Daredevil: Born Again (Mar 4)
The original Daredevil series was a huge hit when it debuted on Netflix back in 2015.

Vincent D’Onofrio also reprises his role as the nefarious crime lord Kingpin, who is running for mayor of New York. The series has already been renewed for a second season.
Here’s everything arriving on Disney+ in March 2025.
Hulu
Alien (Mar 1)
After the crew of a deep space vessel discovers the wreckage of an alien spaceship, they soon find themselves being hunted by a vicious, cold-blooded creature. Directed by Ridley Scott, with designs inspired by H.R. Giger’s nightmarish artwork, Alien is a sci-fi/horror classic. The movie Tom Skerritt, John Hurt, Ian Holm, and of course, Sigourney Weaver as Ripley, one of sci-fi cinema’s most iconic female characters.
Aliens (Mar 1)
Ridley Scott’s original Alien was as much a horror movie as it was a sci-fi flick. But with Aliens, director James Cameron decided to throw in lots of action, as well. Set nearly 60 years after the original film, Aliens finds Ellen Ripley returning to the moon where the xenomorphs were first encountered in order to investigate why the human colony there has gone silent. Joining her are a colorful bunch of Colonial Marines, and they’ll need all of the firepower they can muster to deal with what awaits them.
High Fidelity (Mar 1)
John Cusack stars as a rumpled and cynical record store owner who decides to try and make sense of his failed relationships by seeking out his old partners. Based on Nick Hornby’s novel of the same name, High Fidelity is filled with music in-jokes, especially when Cusack spars with his employees, and specifically, Jack Black’s extremely annoying Barry Judd.
Jojo Rabbit (Mar 1)
Young Jojo is under a lot of stress. He wants to fit in with the rest of the Hitler Youth, but he’s too kind-hearted and is mercilessly mocked by his peers. The only one who believes in him is his imaginary friend: Adolf Hitler. But even that friendship gets tested when Jojo discovers that his mom is hiding a young Jewish girl. As you might guess, Jojo Rabbit is far from your typical World War II film, but what else would you expect from writer/director Taika Waititi?
