The new Rami Malek movie The Amateur opens in movie theaters weekend, starring the Oscar-winning actor as a behind-the-scenes spy who is ready to go in front of the curtain, for the sake of avenging his murdered wife.
Directed by James Hawes, with a screenplay by Ken Nolan and Gary Spinelli, The Amateur is based on the 1981 novel of the same name by spy novelist Robert Littell. Nothing hits quite like a ’80s spy story! Set in the modern day, this version of The Amateur stars Malek as a CIA cryptographer named Charles Heller, who decides to go rogue on a field mission when the agency fails to bring about justice for a London terrorist attack that kills his wife. When will the bad guys learn to stop killing wives?
Also starring Rachel Brosnahan, Caitríona Balfe, Jon Bernthal, Michael Stuhlbarg, Holt McCallany, Julianne Nicholson, Adrian Martinez, Danny Sapani, and Laurence Fishburne, The Amateur promise fast-paced, thrilling action. Read on for all the information on where to watch The Amateur movie and when we expect to see The Amateur movie on streaming.
Where to watch Rami Malek’s The Amateur movie:
For now, The Amateur will only available to watch in a movie theater, when it opens in theaters in the U.S. on Friday, April 11. You can find a showing near you via Fandango. The Amateur is not yet available to watch online or on streaming.
Is The Amateur movie streaming on Netflix or Amazon Prime?
The Amateur is not streaming on Netflix right now. That said, The Amateur is a 20th Century Studios release, a studio owned by Disney, and therefore will likely go on to stream on one of the Disney-owned streamers, rather than on Netflix.
You will be able to purchase The Amateur on Amazon Prime Video eventually, when the movie becomes available to buy and rent on digital, but you will not be able to stream The Amateur on Prime Video free with a Prime subscription any time soon, because it is not a Prime original movie. If you want to watch The Amateur movie at home, you’ll have to wait for the film to be available to buy or rent on digital platforms.
Where will The Amateur movie be streaming?
The Amateur will likely stream on Hulu and Disney+ eventually. The Amateur is a 20th Century movie, a production company that has been owned by Disney since 2017. So you may eventually see The Amateur stream on Disney+, or on the Disney-owned streamer, Hulu—or both. However, because The Amateur is a PG-13 movie for adults, and because Disney+ is geared toward children, our guess would be that The Amateur will come to Hulu only.
When will The Amateur movie be streaming on Hulu?
The Amateur Hulu streaming release date has not yet been announced, but we can make an educated guess as to when The Amateur will stream on Hulu based on previous releases from 20th Century.
Alien: Romulus, another 20th Century movie, was released on Hulu in the U.S. on November 21, a little over three months after opening in theaters. If The Amateur follows a similar release pattern, the movie might stream on Hulu and Disney+ around mid-July 2025—in other words, a little over three months after the movie opened in theaters.
But this is all speculation. If you want to see The Amateur movie ASAP, you can go watch the movie in theaters.
