Is the ‘Spinal Tap 2’ Movie ‘Spinal Tap II: The End Continues’ Streaming on Netflix or Amazon Prime?

In 1984, Rob Reiner, Christopher Guest, Michael McKean, and Harry Shearer turned up to 11 in This Is Spinal Tap, the mockumentary about a fake heavy metal band, which went on to become a cult classic comedy.

Now, over 40 years later, Reiner and his cast are reuniting for a sequel, Spinal Tap II: The End Continues, which opens in theaters this weekend. Guest, McKean, and Shearer are all back to reprise their roles, as Spinal Tap, which is reuniting after 15 years for one last big show. What could go wrong?

This time around, Spinal Tap has the advantage of being a beloved film, which means the sequel was able to land some big name cameos, including, reportedly, Paul McCartney, Elton John, Garth Brooks, Questlove, Trisha Yearwood, Chad Smith, and Lars Ulrich.

Is the Spinal Tap 2 movie streaming on Netflix or Prime Video?

Spinal Tap II: The End Continues is not streaming on Netflix or Prime Video right now. While it’s possible Spinal Tap II: The End Continues may stream on Netflix someday, it won’t be until after the theatrical run and digital release of the movie. Spinal Tap II: The End Continues is not a Netflix original—it’s an independent film being distributed by Bleecker Street in the U.S. Never say never, but most of the recent Bleecker Street movies have not gone on to stream on Netflix. The first Spinal Tap movie is also not streaming on Netflix, though it has streamed on Netflix in years past.

You will be able to purchase Spinal Tap II: The End Continues on Prime Video eventually, when the movie becomes available to buy and rent on digital, but you will not be able to stream Spinal Tap II: The End Continues on Prime Video free with a Prime subscription any time soon, because it is not a Prime original movie.

Spinal Tap II: The End Continues‘ digital release date has not yet been announced. However, we can make an educated guess as to when we might see Spinal Tap II: The End Continues on video-on-demand, based on the digital release of previous films from this studio, Bleecker Street.

Another Bleecker Street movie, Relay, will release on digital platforms next week, about one month after opening in theaters. If Spinal Tap II: The End Continues follows a similar pattern, you might see Spinal Tap II: The End Continues on video-on-demand around mid-October 2025.
