Is ‘The Creator’ Streaming on Netflix, Amazon Prime Video or HBO Max?

John David Washington and Gemma Chan star in the latest sci-fi action thriller, The Creator, which is coming to theaters this week. Luckily, we have you covered on everything you need to know about this new flick!

The film is set during a future war between humans and artificial intelligence in which ex-special forces agent Joshua (Washington) must hunt down and kill the Creator, who holds a weapon strong enough to end both the war and mankind.

However, Joshua soon learns that the weapon he’s supposed to destroy is “an AI in the form of a young child,” per the longline, which certainly complicates things.

So, where can you watch The Creator? Will it be on Netflix? What about Max?

Here’s everything we know about the upcoming movie:

WHERE TO WATCH THE CREATOR:

UPDATE 11/21/23: The Creator officially became available to rent or purchase on digital platforms like like Vudu, Apple, YouTube and Amazon on Tuesday, Nov. 14. Plus, it will be released on 4k Ultra HD Blu-ray, Blu-ray and DVD on Tuesday, Dec. 12.

WHEN WILL THE CREATOR BE ON STREAMING? WILL THE CREATOR BE ON HULU?

Since The Creator is being distributed by 20th Century Studios, it will eventually make its way to either Disney+ or Hulu. However, it’s more likely that it will stream on the latter since that’s where most of the company’s more adult content lands.

While a streaming release date has not yet been announced, we can make a guess based on The Boogeyman — which came to Hulu about four months after debuting in theaters. If The Creator follows the same trajectory, you might be able to watch it from the comfort of your home by late January 2024.

UPDATE 12/21/23: The Creator began streaming on Hulu on Wednesday, Dec. 20.

WILL THE CREATOR BE ON PRIME VIDEO?

Yes, The Creator will eventually become available to rent or purchase on Prime Video. We’re still waiting for an official digital release date — however, The Boogeyman landed on the platform about 90 days after it premiered in theaters. If The Creator follows the same trajectory, you might be able to watch from the comfort of your home as early as mid-December 2023.

UPDATE 11/21/23: The Creator came to Prime Video on Tuesday, Nov. 14.

WILL THE CREATOR BE ON MAX?

No, The Creator will not be on Max since it’s not a Warner Bros. movie. While the platform — previously known as HBO Max — previously had streaming rights to some 20th Century Studios films, their deal expired at the end of 2022.

WILL THE CREATOR BE ON NETFLIX?

No, The Creator will not be on Netflix — at least not any time soon. While it’s possible the film may come to the streamer at some point in the future, you’ll just have to head out to a movie theater or wait for it to become available on streaming.
