Madden arrives on Prime Video on Nov. 18, 2026, with a global streaming distribution rollout, Recenserie reported.
Amazon confirmed that the biographical feature will debut internationally on Nov. 18, 2026. Viewers in Italy and across international territories fall within this global launch window on the streaming platform. US audiences also receive a limited theatrical release starting Nov. 11, 2026, in selected cinemas before the streaming platform premiere.
Industry reports from Variety noted the shift toward a streaming-first distribution strategy. That limited theatrical run serves as a qualifying window for award season consideration rather than a wide national box office rollout.
Nicolas Cage stars as John Madden. Christian Bale portrays Al Davis, whose working relationship with Madden forms a core pillar of the narrative.
Kathryn Hahn plays Virginia Madden, while John Mulaney appears as Trip Hawkins, the founder of Electronic Arts. Sienna Miller takes on the role of Carol Davis, and Shane Gillis rounds out the cast announced by Amazon.
David O. Russell directed the feature and wrote the screenplay, building upon an earlier version by Cambron Clark. David O. Russell firma regia e sceneggiatura del progetto.
The film dramatizes key transitions in Madden’s career, spanning his coaching tenure with the Oakland Raiders from 1969 to 1978, his victory in Super Bowl XI, his subsequent career as a television analyst, and the genesis of the Madden NFL franchise.
Specific local catalog details for Italian viewers remain unconfirmed. Prime Video has not yet published exact local release times, definitive runtimes, or the availability of Italian audio dubbing tracks for the Nov. 18 streaming debut.
