Peacock streaming versus digital purchase or rental
These are different ways to watch. Peacock is the announced streaming home for subscribers, while digital purchase or rental is a transaction through a digital retailer. Universal says a digital purchase provides “a limited license to access the content”; the retailer’s terms govern the details. Check your retailer for its rental terms and current availability.

The Peacock date is the date NBCUniversal announced for its service, not a confirmed launch date for other territories. Viewers outside the relevant Peacock market should check local services and retailers rather than assume the same availability.
Is the Grand Finale cast special the same film?
No. Downton Abbey Celebrates the Grand Finale is a separate one-hour cast special, not the feature film. NBCUniversal said it aired on NBC on September 10, 2025, and streamed on Peacock the following day—before the movie’s September 12 theatrical release. See NBCUniversal’s special announcement.
