Netflix has just unveiled its upcoming movie releases for the summer, and let's just say there's a whole lot to look forward to as the weather gets warmer.

From action-thrillers to rom-coms, there are so many new movies that'll make you want to crank up that air conditioning, stay in and host a big movie night.

To begin with, Mother is all set to hit your screens very soon. This action movie stars none other than Jennifer Lopez in the titular role, she's a former assassin who has to come out of hiding when her daughter lands in trouble. If you can't wait to see J-Lo in action, the movie will hit Netflix this week, on May 12.

It's not the only action movie you have to look forward to. Come June 16, Extraction 2 will be released. So, if you were a fan of the first movie, where Chris Hemsworth attempts to save the son of an imprisoned crime lord — get ready for round two. This time around, the black ops mercenary is tasked with breaking the family of a Georgian gangster out of prison.

If you're in the mood for something spookier, Bird Box Barcelona will be out on July 14. Set in a world where being blindfolded offers the best chance of survival against a mysterious force, this is bound to be a nail-biter. As the name suggests, it's set in Barcelona this time around, where a few survivors gang together to try and escape the city.
