New And Recent Movies Streaming: What I’m Excited To Watch Online In December 2025
All the major new releases and how to stream them...
The end of the year is quickly approaching, and all but a few of the releases from the 2025 movie schedule have come out. This means there’s no shortage of new movies streaming on all the major services. From modern horror gems like Weapons and Bring Her Back to some of the best A24 movies in recent memory like Warfare, Friendship, and Eddington, to so many others, all of the best streaming services have something worth checking out. Now that it’s a new month, there are even more streaming options that have me oh so excited.
Below is a breakdown of all the new and recent movies streaming that have my attention in December 2025. With movies like Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning, The Life of Chuck, and F1 set to make their streaming debuts in the next few weeks, I know I’m going to be busy cramming them all in before I wrap up my end-of-the-year list. That said, here’s everything you need to know about the where, when, and how of new and recent movies streaming…

New Movies Streaming By Platform
If you took advantage of some of the best Black Friday and Cyber Monday streaming deals and need to know what to watch, I’ve got you covered. Here are all the major streaming releases on platforms like Netflix, HBO Max, Hulu, and Paramount+. Admittedly, there’s a lot here, but I’ve broken it down by each individual streaming service.
New Movies Streaming On Apple TV
An Apple TV subscription gives you access to all kinds of great shows like Ted Lasso, Severance, and the new sensation, Pluribus, but the streaming platform is also home to some great original films. After what seems like an eternity, Brad Pitt’s massively successful F1 will finally make its streaming debut on the platform in the next couple of weeks. Here’s what it’ll be joining in December.

New Movies Streaming On Disney+
There are a ton of new streaming shows coming to Disney+ in December, but it’ll be a quiet month in terms of new movies. However, a Disney+ subscription does give you access to recent releases like Freakier Friday and The Fantastic Four: First Steps, which joined the library back in November.

New Movies Streaming On Hulu
If you have a Hulu subscription, you can watch all kinds of new and recent movies streaming, like the 2025 Academy Award-winning Anora. But if you’re in the mood for something new, or a movie that defies genres and explanation, mark your calendar for December 26, as that’s when The Life of Chuck joins another great 2025 Stephen King adaptation – The Monkey – on Hulu.

New Movies Streaming On Netflix
I’ve gotten a lot of use out of my Paramount+ subscription this year, especially when it comes to outrageously funny movies like The Naked Gun. Well, now I have Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning to look forward to, as it finally makes its streaming debut in December.

Get the most out of Paramount+ and sign up to its more premium plan. You're essentially getting two catalogs of content, throwing together both Paramount+ and Showtime Originals. And if you're a big fan of the likes of Tulsa King, Survivor, 1883, other CBS hits as well as live sports, and those Showtime titles, CinemaBlend always suggests saving big with the annual plan, working out as little a $10 a month.
New Movies Streaming On Peacock
A Peacock subscription is going to be one of the best bets in streaming throughout December. Not only is this the best way to see all the Saturday Night Live Season 51 hosts in action, but it will also be the only way to stream HIM and Bugonia, which both debut on the platform this month.

New Movies Streaming On Prime Video
Though I plan on using my Amazon Prime subscription to watch Fallout Season 2 when it premieres in December, there are also some great new releases that have my attention. If you’re into holiday movies, then Oh. What. Fun. and Merv ought to do the trick…

Trial for 30-days, thereafter pay $14.99 a month, or save 22% by paying $139 upfront for the year.
New Movies Streaming On Starz
If you have a Starz subscription (they’re pretty much giving them away at this point), make sure you check out all the new movies that call the platform home. With Shadow Force and From the World of John Wick: Ballerina calling Starz home, there are some great new additions to watch alongside the platform’s library of classics.
Movie Title | Link | Header Cell - Column 2 |

New Movies Streaming On VOD
Don’t want to wait for your favorite movies (or maybe those you missed on the big screen) to hit one of your favorite streaming services? You’ll have to pay a premium for the convenience of watching a movie early (some of these titles cost $25 on Amazon), but sometimes it’s totally worth it.

Philip grew up in Louisiana (not New Orleans) before moving to St. Louis after graduating from Louisiana State University-Shreveport. When he's not writing about movies or television, Philip can be found being chased by his three kids, telling his dogs to stop barking at the mailman, or chatting about professional wrestling to his wife. Writing gigs with school newspapers, multiple daily newspapers, and other varied job experiences led him to this point where he actually gets to write about movies, shows, wrestling, and documentaries (which is a huge win in his eyes). If the stars properly align, he will talk about For Love Of The Game being the best baseball movie of all time.
