6 new Netflix movies and shows to watch this week (August 1)

I’m in disbelief that we are in the month of August. The year has flown by and I’m unsure where the time went. But, like we do each and every week, we’re sharing all the new Netflix movies and shows debuting beginning the week of August 1, 2022.

The streaming giant doesn’t care if it’s a new day, week, or month. They are coming at us from all angles with brand new content. It’s impressive the amount of content they are pumping out regardless of what is happening behind the scenes.

New Netflix movies and shows to watch this week

• Clusterf**k: Woodstock ’99, August 2
• Super Giants Robot Brothers!, August 4
• Wedding Season, August 4
• Carter, August 5
• Rise of the Teenage Mutant Turtle: The Movie, August 5
• The Sandman, August 5

The week’s biggest release in The Sandman is based on the popular DC comic book from 1996, and the expectations are relatively high for the series. Series writer and executive producer David S. Goyer (Blade, The Dark Knight, Man of Steel) has been pitching this series for over a decade and his past track record is why fans (including me) have high hopes for the series.

The Sandman is set in 1916, where Morpheus, held captive for over 100 years, escapes and sets out to restore order to his kingdom. Tom Sturridge stars as Morpheus alongside Gwendoline Christie, Boyd Holbrook and more.

The other big release I am excited about is the return of our favorite Ninja Turtles with Rise of the Teenage Mutant Turtle: The Movie. I love the TMNT and, even in animated form, I’m ready to consume this film. Ben Schwartz, Omar Benson Miller, Brandon Mychal Smith and Josh Brener are voicing our favorite turtles.

From our suggestions, what will you be watching? Are you excited about the series The Sandman? Or will you be checking out the Ninja Turtle movie with me? Let us know, and let’s hope next week brings us more Netflix additions.
