Netflix has ordered Arrivals: A New Manifest Mystery, a Manifest universe spinoff following a new group of characters; created by Manifest creator Jeff Rake with writers Laura Putney and Margaret Easley, and executive produced with Robert Zemeckis and Jack Rapke for Compari/Valhalla, with Warner Bros. Television as the studio. Set in the same world as Manifest, Arrivals centers on a Denver plane crash where the arrivals, aided by a social worker and a Homeland Security agent, work to uncover a larger mystery and avert a humanity-ending catastrophe while discovering their connections to the original story.

Netflix’s three‑part Death Of The Pastor’s Wife investigates the 2024 death of Mica Miller and the months leading up to it, focusing on her marriage to pastor John-Paul Miller and his characterized pattern of control, infidelity, and cyberstalking. Through interviews with family and friends, the series argues that his domineering behavior and manipulative tactics contributed to the tragedy, while the filmmakers refrain from presenting support for his account and stop short of conclusively proving murder. It’s a harrowing, riveting look at power, faith, and abuse behind a church’s façade, now streaming on Netflix.
IndieWire’s review finds Netflix’s The Whisper Man a competent but largely familiar thriller anchored by Robert De Niro’s restrained, gravitas-filled performance as a retired cop drawn back into a cold case when his grandson goes missing; strong turns from Adam Scott and Michelle Monaghan help, but the plot relies on standard police-procedural tropes, making it more watchable than groundbreaking and earning a C+.
Netflix has ordered Arrivals: A New Manifest Mystery, a Manifest-universe spinoff from creator Jeff Rake and co-showrunners Margaret Easley and Laura Putney, with Warner Bros. TV as the studio. The series introduces a new cast and follows a mysterious Denver plane crash whose survivors recall nothing of who they are, as a young social worker and a novice Homeland Security agent partner to stop a humanity-ending catastrophe while remaining accessible to new viewers and expanding the Manifest universe.
Rockstar Games released a 26-minute Netflix 'extended look' at Grand Theft Auto 6, offering the first detailed glimpse of the open-world title: photorealistic graphics, richly detailed interiors and settings in the Leonida/Vice City–inspired world, and a Bonnie-and-Clyde-style story centered on Lucia Camino and Jason Duval. Players can switch control between the two characters and influence their relationship through choices; the map is described as significantly larger than GTA 5’s, with some sources claiming it’s twice as big. The game remains a single-player experience at launch on 19 November, with no new online features shown in the preview and online details still unconfirmed amid earlier leaks.
Robert De Niro anchors a brisk Netflix thriller, The Whisper Man, playing a grizzled Jersey detective drawn into a copycat serial-killer case that echoes a past case. Joined by Adam Scott as an anxious, grief-stricken crime writer and Michelle Monaghan as a determined detective, with Michael Keaton as the imprisoned killer Carter, the adaptation by James Ashcroft unfolds as a steady, procedural chiller rooted in father–son tension. It’s a diverting, well-acted night of chills that doesn’t reinvent the genre, but it delivers solid entertainment with a few stylish touches.
Slate’s Laura Miller decries Netflix’s The Whisper Man as a bungled, cliché-laden thriller that squanders its star cast (De Niro, Monaghan, Scott, Keaton) on coincidences, plot holes, and a pat supernatural twist, underscoring a misfire from a relatively inexperienced director.
