Time is running out for fans of the thrilling crime drama, Prison Break! Netflix subscribers are receiving notifications that the series is being removed from the streaming platform soon. If you haven't finished binging all five seasons, you'll want to act fast.
Why is Prison Break Leaving Netflix?
The removal is due to the expiration of a licensing agreement between Netflix and Disney, the current owner of 20th Century Fox Television, the show's producer. This agreement allowed Netflix to stream Prison Break after it had previously been removed in January 2022. The show made a comeback on July 29, 2024, but the deal is now coming to an end.
Internationally, Prison Break will be removed from Netflix on September 4, 2025. This includes regions like Australia, the United Kingdom, Canada, Latin America, Europe, and Asia. Netflix has already issued a "Last day to watch" notice for September 3rd in these regions.
In the US, viewers have a little more time. Prison Break will remain available on Netflix in the United States until January 29, 2026. However, don't wait too long!
Where Can You Watch Prison Break After Netflix?
Fortunately, Prison Break has a permanent streaming home on Disney+. Subscribers can continue watching the series there after it leaves Netflix. This ensures that fans can still access the show and follow the intricate plot of Michael Scofield's daring plan to free his brother from prison.
A Prison Break Reboot is in Development!
Exciting news for die-hard fans: a Prison Break reboot is reportedly in development at Hulu! While details are still emerging, the new series is expected to be set in the same universe as the original but will feature a new cast of characters. A pilot was ordered in December 2024. Stay tuned for more updates on this exciting project.
So, whether you're a long-time fan or a newcomer, don't miss your last chance to binge Prison Break on Netflix! And remember, you can always catch it on Disney+ afterward.
