In some exciting news for families, Wicked: For Good will have a streaming home starting this month. The Wicked sequel is heading to Netflix on July 20, 2026.
The news that the Universal Pictures movie was heading to Netflix was certainly a surprise for many. It’s linked to the new deal between Universal and the streaming giant, which will see all Universal movies get a second streaming run on Netflix for the time being.
There is a catch. The first Wicked movie is not heading to Netflix. That will remain on Peacock for now, and it does appear to be somewhat of an oversight. However, it’s due to the timing of the deal being made, which didn’t include any previous movies, including Wicked. So, viewers who want the full experience will need to get both Peacock and Netflix.
It’s likely why many fans of multiple TV shows and movies are saying that DVDs and Blu-Rays are still good to have. By owning the physical media, there’s no need to worry about shows and movies leaving platforms. It came up just recently when Netflix lost Gilmore Girls — although that is now on Prime Video.
This is not the first movie to drop on Netflix after an initial run on Peacock. Jurassic World: Rebirth and How to Train Your Dragon (the live-action version) have recently been added to the streamer. The deal itself pertains to 2027 live-action releases, though.
There is hope that the entire Wicked franchise could end up on Netflix in the near future. If Universal and Netflix realize the success of the second movie, they may enter into a deal for this specific release.
Wicked: For Good was the follow-up to the first movie, picking up directly after the events that saw Elphaba exiled in the Ozian Forest. Glinda tries to make the most of her time in the Emerald City, but she knows the truth, and it’s not always easy living with that. As an angry mob rises against the Wicked Witch of the West, Glinda has to decide which side of this fight she is on.
Meanwhile, Elphaba tries to help the people around her, but much of her other magic backfires. At the same time, she pushes hard to reveal the truth about the Wizard, but as she does that, she finds out more and more of the dark secrets this Wizard is hiding, as well as a little about her own origins.
Wicked will remain on Peacock, but Wicked: For Good will head to Netflix on July 20, 2026.
