Netflix strikes unexpected deal with Disney+ — 17 movies and shows crossing the streaming divide

In a surprising move that feels a bit like the "KPop Demon Hunters" joining the cast of “Avengers: Doomsday,” Netflix and Disney+ have announced they’re crossing the streaming divide and have inked a deal to bring a selection of Disney movies and shows to Netflix.

Variety reports that Disney Entertainment and Netflix have “entered into an expansive new content licensing agreement, which will bring an eclectic mix of library titles and current-season TV shows to Netflix for varying periods of time.” In simple terms, with the buzzwords removed, that means Disney+ content is being added to Netflix.

Now don’t go dreaming about getting access to Disney+’s entire library on Netflix. You won’t be streaming every season of “The Mandalorian” or the upcoming Marvel show “VisionQuest” on Netflix (or at least, not yet). Disney is bringing a curated selection of its movies and shows to Netflix between now (October 2026) and a vague “early 2027" window.

The rollout has already started, with the first two seasons of Disney+ original “Percy Jackson and the Olympians” added to Netflix over the weekend (Sunday, Oct. 4). On the same day, Netflix also got all five “Ice Age” movies, which Disney’s 20th Century Studios distributes.

These are just the tip of the iceberg (yes, that was my attempt at an “Ice Age” pun). According to Variety, over the remainder of 2026 and into 2027, the following Disney shows/movies will be added to Netflix.

Additionally, Netflix will receive a selection of Disney-owned shows that have wrapped up and are considered complete.
