It’s tough to feel excited over yet another biopic, but if the eight Oscar nominations are any indication, A Complete Unknown is not to be missed. Not only does Timothée Chalamet embrace his inner Bob Dylan, but the film sees several others take on iconic personas as well. It also stars Monica Barbaro as Joan Baez, Edward Norton as Pete Seeger, and Elle Fanning as Sylvie Russo, a character based on Dylan’s real-life former flame Suze Rotolo.

The film is still floating around in theaters, but as of Feb. 25, it will also be available to watch at home. Here’s everything you need to know.

What is A Complete Unknown about?

A Complete Unknown follows Bob Dylan’s (Chalamet) rise to fame in the early ’60s, charting his beginnings as a folk singer in the New York music scene. “But once Dylan hits his groove, the film launches forward several years to 1965, when he’s an established megastar whose emerging interest in electric guitar threatens to outrage his fanbase at the Newport Folk Festival, and his early allies,” writes Mashable’s film editor, Kristy Puchko.

Check out the official trailer for a sneak peek:

Is A Complete Unknown worth watching?

In a world that’s burnt out on biopics, the reviews of A Complete Unknown have been surprisingly positive. Currently, on Rotten Tomatoes, the film has an 80 percent critic rating and a 96 percent audience rating. Not to mention, it’s nabbed eight different Academy Award nominations, including Best Picture, Best Adapted Screenplay, Best Costume Design, and Best Sound. James Mangold is also nominated for Best Director, Chalamet for Best Lead Actor, and Norton and Barbaro for their supporting roles.

“A Complete Unknown is a rare and wonderful musician biopic,” Mashable’s reviewer writes, crediting Chalamet’s performance, the storytelling outside of the subject, and the character building most of all.

While it’s still in select theaters, A Complete Unknown is officially set to make its at-home debut on digital retailers like Prime Video and Apple TV on Feb. 25. That gives you a little less than a week to watch before the Oscars. You can purchase it for your digital collection for $29.99 or rent it for 30 days (though, once you start watching, you’ll only have 48 hours to finish). If you’d rather stream the film, keep reading for more information.

Here are some of the platforms where you can purchase or rent the film online:

When is A Complete Unknown streaming?

Currently, there’s no official streaming release date for A Complete Unknown. However, as a Searchlight Pictures film, we can assume it will eventually join other Searchlight Pictures films on Hulu — like Poor Things, A Real Pain, Nightbitch, and Kinds of Kindness. We’ll update this article with the latest information once the streaming date is announced.

Hulu is surprisingly one of the most generous streamers for newbies, offering a free 30-day trial. Subscriptions then start at $9.99 per month. Don’t want to pay full price? We’ve also rounded up a few different ways you can save on your subscription below.

The best Hulu streaming deals (to watch later)

Best Hulu deal for most people: Hulu annual subscription

The best way to cut back on streaming costs is to sign up for an annual Hulu plan. Paying for a year upfront costs just $99.99 ($8.33 broken down monthly), while a $9.99 monthly plan would add up to $119.88 in a year. That means you’ll save about 16% or just shy of $20 in the long run.

Best bundle deal: Get Hulu and Disney+ for 45% off

Opting for a bundle plan gets you the most bang for your buck in the streaming era. The Disney Duo Basic bundle, which gets you both Disney+ and Hulu (with ads), is only $10.99 per month. That’s just $1 more than paying for Hulu alone, or a savings of 45%. You can also throw Max into the mix for only $16.99 per month total. That’s 44% in savings on all three services.

Best for students: Hulu Student

College students can score a Hulu subscription for only $1.99 per month. That’s 80% off the usual cost of a Hulu with ads plan. The only requirement is that you can verify your college email address via SheerID.

Best for T-Mobile users: Hulu (with ads) included for Go5G Next customers

The only way to get Hulu for free in 2025, aside from the 30-day free trial, is to switch over your phone plan to T-Mobile’s Go5G Next plan. Customers on this plan can enjoy Hulu with ads for free, as well as Netflix and Apple TV+. Already on the Go5G Next plan? Just head on over to the T-Mobile promo page and choose “redeem now” to claim the offer. You’ll just have to enter your T-Mobile number and account details in order to sign up for Hulu. You can read more terms and details on the promo page as well.

Note: After your initial 12-month promotional period, you’ll also have to take action in order to keep your subscription alive.
