You can now watch Babygirl at home – here's how
The most salacious film of the year (so far) has now officially landed on streaming streaming services. While it might feel like only yesterday that the thriller hit UK cinemas, you can now enjoy Babygirl from the comfort of your home.
Nicole Kidman and Harris Dickinson star in this workplace power-play as Romy, the driven CEO, and Samuel, the lowly intern, but it's not long before the tables turn and a sordid affair begins.
Writer and director Halina Reijn, known for her camp comedy/horror Bodies Bodies Bodies, explores themes of shame and desire, through the relatable contradictions in Romy's personality, making for a more realistic approach to power-switching relationships than the film genre's 1990s predecessors like Basic Instinct and Indecent Proposal. Baby Girl swaps moody candlelight for fluorescent office lighting, and champagne for a glass of milk. No, really.
The film raked in more than £1m in the opening weekend, showing a clear appetite among UK audiences. So, if you're looking here's everything we know about how to stream Babygirl.
When can I stream BabyGirl?
The A24 film is now available to rent or buy in the UK. The producers are yet to announce if or when the film will be free to watch on any specific streaming service such as Disney+ or Netflix, but for now, you can still treat yourself to a sultry movie night.
Thanks to A24's partnership with Warner Bros, it's likely that HBO Max will take priority streaming rights following home premiere – a site that can only be accessed here in the UK with the help of a trusted VPN.
Where can I stream BabyGirl?
Major platforms will no doubt be falling over themselves to acquire this widely talked about film. But it is Amazon Prime Video and Apple TV who have scored the rights for the home premiere of Babygirl. Right now you can buy or rent the film through both sites.
What is Babygirl about?
Babygirl follows Romy (Nicole Kidman), a smart, driven, elegant CEO of a robotics company. The film opens by painting a picture of her life; an enormous penthouse apartment in New York, two gorgeous daughters eating breakfast around the kitchen table, and a deeply affectionate husband played by Antonia Banderas.
But, beneath this picture of perfection is a sense of dissatisfaction, and this overwhelming fear and shame towards her own desires. Enter: Samuel (Harris Dickinson). An intern half Romy's age has an uncanny ability to sense exactly what it is a person wants, even when they don't know themselves. An awkward, somewhat bumbling and yet remarkably sensual power shift begins where Romy gives in and gives up her dominance, willingly risking it all.

Makers of new F1 film say they could not have done it without Lewis Hamilton
Seven-time world champion Hamilton is an executive producer on the Brad Pitt movie, titled 'F1', which is released in the United Kingdom on June 25. Hamilton has been heavily involved in the script – which sees 61-year-old Pitt play the role of veteran driver Sonny Hayes returning to the F1 grid after a long absence – to ensure the film is as authentic as possible. Joseph Kosinski, the man behind Top Gun: Maverick and director of the F1 movie, said at this weekend's Canadian Grand Prix: 'Lewis was the first person I reached out to when I had the initial idea for this. 'I sent him an email and just said, 'I want to tell a story in your world. I want to make it as authentic as possible. Will you help me?' And luckily Lewis said 'Yes'. 'He was involved in all the technical details with fascinating advice. In Hungary, for instance, he said, 'If Brad's going to let someone pass during a blue flag and he wants it to be as tight as possible, he's going to only do that at turn six'. SNEAK PEEK: The APXGP team meet for the first time! 👀#F1TheMovie – only in theatres late June Get tickets now: 🎟️#F1 — Formula 1 (@F1) June 11, 2025 'That kind of detail from a seven-time world champion who lives and breathes this world every day, I couldn't have got that from anywhere else. 'But Lewis also contributed to the story. There is a part in the film where Sonny Hayes talks about why he races and almost the spiritual side of it. And that also was inspired by a conversation with Lewis. So his involvement has been amazing. And we couldn't make the film without him.' Pitt's fictional rookie team-mate Joshua Pearce is played by British actor Damson Idris. Filming has taken place across multiple races over the last two seasons, and F1 chiefs hope the movie will follow the popularity of Netflix's Drive To Survive series in cracking America.
