The first volume of the final season is releasing this month, but it isn't the only big release on Netflix's calendar. Also coming up are new seasons of Squid Game: The Challenge and A Man on the Inside, as well as star-studded limited series Death by Lightning.

Meanwhile, film fans can look forward to the arrival of Guillermo Del Toro's Frankenstein, following on from its limited theatrical release, plus the start of the festive season, as three of Netflix's new original Christmas movies, A Merry Little Ex-Mas, Champagne Problems and Jingle Bell Heist, are on the schedule.
