You can expect a steady stream of major releases, from the return of popular series like 'House of the Dragon' this summer to the highly anticipated 'Harry Potter' series starting in late 2026. This planning may help you decide whether to maintain your subscription, as the service appears to be committing to a robust pipeline of original and returning content.
