We can't wait for these to arrive
As one year draws to a close and other starts, it's a great chance to look ahead at what to expect in 2020, so we asked our friends at Netflix what we should be looking out for in the coming months.
First up is their brand news series Messiah, which is released on 1st January 2020. The provocative, suspenseful geo-political thriller is sure to be a hit, starring Michelle Monaghan, created by Michael Petroni (The Book Thief), and directed by James McTeigue (V for Vendetta) and Kate Woods (Rectify).
Looking further ahead there's also a bit of reality TV being added to the streaming service in early 2020 with Next In Fashion. This is a high-stakes competition series featuring some of the world's best and quietly innovative designers, who compete for a chance to become the next big name in fashion.
The series is hosted by fashion designer and TV personality Tan France and designer, model and global style icon Alexa Chung.
