Netflix Geeked Week 2022: New shows and movie release dates

Geeked Week is a one-stop-shop for anything geek-related on Netflix. Last year's event was a smash hit with fans, giving them the chance to discover more about their favorite stars, shows, and films. Each day of the virtual event, which will be in June, will be dedicated to a different topic.

On June 6, we'll learn more about Netflix's upcoming programs, including the Resident Evil reboot and the Japanese blockbuster Alice in Borderland. On Tuesday, June 7, Netflix will disclose surprises for movie fans on its streaming platform. Red Notice sequels are likely to be announced.

Wednesday, June 8, is dedicated solely to animation. We can expect some delicious announcements, given how Netflix has increased its anime slate. We might get a sneak glimpse at Season 2 of Arcane if we're lucky. Stranger Things Day is on Thursday, June 9. The show is so important to fans that it gets its day dedicated to Hawkins residents and Upside Down monsters.

Finally, for the first time, Netflix will reveal its exclusive games on Friday, June 10. Last year, the company began offering video games to members at no additional charge.
