Every month, Netflix reveals what is new to its service for the upcoming month, and there are plenty of new offerings to get excited about. However, plenty of movies and TV series leave the service each month as well. And in April, Netflix loses its best animated series, Star Wars: The Clone Wars.

On April 7, the Star Wars: The Clones Wars movie, all five seasons of the animated series, and the home release of The Lost Missions all leave Netflix. While many folks look down on the Star Wars prequels, everyone can agree that the Clone Wars animated movie and series are the best things to come out of that era in Star Wars lore. For those who are unfamiliar, the series follows Anakin Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi during the aforementioned Clone Wars, taking place between Attack of the Clones and Revenge of the Sith. While the show is leaving Netflix, it is headed to Disney’s streaming service, alongside new episodes, by the end of this year.

And there are plenty of new options for you to check out in April–after you’ve watch Clone Wars one more time. On April 1, Netflix is dropping plenty of movies, including Freddy vs. Jason, Pineapple Express, and the classic sci-fi movie The Fifth Element. Additionally, the classic Japanese character Ultraman gets a Netflix original animated series.

There are two big original series to keep your eye on for the rest of the month. On April 5, Sabrina the teenage witch returns for Part 2 of Chilling Adventures of Sabrina. This time around, she’ll be exploring her darker side, all while trying to keep her non-witch friends in her life.

Additionally, much like Black Mirror’s Bandersnatch, Netflix has a new “choose your own adventure” show coming on April 10. The show is called You vs. Wild, and it is hosted by TV personality Bear Grylls. The viewer watches Grylls try to survive in some of the world’s harshest environments, and their decisions could help him. If there isn’t an option at some point for Grylls to ingest his own urine, then this show missed the boat.

Below you’ll find the complete list of everything coming and going for Netflix in April, and make sure to check out the lists for Amazon Prime Video and Hulu as well.

The first trailer for Toy Story 4 is here. The latest movie in the long-running animated Pixar series hits theaters in June and sees Woody, Buzz, and the gang in another highly anticipated adventure. A few amusing early teasers were released in December, but this new trailer finally gives us an idea of what to expect from the new movie.

It reveals that the new character of Forky that was teased last year–literally a fork with pipe-cleaner arms–will be one of the main characters. He’s the favorite toy of Woody and co’s new owner Bonnie, but he’s less than pleased about being turned into a plaything. Forky goes on the run with Woody in tow, and the pair end up encountering another old friend–Bo Beep. Meanwhile, the rest of the gang set off to get their pals back. It looks every bit as funny, exciting, moving, and spectacularly animated as the previous movies in this classic series. Check it out above.

Toy Story 4 sees all the main cast return, including Tom Hanks (as Woody), Tim Allen (Buzz), Annie Potts (Bo Peep), Joan Cusack (Jessie), Blake Clark (Slinky Dog), Wallace Shawn (Rex), and John Ratzenberger (Hamm), plus Arrested Development’s Tony Hale as Forky. It hits theaters on June 21, 2019.

The movie is directed by Josh Cooley, who previously co-wrote Inside Out for Pixar, and Jonas Rivera. It was originally announced back in 2014 with a 2017 release date, but delays caused the film to switch release slots with The Incredibles 2. In addition, former Disney Animation head John Lasseter was set to direct, but sexual harassment allegations against him resulted in him stepping away and ultimately leaving the company.

In a recent interview, Hanks spoke about what fans can expect from the movie. “Toy Story 4 is going to have an impactful ending,” he revealed. “The way you record Toy Story; you’re in a room with the team that has created it. When I went in for my last day of recording, I wanted to have my back to them, because usually you’re facing them so you can look right up and you can talk about it. But I didn’t want to see them and I wanted to pretend they couldn’t see me. When I realized what they were going for, I realized, ‘Oh, this is a moment in history.'”

You know what’s good? A nice freebie. Luckily, you can get a pretty cool freebie today if you’re a Spotify Premium for Family subscriber in the UK.

If you are, you can claim a free Google Home Mini. The offer works for both new subscribers and existing ones, but only until stocks last, so be quick. Also note that standard Spotify Premium members do not qualify for the deal–you must be a Premium for Family subscriber, which is an extra £5 per month and allows you to add up to five family members onto your plan. Claim your device here.

Spotify ran this promotion in the US last year, but has now decided to bring it to the UK. Google Home Mini launched in 2018 as Google’s answer to Amazon’s Echo Dot. They typically sell for £49 at retail, so getting one at no extra cost with a monthly £15 Spotify Premium for Family subscription is not too shabby.

GameSpot sister site Cnet said Google’s miniature device “stands tall as one of the best affordable smart speakers out there, along with the Amazon Echo Dot, but it doesn’t do enough to supplant the Dot at the top of the list.” Read more in Cnet’s 8.4/10 Google Home Mini review.

The upcoming Black Widow movie starring Scarlett Johansson continues to add to its cast. Sources told Variety that Florence Pugh, who will be seen next in the eerie Pagan horror movie Midsommar, is joining Scarlett Johansson in the Black Widow film.

Pugh will play the second lead in Black Widow alongside Johansson, though it’s unknown who she’s playing. According to Variety’s sources, Marvel considered “several candidates” for the role before deciding on Pugh after her won praise for her part in “Fighting With My Family.”

It’s still early days for the Black Widow film. It’s unknown currently if it’s an origin story for the character or how it’ll factor into whatever happens in Avengers: Endgame. That film is believed to be the final entry in MCU Phase 3, so Black Widow would take place in Phase 4 at the earliest.

Australian director Cate Shortland (Somersault, Lore) is directing the Black Widow movie that’s based on a script by Jac Schaeffer (Timer, The Hustle). Johansson is reportedly being paid $15 million to star in the Black Widow film.

Despite all of the news about the Black Widow film, Marvel has yet to officially announce it.

Black Widow the character will be seen next in April’s Avengers: Endgame, with Johansson returning as one of the surviving members of the Avengers.

Avengers: Infinity War ended in dramatic fashion. The evil Thanos snapped his fingers and half the entire galaxy’s population–including many beloved superheroes–perished. Writer Stephen McFeely said in a new interview that “the snap” wasn’t always part of the movie.

Instead, McFeely told Empire that the writers considered waiting until the second act of Avengers: Endgame for Thanos to cut the world’s population in half.

“We had so much story in those early drafts of Infinity War that, if anything, we thought we maybe shouldn’t do ‘the snap’ until the end of act one of Endgame,” he said.

Marvel boss Kevin Feige is also quoted in the story, saying that the writing and creative teams spent “years” considering the best way to tell the story of Infinity War and the overarching narrative. It was ultimately decided that Infinity War would end with “the snap,” and this was truly a dramatic way to end the film.

“We talked about that ending for years and years and years,” he explained. “It was the reason to adapt Infinity Gauntlet. What was the most shocking thing we could do? End the movie with ‘the snap.'”

While the ending to Infinity War was unquestionably dramatic, many fans believe “the snap” may be undone in Endgame, given that many of the characters who perished have future movies in the pipeline. According to writer Christopher Markus, the deaths from Infinity War are “real,” at least in some fashion.

“It is a different movie than you think it is,” Markus said about Endgame. “We broke your heart. Now we’re going to blow your mind.”

Endgame is Marvel’s next movie, and it’s set to release in late-April around the world. It follows Captain Marvel, the Brie Larson-starring film that broke box office records. Endgame wraps up 10-plus years worth of storytelling, and it’s expected to be the final film in Marvel’s Phase 3 of its cinematic universe. You can see the latest Endgame trailer embedded above.
