Is ‘Ambulance’ on HBO Max or Netflix? When Will the Michael Bay Movie Be Streaming?

Love them or hate them, there’s nothing quite like a Michael Bay movie. The latest action thriller from the Transformers director is Ambulance, and it’s a remake of a 2005 Danish movie about first-responders who are taken hostage when their ambulance is hijacked.

In the American remake, Jake Gyllenhaal stars as a desperate veteran named Danny who recruits his adopted brother Will (Yahya Abdul-Mateen II) to help him carry out a robbery in order to get the money he needs for his wife’s surgery. When the bank robbery goes wrong, the brothers make an escape by hijacking an ambulance and holding the EMT worker on board, played by Eiza González, hostage, while the authorities chase them down.

Essentially, this movie is going to be one, long Michael Bay-directed car chase. If that sounds like a movie you don’t want to miss, read on to find out how to watch Ambulance and when to expect Ambulance on streaming.

WHERE TO WATCH AMBULANCE:

For now, the only way to watch Ambulance is to go to a movie theater. Ambulance will open in theaters in the U.S on April 8, 2022. You can find tickets at a theater near you here.

After the movie’s theatrical run, you will be able to stream Ambulance on Peacock, the NBC Universal streaming service. You’ll also be able to rent Ambulance on digital platforms like Amazon Prime, iTunes, YouTube, Google Play, and more.

WILL AMBULANCE BE ON HBO MAX?

No. Ambulance is a Universal Pictures movie, not a Warner Bros. movie, and therefore will not be streaming on HBO Max when it opens in theaters. Also, HBO Max will no longer be streaming theatrical movies in 2022. Last year, Warner Media opted to simultaneously release its theatrical slate on streaming, meaning HBO Max subscribers could watch movies like Matrix Resurrections at home. This year, however, Warner Bros. theatrical movies will have a 45-day theaters-only run before moving to HBO Max.

IS AMBULANCE ON NETFLIX?

No. Ambulance is not on Netflix, and, because it’s going to Peacock, it likely will not be on Netflix any time soon. Sorry!

WHEN WILL AMBULANCE BE STREAMING? WHEN WILL AMUBLANCE BE ON PEACOCK?

While there is not an official Peacock release date for Ambulance, we can expect Ambulance to be on the streaming service after 45 days in theaters. Therefore, you should see Ambulance on Peacock around late May or early June 2022. This is because, starting with the 2022 film slate, Universal movies will come to Peacock Premium as soon as 45 days after opening in theaters.

You will also be able to rent Ambulance on VOD, but it’s less clear when that will be. Recent Universal movies No Time To Die and The 355 both landed on VOD about one month after opening in theaters. If Ambulance follows a similar pattern, you can expect to be able to rent the movie for $20 on VOD in early May 2022.

That said, other Universal movies, like the M. Night Shyamalan thriller Old, took over two months to release on digital, so take this estimate with a grain of salt

All this is to say: We don’t know when Ambulance will be on VOD. Stay tuned for more information.
