Netflix is growing up.

It's moving on from original series (like House of Cards and Orange is the New Black) to original films, and those films are coming very soon. Netflix has in fact just announced when the first wave will roll out to its streaming service. You can expect everything to kick off in October, with a movie starring Idris Elba.

The company also announced three other titles and their release dates, all of which we have detailed below, so you can decide now whether you'll be interested in streaming any of them directly from the comfort of your own home.
