As the calendar turns to a new month, Netflix is set to remove a variety of well-known films from its streaming service on May 31st. This regular catalog refresh means subscribers have a limited time to catch these titles before they disappear.

Among the notable departures is the acclaimed musical "The Greatest Showman," directed by Michael Gracey and starring Hugh Jackman, Michelle Williams, Zac Efron, and Zendaya. The film, celebrated for its vibrant soundtrack, chronicles the life of 19th-century showman P.T. Barnum.

Fans of Steve Martin will also see two of his comedies leave the platform: "Father of the Bride," where he plays a father dealing with his daughter's wedding, and "Cheaper by the Dozen," which follows his chaotic life managing a large family. Additionally, the family adventure "Night at the Museum," starring Ben Stiller and Robin Williams, will no longer be available.

Other films making their exit include the 2000s classic "My Best Friend's Mermaid" featuring Emma Roberts and Sara Paxton, the romantic drama "The Last Song" starring Miley Cyrus and Liam Hemsworth, the dystopian thriller "Maze Runner: The Scorch Trials," and the family film "Dr. Dolittle."
