2025 to mark Netflix's strongest content lineup since launching originals: Ted Sarandos
Netflix will offer its strongest programming lineup in 2025 since it began producing original content, said co-CEO Theodore A. Sarandos, calling the coming year «an embarrassment of riches» for the world’s largest streaming platform, which boasts 283 million paid subscribers.
Speaking at the UBS Global TMT Conference on December 10, Sarandos shared insights into Netflix’s ambitious plans for the remainder of 2024 and for 2025.
He highlighted the return of Squid Game for its second season as a great way to end 2024. The groundbreaking series, which became a global phenomenon, will be released strategically after NFL football on Christmas Day, marking Netflix’s first-ever foray into airing football content.
«In 2025, we will have an embarrassment of riches. I mean, it's probably the strongest slate of programming we've had since we started doing original programming,» he said, adding that, unlike prior years impacted by COVID and the Hollywood writers' strikes, 2025 will be free of such interruptions, allowing Netflix to showcase its most robust offerings.
Netflix's content lineup includes Squid Game (with another season in 2025 following the 2024 release), Stranger Things, with its fifth season set to build on the success of its predecessor, which even ranked as a top-five show in Japan; Wednesday, a global sensation; as well as returning seasons of shows like Ginny & Georgia, Emily in Paris, and 2023’s breakout hit, The Night Agent.
