May 2026: Latest LGBTQ+ Content on Netflix, Paramount+ and HBO Max

May is here, bringing with it a bouquet of lesbian and bisexual TV characters ready to grace our screens with hope and promise. And who doesn’t love a good gay storyline to brighten up the month, right? Let me walk you through some new releases hitting Netflix soon!

First up, we have “My Dearest Señorita,” a remake of a 1972 film by trans writer Alana S. Portero, starring Elisabeth Martínez as Adela. This touching story follows Adela’s journey from a conservative family to self-discovery with the help of some inspiring characters.

Next, get ready for a classic with a twist as “Fried Green Tomatoes” lands on Netflix. Follow the beautiful friendship between Idgie and Ruth in 1920s Alabama, based on the best-selling novel by Fannie Flagg.

For something a bit edgier, check out “Jennifer’s Body” starring Megan Fox and Amanda Seyfried, a campy film exploring themes of misandry, female empowerment, and revenge.

If you’re into time-travel adventures and dinosaurs, “La Brea” may pique your interest. A sinkhole opens up in L.A., sending survivors back in time to a dangerous land filled with prehistoric creatures.

Looking for some romance? “Soul Mate” follows a 10-year love story across three cities, while “Couple’s Therapy” dives into the lives of different couples seeking assistance from queer therapist Dr. Orna Guralnik.

And don’t miss out on comedy legend Wanda Sykes in “Legacy,” promising an hour of fearless and witty comedy. Plus, join the cast of “SkyMed” for daring rescue missions across Canada’s wilderness, featuring an array of queer characters.

Lastly, get ready for some animated fun with “Mating Season,” following the romantic escapades of a group of animals in the wild. And of course, don’t forget to solve mysteries with “A Good Girl’s Guide To Murder” and enjoy the laughter in “Four Seasons.”

May is shaping up to be quite a binge-worthy month, full of diverse and engaging content for all tastes. Which show are you most excited to watch? Let me know in the comments!
