‘Billionaires’ Bunker’ (2025– )

The team behind the hit series ‘Money Heist’-Álex Pina and Esther Martínez Lobato-is back with a new Spanish thriller premiering on September 19, 2025. The series follows a group of extremely wealthy families who retreat to a high-tech underground shelter as global tensions rise. Inside the shelter, dubbed ‘Kimera Underground Park,’ a long-standing rivalry between two powerful families flares up again.

‘Haunted Hotel’ (2025– )

Premiering on Friday, September 19, 2025, this new animated comedy centers around a single mother who unexpectedly inherits a rundown inn. She soon finds out the inn is haunted by the friendly ghost of her brother and is full of guests who seem to live there permanently. The show stars Will Forte, Eliza Coupe, Skyler Gisondo, Natalie Palamides, and Jimmi Simpson.

Matt Roller created the series and also serves as its showrunner and an executive producer. He’s joined by Chris McKenna, Dan Harmon, and Steve Levy in the executive producer role, with Erica Hayes directing the animation. The show is produced by Netflix Animation and Titmouse, and is set in a hotel called “Undervale,” promising a comedic and scary experience.

‘She Said Maybe’ (2025)

I’m so excited for this new movie coming out on Friday, September 19, 2025! It’s a German-Turkish rom-com about a woman named Mavi, who grew up in Hamburg, and suddenly finds out she’s part of a really rich Turkish family. It sounds like things get complicated quickly as she tries to figure out her new family and a totally changed love life, jumping back and forth between Germany and Istanbul. The cast looks amazing too – Beritan Balcı, Serkan Çayoğlu, and Sinan Güleç are starring, and there are a bunch of other great actors like Meral Perin and Cansu Tosun involved as well!

Buket Alakuş and Ngo The Chau directed the film, based on a script by Ipek Zübert. CB Medya and its collaborators produced it. Recent announcements and industry reports have confirmed the actors and crew involved, and that the film will be released in late September.

Tell us which of these you’ll press play on first—and why—in the comments.
