The first two seasons of Percy Jackson and the Olympians and five Ice Age films come to Netflix worldwide on October 4, 2026, for three months. They are the first arrivals in a new Disney–Netflix licensing agreement, which the companies confirmed to Reuters on October 2.

This adds another place to watch selected titles. According to TheWrap, titles currently on Disney+ and Hulu remain there. The agreement does not transfer ownership of the franchises or send Disney’s whole catalog to Netflix.

Which Disney titles come to Netflix, and when?

The table follows Variety’s original deal report. Netflix has also directly announced Felicity’s U.S. date.

TitleNetflix startAnnounced territory and term
Percy Jackson and the Olympians, Seasons 1–2October 4, 2026Worldwide; three months
Five Ice Age filmsOctober 4, 2026Worldwide; three months
Felicity, complete seriesOctober 7, 2026United States; international dates follow later
Will Trent, Seasons 1–4November 3, 2026Worldwide
Shifting Gears, Seasons 1–2December 1, 2026 in the U.S.; January 2027 internationallyDifferent U.S. and international starts
Tracker, Seasons 1–3February 26, 2027Internationally, outside the United States; multiyear term

The five films are Ice Age, Ice Age: The Meltdown, Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs, Ice Age: Continental Drift and Ice Age: Collision Course. The announced batch does not include a Netflix premiere for Ice Age: Boiling Point.

Only the two October 4 batches have the three-month promotional term described above. Do not apply that term to every series in the deal or read an international date as a U.S. release.

Why are Percy Jackson and Ice Age staying for three months?

The short windows run ahead of new franchise releases on Disney’s own schedule. TheWrap describes them as promotional opportunities to reach viewers before the next installments.

Disney+ has announced Percy Jackson Season 3 for November 20, 2026. That season is not part of the announced Netflix batch: the agreement described here covers Seasons 1–2. Netflix viewers catching up will need Disney+ for the newly announced season.

Disney’s official movie page lists Ice Age: Boiling Point for theaters on February 5, 2027. A temporary Netflix window for the older films does not establish a subscription-streaming date for that sequel.

More Disney and Pixar films arrive in 2027

Reuters names Soul, Elio and Raya and the Last Dragon among the films coming from early 2027. Availability and launch dates vary by territory; there is no single announced day when every country gets all three.

Variety also lists Revenge and Army Wives for global availability, Fresh Off the Boat for the U.S. and selected regions, and This Is Us internationally outside the U.S. These titles have no specific start dates in that report.

Are these titles leaving Disney+ or Hulu?

No removal from Disney’s services is announced as part of this agreement. TheWrap says the existing Disney+ and Hulu availability continues while Netflix becomes an additional platform for the licensed titles. Disney told Reuters that Disney-branded content still largely remains exclusive to its own services and channels.

Check the listing in your own Netflix territory before subscribing. A worldwide batch, a U.S.-only launch and an international license are different availability promises.
