The Soap2Day site, one of the most popular illegal streaming sites on the web, closed its doors on Monday, June 19. The closure of the website, which offers content from series and movies illegally -some very recent, such as the movie John Wick 4- was quite sudden.
The team behind the website parted ways with a simple message: “Hey guys, we have decided to shut down Soap2Day for good. We are so sorry. Goodbye.”

With 108 million views per month, it’s hard to imagine it being shut down due to lack of popularity, says illegal streaming site TorrentFreak. Among illegal streaming sites, Soap2Day was easily one of the most popular.
The site had been denounced to the government, in October 2022, by the American Hollywood film industry, but also shortly after to the authorities in the United Kingdom, where five men have just been sentenced to thirty years in prison after managing one of the largest illegal broadcast channels.
The Soap2Day reports followed a rather impressive increase in site traffic, due to the consolidation of all the Soap2Day “satellite” sites. In fact, illegal streaming sites usually have several parallel sites to avoid too many visitors on a single site.
Many mirror sites have already sprung up, taking advantage of the shutdown, but nothing indicates that it is the old team behind Soap2Day.
