If you've ever wanted to see Sydney Sweeney in an intense action sequence, you're in luck! The new sports biopic 'Christy' starring Sweeney as a professional boxer is hitting theaters this weekend. Directed by David Michôd and based on the true story of pro-boxer Christy Martin, this film is sure to captivate audiences.
The movie explores Martin's journey from the 1980s to the 2010s, when she became a boxing star and made headlines for a different reason—her husband's attempt to murder her. Ben Foster plays the abusive coach-turned-husband, James V. Martin, while Sweeney delivers a powerful performance as Martin. The film also stars Merritt Wever, Katey O’Brian, Ethen Embry, Chad L. Coleman, Jess Gabor, and Tony Cavalero.
While 'Christy' has received mixed reviews, fans of Sweeney are eager to see her in a different light. If you prefer watching movies at home, you might be wondering where you can stream it. Don't worry, we've got the scoop!
Where to Watch 'Christy':
For now, 'Christy' is exclusively available in theaters. It will be released in select U.S. theaters on Friday, November 7. You can find showtimes near you on Fandango (https://www.fandango.com/christy-2025-242334/movie-overview).
Streaming Options:
Unfortunately, 'Christy' is not available on Netflix or Amazon Prime Video at the moment. While it might eventually stream on Netflix, it won't be until after the theatrical run and digital release. The film is distributed by Black Bear in the U.S., and it's not a Netflix original.
You can purchase 'Christy' on Prime Video when it becomes available for digital purchase and rent, but it won't be free with a Prime subscription. If you want to watch it at home, you'll have to wait for the digital release, which hasn't been announced yet.
Digital Release Date:
The digital release date for 'Christy' is still unknown. As one of the first movies distributed by Black Bear in the U.S., it's a bit of a waiting game. Typically, movies from small independent studios release digitally within a month or so, so stay tuned!
In the meantime, if you're eager to see 'Christy,' head to the theater! (https://www.fandango.com/christy-2025-242334/movie-overview)
