The Top Movies on Netflix Right Now (June 2026)

As of the week of June 20, 2026, the new Netflix Original thriller Maternal Instinct sits at No. 1 on the US movie chart, having just knocked the Jennifer Lopez rom-com Office Romance off the top. Below is a rundown of the movies dominating Netflix right now, what each one is about, and how to pick based on your mood. Netflix’s charts refresh daily, so positions shift, but these are the titles drawing the biggest audiences this week.

What is the No. 1 movie on Netflix right now?

The top film right now is Maternal Instinct, a Netflix Original thriller that climbed to No. 1 this week and pushed last week’s champion, Office Romance, down to No. 2. It’s the latest example of a pattern Netflix loves: a freshly released Original racing to the top of the chart within days of landing.

The gap at the top is real — Maternal Instinct opened with a commanding lead over the rest of the field, while a wave of older catalog titles fills out the chart behind the two new Originals.

What other movies are topping Netflix this week?

Beyond the top two, the current Top 10 is a mix of new Originals and nostalgic catalog hits. The standouts, with their chart positions where confirmed:

• Office Romance (No. 2) — a starry workplace rom-com with Jennifer Lopez as an airline CEO and Brett Goldstein (of Ted Lasso) as a new company lawyer. He co-wrote it with Lopez in mind, and a tropical business trip tests the company’s no-dating rule.
• Percy Jackson & the Olympians: The Lightning Thief (No. 5) — the 2010 fantasy with Logan Lerman as a teenage demigod sent to recover Zeus’s stolen lightning bolt. A nostalgia binge that’s back in a big way.
• Flowers in the Attic (No. 6) — a campy, melodramatic 2014 gothic thriller, with four siblings hidden away in a mansion attic by their grandmother. Heather Graham and Ellen Burstyn star.
• Percy Jackson: Sea of Monsters (No. 9) — the 2013 sequel, riding the first film’s renewed popularity right back onto the chart.

Also drawing strong numbers this week are Fast Charlie, a lean revenge thriller starring Pierce Brosnan as an aging fixer (and featuring James Caan’s final role); the George Clooney and Julia Roberts rom-com Ticket to Paradise; and, improbably, the 2007 animated comedy Bee Movie, which keeps refusing to leave the chart.

Why is everyone watching 2010s movies on Netflix?

One of the more interesting stories in this week’s chart isn’t a new release at all — it’s the resurgence of older catalog films. Both Percy Jackson movies are in the Top 10 at once, and Bee Movie has shown bizarre staying power. This is Netflix’s catalog strategy working as intended: when a familiar franchise lands, viewers binge the whole thing, and nostalgia does the rest.

It’s a useful reminder that “top movies on Netflix” rarely means “newest.” A decade-old fantasy adventure can out-stream a glossy new release simply because millions of people already know they like it.

Which Netflix movie should you watch this weekend?

It depends on the night you’re after. Here’s the current Top 10 sorted by mood:

The bottom line

Right now, Netflix’s movie chart is led by two new Originals — the thriller Maternal Instinct at No. 1 and the rom-com Office Romance at No. 2 — with a strong undercurrent of 2010s nostalgia from the Percy Jackson films and Bee Movie. Whether you want tension, romance, or a familiar rewatch, this week’s Top 10 has a clear pick for it. Just remember the chart moves daily, so the order may look a little different by the time you open the app.
