Shows To Look Out For This July!!

Happy New Month, folks!

July brings with it a pinch of cold and a host of shows to keep you warm at home. Scroll on for July’s ultimate Netflix & Chill list:

1. 1. Those About to Die

Dive into the world of sun, sand and sword with this epic drama. Set in Ancient Rome, Those About to Die explores the dark side of the arena and the intoxicating world of gladiatorial competition.

You probably think you’re done watching any Rome-inspired shows, but I’ll be quick to remind you that you haven’t seen the legendary Anthony Hopkins as Emperor Vespasian.

2. Gladiator II

ICYMI: The Roman Empire is about to be your Roman Empire this July. Serving as a sequel to the Best-Picture award-winning Gladiator film, this instalment follows the story of Lucius Verus II, son of Lucilla and nephew of Emperor Commodus.

This star-studded ensemble boasts the likes of Denzel Washington (who plays Macrinus, an evil arms dealer), Paul Mescal, Pedro Pascal, Connie Nielsen, Joseph Quinn and Djimon Hounsou, among others.

3. A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder

Holly Jackson’s debut novel was an immediate hit- and with good reason. Who doesn’t love cozying up to a good mystery thriller where young teens fight crime, solve mysteries and save the world (hello, PLL)?

Follow Pippa “Pip” Fitz-Amobi as she unravels the murder of popular high schooler Andie Bell by her boyfriend, Sal Singh. Emma Myers, who plays Wednesday’s cheery BFF Enid Sinclair in Tim Burton’s Wednesday, leads the cast.

4. Beverly Hills COP: Axel F

Three decades after Beverly Hills COP: III, Eddie Murphy returns as Foley in Beverly Hills: Axel F. Once again, the quick-witted Detroit policeman finds himself in Los Angeles as he helps his estranged daughter, Jane.

It’s a fun reunion as he runs into old friends, including Billy Rosewood, Jeffrey Friedman, John Taggart and Serge.

5. House of The Dragon

While HOTD saison deux premiered on 16^th June, episodes drop weekly every Sunday. Episode 4, which promises a particularly… hot encounter between The Rogue Prince and Aemond One-Eye, drops on 7^th July.

With episode three showing Daemon having omens and seeing apparitions at Harrenhal, is it time for fans to bid him adieu?

6. Cobra Kai VI

Part 1 of Cobra Kai’s final season drops on 18^th July. The finale is divided into 3 parts, with five parts dropping in July, with the rest dropping in November and sometime next year.

Cobra Kai, a sequel series to the original four films in The Karate Kid Franchise, follows characters Daniel LaRusso and Johnny Lawrence 3 decades after the first film.

7. Lobola Man

Last but certainly not least, Lobola Man follows Ace Ngubeni, a silver-tongued bride price (lobola) negotiator who takes on a new project for a shy client, Duke. All is well until Ace meets the bride in question. Will the price be too high?

Brought to you by the very same creators of the successful How to Ruin franchise, Lobola Man promises to be a masterful blend of romance, drama, comedy and culture.
