As Bajaria said, "With more than 700 million people watching, we can't just be one thing. We need to be the best version of everything" from TV series and films to games. Sharing highlights from the upcoming slate, she predicted that 2025 could be Netflix's biggest year ever.

Synopsis: Kieran Elliott's life changed forever when three people died in the seaside town of Evelyn Bay. Fifteen years later, Kieran and his young family return home and are confronted by the past when another young woman is killed. Desperate for answers, the Evelyn Bay community are forced to uncover the mysteries that continue to haunt them.

Produced by: The award-winning team at Tony Ayres Productions (Fires, Clickbait, Stateless), which is backed by Matchbox Pictures and Universal International Studios, a division of Universal Studio Group.

Principal photography was based on traditional land of the muwinina people in Nipaluna/Hobart, Lutruwita/Tasmania, with additional production and post-production also taking place on the traditional land of the Wurundjeri and Bunurong people (Melbourne, Victoria).

Tony Ayres is the showrunner, executive producer and writer.

SON OF A DONKEY *New sneak peek video from Theo & Nathan Saidden*

Theo and Nathan Saidden will bring back their iconic Superwog characters for a new standalone series, Son of a Donkey. The Saidden's will write, direct, produce and star in the series also produced by Princess Pictures for Netflix.

In the six-episode standalone series Son of a Donkey, we meet Theo just as he moves out of his home to claim his independence - until he's faced with the harsh realities of adulthood. From driving fines and daddy issues to internet scams and a lot of therapy, Theo and his best friend Johnny get up to their usual antics as they come to terms with what's most important: family.

Production took place on location in Melbourne. The series is supported by VicScreen through the Victorian Screen Incentive (VSI).

APPLE CIDER VINEGAR *New clip*

Set at the birth of Instagram, Apple Cider Vinegar follows two young women who set out to cure their life-threatening illnesses through health and wellness, influencing their global online communities along the way. All of which would be incredibly inspiring if it were all true. This is a true-ish story based on a lie, about the rise and fall of a wellness empire; the culture that built it up and the people who tore it down.

The limited series was created by Samantha Strauss, directed by Jeffrey Walker and Executive Produced by See-Saw Films, Picking Scabs and Kaitlyn Dever.

Cast: Kaitlyn Dever (Dopesick, Unbelievable), Alycia Debnam-Carey (The Lost Flowers of Alice Hart, Fear the Walking Dead) Aisha Dee (The Bold Type, Safe Home), Tilda Cobham-Hervey (The Lost Flowers of Alice Hart, I Am Woman), Ashley Zukerman (Succession), Mark Coles Smith (Mystery Road: Origin), Susie Porter (Irreverent, Wentworth), Matt Nable (Transfusion, Last King of the Cross), Phoenix Raei (The Night Agent), Chai Hansen (Night Sky, The New Legends of Monkey), Rick Davies (Offspring), Kieran Darcy-Smith (Mr Inbetween), Catherine McClements (Total Control) and Essie Davis (One Day, The Babadook).

The limited series was shot on-location in Melbourne, Australia with support from VicScreen through their Victorian Production Fund and will premiere globally on Netflix in 2025. Post Production took place in NSW with support through Screen NSW and their PDV Fund.

The series will premiere 6 February on Netflix
