomes at his prime. Patrick Mahomes is just entering out of his prime, I think." Big Ben would go on to clarify that he believes Mahomes will go down as one of the GOATs — but his admiration of Rodgers is clearly second to none. Rodgers and Mahomes never got their chance to have their State Farm Bowl — but the two multi-time MVPs could still theoretically face off in the playoffs this season.

Patrick Mahomes' trainer blasts Steelers legend Ben Roethlisberger over recent comments
Ben Roethlisberger is under fire from Patrick Mahomes over recent comments he made a few weeks ago. It all began when the Steelers legend set off an NFL debate firestorm on his podcast — answering the question: who's better, prime Aaron Rodgers or current Mahomes? Roethlisberger chose Rodgers, claiming the Chiefs superstar QB was exiting his prime — a comment that rubbed Mahomes' trainer, Bobby Stroupe, the wrong way. Advertisement Stroupe took to social media to defend Mahomes, whose 30th birthday is just around the corner. "Not everybody quits working out at 30 years old, Ben." Roethlisberger was hardly the model for fitness and career longevity during his 18-year run — even poking fun at the legendary Tom Brady for allegedly eating 'avocado ice cream' to stay at peak levels — but chances are, he wasn't trying to take a shot at Mahomes. It remains to be seen if Big Ben will respond to the criticism on the next episode of his Footbahlin with Ben Roethlisberger podcast, but his original comments were practically harmless — so it would come as no surprise if he simply brushed the situation under the rug.
