Netflix releases a new hit with a star-studded cast almost every week. The latest production that platform users can watch is "A Family Affair" with Nicole Kidman, Joey King, and Zac Efron. Just around the corner is the premiere of "Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F," with Eddie Murphy returning to his iconic role. Currently, "Trigger Warning" with Jessica Alba is causing a stir—her film has so far recorded 24 million views. It still has a long way to go to reach number one on Netflix's biggest hits list. What were the most-watched by viewers on this platform?
Netflix's biggest hits
Netflix presented 20 of its biggest hits, including 10 English-language and 10 non-English-language films. The first list is topped by the critically panned "Red Notice," where Gal Gadot played the lead role. Gadot is sometimes portrayed as the most dangerous art thief in this rather absurd story. She was being hunted by FBI profiler John Hartley, played by Dwayne Johnson, who was working with another thief—Nolan Booth, played by Ryan Reynolds. "Red Notice" has 230.9 million views. Viewers spent 454.2 million hours watching the film.
