Get ready for turbo time, Tim Robinson fans, because the first big Tim Robinson movie, Friendship, is coming to movie theaters this weekend.
Andrew DeYoung makes his feature film debut with Friendship, a quirky comedy that follows Robinson as he forms an unexpected bond with his new neighbor, Austin (portrayed by the consistently funny Paul Rudd). If you enjoyed Robinson’s peculiar humor in I Think You Should Leave, you’re sure to crack up at this peculiar exploration of the awkward and nerve-wracking aspects of male camaraderie.
Featuring talents like Kate Mara, Jack Dylan Glazer, and Josh Segarra, Friendship delivers the cringe-worthy and eccentric humor that Robinson’s devoted followers cherish. It’s a must-watch. Continue reading to discover where you can catch the latest Tim Robinson movie, Friendship, and when it will be available for streaming on HBO Max.
Friendship will initially be shown exclusively in theaters when it debuts in limited U.S. cinemas on Friday, May 9. (The nationwide release across all U.S. theaters will follow on May 23.) Locate a nearby screening by checking Fandango. As of now, Friendship is not accessible for online or streaming viewing.
Friendship is not streaming on Netflix and likely will not be on Netflix in the U.S. any time soon, due to the fact that the film is an A24 release, and the 2023 deal between A24 and Warner Bros. Discovery, brings all A24’s previous and upcoming theatrical releases to the Warner Bros. streaming service Max. (Formerly known as HBO Max.) If you want to watch Friendship movie at home, you’ll have to wait for the film to be available to buy or rent on digital platforms, or wait for it to stream on Max.
Friendship is not yet streaming on Max. Right now, the movie is only in theaters. That said, we do expect to see Friendship streaming on Max eventually—thanks to the A24 and Warner Bros. deal—but we’re not sure when.
The A24 deal is a “Pay-1 deal,” which means A24 movies will start streaming on Max in the “Pay 1 window,” meaning that Max will be the first “TV channel” to pay for the rights to Friendship, after the film has been released on digital and home media. One recent A24 title, Babygirl, began streaming on Max on April 25, about four months after its release in theaters, and about three months after its release on digital.
If Friendship follows a similar release strategy, you might see Friendship on digital in about a month, around June 2025, and streaming on Max in about four months, around September 2025.
This is all speculation. The A24 digital and streaming releases have varied by title. If you want to watch Friendship right away, you can catch the movie in limited U.S. theaters on Friday, and nationwide on May 23.
