Josh Duhamel’s London Calling finds an audience on Hulu after quiet theatrical run

Collider reports that Josh Duhamel’s film London Calling has gained streaming traction on Hulu, where it currently ranks ninth on the platform’s Top 15 in the U.S.

The Allan Ungar-directed comedy action picture opened in U.S. cinemas in September via Quiver Distribution but drew little attention at the box office. The movie follows ex-pat hitman Tommy Ward (Duhamel), who accidentally kills a relative of London’s top crime boss, flees to the U.S. and takes a job in Los Angeles escorting his boss’s inexperienced son on jobs in exchange for safe passage back to London to reunite with his son. The cast also includes Jeremy Ray Taylor, Rick Hoffman and Aidan Gillen; the listed release date is September 18, 2025, with a runtime of 114 minutes.

Reception has been mixed: audiences give the film a 54% approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes while critics sit at 48%. Duhamel recently appeared in Off the Grid and Not Without Hope, and he is next set to direct and star in the comedy Preschool, which the source says will feature Michael Socha, Antonia Thomas, James Cosmo, Fenella Woolgar and Charity Wakefield. The film is available to stream on Hulu.
