Christopher Nolan’s Interstellar landed on Hulu on July 1, just 16 days before his new film The Odyssey hits theaters on July 17. The timing places the 2014 sci-fi epic, starring Matthew McConaughey and Anne Hathaway, back in the spotlight right as Nolan’s latest, led by Matt Damon and Tom Holland, prepares its theatrical run.

Cooper’s journey through the wormhole is now streaming on Hulu, landing there on July 1, just over two weeks before Christopher Nolan sends Matt Damon’s Odysseus sailing into theaters. Sixteen days separate the two events, close enough that fans have been treating this month as one long Nolan marathon. Peacock got in on it too, adding The Prestige the same day Interstellar arrived on Hulu, giving the director’s back catalog a quiet but noticeable streaming moment. Matthew McConaughey and Anne Hathaway’s space odyssey now sits alongside earlier Nolan titles making their way to subscription platforms, padding out a collection that keeps growing one classic at a time.

A cosmic journey lands on Hulu

Nearly 12 years after it first sent audiences through a wormhole, Christopher Nolan’s Interstellar has a new streaming home. The film landed on Hulu on July 1, 2026, giving American viewers easy access to one of the director’s most ambitious works just as his next epic prepares to open in theaters.

Released on November 5, 2014, from a screenplay Nolan co-wrote with his brother Jonathan, the film stars Matthew McConaughey as Cooper, a widowed former NASA pilot recruited for a last-ditch mission to save humanity. Anne Hathaway plays Dr. Amelia Brand, with Jessica Chastain and Michael Caine rounding out the principal cast. The picture grossed roughly $775 million worldwide on an estimated $165 million budget.

Sixteen days before The Odyssey

The timing gives Nolan devotees a natural warm-up. His next film, The Odyssey, opens in US theaters on July 17, 2026, exactly 16 days after Interstellar’s Hulu debut. The 172-minute adaptation of Homer’s epic, written and directed by Nolan, features Matt Damon as Odysseus, Anne Hathaway as Penelope, Tom Holland as Telemachus and Zendaya as Athena, alongside Robert Pattinson, Lupita Nyong’o and Charlize Theron.

Expectations are considerable. Nolan’s previous film, Oppenheimer, won Best Picture and Best Director at the Oscars and grossed nearly $1 billion worldwide, a benchmark some industry watchers believe The Odyssey could surpass.

A Nolan double feature on streaming

Interstellar didn’t arrive alone. Nolan’s 2006 magician mystery The Prestige began streaming on Peacock the very same day, July 1. Between the two titles, subscribers can trace the director’s range, from a rivalry drama built on sleight of hand to a space odyssey grounded in theoretical physics, all before buying a ticket for his Greek epic.

A legacy that keeps growing

Interstellar’s reputation has only strengthened since 2014. The film holds a Certified Fresh 73% on Rotten Tomatoes, and its 10th-anniversary IMAX re-release pushed its global total from around $670 million to more than $770 million, crossing $200 million domestically in the process. Hans Zimmer’s organ-driven score and Hoyte van Hoytema’s cinematography remain central to its appeal, blending hard science with a father-daughter story that anchors the spectacle.

For anyone planning a refresher before Nolan’s return to the big screen, tickets for the July 17 release are already on sale at most major theater chains.
