What time is Don’t Look Up coming to Netflix?

One of Netflix’s most highly-anticipated films is hitting the platform this week, and you won’t want to miss this one! Don’t Look Up is Adam McKay’s latest project, starring a full lineup of A-list stars including Leonardo DiCaprio, Meryl Streep, Jennifer Lawrence, Jonah Hill, Timothée Chalamet and more. Even Ariana Grande and Kid Cudi have brief roles!

The satirical movie comes after McKay’s highly successful titles Vice (2018) and The Big Short (2015), which took him from a strictly comedic filmmaker to someone to take seriously. Will Don’t Look Up see the same critical acclaim as his past two projects? We’ll just have to wait and see.

While Don’t Look Up was released in theaters earlier this month, it’s finally making its Netflix debut at the end of the week. So below you’ll find all the information you need to know to tune in!

Don’t Look Up release date and time

The new dramedy drops on the streamer this Friday, Dec. 24, just in time for Christmas Eve. In typical Netflix fashion, you can expect Don’t Look Up to come out at 12:01 a.m. PT or 3:01 a.m. ET. For those planning to stay up late to catch the new movie, you might want to note to runtime. The film is 138 minutes total, a.k.a. two hours and 18 minutes.

Given Don’t Look Up comes out on a holiday, you might be wondering if you should add it to your family’s movie night watch list. Well, it’s got an official rating of R, and we wouldn’t recommend watching it with young children.

If you need a refresher on what this movie’s about, check out the synopsis below followed by the official trailer:

"“Two low-level astronomers must go on a giant media tour to warn mankind of an approaching comet that will destroy planet Earth.”"
