When is After 5 coming to Netflix? (and 7 movies to watch while you wait for After Everything)

The After Everything release date was just announced in July 2023. We don’t have to wait too much longer for the new movie. After Everything is the fifth movie of the After movie franchise, and After 5 is coming to Netflix soon, too.

Hero Fiennes Tiffin and Josephine Langford are back for the fifth film. It’s already been filmed, and it’s been in post-production for a while now. With all four After movies available to stream on Netflix in the United States, fans obviously want to know when the new movie will be available to stream on Netflix.

Because we’re expecting quite the wait, we thought it would be a good idea to share a list of movies on Netflix for After fans to watch while waiting for After Everything. 

After Everything release date in theaters

After Everything premieres in theaters on Sept. 13, 2023! That’s only a few months away. If you’re going to watch the movie in theaters, you should definitely rewatch all four After movies on Netflix right now.

When will After 5 be released on Netflix?

We know that After Everything is coming to theaters in September 2023. That’s also when the last three After movies have been released.

So, you can watch After 5 on Netflix in September, right? Wrong. You’re going to have to wait a bit longer to watch the movie on Netflix.

When After Everything premieres in theaters this September, the movie will likely be available to stream on Netflix in December 2023. That’s what happened with After Ever Happy, the fourth film. It premiered in theaters in September 2022, and the movie was added to Netflix in December 2022.

UPDATE: After Everything will be released on Netflix on Thursday, Jan. 11, 2024.
