‘Eddington’ Finally Sets Streaming Release Date on HBO Max

by

Ari Aster’s new film, Eddington, is now available to stream on HBO Max thanks to a deal between A24 and HBO. Though Aster is famous for his horror movies like Hereditary, Midsommar, and Beau is Afraid, Eddington is a different kind of film – a Western with hints of horror. It creates a powerful atmosphere that feels very timely and relevant to current events. Now, more people can watch it on HBO Max.

The new film Eddington will premiere on HBO Max in the U.S. on Friday, November 14th. It will also air on HBO on Saturday, November 15th at 8:00 p.m. Eastern Time. The movie stars Austin Butler, Emma Stone, Luke Grimes, Deirdre O’Connell, Micheal Ward, Amélie Hoeferle, Clifton Collins Jr., and William Belleau. Eddington centers on a tense conflict between a sheriff and a mayor in the town of Eddington, New Mexico, which quickly escalates tensions among the residents.

Set in 2020, the film Eddington taps into the anxieties and fears many people felt during that time, echoing the isolation and uncertainty of recent events. Though it looks and feels like a Western, the director also uses the atmosphere of that year to build suspense and create genuinely frightening scenes, similar to their work in the horror genre. Eddington also has a surprising comedic side, using the absurdity of the situation to offer sharp and funny observations about politics.

‘Eddington’ Joins the Growing Library of A24 films on HBO Max


A24

Like other A24 films, including recent releases such as The Legend of Ochi, Opus, and The Brutalist, Eddington is now available on HBO Max. This gives those who missed it in theaters a chance to see Aster’s newest film, which boasts a talented cast and a timely message. While critics are divided – Rotten Tomatoes gives it a 69% rating based on 275 reviews – most praise the performances, though many feel the film’s shifting tone leads to an ultimately disappointing ending.

You can judge for yourself whether Eddington lives up to the hype when it arrives on HBO Max in November, and compare it to Ari Aster’s other scary movies. If you don’t have HBO Max, you can still rent or buy the movie digitally, or purchase it on Blu-ray – all options include extra features. Eddington is a truly modern take on the Western genre and promises to be a gripping and exciting watch.
