A new banger called A House of Dynamite is in the works at Netflix, and we will soon be seeing it on the streaming platform. It stars an ensemble cast of Idris Elba, Rebecca Ferguson, Jared Harris, and more, where the story will revolve around an unidentified enemy who has just launched a nuclear missile.
It seems like the missile is already on its way towards the target. It is likely to be set during a span of hours and not days or weeks, when the officials and soldiers are likely to turn this flying abomination off. A recent movie, Last Breath, starring Woody Harrelson, Finn Cole, Simu Liu, and more, was set in a similar timeline, where they needed to rescue one of their divers from the ocean.
We still don't have a trailer, but Netflix did drop a dynamite on its Twitter (now X) handle, which included some stills and a release date for the movie. Rest assured, we will be seeing A House of Dynamite soon.
When will A House of Dynamite release on Netflix?

Kathryn Bigelow's A House of Dynamite is coming this October, but before it lands on the streaming platform, there will be a theatrical release, as the post revealed. It reads,
"In select theaters October 3 in the UK, globally October 10, and on Netflix October 24."
You can see the post below.
We can expect some heart-throbbing action in the film, given the history of Bigelow, who has won a couple of Academy Awards, both for the war film The Hurt Locker (2008). She was again nominated for an Oscar in 2012 for Zero Dark Thirty, where she lost to Ben Affleck's Argo.
What else is coming to Netflix in October 2025?
While A House of Dynamite will drop a bit later in October this year, it will clash with some movies, some of which will also get a theatrical release before their arrival on the platform.
It will begin with Steve, which is about a school teacher of the same name, played by Oppenheimer's Cillian Murphy, trying to maintain his school's integrity while also going through his personal inner battles. It will be released on October 3, 2025.
After that, we will see Keira Knightley in a psychological thriller called The Woman in Cabin 10. It will follow a journalist who saw something happening, probably bad, but is told that whatever she saw never happened. We will have to see if that's the truth or if it's all in her mind on October 10.
Just before A House of Dynamite, there are three movies on Netflix's roster: She Walks in Darkness, The Twits, and The Perfect Neighbor. All of them will be released on October 17.
Finally, we have the Colin Farrell starrer, The Ballad of a Small Player, which follows Lord Doyle, a gambler who is currently just surviving and lying low in Macau. A teaser was released a few days ago, which gave us a glimpse of the colorful world we are about to see on October 29, 2025, on Netflix. There will be a theatrical release on October 15, before that.
