The holiday season is officially upon on us and based on Netflix's sexy movie selection [1] this December, Santa may be making a few last-minute changes to the naughty and nice list — let's just say, we've been inspired to break out the mistletoe even earlier. In addition to all of Netflix's festive movie offerings [2] — we've got our eyes set on Single All the Way [3], which premieres on Dec. 2 — the streaming platform will be dropping new originals including Still Out of My League, a spicy foreign film about two individuals who unexpectedly fall in love, and Cobalt Blue, which follows a complicated love triangle set in India. Familiar titles like Fool's Gold and Think Like a Man will also be available at the beginning of the month. The weather may be frightful, but Netflix's slate of naughty films [4] is here to keep you toastier than a cup of hot cocoa. Turn up the heat with these sexy movies in the coming weeks!

Fool's Gold

Rom-com duo Kate Hudson [6] and Matthew McConaughey [7] star in this sultry comedy about a treasure hunter's compulsive fascination with unearthing the fabled Queen's Dowry. Playing on-screen lovers is nothing new for these two; but this time, their characters are falling back in love after being on the brink of divorce. So, they've got lots of making up to do.

When it's available: Dec. 1 [8]

Chloe

Is it getting hot in here or is that just Amanda Seyfried [9] steaming up our screens? Convinced her husband (Liam Neeson) is having multiple affairs, a timid wife (Julianne Moore [10]) seeks out the counsel of a sex worker named Chloe (Seyfried), whom she hires to tempt her husband. Things get drastically out of hand when a flirty outing turns into the two of them fogging up the windows of a botanical garden, leaving Catherine dazed, confused, and jealous at same time. So, Chloe gives her a sexual awakening of her own.

When it's available: Dec. 1 [11]

Chocolat

Temptation takes over a quaint religious town after a vivacious chocolatier named Vianne begins selling magical chocolate candies that are known for their aphrodisiac qualities. Vianne's never had such luck with her own chocolates, but then a sexy townsman named Roux comes into her life, making her feel all sorts of ways.

When it's available: Dec. 1 [12]

Closer

Closer is a very messy tale about four strangers whose lives are tangled together after one man's boredom leads him to having an affair with Anna, (Julia Roberts [13]) a successful photographer. Still bored and clearly unhappy with his life, Dan begins cat-fishing a dermatologist named Larry as Anna. Unbeknownst to Dan, Larry and the real-life Anna find themselves in the same room one day and things unfold from there. This seducing title features Jude Law [14] so clearly it's oozing with sexiness.

When it's available: Dec. 1 [15]

Sabrina

Adapted from the 1954 play titled Sabrina Fair, this late '90s remake follows the very beautiful Sabrina Fairchild, who's now all grown up and ready to claim what's rightfully hers: David Larrabee.

But is Linus strong enough to withstand Sabrina's alluring charm and beauty?

When it's available: Dec. 1 [17]

Think Like a Man

In this ultimate battle of the sexes, four women utilise Steve Harvey's self-help book, Act Like a Lady, Think Like a Man, as a playbook for their own relationships, and it works!

Single All the Way

Desperate to get his mom and entire family off his back, Peter convinces his best friend to be his fake boyfriend for the holidays.

But as the Christmas festivities commence, Peter realises that maybe the person who makes him the happiest has been standing next him all along. Jennifer Coolidge also stars in this holiday rom-com so you know the one-liners will be highly hilariously, yet also mildly inappropriate.

When it's available: Dec. 2 [21]

Cobalt Blue

In this Indian film, things get a bit dicy (and risqué) when a paying guest finds himself in an emotional and physical, twisted loved triangle with the son and daughter of his landlord, who all happen to live under the same roof. Talk about airing out family drama, right?

Still Out of My League

What happens when a heartbroken, hopeless romantic wins over the heart of an affluent artist with the chiseled physique of a goddess? An epic and very — like, veryyy — sensual love story.
