Netflix has a knack for keeping audiences glued to their screens with its latest releases, and 2025 is already shaping up to be no exception. One show, in particular, has captured the spotlight, the name being, Pact of Silence.

With a strong Rotten Tomatoes rating of 71%, the series has sparked a wave of excitement, leaving fans eager for a second season.

A Story of Survival and Revenge

At the heart of this gripping Mexican drama is Brenda Rey, portrayed by Camila Valero. Her journey is one of resilience and transformation after getting abandoned at birth and left to fend for herself on the streets of Mexico.

She rises to fame as a social media influencer against all odds but beneath the glitz and glamour, a thirst for vengeance fuels her every move. The show, directed by Carlos Villegas Rosales and penned by José Vicente Spataro,...

One of Netflix's top shows at the moment is the Mexican drama series The Accident. Many people are calling it one of the saddest shows they've ever watched, which given the plot, makes sense. It's a 10-part series revolving around the aftermath of a children's birthday party gone wrong. When a gush of wind sweeps up a bouncy house filled with kids at a birthday party, it causes the death of three children. This tragic accident changes the lives of a close-knit community forever.

Klych López and Gracia Querejeta directed the episodes for the show from scripts written by Leonardo Padrón. You might recognize some of the cast from previous projects, such as Alberto Guerra, who is best known for starring as Darío Sepúlveda in the Netflix crime drama series Griselda.

Leave The World Behind was the most viewed feature film on Netflix over the second half of 2023, according to the streamer’s second biannual viewing report.

The Sam Esmail thriller with Julia Roberts generated 121m views over the period, becoming Netflix’s fifth most popular movie of all time. Gal Gadot crime thriller Heart Of Stone was the second most popular feature in the time frame, with 109.6m views, followed by animated family film Leo, Spanish-language thriller Nowhere (86.2m) and action comedy The Out-Laws (83.8m).

Netflix published its first biannual report late last year, taking a step towards greater data transparency.

Dystopian thriller “Leave the World Behind” was the most-watched film — and title overall — on Netflix globally in the second half of 2023, while anime-inspired live action series “One Piece” led on the TV side among individual series seasons.

The data comes from Netflix’s second edition of “What We Watched: A Netflix Engagement Report,” reflecting viewership on the streamer from July-December 2023 covering 99% of all viewing on Netflix. Subscribers across the world watched about 90 billion hours of Netflix in the second half of 2023, compared with 93 billion hours in the first half of the year.

Netflix released its first big data dump, covering the first half of 2023, last December. In the second report, released Thursday, the company has added runtime and views (total hours viewed divided by runtime) and separated films and TV series, syncing it up with its weekly Top 10 and Most Popular lists.

Exclusive: Artists First has signed Latin-American superstar Rodolfo Salas for representation across all areas.

Salas is a Venezualan born actor and model. He has become one of the central faces of Netflix’s Latin American expansion, as he most recently starred in the platform’s hit series Fake Profile which follows a woman who creates a sexy profile on the online dating app Spice looking for the man of her dreams. Her dreams quickly turn into nightmares, and Camila ends up falling into a web of sex, lies, and deception. The show is headed into production on its second season in Colombia.

Prior to Fake Profile, he lead the Mexican limited series Pact of Silence for Netflix. Next, he will star in the Lifetime original movie Padres, which is set to premiere in 2024. Salas was also a mainstay of Telemundo after emigrating to the United States in 2014. He starred in their series La Fan,...

The run-up to Halloween proved to be a good time to release a new version of Goosebumps.

The series based on R.L. Stine’s beloved books broke into the top 10 overall for the week of Oct. 16-22. The show, which streams on both Disney+ and Hulu, racked up 594 million minutes of viewing for its second week of release, marking a rare non-Marvel or Star Wars original series entry for Disney+ in Nielsen’s rankings (being available on two platforms helped, as well).

Nielsen, incidentally, classified Goosebumps as an acquired show the previous week, apparently because of it being shared across the two platforms, before switching it to the originals column going forward.

The Fall of the House of Usher kept the No. 1 overall spot for the second straight week, growing by 19 percent over its opening to 1.47 billion minutes of viewing. Suits remained strong, recording its 18th straight week above a...

Netflix’s The Fall of the House of Usher stayed put atop Nielsen’s U.S. ranking of streaming originals (for the week of Oct. 16), with 1.47 billion minutes viewed — +19% from last week’s chart debut — across eight episodes.

Nielsen notes that nearly two-thirds of Usher‘s viewing is coming from 18-49 year olds.

Netflix’s Bodies made its chart debut at a distant No.

For only the second time since mid-June, Suits is not the No. 1 title in Nielsen’s streaming rankings.

That honor belongs to Netflix’s The Fall of the House of Usher, which snagged the top spot for the week of Oct. 9-15. Writer-director Mike Flanagan’s spin on the titular Edgar Allan Poe story (and several others by the author) drew 1.23 billion minutes of viewing, edging out the 1.13 billion for Suits.

The latter series continued its months-long run above the billion-minute mark, however, and has now compiled almost 44.4 billion minutes (about 739.8 million hours) of viewing on Netflix and Peacock since it first hit the rankings in June. Nielsen notes that viewing of Suits’ ninth and final season, which is only available on Peacock, accounted for 6 percent of the weekly tally (about 67.6 million minutes) — the highest percentage for those episodes since the other eight seasons debuted on Netflix.

French action comedy “Wingwomen” took home the title of most-watched Netflix program of the week with 18.5 million views, beating out the buzzy wartime limited series “All the Light We Cannot See.”

Limited series “Till Murder Do Us Part: Soering vs. Haysom” similarly debuted as the second most-watched English series this week with 4.7 million views, before U.K. mystery series “Bodies” took third place on the list and Morgan Freeman-narrated nature series “Life on Our Planet” took fourth place with 4.3 million views. Whereas Mike Flanagan’s “The Fall of the House of Usher” and docuseries “Beckham” dominated the list in October, the series came in seventh and ninth place with 2.8 million views and 2.7 million views,...
