Netflix’s Upcoming Adult Animation Slate

Netflix has become a go-to destination for animation with over half its members watching animation every month (from Preschool to Anime, tentpole films to adult comedy or horror).And it's definitely not just for kids: animation is a medium that can be the canvas to tell ANY story, including very adult ones. Netflix unveiled today a fresh look at its upcoming adult animation slate spanning across film, anime, action, thrillers and comedy series. The sneak peek includes the exclusive first look at Genndy Tartakovsky’s director’s cut for the howl-arious adult animated film Fixed, along with new images from the highly anticipated new and returning series, Long Story Short, Haunted Hotel, Tom Clancy’s Splinter Cell: Deathwatch, and SAKAMOTO DAYS. 

Over the past 10 years, Netflix has brought many ground breaking adult animated shows and massive hits to global audiences, truly impacting the culture including BoJack Horseman, Arcane, Big Mouth, Love Death + Robots, Devil May Cry, Cyberpunk: Edgerunners and Blue Eye Samurai– just to name a few. Arcane season 2 and Love, Death + Robots volume 4 were both just nominated for 2 Primetime Emmy Awards for Outstanding Animated Program and Outstanding Sound Editing for an Animated Program and Maya Rudolph is now the most nominated woman in the Outstanding Character Voice-Over Performance category with a total of 6 nominations for Big Mouth (2020, 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024, 2025).
