26 movies are leaving Netflix in June – put these 5 on your watch list

Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire is leaving Netflix.

In addition to adding dozens of movies and shows to its streaming library every month, Netflix also removes content as licenses expire. Some months have more departures than others, but it's always worth keeping track of what is leaving Netflix in the days ahead so you can prioritize the shows or movies you want to watch before they vanish.

June is a rough month for subscribers who use the streaming service to catch up on blockbuster movies. Not only is the streamer losing Christopher Nolan's Batman trilogy, but Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire and Migration are on the way out as well.

There's not much we could say about Christopher Nolan's The Dark Knight that hasn't been said before, but now is a perfect time to rewatch the best DC movie to date. James Gunn is preparing to launch his new DC cinematic universe with Superman this July, and if he can come anywhere close to matching this masterpiece, we'll be thrilled.

Gran Turismo: Based on a True Story (June 11)

This biographical sports drama takes its name from the popular PlayStation racing game series, but it's actually based on a true story (as its title suggests) about a teenage gamer who became a professional race car driver. The cast includes David Harbour, Orlando Bloom, Darren Barnet, Geri Halliwell Horner, and Djimon Hounsou.

Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire (June 14)

Not many cinematic universes have found success outside of the MCU, but Legendary Pictures' Monsterverse has been surprisingly resilient. Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire is the sequel to 2021's Godzilla vs. Kong and sees the iconic monsters team up to stop the ape-like Skar King and reptilian Shimo from taking over the planet.

Won’t You Be My Neighbor? (June 16)

This 2018 documentary directed by Morgan Neville examines the life and legacy of Fred Rogers, host of the popular children's show Mister Rogers' Neighborhood. During its theatrical run, it became the highest-grossing biographical documentary of all-time.

Migration (June 19)

Movie, Illumination returned to theaters with an original animated adventure comedy called Migration, written by Mike White (yes, of The White Lotus fame).
