The award season is kicking into high gear and one of the Oscar front-runners, Will Smith, is back in a big way in the film King Richard. The big question of the week is, will it be available on the small screen, big screen, or both? Here’s what you need to know about the King Richard movie.
It was 2015, the last time Will Smith was in the Oscar conversation and it was for his performance in Concussion. Although the performance was very good, it still wasn’t one of Smith’s best and since we have seen him do some good work in Aladdin, Suicide Squad and more recently Bad Boys for Life.

Smith plays Richard Williams, the father of Venus and Serena Williams. We know this is following along the early stages of their lives, how he groomed them, the obstacles they faced and how they became global icons.
The early reports have been really kind to not only Smith but also to the entire cast. From the young girls that play the Williams sisters Saniyya Sidney and Demi Singleton to Aunjanue Ellis, who plays Brandi, their mother to Jon Bernthal, who plays Rick Macci, their tennis coach. We could be in for a real treat.
When is the ‘King Richard’ release date?
King Richard is set to arrive for movie fans on Nov. 19 across the globe, serving as a perfect potential family movie watch around the Thanksgiving holiday for U.S. audiences or just in general for the rest of the world.
That Nov. 19 release date includes both theaters and a day-and-date streaming release on the HBO Max platform. As a Warner Bros. 2021 movie, King Richard is getting the 31-day streaming play on HBO Max, allowing viewers to watch it from home until about Dec. 20; it will eventually come back to HBO Max but at an as yet unspecified date.
Can you stream King Richard online from home?
Yes, you can check out the latest from Will Smith in the confines of your house as long as you have an HBO Max subscription. The biopic will be available on November 19, 2021, at the same time it hits theaters.

For those who want to watch King Richard from the comfort of their couch, you will need to make sure that you are signed up for the $14.99 per month plan of HBO Max. King Richard will not be available on any other platform but HBO Max for its limited 31-day window and even HBO Max subscribers that just have the $9.99 plan will not be able to watch the film (they will when it returns to the streaming service in the future). However, if you are a subscriber to the $14.99 HBO Max plan, then you will be able to watch King Richard at no additional cost and on any device that can support HBO Max, be it your TV, mobile device, tablet or computer.
Will King Richard Be on Netflix?
Currently, there is no confirmation as to whether or not King Richard will be on Netflix, but as no other part of the Ghostbusters franchise has made it to the popular streaming service, our guess is that this won’t be the case.
Will King Richard Be on Amazon Prime Video?
While the Ghostbusters movies and tv series aren’t free on Amazon Prime Video, you can rent or purchase them. To give you a general idea, the 1984 original can be rented at $3.99 or bought at $7.99. This is a good indication that King Richard will get the same treatment eventually.
Will King Richard Be on Disney Plus?
Disney Plus is your go-to if you’re looking to stream any Disney film as well as anything from Pixar, the Avengers franchise, the Star Wars Empire, and so on. The Ghostbusters franchise doesn’t belong to Disney so we don’t expect Afterlife to make it to Disney Plus, unfortunately.
Will King Richard Be on HBO Max?
Due to a Warner Bros. strategy during Covid, King Richard might be on HBO Max exclusively for just one month before moving to movie theaters only. This is not yet confirmed yet, and it might as well stop if things are relatively normal by then, but if you’re an HBO Max subscriber, you might want to watch out for that.
