Netflix has released some new first-look images for upcoming comedy Blockbuster, while also revealing when the series will drop.
Starring Ant-Man and the Wasp and WandaVision's Randall Park and Brooklyn Nine-Nine's Melissa Fumero, the show centres on the staff of the final ever Blockbuster store as they try to find ways to keep the brand from going totally under, as postal rentals and streaming services decimate the business.
The new pictures feature more of the cast beyond Park and Fumero, such as Tyler Alvarez and Olga Merediz, wearing uniforms and pulling some comedy faces.

The streaming giant also confirmed that all of the episodes will be dropping on Netflix on November 3, writing on Twitter: "Be kind, rewind... and meet your new favorite employees of the month."
Fumero shared Netflix's tweet and added "Here we gooooooo! See you November 3rd!!", while Alvarez shared a new photo of himself in costume and wrote: "Blockbuster the series launches November 3, only on @netflix!!!"
"Meet Connie. Meet Eliza. You will love the Blockbuster employees," Merediz tweeted, "Blockbuster launches November 3. Only on @netflix."

Blockbuster used to be the market leader in the video rental store market, but thanks to the rise of Netflix (which is making the show, ironically) the business and that entire industry collapsed.
Interestingly enough, there is actually one Blockbuster store remaining in the world. Based in Oregon, it has carved out a niche for itself not just on being the final one of its kind, but also hosting movie sleepover events.
Blockbuster will be available to stream on Netflix from November 3.
