A monthly look at what's scheduled to be added to the catalogues of streaming services Netflix Canada and CraveTV:
TOP PICKS
A film that many thought was overlooked at this year's Oscars is among the highlights hitting Netflix this month. "The Florida Project," based on the lives of a number of residents at a budget motel just outside Disney World, did earn Willem Dafoe best actor nominations at the Academy Awards and Golden Globes, but many critics thought it should've also been in the running for best picture. It begins streaming on April 6. And on April 13, a remake of the 1960s sci-fi series "Lost in Space" premieres with Canadian "House of Cards" actress Molly Parker among the leads.
All three seasons of the critically acclaimed HBO series "The Leftovers" are available on CraveTV starting April 20. The series follows cult members in the years after the "Sudden Departure," an unexplained disappearance of 140 million people off the face of the Earth. And the fourth season of Amazon's well-reviewed police drama "Bosch" starts streaming on April 14.
Here are the lists of movies and TV shows expected in April. Release dates are subject to change.
