As winter and with it the merry season finally arrives, a slew of new programming is also set to debut across various platforms.

Aside from the usual collection of feel-good Christmas movies, there are plenty thriller and dramas also set to debut.

Keira Knightley features in a new Netflix spy thriller, while Jude Law plays a mysterious individual in a new Star Wars spin-off on Disney+.

Veteran television stars Lisa Kudrow and Ray Romano will be seen in a new series on Netflix, while Lindsay Lohan and Ben Stiller return in two new Christmas-themed films.

‘Black Doves’: Netflix

‘Sikandar Ka Muqaddar’: Netflix

Following an unsolved diamond robbery, a tenacious cop’s pursuit of his key suspect turns into an obsession, until they finally face each other – years later – to confront the truth.

‘One-Hundred Years of Solitude’: Netflix

A classic retelling of Gabriel Garcia Márquez’s seminal work is set to make its way to the small screen next month.

The author had always refused to allow his 1967 novel, ‘One Hundred Years of Solitude’ – a masterwork of magical realism – to be made into a film. He believed that no movie could contain its extravagant narrative, following seven generations of the Buendía family in the fictional Colombian village of Macondo.

Garcia Márquez died in 2014, and his two sons agreed to this miniseries, on the premise that a long form would give the story space to do it justice, and on the condition that it be shot in Colombia in Spanish.

The series is set to debut on December 11.

New Garcia Marquez novel launched 10 years after his death

‘No Good Deed’: Netflix

Sitcom veterans Lisa Kudrow (‘Friends’) and Ray Romano (‘Everybody Loves Raymond’) star in this new real estate series.

Paul and Lydia Morgan are a cash-strapped, empty-nest couple who put their enviable 1920s-era house on the market. Frenzied potential buyers flock to Los Angeles to compete for it, but there’s a catch.

There is a creepy secret in the house’s past (we don’t immediately know what) that the sellers have to grapple with and the buyers would be lucky to find out.

‘No Good Deed’ premieres on December 12.

‘Our Little Secret’: Netflix’
