'Notting Hill' Is Coming Back To Netflix In October

Big news for those who love an OG rom-com. Notting Hill is officially dropping on Netflix again next month.

Yep, the 1999 Richard Curtis classic is back on the streaming platform, and it's the wholesome content we need in our lives right now.

Starring Julia Roberts, Hugh Grant, Rhys Ifans, Emma Chambers, Tim McInnerny, Gina McKee, and Hugh Bonneville, the movie chronicles the romance between London book seller William Thacker (played by Hugh) and a famous American actress Anna Scott (played by Julia).

After meeting by complete chance over spilled orange juice, Will and Anna hit it off, and end up sharing a kiss.

That kiss soon leads to a romance, when Anna turns up at his doorstep again after a fight with her boyfriend.

But how will Will cope when the world finds out about their affair?

Notting Hill joins the streaming platform in October - although we don't have a specific date, yet.

It was removed from Netflix last September, after having been available for six months.

And it's safe to say that some fans were a little devastated that it was no longer there to binge.

Netflix announced its return in a tweet earlier this week, alongside other popular classics, such as Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason (2004) The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants (2005) Forgetting Sarah Marshall (2008) Kick-Ass 2 (2013) Super 8 (2011).

"Notting Hill is coming to Netflix this October... my day just got a lot better," one person wrote after reading the announcement.

While another penned: "Notting hill coming to netflix in October just saved me".

In time for Halloween, movies including The Addams Family (1991), Addams Family Values (1993), Friday the 13th (2009), Paranormal Activity 2/3/4/Ghost Dimension, The Conjuring (2013) and The Purge: Anarchy (2014) are also dropping imminently.

Plus, we can expect hits like The Da Vinci Code (2006), Apollo 13 (1995), Problem Child (1990), Dr. Seuss' (2018) and The Grinch (2018) to land.

See the full list here.

We'll have to keep our eyes peeled for exactly when the films land, but at least we know there isn't long!
