It’s the final round for Creed II on Netflix UK this December, and the final opportunity that UK subscribers have to catch the Rocky sequel spin-off in action. Creed II was just one of the many great titles to be removed from Netflix UK in December 2020.
There were many sequels to the Rocky films. It was the sixth installment of Rocky Balboa's franchise when it arrived in 2006. It was the ideal opportunity to move the story along, with an older Sylvester Stallone alongside a rising star in Michael B. Jordan. Adjusting the narrative to Apollo Creed’s son, Adonis was a recipe for success and helped revitalize the love for an underdog boxing story.
In the sequel to Creed, Adonis ‘Donnie’ Creed has become a global star and is the current WBC World Heavyweight Championship. When Ivan Drago, the killer of Donnie’s father Apollo, sees the opportunity to regain glory, he enlists his so, Viktor, to take on the world champion.
Multiple sources have confirmed that Creed II is leaving Netflix UK in 2020.
You can find the movie’s availability listed on the Netflix App or through your web browser.
Creed II first became available on Netflix UK's library in June 2019. This means that the film has been streaming from Netflix UK for 18 months.
With a streaming license that only lasts eighteen months, Creed II’s time on Netflix UK is over for now.
Each title Netflix UK licences has a time limit for which it can be streamed. The length of the streaming licenses is flexible. They can be as short as 3 months or as long as 5 years.
Creed II had been available for streaming on Now TV before it was made available on Netflix UK. You can either watch the movie on Now TV where you'll need Sky Movies or it could be landed on Amazon Prime.
We cannot say that they will ever return to Netflix UK, as we can't categorical state this for most titles. Movies such as Creed II will most likely be re-released on streaming services.
It could take up to twelve months for Creed II to return on Netflix UK. Or it may take over two years.
