The most likely explanation involves licensing complexities. Kung Fu Hustle was a co-production between Hong Kong's Star Overseas and Mainland Chinese companies, with distribution handled by Columbia Pictures (now Sony Pictures) in North America. While Sony holds the rights to the English dub for physical media distribution, streaming rights may have been negotiated separately, with Netflix and other platforms acquiring only the original Cantonese version.

This scarcity has turned the dub into a sought-after collector's item among fans. The reason for its rarity is a subject of debate. Some speculate that streaming services choose not to carry it due to its more racy and offensive dialogue compared to the subtitled version.
