The 2017 film Wonder, starring Julia Roberts and Owen Wilson, is scheduled to leave Netflix on Sunday, 1 March. The family favourite, which follows a young boy with Treacher Collins syndrome, has received widespread acclaim and holds an 86% rating on Rotten Tomatoes.
The story centres on Auggie Pullman, played by Jacob Tremblay, who enters mainstream school for the first time after being homeschooled due to his facial differences. The film explores themes of kindness and acceptance as Auggie becomes an unexpected hero to his classmates.
Fans have taken to IMDb to express their love for the film, with one describing it as a 'perfect family movie' that made them laugh and cry. Another viewer called it 'a great example of kindness and respect for all ages'. The film is based on the novel by RJ Palacio, who was inspired to write it after an encounter with a child with a craniofacial disorder.
As the removal date approaches, Netflix viewers have limited time to watch the film, which has been praised as 'fantastically heartwarming' and one of the best movies of the decade. The film features a cast including Noah Jupe and has been hailed for its uplifting message.
