Wild Wild West Leaves Paramount+ in October 2026
The 1999 Will Smith and Barry Sonnenfeld Western ends its streaming run on Paramount+ in October 2026 after years on the service.
Wild Wild West, the 1999 Western starring Will Smith and directed by Barry Sonnenfeld, is leaving Paramount+ in October 2026. The film's departure ends its availability on the streaming service, according to Collider.
The movie was released in 1999 and reunited Smith with Sonnenfeld, who had directed him in Men in Black two years earlier.
Smith later turned down several other high-profile roles, including the lead in Quentin Tarantino's Django Unchained and the part of Neo in The Matrix, which he passed on because he felt the Wachowskis were too inexperienced.
Separately, The Lone Ranger, a big-screen adaptation of the Western television series starring Johnny Depp, was a critical and commercial flop.
