Paul Thomas Anderson, 11-time Academy Award nominee, returned to theaters this fall with an epic father-daughter story dubbed One Battle After Another. It stars some big names, including Leonardo DiCaprio, Regina Hall, Benicio del Toro, Sean Penn, and Teyana Taylor, as well as newcomer Chase Infiniti in her feature film debut.
Mashable’s reviewer called it “ferocious, funny, and jam-packed with provocation,” and with all the wild praise, it’s a clear frontrunner for the 2026 awards season. If you missed it in theaters, you can now get in on the action at home. Here’s what you need to know to watch One Battle After Another — including when and where it’s streaming.

Inspired by Thomas Pynchon’s novel Vineland, One Battle After Another follows Bob Ferguson (DiCaprio) as an ex-revolutionary who’s living off the grid with his teen daughter Willa (Infiniti). When his former nemesis and military antagonist Col. Steven J. Lockjaw (Penn) resurfaces and Willa goes missing, Bob must jump into action to find and protect her.
