Spring is in full swing, bringing another helping of (you guessed it) movies and TV shows that are new on Netflix this week, including the sequel to Zack Snyder's space opera "Rebel Moon."
"Rebel Moon — Part Two: The Scargiver" continues where the first movie left off, following Kora (Sofia Boutella) as she and her group of warriors defend their planet Veldt against the nefarious Motherworld.
There's also the return of "The Circle" with season 6, which finds another group of contestants moving into small, separate apartments and kept isolated from each other and the outside world, only left to communicate via text and social media.
Need more? Be sure to check out the complete day-by-day rundown of what's new on Netflix this week. There's plenty where this came from.
New on Netflix this week: Top picks
'Knocked Up'

'Jimmy Carr: Natural Born Killer'
Comedian Jimmy Carr returns with a raunchy Netflix special that insists on breaking the comedy "rules" that dictate what can and can't be talked about as he tackles cancel culture, consent, religion, gun control and more with biting sarcasm and Jimmy's signature attitude. This marks the first special Jimmy has directed, with markedly upgraded visuals and production value.

'The Circle' season 6
Catfishing on the internet is definitely a thing. "The Circle" may be the only reality show that encourages it. Season 6 brings an all new cast together to live in a series of small apartments isolated from the outside world. The only way each can communicate with the other is via text on special "social media" accounts, which means each contestant can present themselves any way they wish. This season has plenty of surprise twists, and an AI player named Max that should shake things up considerably.
