𓆉Netflix won't be slowing down on producing new TV shows or movies any time soon. According to current projections, the company believes it'll spend somewhere in the region𒀰 of $18 billion on its various endeavors in 2025 alone.
Spencer Neumann, Netflix's CFO, threw the figure out during a conversati♈on at the 2025 Morg🌞an Stanley Tech, Media & Telecom Conference. "We're not anywhere near a ceiling," he said, per , adding: "I think we are still just getting started."
That figure marks an 11% increase on 2024, where the streaming service spent $16.2 billion across the board on developing and releasing projects. As obscene as these numbers are, they’re not su🙈rprising when you look at the talent the platform attracts.
This month alone Netflix is putting out The Electric State, the new movie from the Russo brothers starring Millie Bobby Brown a♛nd Chris Pratt. Two of the three films Joe and Anthony Russo have directed since Avengers: Endgame have been handled by the streaming service, with The Gray Man, which commanded Netflix's largest budget up to that point at $200 million, preceding this latest fe🍸ature.
Then you have the Extraction duology featuring Chris Hemsworth and 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Zack Snyder’s Rebel Moon and Army of the Dead franchises. Wednesday, Bridgerton, Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F; the list goes on and on. These are big names and properties with sizable price tags, and aꦇlthough there are plenty of misses, the company has a penchant for picking hits and defining the zeitgeist.
Virgin River, Baby Reindeer, Stranger Things, and dozens more jus෴tify themselves incredibly easily. This is all without looking at the documentaries, K-drama or anime sides, where Netflix has proven quite savvy indeed. Speaking on the service's curation, Neumann puts the formula down to "a little art and a little science," stating that the internal predictions are usually pretty close to reality.
Comments like these can leave a bitter taste in the mouth in light of the amount of 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:cancelled TV shows which lay at Netflix’s feet. The Recruit was 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:suddenly cut after two seasons mere days ago, despite holding its own on t🐷he platform’s charts. What counts as worthwhile seems slig𝔉htly inscrutable.
Expect more of the same in the coming years, too. "We want to stay in growth mode 🐠versus maintenance mode as long as possible," Neumann comments.
There's plenty more in the pipeline once 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Wednesday season 2, 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Stranger Things season 5, and 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Squid Game season 3 arrive, then.
