Is the ‘Red One’ Movie Streaming on Netflix or Amazon Prime Video?

It may only be November, but Christmas is already in the air in Hollywood. And you can celebrate the upcoming holiday with the new, big, fun star-studded holiday blockbuster, Red One, which is opening in theaters this weekend.

Directed by Jake Kasdan (who is also the director behind the rebooted Jumanji movies), with a screenplay by Chris Morgan, Red One stars Dwayne Johnson as the head of security for Santa Claus (played by J.K. Simmons). Santa’s code name? The red one. It all makes sense! The Rock is ready to retire from this high-stress career, but first he has one more job: Prevent a nefarious hacker (played by Chris Evans) from ruining Christmas.

Also starring Lucy Liu, Kiernan Shipka, Bonnie Hunt, Nick Kroll, Kristofer Hivju, Wesley Kimmel, the Red One promises a fun, action-packed, holiday-themed adventure. Critics have not been kind so far—the film currently has a tk rating on the review aggregation website, Rotten Tomatoes—but we have a feeling that won’t stop people from seeing the movie.

Here’s what you need to know about where to watch the Red One movie, and when to expect to see the Red One movie on streaming.

Where to watch the Red One movie:

For now, Red One will only available to watch in a movie theater, when it opens in the U.S. on Friday, November 15. You can find a showing near you via Fandango. Red One is not yet available to watch online or on streaming.

Is Red One streaming on Netflix?

Red One is not streaming on Netflix and likely will not be on Netflix any time soon, due to the fact that the film is not a Netflix movie. Red One is an MGM movie, and therefore will likely go to streaming on MGM+, the premium channel previously known as Epix. Currently, MGM+ costs $5.99 a month, and there is a seven-day free trial.

Will the Red One movie be streaming on Amazon Prime Video?

You will be able to purchase Red One on Amazon Prime Video when the movie becomes available to buy and rent on digital, likely in about a month. But you will have to wait to be able to stream Red One on Prime Video free with a Prime subscription. Red One is an MGM movie, and Amazon has owned MGM since the 2022 acquisition. The MGM movies have been streaming on Prime—albeit slowly. First, the movies go to MGM+, before they become available free on Prime.

Challengers, for example, was an MGM movie that released on digital after one month in theaters, but did not stream on Amazon Prime until five months after it was released in theaters. If Red One follows a similar release pattern, you might see Red One on digital around December 2024, and streaming free on Amazon Prime around late April 2025.

But this is all speculation. If you want to watch Red One right away, you can go see the movie in theaters.
