New on Netflix

Netflix’s highest-budgeted production Red Notice hits streaming on Nov. 11. The action-comedy — a triple threat starring Dwayne Johnson, Ryan Reynolds and Gal Gadot — is being savaged in early reviews that confirm the film’s early built-by-algorithm vibes. Much better received is Rebecca Hall’s directorial debut Passing (Nov. 10), based on a 1929 novel by Nella Larsen. Tessa Thompson and Ruth Negga star as two mixed-race friends, one of whom identifies as White while the other identifies as Black. Series-wise, you’ve got season five of Big Mouth (Nov. 5) available to stream as well as the third season of Narcos: Mexico (Nov 5). Starting Nov. 6, you can catch weekly episodes of Arcane, an animated show based on the videogame League of Legends with the voices of Hailee Steinfeld and Ella Purnell.

Kelsey Grammer stars as the titular character in Father Christmas Is Back (Nov. 7), a comedy that also stars Elizabeth Hurley and John Cleese. Also worth noting is that the first five season of Everybody Loves Raymond are streaming as of Nov. 10.

New on Amazon Prime Video

Benedict Cumberbatch stars as eccentric illustrator Louis Wain in The Electrical Life of Louis Wain, a quirky biopic that also stars Claire Foy. Wain is credited with making cats cute at a time where they were mostly used to control mice — some theorize that Wain’s illustrations made cats an acceptable pet. It premieres today alongside A Man Named Scott, a biographical documentary about musician Kid Cudi. Season 4 of Yellowstone premieres on Nov. 7, while Nov. 11 sees the release of Martin Shkreli doc Pharma Bro.
