Officially launching in India on OTT after its theatrical run in late 2025, the metaphysical romantic film A Big Bold Beautiful Journey stars Colin Farrell and Margot Robbie. Starting January 20, 2026, the film will be available to stream on Netflix. It delves into the intricacies of human connection through a supernatural perspective. While the film was released in international markets in September 2025, Indian audiences will finally be able to stream the title as part of the platform's early 2026 slate.

What is the plot of A Big Bold Beautiful Journey?

The plot revolves around two random individuals, David (Farrell) and Sarah (Robbie), who cross paths at a wedding; the film is directed by Kogonada and written by Seth Reiss. They are thrown into an unorthodox road journey despite their initial pessimism towards love and their own emotional hang-ups.

An enigmatic, retro 1994 Saturn outfitted with a sophisticated, sentient GPS aids the voyage. The device guides them through a series of "magical portals" that bring up important memories from their pasts, forcing them to face them head-on. By immersing themselves in this dreamlike experience, David and Sarah are able to overcome past traumas and build a connection that would normally take years to cultivate.

A diverse group of talented actors, including several up-and-coming stars, star in the film. Robbie plays Sarah, a woman who has difficulty committing and trusting others. Farrell plays the role of David, somebody struggling with emotional distance and a midlife crisis. The Cashier, played by Phoebe Waller-Bridge, is an eccentric employee of the shadowy rental agency. The mysterious Mechanic, played by Kevin Kline, is responsible for the paranormal automobiles. In crucial flashback scenes, Lily Rabe plays Sarah's mother.

How did A Big Bold Beautiful Journey perform at the box office?

A Big Bold Beautiful Journey divided critics when it opened in theatres in September 2025. The visual storytelling by Kogonada and the chemistry between Farrell and Robbie were well-received, but others thought the doors' and GPS system's metaphysical "logic" was too abstract.

With a net budget of $45 million and only making about $20.2 million, the film was a commercial bust. According to industry experts, the project finds new life on Netflix, where it is likely to appeal to a larger and more enthusiastic audience than in theatres, especially for "high-concept" love dramas.
