What's Coming And Going From Netflix Canada In December 2020

If you thought November’s haul of Christmas movies  was enough, you’re wrong. Netflix ’s December offerings include a fresh catalogue, including a brand-new combination of the words “Christmas” and “Prince” in a movie title.

Some other highlight from the next month: Chadwick Boseman’s final film appearance in “Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom,” Shonda Rhimes’ period drama “Bridgerton,” new seasons of “Big Mouth” and “The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina,” a David Fincher-directed movie about “Citizen Kate” screenwriter Herman J. Mankiewicz, and “The Midnight Sun,” directed by George Clooney.
