Film director M. Night Shyamalan has a large following when it comes to horror movie fans, and many Netflix subscribers are eager to know if his new film Old is available to terrify viewers on the streaming service.

Shyamalan has been known for some serious duds like The Happening, The Lady in the Water, The Last Airbender and After Earth. But there is no denying his hits, which include The Village, Split, The Sixth Sense, Signs, and hopefully the 2021 feature Old will be added to the list when it is all said and done.

The feature is inspired by the Swiss graphic novel titled Sandcastle by Frederik Peters and Pierre Oscar Levy. The story follows a happy family on a tropical holiday that are having a great time until some unseen force on the secluded beach is causing them to age rapidly, reducing the rest of their life to a single day.

The cast of Old consists of Rufus Sewell, Eliza Scanlen, Gael García Bernal, Vicky Krieps, Thomasin McKenzie, Alex Wolff, Aaron Pierre, Ken Leung, Embeth Davidtz, Emun Elliott and Kathleen Chalfant. Between the excellent cast, the prolific filmmaker and the riveting premise, there are undoubtedly a number of solid reasons to check out Old, and it’s no wonder many subscribers want to know if it’s one of the many stellar horror titles available to stream on Netflix.

Is Old available on Netflix?

There are many horror movies and thrilling motion pictures available on the streaming service. However, Old is not one of the many choices Netflix has within its vast library of content.

The streaming service does have many items on its roster that people interested in watching Shyamalan’s Old will definitely find very appealing. Things Heard & Seen, Army of the Dead and the Fear Street trilogy are just some of the exceptional horror flicks available on Netflix.

Where you can watch Old

Old is only available in theaters. Hopefully, when it does make its streaming debut, it will be on Netflix, but until official word is announced on its streaming home, the big screen is the only place to enjoy the latest from Shyamalan.

You can check out the trailer below:

It doesn’t matter what the Rotten Tomatoes scores say, there will never not be hype for a new M. Night Shyamalan movie.

Shyamalan’s latest thriller, Old, is a surreal supernatural drama that has piqued the public’s interest with its bizarre premise. Inspired by the graphic novel Sandcastle by Pierre Oscar Levy, the movie stars Gael García Bernal, Vicky Krieps, Eliza Scanlen, Thomasin McKenzie, Alex Wolff, Abbey Lee, Aaron Pierre, and more as a family who vacations on a tropical beach and (spoiler alert) finds themselves aging rapidly.

You might want to skip the trailer if you want to go in totally blind, but even if you’ve already seen it, don’t worry. It wouldn’t be a movie from M. Night Shyamalan—the filmmaker behind The Sixth Sense, Signs, The Village and more—if it didn’t come with a twist.

That said, you do want to watch this one ASAP to avoid spoilers. Here’s where to watch Old and when you can expect Old on streaming.

WHERE TO WATCH OLD ON STREAMING:

Old is now (finally) available to rent for $19.99 on demand. You can rent the film on platforms like iTunes, Vudu, Google Play, Microsoft, and more. Once you hit play on the film, you will have a 48-hour window to view it.

WILL OLD BE ON HBO MAX?

No. Old is a Universal movie, not a Warner Bros. movie, and therefore Old will not be streaming on HBO Max when it opens in theaters. While HBO Max—which is owned by Warner Media—has been the streaming home for Warner Bros. movies like Space Jam: A New Legacy, it will not be the streaming home for Old. 

IS OLD ON NETFLIX?

No. Old the movie is not on Netflix, it likely will not be on Netflix any time soon. Earlier this month, Universal announced that beginning in 2022, all of the studio’s films will stream on Peacock no later than four months after the theatrical release. It’s unclear whether this will also apply to a 2021 movie like Old, but it seems more likely that the film will end up on Peacock—which is the NBC Universal streaming service—than on Netflix.

In the meantime, the best way to avoid the spoilers and see Old ASAP is to head over to your local movie theater.
