The Brutalist OTT Release Date: When and where to watch Adrien Brody’s Oscar-winning epic period film in India
The Brutalist OTT Release Date: Adrien Brody plays a survivor who moves to a new country after the war, trying to start fresh as an architect, but his past and people make life way more complicated.
The Brutalist OTT Release Date: When you dive into The Brutalist, you're stepping into a sweeping post-war saga that feels personal and epic at once. It follows László Tóth (Adrien Brody), a Jewish-Hungarian architect and Holocaust survivor, who arrives in the U.S. in the late 1940s with his wife Erzsébet (Felicity Jones) and niece Zsófia (the haunting Raffey Cassidy). They’re broken, carrying both trauma and hope.
In Pennsylvania, László catches the eye of industrialist Harrison Lee Van Buren (Guy Pearce), who sees more than concrete and steel; he sees potential, but also potential compromise. László finds success designing grand structures, but each success carries a new burden: balancing personal integrity with commercial demand, remembering the past while trying to build a future.
Good news: from June 28, 2025, The Brutalist is streaming on JioHotstar in India. It had been on rental-only platforms like Prime Video, AppleTV and Zee5, but now anyone can stream it freely if they’ve got JioHotstar.
Cast, crew and the creative force behind it all
Adrien Brody delivers an Oscar-winning turn as László. Felicity Jones brings softness and strength as Erzsébet, while Guy Pearce gives off that elegant, slightly cold edge you expect from a tycoon. Joe Alwyn, Stacy Martin, Emma Laird, Alessandro Nivola, and Isaach de Bankolé round out a powerhouse supporting cast.
The Brutalist is directed and co‑written by Brady Corbet, with writing help from Mona Fastvold, and carried by Lol Crawley’s cinematic eye and Daniel Blumberg’s unforgettable score.
