Netflix, the streaming giant that has redefined how we consume everything from true crime obsessions to rom-coms we secretly binge at 3 a.m., is the ultimate mood curator for the modern couch potato. But when it comes to high-octane nostalgia, the question burns hotter than a turbo engine on a drag strip: Is Angelina Jolie’s adrenaline-fueled 2000 classic Gone in 60 Seconds revving on Netflix’s fast lane or parked somewhere else? 

As streaming platforms race for your eyeballs, nostalgia’s horsepower burns steadily, whether on Netflix or elsewhere, the thrill of the chase never loses speed.

Believe it or not, Gone in 60 Seconds is currently taking a joyride away from Netflix’s dashboard. You will find Angelina Jolie’s legendary car-thief swagger on Hulu, with FlixPatrol adding Paramount+ and Peacock to the chase. So, if you were ready for that 50-car-stealing thrill on Netflix, prepare for a different streaming detour, because nostalgia never sticks to just one driveway. 

Retired master thief Memphis faces the impossible task of stealing 50 luxury cars in just 72 hours to save his brother from a ruthless gangster. For some, this sounds like a wild weekend; for others, a lifetime sentence. The final prize, a 1967 Shelby GT500 named Eleanor, is less a car and more an obsession, a legendary crush that makes you rethink everything as engines roar behind it.

While Memphis races the clock stealing cars, Netflix plays its own game, offering Angelina Jolie’s other hits but keeping Gone in 60 Seconds on a mysterious streaming detour.

Angelina Jolie’s Netflix catalogue plays favorites with hits and misses

Netflix does have Angelina Jolie’s back with titles like First They Killed My Father and Wanted, but Gone in 60 Seconds has no pit stop there. Classics like Girl, Interrupted and By the Sea have danced on and off the platform, making Netflix a bit like a fickle ex with a great taste in movies, but a selective memory for the fastest rides.
