Meanwhile, cinephiles will look forward to Noah Baumbach's Netflix original film "Jay Kelly" arriving on Dec. 5. The George Clooney-Adam Sandler starring dramedy debuted at the Venice International Film Festival in August and has garnered awards buzz along its festival and limited theatrical runs. Concurring with the film's Netflix release is "The Making of Jay Kelly" dropping the same day and "My Next Guest with David Letterman and Adam Sandler" arriving on Dec. 1.
The most highly anticipated title arriving this December, however, is undoubtedly "Stranger Things 5," which releases its second volume on Christmas Day and then its finale on New Year's Eve. The conclusion to the phenomenon began with the first four episodes releasing on Nov. 23 as Volume 1. The finale will be feature-length and also play in theaters.
