How to watch Challengers

The only way to watch Challengers for now is to head to theaters, or rent the movie on premium digital platforms, like Amazon Prime Video.

Guadagnino knows what he’s doing when it comes to putting tennis on film. The matches are played at both breakneck speed and in agonizing slow-motion. Everything is sensual, including the sport itself. Needless to say, it deserves to be seen on the biggest screen possible.

Is Challengers on streaming?

No, Challengers isn’t streaming, and won’t be for a few months at least.

For now, it’s only available to rent on Amazon Prime Video or Apple TV+ for $19.99.

If you were hoping to catch Challengers on streaming services as part of a subscription, you’ll have to wait a few months. The best way to see it is in theaters, on the big screen. If it performs well at the box office, this is where it’ll stay well into the summer.

Once it lands on streaming, it’s likely that it’ll go to Max, as this is where the majority of Warner Bros. movies end up. That said, the movie is also produced by Amazon MGM Studios, so it could end up on Prime Video in the future, too.
