The Wind Rises is now available to stream on Netflix

It’s the calm before the storm on Netflix Canada this week with the arrival of 26 new movies & tv series. Still, there’s a little something for everyone to tie you over the weekend. Here’s what’s new and popular on Netflix Canada this week for August 28th, 2020.

First of all, here are the past week’s top highlights on Netflix Canada:


The Wind Rises (2013)

Director: Hayao Miyazaki
Genre: Anime, Biography, Drama | Runtime: 126 Minutes
English Dub Cast: Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Emily Blunt, John Krasinski, Martin Short, Werner Herzog

Anime industry legend Hayao Miyazaki was meant to retire with The Wind Rises, and it would have been more than a worthy send-off for the veteran anime creator.

Jiro Horikoshi always dreamed of becoming a pilot, but thanks to his nearsightedness he can’t follow his dream. One night, as Jiro dreams of flying, he is met by the famous Italian aeronautical engineer Giovanni Battista Caproni that it is better to build planes than fly them. Taken by these words, Jiro makes it his life mission to become an engineer and to design planes for the Japanese Empire.

The legacy of the Karate Kid continues with the astounding Cobra Kai series! Featuring many old returning faces to the beloved 80s Martial Art franchise, there is plenty to love for old and new fans.

Fired from his job, a dead beat father, and a heavy drinker, life has not been good to Johnny Lawrence the past 30 years. Upon rescuing an asthmatic kid from a gang of bullies, Johnny reopens the Cobra Kai karate dojo, and becomes the new sensei to outsiders and bullied children. When long time, and successful karate rival, Daniel LaRusso, discover that Cobra Kai has reopened, it reignites the feud between them.
