Is the musical sequel Sing 2 streaming or in theaters? A complete guide to how to watch the new film, starring Taron Egerton, Scarlett Johansson and Bono.
Five years after it’s prequel, “Sing 2” finally arrives in theaters just in time for Christmas. The first “Sing” opened in theaters in 2016, and the onset of the COVID pandemic delayed its sequel from December 25,2020 to fill a slot left open by the corresponding pushback of movie musical adaptation “Wicked.” “Sing 2” was originally slated for release on Christmas Day of 2020, but the movie was officially pushed back before COVID was a concern, when it was delayed to July 2, 2021. In April of 2020, Universal further delayed “Sing 2” to its current set release date, in hopes of making room for Illumination’s other big project, “Minions: The Rise of Gru,” but that movie was eventually delayed also due to obstacles in production. But now “Sing 2” is finally here, and families everywhere may be wondering how to watch the sequel. Is it streaming or in theaters? Will it be streaming? We’ve got your answers below. “Sing 2” will not be available for streaming the day it releases in theaters. After making its cinematic run at the end of 2021, the film could potentially stream on Peacock — starting in 2022, all Universal Pictures releases will be streaming on Peacock 45 days after they hit theater. That has not been the case for Universal’s 2021 releases, however, and thus far only “Halloween Kills” was released on Peacock and in theaters on the same day. Yes, starting on Dec.22 “Sing 2” will be playing in movie theaters nationwide. The hustling Buster Moon, a dreamer of a koala with grand plans for his local theater, returns in this anticipated sequel film, only this time the stakes are higher, the competition fiercer, and the soundtrack is even more robust.
