The big one for Netflix this month is the much-anticipated The Last Kingdom movie, which follows last year’s fifth and final season.

Bringing back Alexander Dreymon as Uhtred for one last adventure, Seven Kings Must Die looks like it should be a pretty epic conclusion to the historical saga if the trailer is anything to go by.

We’re also looking forward to Transatlantic, Netflix’s seven-part adaptation of Julie Orringer’s novel The Flight Portfolio about the true story of the Emergency Rescue Committee.

The period drama series comes from the co-creator of the brilliant German series Deutschland 83.

Norwegian war drama War Sailor, based on true stories of Norwegian sailors and their families during and after World War II, also looks like it’ll be worth a watch.
