Netflix Philippines Unveils Massive 2026 Content Slate Featuring New Films by Local Stars

On February 8, Netflix Philippines also unveiled the agency’s boldest 2026 lineup, revealed during Art Fair Philippines 2026, including five originals (three series, two films) celebrating Pinoy talent such as Kathryn Bernardo, Anne Curtis, Dingdong Dantes, and Xyriel Manabat as the agency marks a decade milestone. Highlights include 18th Rose, a YA romance by Dolly Dulu starring Manabat and Kyle Echarri (April 9 premiere), Rae Red’s folklore horror Balaraw, and Erik Matti’s BuyBust: The Undesirables, gathering Curtis and Gerald Anderson back in dystopian action. Network collabs: GMA’s Master Cutter (Dantes as bounty hunting tailor, April 17) and ABS-CBN’s Someone, Someday, rom-com with Bernardo, James Reid, and Maja Salvador.
