Eight years after Kathryn Bigelow's Detroit hit cinemas, the Oscar-winning director is making a return with A House of Dynamite, a new political thriller starring Idris Elba as the President of the United States and Rebecca Ferguson as a military captain.
A House of Dynamite is Bigelow's first film to be distributed by Netflix, and follows the response from the President and the US Government to an unexpected nuclear missile attack.
From a script by The Maze Runner writer Noah Oppenheim, A House of Dynamite has been well-received by critics thus far since its global premiere at the Venice Film Festival – including our very own 4-star review which called it a "terrifying nuclear thriller" that ranked "up there with her very best".
With that in mind, you might be wondering how to watch it – read on for everything you need to know.
A House of Dynamite release date?
Unusually for a Netflix film, but happily for cinemagoers, A House of Dynamite will be getting a limited theatrical release from Friday 3rd October.
Even more happily, this is a full week before the global cinema release, so UK viewers will be able to see the film before most other countries. The film will only be showing in select cinemas – so check your local to see if it might be one of those!
The movie is set to release on Netflix just three weeks after its UK theatrical release, on Friday 24th October.
For UK viewers eager to see the film, the early cinema release is probably the way to go – but it won't be too long a wait before the movie is available to stream.
A House of Dynamite cast – who stars?
Although led by Elba and Ferguson, A House of Dynamite features an ensemble cast including Gabriel Basso as Deputy National Security Adviser Jake Baerington, Jared Harris as Secretary of Defense Reid Baker, Tracy Letts as General Anthony Brody, Anthony Ramos as Major Daniel Gonzalez, Jonah Hauer-King as Lt Cdr Robert Reeves, and Moses Ingram as FEMA official Cathy Rogers.

Nobody knows who fired the attack or where it has been launched from, and they only have 20 minutes to stop it.
Split into three parts, A House of Dynamite follows the crisis pretty much in real time in three very different areas of government. Tension is high, and fans of Bigelow's work will know that this is a director who excels at portraying high-stress environments.
