The Barbie movie (2023) looks to be one of the strangest movies released this year, as Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling fill the plastic shoes of Barbie and Ken for an adventure that somehow transports them from Barbieland to the real world. But when will you be able to watch Barbie via streaming services?
Will Barbie be available to watch via streaming on HBO Max?
Barbie will be available to watch exclusively in theaters on July 21, 2023, though a HBO Max streaming date may follow this window of exclusivity.
Warner Bros. is distributing the Barbie movie, and it owns the Max (formerly HBO Max) streaming service. It has released a number of movies exclusively on the streaming service, and the Barbie movie could follow suit.
Will Barbie be available to watch via streaming on Netflix?
There are currently no official plans to release the Barbie movie on Netflix after its July 21 release date, though this could change in the future.
There are several Barbie movies already available to watch on Netflix including Barbie Dreamhouse Adventures, Barbie Dolphin Magic, and Barbie Mermaid Power (via GameRevolution). While the 2023 Barbie movie is a bigger deal than these previous releases, this established partnership could continue in the future.
Will Barbie be available to watch via streaming on Amazon Prime Video?
The Barbie movie could eventually be available to watch on Prime Video, though it will likely be a paid digital release rather than being included with an Amazon Prime subscription.
This means that rather than watching the movie as part of an existing subscription fee, you may have to pay money to rent out the movie digitally on Amazon. However, neither Warner Bros. nor Amazon has discussed whether or not this will be the case.
