From Ari Aster, writer and director of global sensations Midsommar and Hereditary, comes Eddington, a new thriller laced with political commentary – set at the height of the pandemic lockdown in 2020.
Much like his previous film Beau Is Afraid, Eddington has had a somewhat mixed reception so far – with some criticism over the way it handles its subject matter – but it seems destined to find a host of fans.
Our own three-star review from its Cannes Film Festival debut called it "thematically rich but overlong", adding that it is "a film overflowing with ideas, which is something to be praised, even if it all feels like a hot, toxic mess".
The film has been out across the pond for a while now, so read on to find out how you can watch Eddington in the UK.
Eddington UK release date – is it streaming?
No, Eddington is not streaming. Instead, the way to watch it in the UK is in cinemas, where it is finally arriving a fair few weeks after its US release in mid-July.
Eddington releases on Friday 22nd August across the UK – so head to your local cinema to watch it.
This is the only way Eddington can be viewed for now, but we'll keep you updated as and when we hear any news on streaming dates.
Eddington cast – who stars in the film?
Eddington boasts Oscar winner Joaquin Phoenix as its lead, Eddington sheriff Joe Cross, reuniting with writer-director Ari Aster; the two previously collaborated on Beau Is Afraid.
Starring alongside Phoenix is the currently somewhat ubiquitous Pedro Pascal, who plays Joe's rival mayoral candidate – and incumbent mayor of Eddington – Ted Garcia.
Additionally, Emma Stone portrays Joe's wife Louise, and Austin Butler plays cult leader Vernon Peak.
Also appearing are Luke Grimes, Deirdre O'Connell, Micheal Ward, Amélie Hoeferle, and Clifton Collins Jr. You can find a full cast list below:

The film is searingly political and highlights a number of significant events from recent memory, which will likely divide audiences.
Aster has provided an unwavering commentary on the events of 2020 – which will certainly leave some viewers uncomfortable.
