Coming June 14

Our Planet II (Netflix original)

Coming June 16

Extraction 2 (Netflix original)

Coming June 19

​Take Care of Maya (Netflix original)

This documentary, streaming days after premiering at the Tribeca Festival, follows the 2016 case of Jack and Beata Kowalski, whose 10-year-old daughter, Maya, was taken from them and declared a ward of the state. It was suspected that Maya, who had been diagnosed with a neurological condition known as complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS), was a victim of child abuse — leading to a legal and emotional nightmare for her parents.

Coming June 23

​The Perfect Find (Netflix original)

Gabrielle Union stars in this rom-com as a former fashion designer in her 40s who’s so down on her luck that she takes a job at a fashion magazine run by her frenemy (Aisha Hinds). There, she winds up falling for a twentysomething videographer — who happens to be her boss’s son.

Coming June 28

Run Rabbit Run (Netflix original)

Sarah Snook (Succession) stars in this creepy thriller as a single mom whose 7-year-old daughter inexplicably develops the personality and memories of her mom’s sister — an animal-loving girl who disappeared without a trace at age 7. This one looks unnerving, and not just because Snook is talking in her native Australian accent.

Coming June 29

The Witcher, Season 3 — Volume 1 (Netflix original)

Showrunner Lauren Schmidt Hissrich promised that unlike Season 2, this season’s episodes will more closely hew to Andrzej Sapkowski’s fantasy saga Sword of Destiny, following the adventures of beast hunter Geralt of Rivia. Fans are anxious because these are the last episodes starring Henry Cavill, who is handing off his sword to Liam Hemsworth for Season 4. (The second batch of episodes will drop in July.)
