Is Framing Britney Spears on Netflix?

Fans and celebrities have been sharing their thoughts about the film and Britney on social media for a few days now. The documentary has created a growing interest. Is it available on Netflix? The answer is no, Framing Britney Spears is not available on the streaming giant.

The movie is a part of a production from The New York Times. It airs on FX and Hulu and will be available only on those platforms. It is unlikely that Netflix will stream the documentary as The Walt Disney Company owns both FX and Hulu. The movie was released on February 5, 2021, in the US. It is one standalone episode in The New York Times Presents series. If one is not a Hulu subscriber, they can sign up to get a free 7-day trial. The documentary is over one hour long.

However, Framing Britney Spears is not currently available to stream in the UK. According to PopSugar, it will air in the UK sometime in Spring 2021. As Hulu and FX are both parts of the wider Walt Disney Company, it could also land on Disney+ for UK viewers. Certain parts of the documentary are shared on YouTube and social media but currently, no service in the UK is streaming the documentary entirely.
