Where to stream Christopher Nolan movies: the full list
The filmography is taken from the directing credits on Nolan’s Rotten Tomatoes page, limited to feature films; the shorts Doodlebug and Quay are left out. Years are the ones Rotten Tomatoes lists. Cable-login apps, live-TV bundles and disc retailers are not counted, and “Rent or buy” shows the main digital stores.

Which service has the most Nolan films?
By our count, HBO Max carries the most, 3 of the 13. That still leaves most of the list elsewhere, because his films are licensed one by one rather than as a set.
| Subscription service | Christopher Nolan films included |
|---|---|
| HBO Max | 3 of 13 |
| Netflix | 2 of 13 |
| Paramount+ | 2 of 13 |
| Peacock | 2 of 13 |
| Prime Video | 2 of 13 |
| Sundance Now | 2 of 13 |
| AMC+ | 1 of 13 |
| Apple TV | 1 of 13 |
Those HBO Max titles are the three Batman films, Batman Begins, The Dark Knight and The Dark Knight Rises, so on October 11, 2026, one subscription covered the whole trilogy.

Rental only, and the newest film
Inception and Tenet had no subscription or free option on October 11, 2026; the only way to stream them was to rent or buy from a digital store.
The Odyssey opened in US theaters on July 17, 2026, according to its Rotten Tomatoes page. JustWatch listed no US streaming or digital rental option for it on October 11, 2026, so the table shows dashes for now.
Runtimes and recurring cast
By JustWatch’s runtimes, Following is the shortest at 1 hr 9 min, while Oppenheimer runs 3 hr, and six of the 13 run two and a half hours or more. Christian Bale is in the top-billed cast JustWatch lists for 4 of them (Batman Begins, The Prestige, The Dark Knight and The Dark Knight Rises), and Michael Caine for 3 (Batman Begins, The Prestige and Interstellar).
Newcomers could start with Memento, The Prestige, The Dark Knight, Inception and Oppenheimer. Once you have seen them, our explainers on Memento’s final scene and how the two magicians’ secrets in The Prestige fit together are worth a read, and our beginner’s guide to The Odyssey covers his newest film.
