Don't Expect To See SPIDER-MAN: NO WAY HOME On Netflix Or Disney+ For A Good While Yet

The Spider-Man franchise is expected to eventually swing on to Disney+, but it sounds like we'll be waiting a while for Spider-Man: No Way Home to hit a mainstream streaming service. Read on for details...

Spider-Man: No Way Home is still playing in theaters, but many fans are understandably anxious to watch the movie at home. As of right now, Sony Pictures has yet to reveal a Digital or Blu-ray release date; however, the blockbuster's first streaming destination has been confirmed by Deadline.

In a piece looking at Starz's expansion plans, it's noted that Spider-Man: No Way Home is going to arrive on that service at some point in the next six months. 

While that certainly narrows down the movie's streaming debut, it also confirms that those of you in the U.S. will need a Starz subscription if streaming is your preferred choice of viewing format. We're not sure how long the wall-crawler's latest big screen adventure will be exclusive to the service, but this does close the door on a Netflix or Disney+ for the foreseeable future. 

Starz CEO Jeffrey Hirsch addressed the importance of nabbing a movie like Spider-Man: No Way Home by saying "you put the right shows and content around it so you can move customers that watch Spider-Man into one of your originals." 

In terms of what this means for Sony's agreement with Disney to bring Spidey to Disney+, it's seemingly going to be a while yet due to pre-existing deals like this one. Hopefully, when Spider-Man: No Way Home does swing on to that service, it will be in the spectacular IMAX Enhanced mode.

What's the first scene you'll rewatch when Spider-Man: No Way Home hits Digital and Blu-ray?

Forcing most people (non-pirates) to buy the Blu Rays if they want to watch it in the next six or more months and delaying putting in on Netflix/Disney+ as much as possible?

That’s actually a pretty smart strategy by Sony, not going to lie. They’re probably going to make big bucks on the Blu Ray release.

Lionsgate but they have a deal with Sony.

@regularmovieguy - For some reason, the Fox and Fox+ became Starz and Starz+ after the buyout, so I assumed they were owned by the Fox company.
Still, I think Sony made a deal with Netflix last year, but Spiderman movies are always in a gray area (for example, Spiderman 1 and 2 are on Netflix, while Spiderman 3 is on HBO Max).

But what about Europe? Most of what goes to those services in the US, ends up on Netflix or Amazon where I live.

Not that I really mind though if they release a box with all Spider-Man movies, because I might just get that one then.

As much as we use Disney+, How would Sony make money for the streaming rights? We know Disney would give them the cheapest deal for the biggest movie of 2021. Sony is smart to give it to the highest bidder. I'm buying the blu-ray so I have no issues with where it ends up.
