What's available

All services in France gives you access to a solid selection of content across the major streaming platforms. On Netflix France, you can watch popular titles like Lupin, Emily in Paris, Wednesday, and Squid Game. Disney+ France includes The Mandalorian, Andor, WandaVision, and the full Marvel and Star Wars back catalogue. Prime Video France carries The Boys, Reacher, Fallout, and Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power. Apple TV+ is fully available and offers Severance, Ted Lasso, and The Morning Show.

What you're missing

Compared to the US libraries, French subscribers lose out on a noticeable chunk of content. Netflix France is missing titles like Seinfeld (available in some regions), several Studio Ghibli films, and a number of US-licensed documentaries. Hulu is completely unavailable in France, meaning you cannot access The Bear, Only Murders in the Building, or Shogun without workarounds. Peacock is also geo-blocked, so The Traitors US and live NFL games are off the table. Max (formerly HBO Max) has no official French launch, cutting you off from House of the Dragon, The Last of Us, and True Detective: Night Country.

How to access other regions

A VPN lets you change your virtual location and unlock libraries from other countries. To access the US library on any streaming platform, connect to a US server, then open the streaming app or website as normal. For UK content like BBC iPlayer, connect to a UK server instead.

  • Download and install a VPN app on your device
  • Connect to a US server to unlock American libraries
  • Connect to a UK server for BBC iPlayer and ITVX
  • Refresh the streaming app if content does not update immediately

We recommend NordVPN as the top choice. It reliably unblocks Netflix, Hulu, Max, and Peacock, and works across Smart TVs, phones, and laptops.

Netflix in France starts at approximately €5.99 per month for the Standard with Ads plan, rising to €13.49 for Standard and €19.99 for Premium. Disney+ costs around €5.99 per month.

Our recommendation

If you are streaming in France, you have strong coverage of the biggest platforms, but you are missing too much to ignore — especially Hulu and Max. Grabbing NordVPN and connecting to a US server gives you instant access to those missing libraries without needing extra subscriptions or complicated setups. It is the single most effective upgrade you can make to your streaming setup in France.
