In the streaming era where audiences can easily access international entertainment, Thais continue to also embrace local stories. When we release a local title on Netflix, it goes to the top of the most-watched charts in Thailand. Thai Cave Rescue is there now, while Bangkok Breaking remained in the country’s Top 10 list for five weeks last year.
To give our members more of what they love, we’re today announcing six new Thai films and series helmed by top tier creators and featuring famous local stars. From broad comedy to twisty thrillers, this is our most diverse lineup of titles to date in Thailand. We kick off with The Lost Lotteries, a madcap heist movie by top production studio GMM Studios International on November 16.
When Netflix started in Thailand, we wanted to introduce content that went beyond what could be found on TV or in the cinema. Through Thai subtitles and dubbing, we’ve opened the door to a trove of films and series from around the world for our members, including highly popular K-dramas. And the original titles that we greenlit for Thailand have tended to be edgy and deal with less mainstream topics, such as corruption in Bangkok Breaking.
Here are the upcoming original Thai titles in Netflix:
