House of Gucci
Ridley Scott's 2021 drama film House of Gucci will be leaving Netflix on Thursday, March 12. The film is absolutely loaded with A-list stars, including Lady Gaga, Adam Driver, Al Pacino, Jeremy Irons, Salma Hayek, Jared Leto, and more. House of Gucci received one Oscar nomination and is considered a fan-favorite with a Rotten Tomatoes audience score of 83%. House of Gucci is inspired by the true story of Patrizia Reggiani, played by Lady Gaga, an outsider who marries into the Gucci family, internationally known for their luxury fashion products. Set in Milan in 1978, House of Gucci chronicles Reggiani's relationship with Maurizio D'Ancora, which eventually unravels into a tale of betrayal, revenge, and violence.
The Hustle
The Hustle is an overlooked comedy from 2019 that will be leaving Netflix on Thursday, March 12. Starring Anne Hathaway, who is set to have a big 2026 with several exciting new movie releases, and Rebel Wilson, The Hustle is a buddy comedy and crime caper about two con women who seek revenge on the men who have wronged them in the past. The Hustle did not receive many positive reviews from critics, mainly because it was deemed an unnecessary reimagining of the 1988 comedy movie Dirty Rotten Scoundrels starring Steve Martin and Michael Caine. In fact, it is one of the worst-rated movies on Rotten Tomatoes in recent years, earning just a 13% RT score. If you are looking for your next pick for a "bad movie night," The Hustle is the perfect choice this week.
The Talented Mr. Ripley
Perhaps the best movie leaving Netflix this week is The Talented Mr. Ripley, starring Matt Damon, Jude Law, Gwyneth Paltrow, Cate Blanchett, Philip Seymour Hoffman, and more. The Talented Mr. Ripley was released in 1999 and adapted from the classic novel of the same name by Patricia Highsmith, which tells the dark tale of Tom Ripley, a magnificent and eerie con artist.
While there's certainly a case for Netflix's recent 2024 Ripley series being the best adaptation of the source material, The Talented Mr. Ripley is an all-time classic that blends psychological thriller with escapist drama. It earned 5 Oscar nominations, including Best Supporting Actor for Jude Law. Capturing a wonderful "trouble in paradise" feel, The Talented Mr. Ripley is one of those movies that everyone should see in their lifetime. Stream not before it leaves Netflix on Friday, March 13, 2026.
