John Wick – Picture Lionsgate

The impending release of John Wick 3 in 2019 has led us to revisit and reask the question as to whether you can watch John Wick or John Wick 2 on Netflix. A few more regions have seen the movie stream since our last update so here’s the current status of the movies. 

John Wick has broken ground and revitalized Keanu Reeves career (not that it necessarily needed it) and has become a cult classic.

The film franchise focuses on an ex-hitman who has made murder an art form. The first movie sees him take down a mob after they murdered his dog. In the second, he gets dragged back into the business he hoped to get away from.

The first movie was released in 2014, the second in 2017, and the third movie is due for release in cinemas this coming May.


Why John Wick isn’t on Netflix in the United States

As you have probably worked out by now, John Wick is not streaming on Netflix in the United States right now. Previously, Netflix in the US had all of the Lionsgate movies but that contract has since ended.

Some Lionsgate movies ended up on HBO, but even then it’s not all of them.

Movies similar to John Wick on Netflix

We don’t want you heading away from this article empty handed so here are some of our favorite picks of titles that share similarities to John Wick that are currently streaming.

Polar (2019) Netflix Original

Sporting a similar theme, color set and moody protagonist, the closest you’ll come to John Wick on Netflix is Polar. The movie, released in early 2019 exclusively on Netflix, sports a fantastic soundtrack. While it doesn’t offer a complete package quite like John Wick, it’s a worthy adversary.

The Punisher (2 Seasons) Netflix Original

If it’s a series you’re after with someone that kicks some serious ass then it’s hard to not to point in the direction of The Punisher. Despite being a Marvel series, it’s full of gore, guts, and sweary language.

Here are some of the other suggestions Netflix gives for John Wick:

  • Killer Elite (2011)
  • Close (2019) Netflix Original
  • Ninja Assassin (2009)
