Netflix revealed 17 new Asian originals meant to kickstart growth in the region, including a movie starring Dev Patel

Netflix isn't huge in Asia like it is elsewhere in the world, but the streaming giant hopes to break through with a collection of new Asian originals.

  • Netflix announced a collection of Asian originals on Thursday, including "Pacific Rim" and "Altered Carbon" anime shows.
  • Netflix has yet to break through in Asia, and hasn't exceeded more than 2 million customers in any Asian market.
  • Netflix already streams the Indian original "Sacred Games," and plans to focus heavily on the country with this new initiative, including eight new original films.
