Where to watch the 2023 sci-fi movie 65

Earlier this year, Star Wars veteran and potential Fantastic Four cast member Adam Driver headlined 65, an original sci-fi film from Sony Pictures. Evil Dead icon Sam Raimi produced the film, which was co-written and co-directed by the duo of Scott Beck and Bryan Woods. While Driver is the human star of the film, the real attractions are the dinosaurs that inhabited the Earth 65 million years ago. And unfortunately for Driver’s character, Mills, he may be the only man alive in that time period. But he isn’t the only human.

65 hit theaters on March 10, 2023, which makes it one of the more recent additions to the streaming-verse. Now, with the official streaming premiere of 65 only a day away, we’re going to tell you where you can watch it.

Where can I watch 65?

On Saturday, July 8, 65 will make its streaming debut on Netflix. That’s only four months after it bowed in theaters with a modest take of $60.7 million worldwide. Sony may have lost money on the film, but Netflix subscribers now have another high-budget sci-fi film in their library.

The reason why 65 is coming to Netflix is that the streamer signed a deal with Sony that will bring the studio’s theatrical films to Netflix before any other streaming service. This is a “first window” agreement for Sony’s movies. Once that window closes, Sony’s “second window” deal with Disney comes into effect and you will be able to find 65 on Hulu or possibly even Disney+. However, the length of the first window deal can last from a year to 18 months. So at a minimum, Netflix will be the only streaming option for 65 until some point in 2024.

What is 65 about?

In the film, Driver plays Mills, a pilot who agrees to take part in a two-year expedition in space to provide for his wife, Alya (Nika King), and their daughter, Nevine (Chloe Coleman). Due to forces beyond his control, Mills’ ship crash lands on prehistoric Earth, and the only other survivor is a young girl named Koa (Ariana Greenblatt), whom he can barely communicate with.

Faced with overwhelming odds in a world ruled by dinosaurs, Mills does his best to keep Koa alive. Much to their surprise, they discover a potential way to escape the planet. But that’s much easier said than done since they have to make it past some very dangerous dinosaurs if they want to succeed. If you want to know what happens next, you’ll just have to watch the film.

65 will stream on Netflix on Saturday, July 8.

The 50 best movies on Netflix right now (June 2024)
Shailene Woodley in Divergent.

At the time this post was published, The Flash has risen to No. 2 on the list of the most popular movies on Netflix. Now, we're not doctors or lawyers here at Digital Trends, but it would be malpractice to ever say that The Flash belongs anywhere near the best movies on Netflix. The same goes for Madame Web, the only superhero movie of 2024 that rivals The Flash for lack of quality.

We'll also be the first to admit that another recent arrival, Divergent, isn't necessarily the best that Netflix has to offer. But between this YA sci-fi dystopia and The Flash, we'll go with Divergent every time. However, we're much more enthusiastic about Pokémon: Detective Pikachu, which is a lot better than we ever expected a Pokémon movie to be.

7 movies we can’t wait to watch this summer
Deadpool and Wolverine stand together in Deadpool & Wolverine.

This is going to be a strange (but exciting) summer for movies. Many of the franchises that have been so dominant at the box office in recent years are either laying low or releasing a smaller number of movies. As a result, we're getting entries from some other franchises, as well as a couple of original titles that are also worth getting excited about.

The Hollywood strikes also mean that this summer movie season is a little bit quieter than normal, but there are still plenty of great titles well worth recommending. We've pulled together the seven movies from this summer that we're most excited to check out.

May was another quiet month for science fiction lovers on Max with one big exception. Dune: Part Two arrived this month, and it's not only the top sci-fi film of 2024 -- it's one of the biggest hits of the year as well. Now, for the first time anywhere, Max has both of the modern Dune films, as well as the 1984 adaptation by David Lynch.

Beyond that franchise, we're also putting a spotlight on War for the Planet of the Apes and Inception this month, as both are rightfully regarded as some of the best genre films of the century. The rest of this list is also pretty impressive, as you'll see when you look over our roundup of the best sci-fi movies on Max.
