Netflix in 2025 is basically a wild jungle of genres, serving everything from rom-coms to gritty dramas for every age group. While some shows become overnight obsessions and others disappear into the content abyss, thrillers are undeniably stealing the spotlight. Real-life crime stories like Adolescence are still going strong, and now The Beast in Me is ready to join the party. With its dark twists and pulse-pounding plot, this new thriller is all set to grace the Netflix platform.

The Beast in Me is clawing its way onto Netflix—this limited series blends chilling mystery with raw emotion, and it is the kind of thriller that bites back.

Produced by 20th Television and masterminded by Gabe Rotter, The Beast in Me has been years in the making. Rotter penned the script a solid 6–7 years before cameras started rolling. Netflix dropped the bombshell that the series will roar onto the platform in 2025, but the episode count is still a mystery.

What we do know: each episode will clock in at around 60 minutes. Filming wrapped in January 2025, after months of shooting in New Jersey and Raleigh, North Carolina.
