Red One has now landed on Prime Video in time for Christmas, setting a new record with 50 million views in its first four days.

The action-comedy stars Dwayne Johnson and Chris Evans as a mismatched duo who must reluctantly team up to save Christmas when a villainous witch kidnaps Santa Claus (JK Simmons).

If the reviews have put you off, you might now want to give it a chance that it's streaming on Prime Video.

And if you do want to watch Red One, there's a way you could watch it for free by taking advantage of Amazon Prime's 30-day free trial for all new subscribers and anybody who hasn't subscribed in the past 12 months.

Sign up for Amazon Prime

You can get access to all the Prime benefits on offer, including free delivery, Prime Video and Amazon Music. After the free trial is up, Amazon Prime costs £8.99 per month so make sure to cancel if you don't want to continue your subscription.

What to Read Next

There's also an option to sign up just for Prime Video at £5.99 per month to watch Red One, but this option doesn't come with a free trial.

However you sign up to Prime Video, you'll also be able to catch up on the streaming service's other big 2024 releases including Aubrey Plaza's comedy My Old Ass and The Rings of Power season two, among others.

If you want to watch Red One on the big screen, the movie is still out in cinemas over the Christmas period.

In the UK, you can even take advantage of cheap cinema ticket deals at major chains such as Vue and Odeon to save some money on your trip to watch Red One.

Red One is available to watch right now on Prime Video.
