What’s Coming to Netflix in December 2022, Including ‘Glass Onion,’ ‘The Witcher: Blood Origin,’ ‘Matilda the Musical’

Following a weeklong “sneak preview” theatrical release in November, “Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery” will stream on Netflix on Dec. 23. The seafaring sequel to the surprise 2019 whodunnit hit sees star Daniel Craig return as Southern gentleman detective Benoit Blanc.

For this mystery, Blanc finds himself at a lavish private estate on a Greek island, but how and why he comes to be there is only the first of many puzzles. Blanc soon meets a distinctly disparate group of friends gathering at the invitation of billionaire Miles Bron (Edward Norton) for their yearly reunion. As in all the best murder mysteries, each person harbors their own secrets, lies, and motivations. And when someone turns up dead, everyone is a suspect. The cast also includes Janelle Monae, Kate Hudson, Leslie Odom Jr., Kathryn Hahn, Dave Bautista, and more.

Watch the trailer for “Glass Onion: Knives Out Mystery”:

“The Witcher: Blood Origin,” a prequel to the hit fantasy series, starring Michelle Yeoh, will begin streaming on Netflix on Dec. 25. Set 1,200 years before “The Witcher,” the new series chronicles the creation of the First Witcher and the circumstances that gave rise to the Conjunction of the Spheres. The series stars Laurence O’Fuarain, Sophia Brown, Michelle Yeoh, and others.

Check out a preview of “The Witcher: Blood Origin”:

“Roald Dahl’s Matilda the Musical,” a new big-screen adaptation of the hit stage musical comes to the streamer on Christmas Day following a cinematic release in November. The story of a clever young girl with telekinetic powers (Alisha Weir) and the nasty headmistress Miss Thrunchbull (Emma Thompson) has been seen on screen before, but never like this. The film features music and lyrics from talented multi-hyphenate Tim Minchin.
