As September swings into action, Netflix UK is waving goodbye to a host of cherished titles - spanning from gripping dramas and uproarious comedies to Oscar-worthy blockbusters.

From the edge-of-your-seat escapes in Prison Break to the high-octane action of Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse, here's your comprehensive guide to the departures you won't want to miss:.

Prison Break

September 3

Few telly dramas had audiences glued to their screens in the mid-2000s quite like Prison Break. First broadcast on Fox in 2005, the series centred around structural engineer Michael Scofield, portrayed by Wentworth Miller, who intentionally gets himself incarcerated to spring his wrongly convicted brother Lincoln Burrows (Dominic Purcell) from death row, reports the Express.

The premise alone was enough to reel in millions, but what kept viewers hooked were the complex escape plans concealed in Michael's tattoos, the unyielding tension of each episode, and the chemistry between its two leads. Prison Break became a global sensation, bagging Golden Globe and Primetime Emmy nominations and amassing a loyal fanbase across five seasons and a TV revival in 2017.

With a supporting cast that included Sarah Wayne Callies, Amaury Nolasco and Robert Knepper as the unforgettable villain T-Bag, the series fused action, suspense and moral quandaries in a way that defined the TV landscape of its era.

Breeders (2022)

September 3

The British black comedy Breeders, created by Martin Freeman and Chris Addison, has been praised for its brutally honest portrayal of parenthood. The series, which stars Freeman and Daisy Haggard as a couple trying to balance their careers, children, and the chaos of domestic life, has been lauded for its sharp writing and unflinching realism.

Horror enthusiasts will need to act fast as both Sinister films are set to disappear early this month. The first film, directed by Scott Derrickson, is considered one of the most terrifying supernatural thrillers of the 2010s.

It features Ethan Hawke as a true-crime writer who stumbles upon horrifying home movies linked to a pagan deity known as Bughuul, with the film's grainy 8mm footage and escalating sense of dread making it a standout in the genre.

The original film was lauded by critics for its eerie atmosphere and disturbing imagery, even inspiring studies that dubbed it one of the "most terrifying films ever made" based on audience heart rates. Its sequel, Sinister 2, delved deeper into the mythology with new victims and a more in-depth exploration of Bughuul's curse.

Although it didn't receive as much critical acclaim, it still provided enough frights to satisfy fans eager for more of the story.

Scream VI (2023)

5 September

The Ghostface mask has been haunting audiences since the mid-90s, and Scream VI ushered the iconic slasher franchise into a new era. Moving the action from the quiet suburbs of Woodsboro to the bustling streets of New York City, this instalment followed the survivors of Scream V as they attempted to outrun their past, only to find themselves once again pursued by a masked murderer.

With Jenna Ortega and Melissa Barrera at the helm of the cast, alongside Courteney Cox reprising her long-standing role as Gale Weathers, the film struck a balance between brutal murders and the franchise's signature meta-humour. Critics commended it for breathing new life into the series with inventive set pieces, including tense scenes on a subway and in a high-rise flat.

Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse (2023)

7 September

Few animated films have achieved the cultural significance of Into the Spider-Verse - and its follow-up, Across the Spider-Verse, somehow managed to surpass even those lofty expectations.

Hitting screens in 2023, the sequel carried on Miles Morales' journey (with Shameik Moore returning to voice the character) as he grappled with his Spider-Man duties whilst venturing through an increasingly vast multiverse of web-slinging heroes.

Critics hailed the picture as both a visual and storytelling masterpiece, branding it a "game-changer for animation."

Its dazzling kaleidoscopic artwork morphed between different realities, delivering one of the most daring visual approaches ever attempted in a blockbuster production.

Featuring vocal performances from Hailee Steinfeld, Oscar Isaac, and Daniel Kaluuya, Across the Spider-Verse masterfully combined comedy, emotion and stunning visual spectacle.

Hell or High Water (2016)

September 10

Blending crime thriller elements with modern Western sensibilities, Hell or High Water emerged as one of 2016's most compelling offerings.

Under David Mackenzie's direction, the story tracked two siblings - portrayed by Chris Pine and Ben Foster - who turn to bank robbery in a desperate bid to rescue their family's ranch, whilst a veteran Texas Ranger (Jeff Bridges) pursues them relentlessly.

Critics praised the film for Taylor Sheridan's razor-sharp script, which delved into themes of economic hardship, justice, and the decline of the American dream.

Securing four Academy Award nominations, including Best Picture, Best Supporting Actor (Bridges) and Best Original Screenplay, it established itself as one of the decade's most acclaimed crime thrillers.

The Bling Ring (2013)

September 12

Sofia Coppola's The Bling Ring provided a glossy yet disturbing insight into the obsession with celebrity in the digital era. The film, based on true events, tracked a group of Los Angeles teens who burgled the homes of celebrities such as Paris Hilton and Orlando Bloom, nicking designer clothes and jewellery in their quest for fame and status.

Coppola, with her pastel colour scheme and aloof tone, spun a tale that was both satirical and eerie. Emma Watson took on one of her first significant roles after Harry Potter, astonishing viewers with her sharp depiction of a fame-obsessed teenager.

The film debuted at Cannes and received acclaim for its critique of materialism and celebrity culture.

Although it divided opinion upon release, it has since garnered a cult following due to its distinctive aesthetic and relevant themes.
