Is Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them on Netflix?

With the sequel, Fantastic Beasts the Crimes of Grindelwald, due for release at the end of the year can watch the prequel on the biggest streaming network?

The short answer is no. Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them is not available to stream on Netflix. That’s not to say it was available at one time and it’s currently unavailable, as far as we can tell it has never been available on Netflix.

It is not just Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them either. None of the eight Harry Potter movies have been available to stream either. It’s like Netflix has a thing against Witches and Wizards.

No that’s a lie, Netflix has nothing against Witches and Wizards. They have real reasons for not being able to stream the movie, but while they may have their reasons it still sucks.

Will Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them come to Netflix?

It would be nice, especially with Fantastic Beasts the Crimes of Grindelwald just around the corner. Plenty of us would want to watch the prequel before the sequel came out so it would make complete sense to make it available, but it is highly doubtful

After all, if, after almost seven years since the final instalment, none of the Harry Potter movies have been on Netflix, not even once, then it is unlikely they are about to start now.

You never know though, we might get a nice surprise one day. Maybe someone will cast a spell and it will become available, but I shouldn’t get your hopes up anytime soon.
