HBO and Max have unexpectedly added a very large selection of classic movies in April. That’s going to appeal primarily to the film buffs in your life. There are a handful of recent indie flicks coming as well, including the Nicole Kidman erotic thriller Babygirl and the sci-fi comedy Y2K, which imagines what would have happened if the Y2K bug had been as serious as everyone feared it would be.

The Last of Us season 2 and Hacks season 4 are also giving HBO and Max’s original programming a strong shot in the arm for the month. But don’t sleep on The Rehearsal season 2 or Adult Swim’s new anime sensation, Lazarus. For younger viewers, Gremlins: The Wild Batch is returning with a new batch of episodes from Season 2B.

Everything leaving Hulu in April 2025
Rebecca Hall in Resurrection.

There have been months where Hulu has barely shed anything at all, but April takes the cake. Only nine movies are leaving Hulu across the entire month of April. And if you're a subscriber, that's great news. Ideally, streamers should hang on to their content as long as possible, especially one like Hulu that has access to all of 20th Century Fox's films.

We can't honestly say that many of Hulu's April departures will even be noticed by casual viewers. But if we have to pick one departing Hulu movie to recommend for April, it's Resurrection, a 2022 low-budget thriller starring Iron Man 3's Rebecca Hall.

What’s new on Netflix and what’s leaving in April 2025
The cast of You.

Netflix is all about you in April. Or more specifically, You season 5, which will wrap up the series. This is one of the most successful Netflix shows that started off somewhere else before becoming a true hit on Netflix. Lifetime canceled its exploration of Joe Goldberg (Penn Badgley), a psychopath who develops obsessive relationships with women. But once You reached Netflix, female fans in particular loved Joe despite everything he did.
Black Mirror is also returning for its seventh season this month, and the sci-fi anthology series has once again attracted established stars for its one-off stories. For movie lovers, a handful of classics, including Field of Dreams, The Breakfast Club, Heat, and The Addams Family, are back on Netflix as well.
To help you make your viewing plans for the month, we've put together a complete roundup of what's new on Netflix in April 2025 and everything that's leaving at the end of the month. Our picks for the month are in bold.

If you're looking for some additional guidance on what to watch, we also have lists of the best movies on Netflix and the best shows on Netflix. If Netflix isn't your only streaming service, we also have helpful articles on the best new movies to stream, the best new shows to stream, the best movies on Amazon Prime and the best TV shows on Amazon Prime, as well as plenty of guides for Hulu, Disney+, and HBO Max.

Seasons change, and so do the movies and TV shows on Netflix. It's an inevitable part of life in the streaming age. This month also serves as a reminder that Sony gave Netflix an 18-month window for many of its newer films, including No Hard Feelings. But as of April, that film's first window of availability is coming to a close. Next stop: Hulu.
Most of the really great movies left Netflix on April 1, but there's still time to catch A Quiet Place Part II, Hereditary, Scream, and more of your potential favorite films before they exit the streamer. All you need to do is check our guide to everything leaving Netflix in April and make your viewing plans accordingly.
