Prime Video is bringing the riotous, R-rated 2019 sequel Zombieland: Double Tap to streaming soon, reuniting Woody Harrelson and the original crew for another gleefully gory, wisecracking romp through the apocalypse.

Prime Video is kicking off the new year with some headshots and one-liners: Zombieland: Double Tap is finally hitting the service on January 1, 2026. Yes, the 2019 sequel with the original crew. Yes, it took its sweet time to land here.

When and where to watch

The R-rated sequel has been added to Prime Video's January 2026 lineup and starts streaming on day one, January 1. The addition was first spotted by ComicBook. If you missed it in theaters or just want to revisit Tallahassee's eternal Twinkie quest, it's arriving a little over six years after its theatrical run.

Quick refresher: what this one is about

Double Tap jumps ahead a decade from the original outbreak and reunites the core four: Columbus, Tallahassee, Wichita, and Little Rock. A new situation forces them to leave their comfy setup, which snowballs into a road trip full of nastier, evolved zombies, run-ins with other survivor groups, and some internal drama. It all funnels them to Babylon, a quirky, self-sustaining commune whose vibe clashes nicely with the gang's shoot-first survival style.

Who's back (and who they play)

How it did the first time

Box office: about $73 million domestic, $49 million international, for a worldwide total north of $122 million (per Box Office Mojo). Not a phenomenon, but sturdy for a late-coming sequel.

The critical temperature

Rotten Tomatoes has it at 68% based on 259 reviews. The consensus was basically: not essential, still fun.

"All in all, Zombieland: Double Tap pays a decent homage to the original zombie cult classic by getting everyone (cast and crew) back together, and delivering yet another entertaining flick."

Bottom line: if you're in the mood for a breezy, blood-splattered hang with this crew, your New Year's queue just filled itself.
