Wicked Digital and Blu-Ray Release DateÂ
The digital release for Wicked is officially set for Tuesday, December 31, 2024. Digital release means the movie will be available for purchase or rent on various platforms like Amazon Prime Video, Apple TV, Microsoft Movies & TV, Comcast Xfinity, Cox, and Fandango at Home (formerly Vudu).
The digital version of Wicked comes with exciting bonus content, including a singalong version and a 40-minute journey through Oz that celebrates the film’s transformative magic. This makes it a perfect purchase for fans who want to dive deeper into the world of Oz. Pricing details for purchase or rent may vary by platform.
For those who prefer physical media, Wicked will also debut on 4K UHD, Blu-ray, and DVD on Tuesday, February 4, 2025.

The Blu-ray is likely to include the same bonus content as the digital version, plus exclusive behind-the-scenes features. While pre-orders are not yet available, the 4K UHD version is expected to cost around $40, while the Blu-ray version will be priced at approximately $35.
When Will Wicked Start Streaming on Peacock?
This is the big question on everyone’s mind, as streaming services like Peacock have become a go-to for movie fans. Currently, Wicked is not streaming on Peacock and remains exclusive to theaters. However, based on Universal’s typical release patterns, we can estimate when the film will hit Peacock. For instance, Universal’s Twisters began streaming on Peacock roughly four months after its theatrical release and three months after its digital debut.
If Wicked follows a similar timeline, it will likely start streaming on Peacock around late March 2025, roughly four months after its initial theatrical release. Until then, you can enjoy Wicked digitally starting December 31, 2024, or own a Blu-ray copy from February 4, 2025.
Whether you choose to watch it digitally, on Blu-ray, or eventually on Peacock, the film’s magical journey through Oz is sure to captivate audiences everywhere.
