Madame Web’ Leaves Netflix for Disney+ in Pay-2 Window

The shift reflects Sony’s pay‑window licensing that routes first‑run streaming to Netflix before a second run on Disney+.

Overview

  • The film became available on Disney+ on November 14 following the end of its Pay‑1 term on Netflix.
  • The 2024 release grossed about $100.5 million worldwide against a reported $80–100 million budget and holds a 10% Rotten Tomatoes score.
  • During its Netflix run, it ranked among the service’s most‑watched titles despite poor critical reception.
  • The platform change stems from a pre‑existing Sony deal that grants Netflix Pay‑1 rights and assigns Pay‑2 to Disney+, as explained by The Direct.
  • The move expands Disney+’s collection of Marvel films outside the MCU, adding another entry from Sony’s Spider‑Man Universe.
