Story
After the world's population has been ravaged by a pandemic, a man lives a lonesome existence in a Colorado airplane hangar with his dog and a dour gunman he has befriended. When a mysterious transmission comes through on the radio while he’s flying his old Cessna, it sparks a hunt for the provenance of the sound.
When is The Dog Stars coming to streaming?
Not streaming yet. English releases typically reach streaming about 5–9 weeks after opening, which would put it somewhere around October 2026.
That's the usual pattern, not a confirmed date — we haven't seen one announced. We re-check every day and this page updates the moment it lands.
Where to watch in Australia
Not on any streaming subscription yet — renting is the only way to watch it at home for now.
Availability as of 27 Oct 2026 — platforms may change over time.
