Wicked officially landed in theaters on Nov. 22. If you’re wondering when the fantasy movie musical will be available on Peacock and digital sites, you’re not alone! Read on to discover when you will likely be able to stream the blockbuster hit from home.

Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo take center stage as Glinda and Elphaba in Wicked, a two-part cinematic event set to debut on Nov. 22, 2024, and Nov. 21, 2025. The film is an adaptation of the Tony-winning Broadway musical Wicked, itself inspired by Gregory Maguire’s 1995 novel, which reimagines the iconic characters from The Wizard of Oz books and films.

Wicked follows the origin story of Elphaba, who ultimately turns into the Wicked Witch of the West. “Misunderstood because of her green skin, a young woman named Elphaba forges an unlikely but profound friendship with Glinda, a student with an unflinching desire for popularity,” the movie’s synopsis reads. “Following an encounter with the Wizard of Oz, their relationship soon reaches a crossroad as their lives begin to take very different paths.”

Wicked is distributed by Universal Pictures, so the film is set to land on Peacock in the future. Fans can expect the movie to arrive on the streaming platform about three to four months after its theatrical debut—likely in February or March 2025.

For reference, Twisters premiered in theaters on July 19, 2024, and became available on Peacock nearly four months later, on Nov. 15, 2024. Similarly, The Fall Guy followed a comparable timeline, arriving on the streaming platform just under four months after its theatrical debut.

The film will be available for purchase or rental on digital platforms like Amazon Prime Video and Apple TV+ much sooner—typically about 45 to 65 days after its theatrical debut. The film’s box office performance will likely influence how quickly the movie will be released on digital.
