Here is everything we know about Young Washington’s streaming release and more!

Young Washington Streaming Release Date and Platform

At the time of writing, Young Washington is not available to stream on any subscription platform, nor has Angel Studios confirmed a digital release date. The film remains exclusively in theaters following its nationwide release on July 3.

But films usually take around 45 to 90 days after their theatrical debut before making their streaming debut. If the film performs well at the box office, it may take even longer. But in the case the film underperforms or has an average run, the time is reduced. 

Based on this, it is likely Young Washington would be released on streaming by late August or September. 

As for its streaming destination, unlike studios such as Disney, Universal, or Warner Bros., Angel Studios does not have an exclusive long-term licensing agreement with a major streaming service. Instead, its films land on its own streaming platform, Angel Guild. 

So it is likely the film will be made available on the Angel Guild App or Angel.com, but viewers will need a subscription to access it. 

When Will Young Washington Release Digitally?

Based on Angel Studios’ recent release strategy, the historical drama will likely become available for Premium Video on Demand (PVOD) approximately 30 to 45 days after its theatrical debut, depending on its box office performance.

If the film follows that pattern, a late August to mid-September 2026 date is highly likely for its digital release. The film will be made available on VOD platforms like Prime Video, Apple TV, and more. Similarly, the film will likely be made available for physical purchase in the form of DVD / Blu-ray, roughly around 45 to 90 days post-theatrical release window.

Who is in the Cast of Young Washington?

Directed, produced, and co-written by Jon Erwin along with Tom Provost and Diederik Hoogstraten, Young Washington is an inspiring tale of George Washington’s formative years from a young soldier to the first president and founding father of the United States of America (via Angel). 

One of the film’s biggest selling points is its accomplished ensemble cast, blending rising talent with several award-winning stars. Here is the complete cast list of the film:

• William Franklyn-Miller as George Washington
• Ben Kingsley as Robert Dinwiddie
• Andy Serkis as Edward Braddock
• Joel Smallbone as William Fairfax
• Kelsey Grammer as Thomas Fairfax
• Mary-Louise Parker as Mary Ball Washington
• Mia Rodgers as Sally Fairfax
• Jonno Davies as James Mackay
• John Foss as Lawrence Washington
• Michael Benz as Thomas Gage
• Leo Hanna as Christopher Gist

Rather than presenting Washington as an already legendary figure, the film’s promotional content presents him as a normal person making mistakes, battling uncertainty, and a young man struggling to find his place in the world. While its ensemble cast certainly makes it a standout, the film seems to focus more on character development than historical iconography.
