Rian Johnson has directed seven feature films from 2005 to 2025, and on October 12, 2026, six of them were streaming with a US subscription, three were free with ads somewhere, and five could be rented or bought digitally. The table below has every one, from Brick to Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery, with the services carrying it on that date.
Availability shifts as licensing deals end and start, so each title links to its JustWatch page, which tracks US streaming daily. Everything in this guide comes from a single check on October 12, 2026.
Where to stream Rian Johnson movies: the full list
The list follows the film directing credits on Johnson’s Rotten Tomatoes filmography. His television directing, which Rotten Tomatoes lists for Breaking Bad, Das Boot and his own series Poker Face, is left out, as is a one-night fan-event screening of The Last Jedi that the site lists separately. Rotten Tomatoes also credits him with the film editing on Brick. Years are the ones Rotten Tomatoes gives. Live-TV bundles and disc sellers are excluded; “Rent or buy” lists the main digital stores.

The Knives Out mysteries: one series, two services
The three Knives Out mysteries were not in one place on October 12, 2026. Knives Out streams with a subscription on Lionsgate+, and free with ads on The Roku Channel. Both sequels, Glass Onion and Wake Up Dead Man, stream with a subscription on Netflix. JustWatch lists no digital rental or purchase for either sequel, so a subscription is the only way to stream them; the first film, by contrast, can be rented or bought from the usual digital stores.
Daniel Craig is among the top-billed cast JustWatch lists for all three. The rest of the top billing changes each time: Knives Out lists Chris Evans and Ana de Armas; Glass Onion lists Edward Norton and Janelle Monáe; Wake Up Dead Man lists Josh O’Connor and Glenn Close.
Before Knives Out
Before The Last Jedi and the Knives Out series, he directed three films: Brick, The Brothers Bloom and Looper. Of those, The Brothers Bloom and Looper were free with ads somewhere on the check date.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt is among the top-billed cast JustWatch lists on Brick and Looper. On October 12, 2026, Brick is not on any subscription or free service; you can rent or buy it digitally. Looper streams with a subscription on Sony Pictures Core and Starz, and free with ads on Plex.
Star Wars: The Last Jedi streams with a subscription on Disney+ as of October 12, 2026.
Which service has the most Rian Johnson films?
By our count on October 12, 2026, Lionsgate+, Netflix and Starz tie with two each of the seven films he has directed; Disney+, Howdy and Sony Pictures Core have one each. Because of the Knives Out split, even a viewer who only wants that series needs more than one service.
| Subscription service | Rian Johnson films included |
|---|---|
| Lionsgate+ | 2 of 7 |
| Netflix | 2 of 7 |
| Starz | 2 of 7 |
| Disney+ | 1 of 7 |
| Howdy | 1 of 7 |
| Sony Pictures Core | 1 of 7 |
