Looking for 4th of July plans that don’t involve being outside during a historic heat wave? You could always go see the Young Washington movie in theaters, and enjoy this dramatized version of American history from a nice, cold, air-conditioned room. Doesn’t that sound nice?

Young Washington was directed by Jon Erwin (known for making faith-based movies with his brother Andrew, such as I Can Only Imagine), with a script written by Erwin, Tom Provost, and Diederik Hoogstraten. The movie stars William Franklyn-Miller as, you guessed it, a young version of George Washington. Audiences will learn the story of Washington’s life before he fought as a general in the American Revolution, and before before he became the first-ever president of the United States.

Also starring Mary-Louise Parker, Kelsey Grammer, Andy Serkis and Ben Kingsley, Young Washington is the latest movie from Angel Studios, an independent movie studio that focus on faith-based films and conservative values. If you’re curious about the George Washington movie but don’t feel like going to the movie theater, then read on to find out when and where we expect to see the Young Washington movie on streaming.

Where to watch the George Washington movie Young Washington:

For now, Young Washington will only be available to watch in a movie theater, when it opens in select theaters in the U.S. on Friday, July 3. You can find a showing near you via Fandango. Young Washington is not yet available to watch online or on streaming.

Is the Young Washington movie streaming on Netflix or Prime Video?

Young Washington is not streaming on Netflix or Prime Video right now. While it’s possible Young Washington may stream on Netflix someday, it won’t be until after the theatrical run and digital release of the movie. Young Washington is not a Netflix original—it’s a small, independent film being distributed by Angel Studios, known for making faith-based films. So far, since the studio’s launch in 2021, none of Angel Studios movies have gone on to stream on Netflix. Never say never, but it’s unlikely you’ll see Young Washington streaming on Netflix anytime soon.

You will be able to purchase Young Washington on Prime Video eventually, when the movie becomes available to buy and rent on digital, but you will not be able to stream Young Washington on Prime Video free with a Prime subscription any time soon, because it is not a Prime original movie. If you want to watch Young Washington movie at home, you’ll have to wait for the film to be available to buy or rent on digital platforms.

When will the Young Washington movie release on digital?

The Young Washington movie digital release date has not yet been announced. However, we can make an educated guess as to when we might see Young Washington on video-on-demand, based on the digital release of previous films from this studio, Angel Studios.

Another Angel Studios movie, Solo Mio, was released was released on digital platforms about a month and a half after opening in theaters. If Young Washington follows a similar pattern, you might see the movie on video-on-demand in about one month, around the first week of August 2026. Around the same time or earlier, you will also likely see Young Washington streaming on the Angel Studios website, available to Angel Guild members, with subscriptions starting at $12 a month, or $134 a year.

But this is all speculation. Other Angel Studio movies took over three months to come to digital, and others are still only available to stream on the Angel Studios website with a guild membership. So if you want to see Young Washington right away, you should catch the movie in a theater.
