We’ve already told you about all the exciting new titles coming to Netflix this month, but with that good news also comes bad: Some beloved projects are leaving the service throughout the month. You never know when something might pop up on streaming again (or which of the many services it’ll go to next), so the next few weeks could be your last opportunity for a while to check out some of these fantastic movies and television series.
We’ve got your comprehensive guide to everything that’s dropping off Netflix’s collection this month, including a few highlights that we definitely recommend seeing before they’re gone.
Must-Watch Movies and Shows Leaving Netflix in October 2025
The Blues Brothers (Leaving 10/1/25)
After being released from prison, Jake (John Belushi) reunites with his brother, Elwood (Dan Aykroyd). Jake and Elwood then go “on a mission from God” to save the orphanage they grew up in from closing, by raising funds to pay back taxes. The two are convinced they can earn the cash by getting their old band back together — but their goal isn’t as simple as it seems.
Dazed and Confused (Leaving 10/1/25)
This Richard Linklater classic coming-of-age film follows the mayhem of group of rowdy, suburban teens in Austin, Texas, celebrating the last day of high school in 1976.
Empire Records (Leaving 10/23/25)
Joe (Anthony LaPaglia) runs Empire Records, an independent record store that employs a close group of young music enthusiasts. Hearing that the shop may be sold, employee Lucas (Rory Cochrane) secretly bets some of the store’s money, hoping to win big.
