Happy Gilmore Leaving Netflix: Find Out the Departure Date and Reasons
Attention all Happy Gilmore fans! In a surprising twist, right after the highly anticipated release of Happy Gilmore 2, the original Happy Gilmore movie is set to leave Netflix soon. It’s a bit of a head-scratcher, but it seems like there are some licensing issues at play in the world of streaming.
So, why is Happy Gilmore bidding farewell to Netflix and when can we expect it to happen? Well, Happy Gilmore 2 hit Netflix screens on July 25, 2025, bringing back the beloved cast after almost three decades. With the buzz around the sequel, viewership of the first movie skyrocketed, landing it in the Top 10 on Netflix.
But, unfortunately, due to licensing agreements, Happy Gilmore will be saying goodbye to Netflix on August 1, 2025. While a bunch of movies are leaving on that date, Happy Gilmore seems to be stealing the spotlight.
As the second movie just made its debut, it was expected to drive even more fans to watch the original. But, for some reason, the license couldn’t be renewed. Don’t worry though, fans will still have options to catch the movie elsewhere.
Even though Happy Gilmore is leaving Netflix, reports suggest that fans can still stream it on other platforms like Hulu and Peacock in the U.S. So, no need to panic, you’ll still be able to enjoy Happy Gilmore even after it leaves Netflix on August 1.
And for those eager to catch Happy Gilmore 2, you’re in luck! The second installment is now exclusively streaming on Netflix. So, grab your popcorn and get ready to enjoy more Adam Sandler goodness alongside the original cast in this highly anticipated sequel.
Stay tuned for more updates on Happy Gilmore 2 and happy streaming!
