New on Netflix in January 2021: ‘Pieces of a Woman,’ ‘Penguin Bloom,’ ‘The Dig’ and more

Netflix continues to expand its slate of original movies in January. Vanessa Kirby plays a woman dealing with grief and loss in “Pieces of a Woman“; Naomi Watts is a young mother who struggles after surviving a near-fatal accident in “Penguin Bloom“; and Carey Mulligan and Ralph Fiennes star as archeologists on the verge of a major find in the historical drama “The Dig.”

Also coming in January are the science-fiction thriller “Outside the Wire,” with Anthony Mackie; India-set drama “The White Tiger,” with Priyanka Chopra; and family-friendly drama “Finding ‘Ohana,” about Brooklyn-raised kids exploring their Hawaiian ancestry.

The live-action fantasy series “Fate: The Winx Saga” debuts in January, along with new seasons of “Cobra Kai,” the animated farce “Disenchantment” and the comedy “Bonding” and the final season of “The Magicians.”

The limited series “Night Stalker: The Hunt For a Serial Killer” continues the Netflix run of the true-crime shows. It’s joined by nonfiction series “The History of Swear Words” and “Headspace Guide to Meditation” and the new documentary “Pretend It’s a City,” from Fran Lebowitz and Martin Scorsese.

Classic and cult movies include Scorsese’s “The Departed” and “Goodfellas“; “Enter the Dragon,” with Bruce Lee; “Bonnie and Clyde,” with Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway; and “Cool Hand Luke” with Paul Newman.

Here’s the list of what’s arriving on Netflix in January, and what’s leaving. Note that these are just highlights; Stream On Demand will be keeping an eye out for other notable films and TV shows that arrive through the month.

Dates are subject to change without notice.
