The likely answer is yes, although we don’t have details, and it’s not anytime soon.
Netflix in various regions receives new movies from Sony promptly, though neither Netflix nor Sony promote any deals as we know for the US.
Netflix Canada and the UK receive movies from Sony approximately 2 years after their theatrical release. This also applies to regions such as Belgium, Greece, Japan, Poland, Spain, Sweden, and South Africa.
That would mean that Netflix in these regions will see the king woman added sometime in 2024.
Other regions will have to wait even longer.
