Top 10 Movies and Shows on Netflix UK – June 2026
Here’s a breakdown of what’s trending and worth your time right now on Netflix UK.
1. Office Romance (2026)
Jennifer Lopez plays Jackie Cruz, the CEO of an airline with a firm anti-fraternisation policy. When the company brings in a new lawyer, Daniel Blanchflower – played by Brett Goldstein – the two spark an undeniable attraction. A tropical business trip makes it very hard to resist. Released on 5 June, the film clocked 40.1 million hours watched and 20.9 million views in its first week alone. It’s big, breezy, and exactly what summer needs.
Genre: Romantic Comedy | Rating: 15

2. The Witness (2026)
This one is heavy. It’s based on the real murder of Rachel Nickell on Wimbledon Common in 1992 – a case that shocked the country at the time and still does. What makes the show different is that it doesn’t just retell the crime. It follows what happened to her little boy, who was two years old and right there when it happened, and her partner, and how that one day broke everything for them. Three episodes. 13.2 million people watched it in the first week. That says enough.
Genre: True-Crime Drama | Rating: 18

3. Michael Jackson: The Verdict (2026)
Love him or not, you’re probably going to watch this. The docuseries goes back into MJ’s criminal trial, and it had 17.8 million views in its first week – the most-watched show on Netflix that whole week. People are still fascinated, still divided, still can’t look away. It’s uncomfortable in places, but that’s kind of the point. Put it on and see where you land.
Genre: Documentary | Rating: 15

4. Sweet Magnolias – Season 5 (2026)
Maddie, Helen, and Dana Sue set their sights on New York City in this fifth season of Netflix’s beloved feel-good drama. It arrived on 11 June and has already found its loyal audience right back in the top 10. If you’ve not started this series yet, now is a genuinely good time to binge.
Genre: Drama, Romance | Rating: PG

5. I Will Find You (2026)
This is the first US-set adaptation of a Harlan Coben novel for Netflix, starring Sam Worthington. Coben’s previous Netflix adaptations – made in the UK, France, Poland and Spain – have gripped audiences around the world. This one finally brings his twisty thriller style home to American soil, and it does not disappoint.
Genre: Thriller, Mystery | Rating: 15

6. Creed Trilogy (2015–2023)
If you’ve never sat down and watched the Rocky and Creed films back to back, this weekend is your chance. Netflix just dropped the whole lot – starting from the original Rocky right through to Creed III, which Michael B. Jordan directed himself and honestly knocked it out of the park. Clear your Saturday. Make some food. You won’t regret it.
Genre: Action, Sports Drama | Rating: 12A–15

7. Voicemails for Isabelle (2026)
Zoey Deutch leads this film as Jill, a San Francisco chef who leaves voice messages for her late sister. That phone number has since been reassigned to Wes, an Austin real estate agent who can’t stop listening to her confessions. It’s inventive, warm, and one of the more quietly brilliant romantic films of the year.
Genre: Romantic Drama | Rating: 12

8. Little Brother (2026)
John Cena and Eric Andre star in what promises to be a chaotic buddy comedy. It’s landing on 26 June, and the early noise around it is very good. Pure Friday-night entertainment – don’t overthink it.
Genre: Comedy | Rating: 15

9. Avatar: The Last Airbender – Season 2 (2026)
Season 1 was a bit of a mixed bag, let’s be honest. Some people loved it; plenty didn’t. But Season 2 drops on 25 June, and the word going around is that it’s actually much better – deeper into the Earth Kingdom, better pacing, more of what fans actually wanted. Give it another shot before writing it off completely.
Genre: Action, Adventure, Fantasy | Rating: PG

10. War Machine
Alan Ritchson is having a moment, and this film is proof of why. He plays a combat engineer going through the US Army Ranger programme – brutal training, high stakes – and then something very wrong shows up and turns the whole thing into a survival nightmare. It’s been quietly climbing the charts all week, and most people haven’t even heard of it yet. That’s your sign to watch it before everyone else catches on.
Genre: Action, Sci-Fi | Rating: 15
