The NBCUniversal streamer has spent the past few weeks <a href=\"https:\/\/comicbook.com\/tv-shows\/news\/everything-coming-to-peacock-in-december-2025\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">adding plenty of great TV shows and movies to its catalog<\/a>, and as it prepares to roll out other additions like all 15 seasons of Supernatural and Despicable Me 4, a hit animated movie is about to get the boot.<\/p>\n<p>Illumination\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/comicbook.com\/tag\/sing-2\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Sing 2<\/a> is about to leave Peacock. The movie, a follow-up to 2016\u2019s Sing, follows beloved koala Buster Moon and his all-star animal performers as they take their show to the glittering entertainment capital of the world, Redshore City. But the dazzling lights and big stage aren\u2019t all they\u2019re cracked up to be, and Buster Moon must get a reclusive rock legend to perform with them all while facing pressure from a demanding entertainment tycoon. Peacock hasn\u2019t announced an exact departure date for Sing 2, but the movie is currently listed in the streamer\u2019s \u201cleaving Peacock soon\u201d section, which typically means listed titles will depart by the end of the current month.<\/p>\n<p>Sing 2 Is Sing 1 on a Grander Scale<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\tPlay video<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/1766338150_538_hqdefault.jpg\" alt=\"Play\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Sing 2 wasn\u2019t as big of a commercial success as Sing 1, earning about $408 million worldwide compared to the original\u2019s massive $634 million box office haul, but it swept the original when it came to reception. While Sing 1 earned a respectable 71% critic score and 73% audience rating on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rottentomatoes.com\/m\/sing_2016\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Rotten Tomatoes<\/a>, its predecessor outperformed it with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rottentomatoes.com\/m\/sing_2\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">a 72% critic score<\/a> and \u201cVerified Hot\u201d and near-perfect 98% audience rating.<\/p>\n<p>The movie brought all that fans loved about the first, including a fun story filled with heart and charm and catchy tunes, but with a much grander scale. The movie centers itself on a higher-stakes plot as it moves from a local theater competition to the massive stage of the Crystal Tower Theater in Redshore City, delivering higher pressure and more intense conflict, vibrant production numbers, and a fantastic soundtrack with hits from artists like Elton John and The Weeknd. The movie explodes with vibrant colors and beautiful set designs that make the city and performances pop and expands its cast with great additions like Bono, Pharrell Williams, and Tori Kelly.<\/p>\n<p>Sing 2 is feel-good entertainment that the entire family can enjoy and was so successful that a third movie has been ordered. Sing 3 was announced to be \u201cdeep in development\u201d back in April 2023, Illumination Entertainment founder Chris Meledandri confirmed to <a href=\"https:\/\/variety.com\/2023\/film\/news\/shrek-5-donkey-spinoff-secret-life-of-pets-sing-sequels-1235571967\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Variety<\/a>. Further details, including a plot and release date, haven\u2019t been announced, but Meledandri did say that the upcoming film \u201cwill involve characters from the original cast, but it will take us into a new world.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Where to Stream Sing 2 After It Leaves Peacock?<\/p>\n<p>Sing 2 currently only streams on Peacock, meaning that when it departs the NBCUniversal streamer, it may leave streaming altogether. The movie isn\u2019t currently <a href=\"https:\/\/comicbook.com\/movies\/news\/everything-coming-to-netflix-hbo-max-other-streaming-services-in-december-2025\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">scheduled to join a rival platform this December<\/a>, but it could move to a different streaming service in January or sometime after that. In the meantime, Sing 2 is still available to stream on Peacock for the time being and is also available to rent or purchase online.<\/p>\n<p>What do you think?
