The Thing (2011) is currently included with Peacock in the United States as of October 25, 2026. Peacock maintains an active exact-title page and lists the film in its current sci-fi horror collection; Netflix's exact page says the title is unavailable, so Netflix is not counted as a provider.
Matthijs van Heijningen Jr.'s film is a prelude to John Carpenter's 1982 story, following paleontologist Kate Lloyd into an Antarctic outpost where a recovered organism can imitate its victims. Mary Elizabeth Winstead leads the cast with Joel Edgerton, Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje, Ulrich Thomsen and Eric Christian Olsen.
