Florence Pugh leads the long-awaited adaptation of The Midnight Library, reuniting with director Garth Davis after East of Eden. The film, based on Matt Haig’s bestseller, arrives after six years in development.

October brings Florence Pugh's East of Eden to Netflix, a legal drama from Sienna Miller and Dominic West to HBO Max, and Paul Bettany's VisionQuest closing out Disney+'s WandaVision trilogy, alongside dozens of catalogue titles across all three platforms.
Netflix drops its seven-episode take on John Steinbeck's East of Eden on October 1, with Florence Pugh as Cathy Ames and Zoe Kazan writing the show her grandfather once adapted for the big screen.
