About Taken

"Taken" is available on Netflix in four countries: the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, and Morocco. That represents a narrow footprint, as the 2008 action-thriller is tracked across 56 countries total, meaning most Netflix regions do not carry it. Outside those four Middle Eastern and North African markets, viewers need to look elsewhere. In the United Kingdom, the film streams on Disney Plus. In Canada, it is available on both Disney Plus and Crave. For viewers in Germany, it can be found on Amazon Prime Video as well as Disney Plus. If you are outside the listed Netflix territories, these alternative platforms are your primary options, and you should check their local availability directly.

Availability re-verified 2026-08-15 against licensed streaming data.

Bryan Mills, a former government operative, is trying to reconnect with his teenage daughter Kim. After reluctantly agreeing with his ex-wife to let Kim go to Paris on vacation with a friend, his worst nightmare comes true. While on the phone with his daughter shortly after she arrives in Paris, she and her friend are abducted by a gang of human traffickers. Working against the clock, Bryan relies on his extensive training and skills to track down the ruthless gang that abducted her and launch a one-man war to rescue his daughter.
