Is ‘One Battle After Another’ Streaming on Netflix or HBO Max?

Cinephiles definitely don’t want to miss out on the new Paul Thomas Anderson movie, One Battle After Another, opening in movie theaters this weekend. Based on the rave reviews from critics, this one is shaping up to be an Oscar front-runner.

Written and directed by Anderson, One Battle After Another is based on the 1990 novel Vineland by Thomas Pynchon. Leonardo DiCaprio stars in the film as Bob Ferguson, a former revolutionary who’s forced back in the game when his baby daughter is in danger. He has a little help from his revolutionary friends, thankfully. The One Battle After Another cast also includes Teyana Taylor, Sean Penn, Benicio del Toro, Regina Hall, Chase Infiniti, and Alana Haim.

Right now, One Battle After Another holds a 98 percent positive rating on the review aggregation website Rotten Tomatoes, indicating near-universal acclaim. Best picture, anyone? You probably want to see this one in theaters ASAP, but if you’d rather wait to watch One Battle After Another at home, read on to find out when we expect to see One Battle After Another on digital and when One Battle After Another will likely be streaming on HBO Max.

Where to watch the One Battle After Another movie:

Right now, One Battle After Another is only available to watch in a movie theater when it opens in theaters on Friday, September 26. You can find a showing near you via Fandango. However, we do expect the One Battle After Another movie to be on streaming eventually.

Is Leonard DiCaprio’s One Battle After Another movie streaming on Netflix?

One Battle After Another is not streaming on Netflix and likely will not be on Netflix any time soon, due to the fact that the film is a Warner Bros. release, will have a streaming home on the Warner Bros.-owned streaming service, HBO Max. If you want to watch the new One Battle After Another movie at home, you’ll have to wait for the film to be available to buy or rent on digital platforms, or wait for it to stream on HBO Max.

If you’re new to HBO Max, you can sign up for as low as $9.99/month with ads, but an ad-free subscription will cost $16.99/month. If you subscribe via Prime Video, you can also take advantage of a seven-day free trial.

If you want to stream even more and save a few bucks a month while you’re at it, we recommend subscribing to one of the discounted Disney+ Bundles with Hulu and HBO Max. With ads, the bundle costs $16.99/month and without ads, $29.99/month.

When will the One Battle After Another movie be streaming on HBO’s Max?

All the new WB theatrical movies end up streaming on Max, though the wait period has varied by title. Sinners, for example, was released on PVOD about a month-and-a-half after opening in theaters, and began streaming on HBO Max about two-and-a-half months after it was released in theaters. If One Battle After Another follows a similar release pattern, you may see the movie on digital around mid-November 2025, and streaming on HBO Max around mid-December 2025.

But that’s pure speculation. The Warner Bros. home releases have varied by title. If you want to see One Battle After Another, your best is to catch the movie in theaters.
