Benjamin Mason Walker Cooper • 2026-05-08 • Reviewed by Maya Thompson

Trying to keep track of which service has which version of a movie these days can feel like a full-time job. With Wicked (2024) already streaming on Prime Video and its sequel, Wicked: For Good, heading to Peacock after its theatrical run, the streaming path is anything but simple.

Current streaming platforms: 3 ·
Subscription cost (Prime Video, US): $14.99/month ·
Peacock exclusive (For Good): Yes ·
Netflix release date (For Good): 2025 (unconfirmed)

At a glance, the platforms differ in timing and cost. The table below shows where each title lives right now.
Title Platform Cost (US) Status
Wicked (2024) Prime Video $14.99/month (included) or $5.99 rental Available now
Wicked: For Good Peacock $11/month (Premium) or $17/month (Premium Plus) Starts March 20, 2026
Wicked (2024) Sky Cinema (UK/Ireland) From £11/month Available now
Wicked: For Good Netflix Not confirmed Not available
Neither title Disney+ N/A Not available
The catch

If you want both films, you need two subscriptions: Prime Video for Part 1 now, Peacock for Part 2 later. That’s $26 per month minimum — unless you churn after watching Wicked.

Is Wicked on Netflix or Disney+?

Neither, as of June 2025. Wicked (2024) is not on Netflix or Disney+ anywhere. According to Business Insider, no recent deal places either film on those platforms.

Netflix availability for Wicked

Netflix does not have Wicked Part 1. A future window for Wicked: For Good has been speculated but not confirmed by any official source. If it arrives on Netflix, it would be after Peacock’s exclusive period.

Disney+ availability for Wicked

Disney+ does not hold streaming rights for any Wicked title. Despite fan speculation, no announcement from Disney or Universal indicates a future addition.

The implication: anyone asking “Is Wicked on Disney+” or “Is Wicked on Netflix” will be disappointed. Prime Video and Peacock are the only games in town.

The verdict: Wicked is not on Netflix or Disney+ as of June 2025. Viewers must look to Prime Video for Part 1 and Peacock for Part 2.

Is Wicked on Amazon Prime free?

If you already have an Amazon Prime membership, yes — Wicked Part 1 is included at no extra cost. For non-members, it’s a rental or purchase.

Prime membership cost

Amazon Prime costs $14.99 per month or $139 per year in the US. There are discounted plans for students and those on government assistance (Prime Access).

Rental vs included with Prime

Prime members stream Wicked at no additional charge. Non-members can rent it for $5.99 or buy it for $19.99 on the Prime Video Store. Rentals give 30 days to start watching and 48 hours to finish.

  • Prime membership: unlimited streaming of Wicked
  • Rental (no Prime): $5.99, 30-day window
  • Purchase (no Prime): $19.99

Why this matters: the ‘free’ label applies only if you already pay for Prime. Otherwise, the rental is cheaper than a month of Prime if you only want this one film.

How to watch Wicked on Disney+?

You can’t — and there is no workaround. Wicked is not available on Disney+ in any region as of June 2025.

Disney+ content catalog

Disney+ focuses on Disney, Pixar, Marvel, Star Wars, and National Geographic. Wicked is a Universal Pictures release, and Universal’s streaming deals are with Prime Video, Peacock, and Sky — not Disney.

Regional restrictions

Even if you use a VPN, the title is not in Disney+’s library anywhere. The rights simply don’t exist.

The takeaway: if you see a claim that Wicked is on Disney+, it’s incorrect. Stick to the official sources.

Where to watch Wicked: For Good (2025)?

Wicked: For Good premiered in theaters on November 21, 2025. Its streaming future is already set.

Peacock exclusive window

The sequel streams exclusively on Peacock starting March 20, 2026. You’ll need a Peacock Premium plan ($11/month) or Premium Plus ($17/month ad-free). The Peacock Select plan does not include this film.

Netflix release date speculation

After the Peacock window, a Netflix release is possible but not confirmed. Some sources suggest 2026 or later, but no official announcement has been made.

The pattern: Universal uses a multi-platform strategy — Prime for the first, Peacock for the second. Viewers who want to follow the story in order will need both services.

What to watch

Buying a Peacock subscription only for Wicked: For Good? The film’s streaming extras include director commentary, deleted scenes, and a sing-along mode — decent bonuses if you’re a fan.

Where to watch Wicked Part 1 for free?

There’s one legal way to watch Wicked at no cost: a free trial of Amazon Prime.

Free trial options

Amazon offers a 30-day free trial of Prime for new subscribers. Sign up, stream Wicked, cancel before the trial ends. That’s $0 out of pocket.

Library rental

Another option: local libraries often carry DVD or Blu-ray copies of Wicked. It’s not streaming, but it’s free and legal. Check your library’s catalog if physical media works for you.

For those without a library nearby, the best deal is the $5.99 rental — cheaper than a month of Prime if you only need the one film.

Comparison: Streaming platforms for Wicked

Three platforms, three different value propositions. Here’s how they stack up.

This comparison table clarifies which platform delivers which title and at what cost.

Platform Wicked Part 1 Wicked: For Good Minimum monthly cost
Prime Video Included with Prime (or $5.99 rental) Not available $14.99 (Prime) or $0 for rental
Peacock No longer available (moved to Prime) Included with Premium $11.00
Netflix Not available Not available (potential future window) N/A
Disney+ Not available Not available N/A
Sky Cinema (UK/Ireland) Included with subscription TBD From £11/month

The trade-off: Prime Video gives you Part 1 today; Peacock gives you Part 2 tomorrow. If you want both, budget for two subscriptions unless you time the free trials perfectly.

Upsides

  • Prime Video includes Wicked with no extra fee for members
  • Peacock’s For Good streaming includes bonus content (deleted scenes, sing-along)
  • Free trial options available for Prime Video (30 days)
  • Rental option avoids full subscription if you only want one title

Downsides

  • No single platform carries both films
  • Netflix availability remains unconfirmed, causing confusion
  • Peacock’s cheapest plan (Select) does not include Wicked
  • Regional availability outside US/UK is unclear

Timeline: Wicked streaming journey

The release and streaming dates tell a story of rapid platform shifts.

  • November 2024: Wicked Part 1 released in theaters
  • December 2024: Wicked arrives on Prime Video (US) and Sky Cinema (UK)
  • November 21, 2025: Wicked: For Good theatrical release
  • March 20, 2026: Wicked: For Good exclusive Peacock streaming debut

What’s confirmed — and what’s not

Confirmed facts

  • Wicked (2024) streams on Prime Video (US, UK) as of June 2025
  • Wicked: For Good will stream exclusively on Peacock after theatrical release

What’s unclear

  • Netflix release date for Wicked: For Good is not officially confirmed
  • Regional availability for Wicked: For Good outside US/UK is not announced
  • Sky Cinema availability for Wicked (2024) in UK/Ireland relies on aggregator sources, not an official Sky announcement

“Wicked is included with Prime membership in the US” — Amazon News (official company blog)

“Wicked: For Good is now streaming exclusively on Peacock” — Peacock Blog (streaming service announcement)

For US viewers who want to see the full story, the choice is clear: watch Part 1 on Prime Video (free with a trial or $5.99 rental) and then subscribe to Peacock for Part 2 when it drops in March 2026. For UK and Irish audiences, Sky Cinema remains the home for Part 1, while Peacock availability for For Good hasn’t been announced yet. The implication: plan your streaming calendar now, or end up paying twice.
