Top 10 Movies Leaving Netflix In June 2026

The streaming landscape is famously cyclical, and June 2026 on Netflix is no different. Just like every month, the streaming platform is scheduled to bid farewell to dozens of movies and TV series in the coming month. This is normal as studio licensing contracts shift and platform borders are redrawn constantly.

From modern masterpieces to era-defining epics, your watchlist on Netflix is about to get significantly lighter once these titles leave. So if you have been saving these titles for a rainy day, want to revisit them, or are looking forward to watching something new, here is your guide to the top 10 movies leaving Netflix in June 2026!

10 Mean Girls (2004)

Leaving Netflix on June 5

Tina Fey’s razor-sharp and endlessly quotable high school satire movie, Mean Girls, will be leaving Netflix next month. A permanent pillar of modern pop culture that has quite literally transcended time and cinema, the film stars Lindsay Lohan and Rachel McAdams. 

Audience of all ages have enjoyed Lohan’s Cady Heron navigating the vicious social hierarchy of The Plastics and Regina George’s tyranny and ultimately falling into the trap. A timeless comedy that continues to feel fresh, it is high time that you rewatch this masterpiece before it leaves the platform.

9 Independence Day (1996)

Leaving Netflix on June 1 

The ultimate blueprint for the modern summer blockbuster, Independence Day is considered a significant point in history for Hollywood. Roland Emmerich’s sci-fi disaster epic stars Will Smith, Jeff Goldblum, and Bill Pullman battling an extinction-level alien invasion. Having won an Academy Award for visual effects, the movie remains one of the most culturally iconic science fiction movies of all time.

From legendary, practical effects-driven destruction to featuring one of the best presidential speeches in cinema history, it is a masterclass crowd-pleaser. It is almost ironic that the film is leaving the platform right before July. If you love the genre and the feel of practical effects and intense storytelling, you cannot miss it!

8 Night at the Museum Trilogy (2006, 2009, 2014)

Leaving Netflix on June 1

Led by Ben Stiller’s impeccable straight-man comedic timing, for years, the Night at the Museum trilogy has entertained viewers of all ages. Unfortunately, this wildly imaginative family franchise turned historical educational lesson will not be available for streaming on Netflix from June 1. 

Starring the likes of Robin Williams, Owen Wilson, and an iconic ensemble cast that brought the exhibits of the American Museum of Natural History to life, this trilogy is unmissable. This weekend or next, make sure to watch Night at the Museum, Battle of the Smithsonian, and Secret of the Tomb before it departs! 

7 Glory (1989)

Leaving Netflix on June 1

One of the most powerful, emotionally shattering war movies ever produced, Edward Zwick’s Glory tells the story of the 54th Massachusetts Infantry Regiment. The film tracks the formation of the Union Army’s first all-Black volunteer unit during the American Civil War to the feats during the Second Battle of Fort Wagner. 

The Academy Award-winning film stars Matthew Broderick, Cary Elwes, Morgan Freeman, and Denzel Washington, who also won the Best Supporting Actor at the Oscars and Golden Globes. An essential historical text driven by a staggering, transcendent musical score by James Horner, it is a must-watch for every history and cinema fan. 

6 Ray (2004)

Leaving Netflix on June 1

Jamie Foxx delivered a once-in-a-generation performance in Ray that rightfully earned him the Academy Award for Best Actor. This sweeping musical biopic chronicles the tumultuous life and career of legendary rhythm-and-blues musician Ray Charles. 

The Academy Award-winning film traces Ray’s life from his childhood blindness to his battles with severe addiction and eventual ascension to being a global superstar. Apart from Jamie Foxx, the film starred an ensemble cast and received widespread praise for how it tackled the musician’s life and career. If you are in the mood for something soulful and inspiring, then Ray is your best bet before it leaves the platform for good!

5 Casino (1995)

Leaving Netflix on June 1

Directed by Martin Scorsese, this crime drama film is a three-hour, neon-drenched epic that stands as the definitive cinematic dissection of the rise and fall of mob-controlled Las Vegas. It tells the story of a gambling expert handicapper who has to oversee the operations of a casino by the Chicago outfit while tracking the many difficulties he faces in his ‘professional’ and personal life as a result of his work.

Robert De Niro plays the brilliant gambling handicapper tasked with running the Tangiers Casino, alongside a volatile, terrifying Joe Pesci and a tour-de-force, Oscar-nominated performance from Sharon Stone as the tragic, manipulative Ginger McKenna. A cornerstone of prestige, its departure will leave a notable gap in the platform’s classic crime category. So before it leaves, make sure to catch it!

4 The Lego Movie (2014)

Leaving Netflix on June 1

What could have easily been a cynical, feature-length toy commercial instead became one of the best animated features ever made. Inventive and subversively witty, The Lego Movie comes from directors Phil Lord and Christopher Miller. By utilizing a brick-by-brick visual aesthetic, the film features Lego minifigures leading a resistance movement against a tyrannical businessman.

Apart from its masterpiece animation, the film features a star-studded voice cast including Chris Pratt, Will Ferrell, Elizabeth Banks, and more. The film works because of how it crafts an unforgettable story about individuality, corporate conformity, greed, and childhood imagination. If you love a layered narrative but with a little childhood magic, then you must catch this film asap!

3 Mrs. Doubtfire (1993)

Leaving Netflix on June 1

Robin Williams delivered what arguably remains his most iconic, physically brilliant comedic performance as Daniel Hillard, a divorced actor who disguises himself as an elderly Scottish housekeeper to spend time with his children. Winner of the Academy Award for Best Makeup, this film perfectly straddles the line between comedy and family drama.

Also starring Sally Field, Pierce Brosnan, Robert Prosky, and more, it is a heartbreaking and genuinely grounded exploration of modern divorce and family structures. If you are in the mood for some drama and a moving premise wrapped in a comedic tale, then you must catch Mrs. Doubtfire before it departs the platform.

2 Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom (2018)

Leaving Netflix on June 1

Directed by J.A. Bayona, this fifth installment in the unstoppable dinosaur franchise pivots sharply midway through, shifting from a wide-scale volcanic escape on Isla Nublar into an incredibly atmospheric, gothic horror haunted-mansion thriller. Bringing back Owen Grady and Claire Dearing, along with Ian Malcolm from the original films, Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom is as entertaining as the OG Jurassic films.

Chris Pratt and Bryce Dallas Howard reunite once again to protect the cloned creatures from an underground black-market auction, culminating in a world-altering cliffhanger that changes the franchise’s ecosystem permanently. From its visuals to its darker take, the film is a chaotic ride that you must watch!

1 The Iron Claw (2023)

Leaving Netflix on June 19

Directed by Sean Durkin, The Iron Claw is a profoundly devastating, deeply moving biographical sports drama that follows the tragic curse of the Von Erich family, a dynasty of professional wrestlers who dominated the sport in the 1980s under the oppressive shadow of their demanding father.

Anchored by a career-defining, physically transformative performance from Zac Efron and an elite supporting turn by Jeremy Allen White, it balances brutal ring choreography with crushing domestic heartbreak. Its departure surely leaves a massive void for prestige drama fans. If you love prestige drama that also feels like an event in history with deep emotional storytelling, then you must watch Iron Claw before it leaves.
