where can i watch where the wild things are

June 28, 2026

You can watch Where the Wild Things Are on several major platforms, though options vary a bit by country and over time.

Quick Scoop

As of recent listings, the 2009 Spike Jonze film is generally not on the big subscription giants like Netflix or Disney+ in most regions, but it is widely available to rent, buy, or stream on other services.

Think of it as one of those movies that’s almost always “around,” just usually behind a small paywall or via a niche service.

Main Ways to Watch

Here are the most common, legit options that show up across regions:

Subscription streaming
- Some regions have it on services like Crave/Starz (Canada), Stan or Prime Video (Australia), or The Roku Channel.

* In a few cases, it can be streamed for free with ads on platforms like Plex.

Digital rental or purchase
- Frequently available to rent or buy on:
  - Apple TV / iTunes

  * Amazon Video / Prime Video Store

  * Fandango at Home / Vudu and similar stores

  * YouTube or Google Play Movies in some regions

Physical media
- Still sold on DVD and Blu‑ray through retailers like Amazon and studio shops.

In practice, if you search the title on your smart TV, Roku, or streaming search app, it almost always points you to a rental/purchase storefront and sometimes an ad‑supported option.

Region Tips (Since It Moves Around)

Because streaming rights shift, the best quick strategy is:

Open a streaming‑search app (or device like Roku, Apple TV, Fire TV).
Type “Where the Wild Things Are (2009)”.
Check:
- “Included with subscription” rows first (Prime, Crave, Stan, etc.).
- Then “Rent/Buy” rows for Apple, Amazon, YouTube, and others.

If you tell me your specific country or main streaming subscriptions, I can narrow down the likeliest places for you to watch it right now using those services.
