New on Netflix in April 2025, including Tom Hardy thriller you need on your radar

Netflix has an array of new titles arriving in April 2025, ranging from the return of Black Mirror, a new Tom Hardy film to the final season of a hit show.

Charlie Brooker’s dystopian anthology series continues on Netflix, 14 years after it started life on Channel 4, with six new episodes, including a sequel episode to series four space instalment “USS Callister”.

Other shows set to be on everyone’s lips include new Miami-set medical drama Pulse, adult animation Devil May Cry and the fifth and final season of You, starring Penn Badgley.

Film wise, Hardy heads up Havoc, a new action noir thriller from The Raid and Gangs of London director Gareth Evans, which follows a detective who fights his way through a criminal underworld while trying to rescue a politician’s estranged son.

But the most intriguing release comes from Shin Godzilla director Shinji Higuchi, whose new film Bullet Train Explosion essentially sounds like Speed on a train.

The thriller follows a Tokyo-bound bullet train that will explode if it slows below 100 kph, with authorities racing against time to save everyone on board.
