Sep 26, 2015 03:34 AM EDT

Netflix and Hulu will bring a slew of new movies and popular TV shows this coming October 2015. Additionally, Netflix is adding two original features to its fall lineup. Meanwhile, Hulu will see the return of a number of fan favorites.

New on Netflix

The third and final season of Hemlock Grove will air on Netflix on October 23. It was originally supposed to release in September, but the premiere date was pushed back instead. Taking place in a fictional town in Pennsylvania, the series revolves around strange supernatural events.


Another original Netflix feature to look out for is the film Beasts of No Nation, which tells the story of child soldier fighting in a civil war in West Africa. Based on the 2005 novel of the same name, the film won the Marcello Mastoianni Award at the 72nd Venice Film Festival. It was also shown in the Special Presentation segment of the 2015 Toronto International Film Festival.


Meanwhile, viewers can look forward to more familiar mainstream shows such as Homeland Season 4 (Oct. 12), Arrow Season 3 (Oct. 7) and American Horror Story Season 4 (October 6).

Also, Netflix subscribers will get the opportunity to see newly released Hollywood titles including The Martian (Oct. 2) and Bridge of Spies (Oct. 16).

New on Hulu

Many shows and movies that were originally on Netflix will soon be going over to Hulu. This happened after Netflix ended its deal with Epix.

Films that will migrate from Netflix to Hulu include World War Z, Star Trek Into Darkness, Transformers: Age of Extinction and Hunger Games: Catching Fire. These movies will remain on Netflix until the end of September 2015. Of important note, all Showtime shows require a separate paid subscription in order to be viewed on Hulu.
