In December, Netflix is introducing a notable change to its streaming platform by removing several films and shows from its content library. The streaming service consistently refreshes its content by retiring older titles to make room for new additions. Subscribers are encouraged to act promptly if they want to view these titles before they are permanently removed.
For a thorough overview of the content scheduled for removal from Netflix UK in December, you can consult the information available on What’s On Netflix.
In December 2023, Netflix is slated to remove a substantial total of 103 films and shows, including some original content that may not secure a new streaming home once removed.
The first day of the month will witness the highest number of removals, with 34 titles exiting the platform. This list encompasses cherished family favorites like Stuart Little and its sequel, along with other notable films such as Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves, Sausage Party, and Stand By Me.
Parents may be disheartened to learn that the widely acclaimed Miraculous: Tales of Ladybug & Cat Noir is set to be removed from the platform starting on 2 December, while Vin Diesel’s film Riddick is scheduled for removal on 6 December.
Guillermo Del Toro’s acclaimed masterpiece, Pan’s Labyrinth, is set to depart Netflix on December 9, while the 2014 film Godzilla will no longer be accessible on the platform starting from December 5. The destination for these films after their removal remains uncertain.
Henry Cavill’s debut as Superman in the 2013 film Man of Steel is among the noteworthy releases scheduled to be removed from Netflix, with its departure set for December 2.
Even Netflix Originals are not exempt from this removal, as titles like Hymn of Death, Zumbo’s Just Desserts, Twice Upon A Time, and Nightflyers are all scheduled for removal throughout the month of December.
