When the first volume of Stranger Things Season 4 premiered on Friday, May 27, 2022, I was convinced that it would continue reign supreme on the Netflix Top 10 by the time Vol. 2 premiered. Well, as it turned out, its place on the Top 10 TV Shows in the U.S. would be usurped by the Season 3 premiere of The Umbrella Academy, but I had a good feeling the nostalgic sci-fi hit would reclaim its spot the day of its highly anticipated return, which is today – Friday, July 1, 2022. Was I right and what are the Top 10 Movies trending on Netflix(opens in new tab) today, too? Let’s go running up this hill, shall we?
We have actually seen very little seismic activity in the last few days on Netflix Top 10 Movies in the U.S. and today is really no exception with the first eight spots appearing identical to yesterday. Sing 2 is still dancing to the top above action-comedy The Man from Toronto, horrifying Stephen King adaptation The Mist, Sylvester Stallone-led cop drama Backtrace, three back-to-back new Netflix original movies (Hustle, Love & Gelato, and Spiderhead), and another King movie in the form of 2017’s It. However, we have two newcomers in ninth and tenth place: the Lena Waithe-penned music drama Beauty — starring Grace Marie Bradley in the title role and Giancarlo Esposito as her father — and Blasted, a Norwegian comedy about a bachelor party interrupted by an alien invasion.
