What to watch on Netflix in June: From three returning fan-favourite series to a harrowing Grenfell documentary
June is here, which should mean pub gardens, bare legs and evenings spent sunbathing in the park. But this is Britain – so we're probably in for another few weeks of soggy barbecues and arguing about putting the heating back on. Thankfully, Netflix has a bumper crop of new, binge-worthy TV to see us through. From three fantastic returning series (Alexa, play Thunderstruck) to a thoughtful and touching feature-length documentary, here are the releases we'll be pressing play on this month. Ginny and Georgia Release date: 5th June This offbeat dramedy and two-time #1 watched show on Netflix returns for a third outing. Georgia has just been arrested for murder during her wedding, ruining her fairy tale ending and putting the spotlight on the Millers like never before. It's always been Ginny and Georgia against the world, but the world has never come for them quite like this. Now, Ginny needs to see where she stands when push comes to shove… Straw Release date: 6th June A single mother's world unravels in chaos as she struggles to care for her ill daughter. Pushed to the brink by a world that seems not to acknowledge her, she's forced to confront impossible choices given there's no help to be found. The A-list cast includes Sherri Shepherd and Teyana Taylor, with heavyweight director Tyler Perry also producing and writing. America's Sweethearts: Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders Release date: 18th June Emmy Award-winning director Greg Whiteley and the team behind Cheer return with this insightful look into the iconic Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders squad. Season 2 will follow the 2024-25 team, kicking off at auditions and training camp and continuing all the way through the NFL season, with plenty of drama (and cut-throat training) along the way. The Waterfront Release date: 19th June Inspired by true events, this new series dives into the lives of the flawed Buckley family, as they attempt to retain control of their crumbling fishing empire in North Carolina. As illness and treachery rock the family, will the next generation be able to cling to their lucrative business, and how far will they go to ensure they do so? Grenfell: Uncovered Release date: 20th June This feature-length documentary examines the disturbing errors and oversights that led to the Grenfell Tower fire in 2017. By uncovering actions taken by business and government years before the tragedy, the film highlights how the tragedy could have been prevented, and 72 lives could have been saved. There's testimony from survivors, bereaved family members and firefighters in this compelling and emotional watch. Squid Game Release date: 27th June The third and final season of Squid Game follows Gi-hun (Lee Jung-jae) after losing his best friend in the game and being driven to despair by The Front Man (Lee Byung-hun), who was hiding his true identity to infiltrate the game. Gi-hun persists with trying to end the murderous antics, while the Front Man continues imposing terrifying tasks, and the surviving players' choices lead to graver consequences with every round.

Taraji P. Henson Is A Mom On A Mission In Tyler Perry's ‘STRAW'
Taraji P. Henson steps into the role of a mom with a quest to provide for her daughter by any means necessary in her latest role. In the trailer for Tyler Perry's STRAW, released by Netflix on Wednesday (May 14), the actress takes the lead in the dramatic film. 'I didn't mean to do this, something inside of me broke,' exclaimed the actress in character as Janiya Wiltkinson in the dramatic trailer. 'I told them I need my money to get my daughter's medicine. She's sick. I just need to cash my check. That's all.' The clip continues to detail that the struggling mother and daughter faced eviction as the boiling conflict erupted. Alongside Henson, the film enlisted the talents of Sherri Shepherd, Teyana Taylor, Sinbad, Rockmond Dunbar, Ashley Versher, Mike Merrill, and Glynn Turman. Tyler Perry's STRAW was written and directed by the acclaimed filmmaker and produced by Perry, Tony L. Strickland, and Angi Bones. The official logline reads as follows: 'A single mother's world unravels in chaos as her day goes from bad to worse to catastrophic as she struggles to care for her ill daughter. Pushed to the brink by a world that seems indifferent to her existence, she's forced to confront impossible choices in a society that offers her no safety net.' The movie is set to debut on the streamer on June 6, 2025. Tyler Perry's STRAW is a part of a handful of projects from the 55-year-old set for Netflix due this year, including Madea's Destination Wedding and She The People. 'She's just trying to survive, just trying to be a great mother to her daughter, and then the circumstances in her life cause her to be in this situation,' Perry described of Henson's character, per Netflix. 'I think that a lot of people around the world, no matter if you're a Black woman or not, will be able to relate to that feeling of, 'I'm at my last straw.'

Similarly, @CallMeRenee_ said the series had her in a 'chokehold' while adding laughing faces. @LoudHummingbird similarly added: 'Watching #SheThePeople on Netflix. While the 'comedy' part struggles to show itself in the first couple of episodes, it eventually finds its footing, and Terri J. Vaughn is undeniably the crown jewel.' However, not all fans were equally as pleased with the execution of the show. @McDomalds wrote on X: 'She the People on Netflix is horrible. @NamirahChanel then said: 'So far… she the people is corny and stupid!' The series is so new that it's yet to earn a rating on review site Rotten Tomatoes, but it appears of its handful of initial reviews are a mixed bag. While critics argue it is 'quite entertaining', they remind readers that it is far from 'high art'. 'It isn't exactly high art, but Tyler Perry's She the People is at least deliberately funny instead of accidentally funny, and on that level, it is a lot easier to take seriously than his more ridiculous dramatic fare', writes Jonathan Wilson. 'She the People isn't the best, but considering Tyler Perry, it's quite entertaining', adds Archi Sengupta. The release of the series comes after a heartwarming comedy with a star-studded cast soared to the top of the Netflix charts, claiming more than 20million views in the last few days. Nonnas was released on the streaming platform on May 9, starring Vince Vaughn as New Yorker Joe Scaravella, who, grieving his mother's death, decides to open an Italian restaurant based on family recipes. More Trending He plugs all his money into building the eatery in Staten Island, hiring local grandmothers as the chefs. The feel-good flick is based on the true story of Enoteca Maria owner Joe Scarvella, with Susan Sarandon, Lorraine Bracco, Talia Shire, Linda Cardellini, Joe Manganiello and Drea de Matteo among the cast. Having garnered quite the fanbase since its release, it seems other newbies like She the People have tough competition. Watch She the People on Netflix. Got a story?
