Prime Video's The Wrecking Crew tops global streaming charts in 24 hours

Prime Video's new action comedy The Wrecking Crew, starring Jason Momoa and Dave Bautista, was released Jan. 28, 2026, and after just 24 hours is “destroying the competition” on streaming, according to Flix Patrol. Directed by Ángel Manuel Soto and written by Jonathan Tropper, the film follows estranged half-brothers Jonny (Momoa) and James (Bautista) as they reunite to uncover a conspiracy around their father's death.

Per Flix Patrol, The Wrecking Crew is the most popular movie on Prime Video in both the United States and the world, sitting atop titles such as the John Wick spin-off Ballerina, the WWII thriller The Tank, Jason Statham's A Working Man, and It Ends with Us. Critics have been positive: the film holds an 81% critics score on Rotten Tomatoes, with Punch Drunk Critics calling it filled with "non-stop action and humor" and RogerEbert.com saying it "looks backward to previous Hollywood hits, in all the ways that count, this movie is the future." Fans give it a 76% Popcornmeter score, with user reactions praising the chemistry and action.

A sequel appears likely in conversation but is not confirmed by Amazon MGM Studios. Tropper told The Direct that discussions are ongoing and that he and Momoa have talked about ideas, noting the potential to "up the ante, up the stakes" if another film moves forward.
