Parker Finn has given us not one but two brilliant Smile outings, a storyline tough to cope with. Unfortunately, if you are a big fan of his 2022 work, you need to hurry and rewatch it if you haven’t already. The horror entry is leaving Netflix this month, leaving you with very few days at hand to enjoy this psychological story starring Sosie Bacon and others.
According to Netflix Life, the streaming service will lose one of its scariest titles soon. Per the outlet, Netflix has already issued a removal notice, making things official. The movie will no longer be available on Netflix from Friday, November 14. That means you have until November 13 to enjoy the chills of this disturbing and mind-bending entry.
The movie is directed by Parker Finn and even has a sequel that stars some of the most talented names in the list of upcoming actors in Hollywood, including Naomi Scott, Ray Nicholson, and others.
Where Will Smile Be Available After Netflix?
Just in case you are late to reach the play button on the night of November 13, we have got you covered. Smile is also available to stream on Amazon Prime Video, where you can rent it for $3.99. Interestingly, Amazon and Netflix are not the only two streaming platforms where you can have your spine feeling the shivering senses, as you watch the first entry of Smile.

Smile 3 may be in the works, as a listing had revealed the production date, which was supposed to enter. As per Film Stories, Smile 3 was supposed to enter production in 2025. It is crucial to know that the second entry in the Smile franchise had earned significantly less than what was previously expected. As per the outlet, the sequel made $70 million less than what was being hoped for originally.
However, the movie still made a profit, hinting at a third entry in the series. Meanwhile, it is not only Film Stories that teased at a third Smile movie, but the director Finn as well. Talking to Collider back in October 2024, Finn mentioned,
Well, I will say this, I think there are a lot of interesting roads that any future Smile could go down. For me, I love all the stuff that goes bump in the night, and all the really frightening things of the big concept of Smile and the Smiler.
Moreover, if you have watched the second entry, it sets up a third installment already. Let us know what you feel about a third outing in the Smile franchise in the comments below.
