Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them is heading to Netflix Australia in October 2019
By Callum Gunn
Want to stream the first Fantastic Beasts movie? Australian fans get the chance to watch Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them on Netflix next month.
Each new month there’s a list of more movies and TV shows coming to Netflix. Sometimes, we get to find out that the Harry Potter or Fantastic Beasts movies are on their way. October is the month for Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, but only if you’re in Australia.
The first prequel movie will be available at the end of the month to stream on Netflix Australia. It’s about time the first movie was added since the sequel was included on the list of Australian offerings in September! It feels odd watching a sequel before a prequel.

You’ll have to wait for a while, though. Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them isn’t coming to Netflix Australia until Oct. 28 according to Who, just in time for Halloween.
Does this mean we’ll get the movie in the United States on Netflix? Don’t count on it. The Harry Potter and Fantastic Beasts movies will not likely head to Netflix ever, unless there are some agreements made between the streamer and Warner Bros.
Warner Bros. movies head to HBO Now, and you can stream there as much as you want. Right now, the Harry Potter movies are available through SYFY and USA Network because of a deal with NBCUniversal. With WarnerMedia’s own streamer coming soon, we may see the movies all head to HBO Max very soon.
