Summer officially arrives in June, and most of us will be spending a lot less time indoors. But there’s always the inevitable rainy weekend or two, or an air-conditioned respite from those early hot days of the season — and Netflix Canada hopes to give you a few reasons to spend time inside in front of your screens.

Some of Hollywood blockbusters are coming to Netflix in June: the Academy Award winning The Disaster Artist (June 1), the Academy Award nominated (and snubbed) Lady Bird (June 3), Marvel Studio’s Thor: Ragnarok (June 5), and the fan-divisive Star Wars: The Last Jedi (June 26).

Returning Netflix original series include the finale of Sense8 (June 8), season six of Voltron: Legendary Defender (June 15), season two of Marvel’s Luke Cage (June 22), and the second season of GLOW (June 29). There’s also the season two of Nailed It! (June 29), a reality bake-off competition show inspired by Pinterest baking fails that features amateur bakers with poor track records.

If you enjoy binging true-crime documentaries, you’ll want to check out The Staircase (June 8), which documents the trial of American crime novelist Michael Peterson, who was convicted of murdering his wife Kathleen in 2003. Originally released as a 10-episode French television miniseries in 2004, the Netflix version includes three new episodes covering what’s happened since then.
