Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT A new Emily Blunt and Chris Evans movie reveals how Netflix has been obsessing over one topic for almost six years. It is evident that, in recent years, Netflix has adopted more of a data-driven strategy towards producing new shows and movies and renewing old ones.
