You can watch the announcement trailer for the event, which features the
likes of Henry Cavill, Chris Hemsworth and Millie Bobby Brown, below.

Netflix says the three-hour virtual livestream event will begin at 9am PT / 12pm ET / 4pm GMT, and be broadcast across its YouTube channels, in addition to Twitter and Twitch.

Therell be special pre-shows spotlighting Korean, Indian and new anime properties, too, which are set to kick-off at 5am PT / 8am ET / 12pm GMT on specific Netflix channels.

Its worth noting that Netflix has already run a similar showcase event via
its Geeked episodes, though Tudum looks set to provide a more comprehensive look at its latest movies and TV shows, while also including a lot more
A-list talent.

Geeked episodes typically only include new looks at Netflixs TV properties, too, while Tudum will cover the streamers feature-length projects as well as its upcoming series. Its likely, then, that we may get our first proper look at movies including Red Notice and The Power of the Dog on September 25.

Theres also no word yet on whether Tudum will become a regular occurrence,
but amid the ongoing global pandemic, a big livestream reveal of this nature is most welcome.

Lets see how the first one goes, shall we? New movies: what to watch in theaters this year
