Disney has agreed to license a slate of movies and TV shows to Netflix, including the existing "Ice Age" films and the series "Percy Jackson and the Olympians" and "Will Trent", the companies said on Friday.
The deal expands Netflix's access to Disney-owned content as the streaming platform broadens its library through licensing agreements. It follows a July deal with AMC Global Media that brought "The Walking Dead" series to Netflix.
What arrives first
The first two seasons of the Disney+ original series "Percy Jackson and the Olympians" will be available globally on Netflix from October 4 for three months. The five "Ice Age" films will also begin streaming globally on Netflix for three months, ahead of the theatrical release of "Ice Age: Boiling Point" early next year.
More films from early 2027
The agreement also includes a selection of Disney and Pixar films — including "Soul", "Elio" and "Raya and the Last Dragon" — which will be available globally on Netflix from early 2027, with varying launch dates across regions.
Disney-branded titles will largely remain exclusive to its streaming platforms and TV channels, the company said, signalling that the licensing push is selective rather than a wholesale opening of the Disney vault.
