HOLLYWOOD, CA — October brings one of Netflix's most varied lineups of the year, blending prestige literary adaptations, high-profile thrillers, returning fan favorites and notable film additions.

The month begins with "East of Eden" on Oct. 1, Zoe Kazan's ambitious adaptation of John Steinbeck's classic starring Florence Pugh, Christopher Abbott and Mike Faist. A week later, Ben Affleck and Kerry Washington headline the political thriller "Animals," while Josh Hartnett leads the supernatural limited series "Below." Later in the month, Chris Evans and Anya Taylor-Joy star in the satirical action-thriller "Sacrifice."
