Fan favourite franchises on Netflix such as Austin Powers, Resident Evil, Kindergarten Cop, and Chappelle's Show will all leave the service in July.

All three of the Austin Powers films will no longer be available for fan viewing on the platform.

This includes the likes of Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery (1997) and Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me (1999).

Viewers would also be sure to miss Beyonce's sophomore acting performance in Austin Powers In Gold Member (2002).

Both the Bad Boys films will also be chopped from the site, which includes both the 1995 original and the sequel Bad Boys II.

The second instalment was made in 2003 and also starred Will Smith and Martin Lawrence who reprised their roles of Detective Lieutenant Michael Eugene 'Mike' Lowrey and Marcus Miles Burnet respectively.

The 1990 comedy classic Kindergarden Cop starring Arnold Schwarzenegger has also been axed as well as How To Lose A Guy In 10 Days (2003) which starred the likes of Kate Hudson and Matthew McConaughey.

The Hangover which starred Bradley Cooper, Ed Helms and Zach Galifianakis will also disappear from viewers feeds.

In another blow to stand-up comedian Dave Chapelle, the first two series of his sketch show Chapelle's Show are set to also be removed from the platform.

This comes as new data suggests that subscribers rose in the first days after the giant cracked down on password sharing.

According to research by the firm - which has tracked data since 2019 - the online platform reportedly had the four largest days of US user acquisition on record.

These also exceeded the spikes brought on by the initial lockdown during the pandemic as people were forced to stay at home.
