On September 25, Netflix had its first global fan event Tudum (referring to the intro logo sound of the streaming giant in every production of theirs). In the event, Netflix surprised everyone when they dropped footage and made announcements for almost every upcoming show and movie.
The three-hour event was trending worldwide because of the number of teaser trailers and exclusive clips released. Netflix also brought in stars and creators of certain shows to make exciting announcements. This included renewal news of popular shows like Sex Education and The Witcher and the information of a sequel to Enola Holmes starring Millie Bobby Brown.
Netflix announced over 70 series in the global event, including content catered to specific regions like India (for which the streaming studio announced 11 projects).
