He's back. And this time, Joe Golberg, played by Penn Badgley, is in the UK. The fourth season will see the serial killer seek a new life in London as a college professor going by the name of Jonathan Moore.

Your Place or Mine

A new romantic comedy film starring Reese Witherspoon and Ashton Kutcher? Yes please! We cannot wait for this star-studded movie which sees the A-Listers play best friends and total opposites, Debbie and Peter. Debbie craves routine in LA, while Peter thrives on change in hectic NYC. They swap houses for a week and discover what they think they want might not be what they really need.
Will it be predictable? Possibly, yes. Will we still watch? Also, yes. Jesse Williams, Zoe Chao and Steve Zahn are supporting cast members.

In Love All Over Again
Available from 14 February
Netflix are releasing this rom-com on Valentine's Day so it’s the perfect watch on the day of love. In Love All Over Again tells the story of Irene who arrives in Madrid and wants to make it as a film director. "She will meet her best friends there as well as Julio, who would be the perfect lead role for her films and her life," the synopsis reads, "But life has other plans. A gleaming story with a dash of nostalgia about the love and friendship that blooms during collage years and the need to find your place in the world."
African Queens: Njinga
Available from 15 February
Jada Pinkett Smith is the executive producer and creator behind this upcoming documentary and we think it sounds amazing. The four-part series seeks to explore the lives of prominent and iconic African Queens.
"The first season will cover the life of Njinga, the complex, captivating, and fearless 17th century warrior queen of Ndongo and Matamba, in modern day Angola," reads the synopsis, "The nation's first female ruler, Njinga earned a reputation for her blend of political and diplomatic skill with military prowess and became an icon of resistance."
Outer Banks 3
Available from 23 February
Are you excited for Outer Banks season three? Fans are desperate to see what happens in the new series after the major cliffhanger at the end of season two. The official synopsis for series three reads: "After losing the gold and fleeing the Outer Banks, Season 3 finds the Pogues washed ashore on a desert island that, for a brief moment, seems like an idyllic home.
But things quickly go south for John B, Sarah, Kiara, Pope, JJ, and Cleo when they find themselves once again caught up in a race for the treasure, quite literally running for their lives."
We Have A Ghost
Available from 24 February
We love the sound of this new horror-comedy film and with Jennifer Coolidge and Stranger Things' actor David Harbour in the cast, it's bound to be brilliant. It follows Kevin who discovers a ghost named Ernest is haunting their new home and they quickly go viral on social media. But when things go south, they soon become the target of the CIA.
