Seth Rogen's Hilarity for Charity

As far as Netflix original content goes this month, there's quite a bit heading towards the eager faces of the platform's fans. With a new month comes a new episode of My Next Guest Needs No Introduction With David Letterman, and this one sees the late night legend sitting down with fellow legend Jay-Z in what promises to be a revealing talk. Other original offerings from Netflix that are set to debut this month include further episodes of shows like Money Heist and The Magic School Bus Rides Again, as well as the debut of shows such as The New Legends of The Monkey and The Boss Baby: Back To Business. Throw in a new Kevin James stand-up special, and you've got quite a bit of content to look forward to.

Of course, what would Netflix be without its original films, such as the Adam Sandler and Chris Rock wedding comedy The Week Of? Well, it certainly wouldn't be Netflix, as the subscription streaming company is just as big of a driver of original feature length films as it is of quality comedy. Films like Bad Boys, Cold Mountain, and Seven are proof of just how good their line-up is about to get in the next month. Not to mention the fact that solid family friendly choices like Speed Racer, The Iron Giant, and Despicable Me 3 are also going to be available, so make sure you have enough popcorn for your household's designated movie night.

Netflix is looking to make this April an entertaining success, whether it's raining or shining outside! Now keep in mind, the schedule above is still subject to change. So if you're looking forward to a certain title, keep an eye on your streaming queue to make sure it's arrived or not. And if you're curious to see the Netflix films you should have watched before they left this month, take a look at our rundown of the best departed titles that took their leave in March.
