Dear Evan Hansen the movie is opening in theaters this weekend, and despite what you may have heard on Twitter, Broadway fans won’t want to miss it.

Adapted from the 2015 Tony-winning musical of the same name, Broadway star Ben Platt reprises his role as Evan Hansen, an anxious teenage boy who lies about his friendship with another boy at his school who dies by suicide. Directed by Stephen Chbosky (The Perks of Being a Wallflower), the movie brings back all of the irresistible music from composers Benj Pasek and Justin Paul that had Broadway fans lining up down the street.

Filling out the A-list ensemble cast is Amy Adams, Julianne Moore, Kaitlyn Dever, Amandla Stenberg, Nik Dodani, Danny Pino, Colton Ryan, and DeMarius Copes. And yes, there is some de-aging of Platt involved to make him look like a high schooler—but you’ll want to see the film for yourself before you judge it too harshly. Here’s what to know about where to watch the Dear Evan Hansen movie, and when to expect Dear Evan Hansen on streaming.

WHERE TO WATCH DEAR EVAN HANSEN:

You can rent Dear Evan Hansen on digital platforms like YouTube, Prime Video, iTunes, Vudu, Google Play, and more. The movie costs $19.99 to rent, and you will have a 48-hour viewing window to watch it after you hit play. Dear Evan Hansen will be released to buy on digital platforms on November 23, and on DVD and Blu-ray on December 7.

WILL DEAR EVAN HANSEN BE ON HBO MAX?

No. Dear Evan Hansen is a Universal Pictures movie, not a Warner Bros. movie, and therefore will not be streaming on HBO Max when it opens in theaters. While HBO Max—which is owned by Warner Media—has been the streaming home for blockbuster Warner Bros. movies like Malignant, it will not be the streaming home for Universal movies like Dear Evan Hansen.

IS DEAR EVAN HANSEN ON NETFLIX?

No. Dear Evan Hansen is not on Netflix. However, you can get your Ben Platt fix by watching the Netflix series The Politician.
