If you are wondering what Tudum means, it is named after the sound you hear when a Netflix show or movie begins. Over the years, that sound has become a pop culture signal that something binge-worthy is about to start. Tudum as an event has become Netflix’s way of gathering its biggest stars in one place to connect directly with its audience, giving fans around the world early access to what is coming next.
The previous ones gave us surprise renewals, early footage from upcoming seasons, and live performances from stars. This year looks even more stacked. Aside from long-awaited updates on returning favorites, there will be new titles debuting their trailers and a few unannounced surprises Netflix is keeping quiet for now.
So if you have been waiting for news on when your favorite show is returning, or curious about what is next for Netflix in this year, this is something you should tune into.
If you’re still not that convinced, watch the event trailer below:
