Is The Color Purple on Netflix after theaters? (Where to stream)

Are you ready for a remake of The Color Purple? The story is an important classic, and it’s worthy of a 2023 remake. This is a story that can’t be allowed to be forgotten about.

The story follows Celie, a woman torn away from her sister and children. She’s forced to deal with an abusive husband and various hardships in life. If it wasn’t for a sultry singer called Shug Avery and her stepdaughter, she may not have found the extraordinary strength needed to get through it all.

This is a story of preservation and strength. It’s a story of sisterhood. There’s no doubt that you’ll want to see it in theaters. The question is where it streams after that so you can watch it again.

Is The Color Purple on Netflix?

We do start this post with some bad news. The Color Purple will not come to Netflix after theaters.

Where will The Color Purple stream?

This is a Warner Bros. movie, which means it is heading to one particular streaming platform after this. It will head to Max for the first exclusive streaming. It could head to Netflix after that, but it won’t be for a couple of years at the least.
