May 2026 is set to be a busy month for Netflix UK, with a host of new releases including original series, documentaries, and returning favourites. Among the most anticipated titles is the crime drama Legends from Guilt creator Neil Forsyth, starring Steve Coogan, and an adaptation of the novel Remarkably Bright Creatures, marking Sally Field's return to the screen.
Season two of the hit comedy drama The Four Seasons, which debuted in 2025, will also premiere, alongside a documentary on Only Murders in the Building star Martin Short. Another highlight is The Boroughs, a sci-fi series produced by the Duffer brothers, following residents of a retirement community fighting an otherworldly threat. The cast includes Bill Pullman, Geena Davis, Clarke Peters, Alfred Molina, and Alfre Woodard.
Perhaps the most exciting addition is Everyone is Doing Great, the US coming-of-age comedy series that started in 2021. Its arrival is notable because it includes season two, which has never been streamed globally before. The show follows Seth and Jeremy, five years after their hit vampire TV drama Eternal ended, as they navigate life and love.
Other May releases include The Rhythm of Revenge season one (new episodes weekly), Pop Culture Jeopardy! season one (new episodes daily), and Navy SEALs: America’s Secret Warriors seasons one and 20. A full list of all titles arriving and leaving Netflix this month is available on What’s on Netflix.
