The musical drama In the Heights comes from the creator of Hamilton and the director of Crazy Rich Asians, making it a must-watch movie. It is no secret everyone is excited to experience this cinematic endeavor, and many subscribers are wondering if the feature is headed for Netflix.

The movie is based on the enthralling stage musical of the same name that was created by Lin-Manuel Miranda, who fans know from Hamilton and Mary Poppins Returns, and Quiara Alegría Hudes, who also wrote the screenplay. The entire affair has a stellar cast, including Anthony Ramos, Corey Hawkins, Leslie Grace, Stephanie Beatriz, Melissa Barrera, Olga Merediz, Daphne Rubin-Vega, Gregory Diaz IV and Jimmy Smits.

In the Heights follows a wide-eyed bodega owner who saves every penny in hopes of attaining a better life. The motion picture is chock full of great performances and even better music, making it a worthwhile experience.

Critics have praised the well-crafted film so far, and it already has an impressive score on Rotten Tomatoes. It makes a lot of sense as to why so many people are psyched about In the Heights, and it’s no wonder there is a lot of speculation going around when it comes to the hotly anticipated title’s Netflix availability.

Will In the Heights be available on Netflix?

In the Heights is set to release in theaters on June 10, 2021, and will also stream exclusively on HBO Max at no additional charge to subscribers of the Warner Brothers and Discovery-owned service. So, this would lead one to believe that the musical flick will not be available on Netflix.

While this is a bummer for many, it is imperative not to forget that there are plenty of other options besides In the Heights available on the streaming service. Titles like The Prom, Over the Moon, Work It and Eurovision Song Contest: The Story of Fire Saga are ready to stream on Netflix now!
