Is the Nate Bargatze’s ‘The Breadwinner’ Movie Streaming on Netflix or Amazon Prime Video?

With his new movie The Breadwinner, which opens in theaters this weekend, comedian Nate Bargatze is asking the question on the minds of everyone who has time-traveled from the 1950s: Can men take care of children?! I guess we’ll find out by watching this new comedy co-written by Bargatze and Dan Lagana, and directed by Eric Appel. Bargatze stars in the film as Nate Wilcox, a father of three girls whose wife Katie (Mandy Moore) lands a deal on Shark Tank. That means Mom is out of town for an extended period of time, leaving Nate to be a stay-at-home dad with the kids.

The horror! Also starring Colin Jost, Zach Cherry, Martin Herlihy, Kumail Nanjiani, and Will Forte, The Breadwinner first premiered in the Philippines yesterday. Reviews from critics have not been favorable so far, based on the review aggregation website Rotten Tomatoes, but we know that fans of Nate Bargatze will want to see the movie for themselves.

That said, if you’d rather wait to watch the movie at home, rather than in theaters, then read on to find out where and when we expect to be able to watch The Breadwinner 2026 movie on streaming. (Not to be confused with the Oscar-nominated 2017 animated film about Afghanistan.) Where to watch Nate Bargatze’s The Breadwinner movie: The Breadwinner will only be available to watch in a movie theater, when it opens in the U.S. nationwide on Friday, May 29. You can find a showing near you via Fandango. The Breadwinner is not yet available to watch online or on streaming. Is The Breadwinner 2026 movie streaming on Netflix or Amazon Prime Video?

The Breadwinner 2026 is not currently streaming on Netflix or Prime Video, because the movie is being released in theaters, only. Right now, the only way to watch The Breadwinner is in a movie theater.

That said, because The Breadwinner is a Sony movie, we do expect to see it streaming on Netflix eventually. You will be able to purchase The Breadwinner on Prime Video eventually, when the movie becomes available to buy and rent on digital, but you will not be able to stream The Breadwinner 2026 on Prime Video free with a Prime subscription any time soon. If you want to watch the The Breadwinner 2026 movie at home, you’ll have to wait for the film to be available to buy or rent on digital platforms, or wait for it to stream on Netflix. Netflix offers three subscription plans to fit your streaming needs.

The plans start at $7.99/month for standard with ads and go up to $24.99/month for unlimited ad-free streaming in up to 4K UHD quality. When will The Breadwinner 2026 movie be streaming on Netflix? The Breadwinner will likely be on Netflix sometime in the spring of 2026. Netflix has a deal with Sony Pictures that gives the streamer the rights to the Sony movies in the “Pay 1” window, meaning the first streaming window after the film’s home media release.

One recent Sony movie, GOAT, came to Netflix about three months after opening in theaters. If The Breadwinner follows this same release pattern, you can expect The Breadwinner to stream on Netflix around late August 2026, aka three months after the movie opened in theaters.

That said, other Sony movies have taken four months to stream on Netflix, so you may have to wait until late September. In the meantime, you can go watch the Nate Bargatze movie The Breadwinner in theaters.
