Netflix's new May offerings are (drumroll, please)...

Carly Mallenbaum   | Paste BN

It's almost May, which means it's time for Netflix to say goodbye to a few titles, and announce fresh offerings for the month. Here are a few new highlights:

Grace & Frankie







Jane Fonda and Lily Tomlin co­-star in the new Netflix original series about two women who start bonding ... after their husbands leave them for each other. Available May 8.

Legally Blonde




Elle Woods (Reese Witherspoon) gets into Harvard Law to impress her ex. "What, like it's hard?" The sequel also is available May 1.

Jimi: All Is by My Side




André 3000 as Jimi Hendrix? Yes! Film critic Claudia Puig gave it 3 stars last year. Available May 1.

Zombeavers




Like hybrid movie name Sharknado, but a mix of zombies and beavers, instead. Also, John Mayer cameos. Available May 19.

Inglourious Basterds




Sure, Quentin Tarantino's tale of Jews getting revenge on Nazis isn't based on a true story, but it's AWESOME! SO AWESOME! Available May 22.

The Boxtrolls




This stop-motion animation in this story about a boy raised by box-wearing trolls is incredible. Available May 23.

Jen Kirkman: I'm Gonna Die Alone (And I Feel Fine)




We love the comedian on Drunk History, so we have a feeling we'll enjoy this, too.
