Broke – Picture: Sony Pictures Home Entertainment
Netflix will become the streaming home of the recently released movie Broke, headlined by Wyatt Russell (Thunderbolts*) and Dennis Quaid (The Substance), beginning in August 2025 in the United States. The movie comes to the streaming giant just a few months after it initially premiered courtesy of its first window output deal with Sony Pictures.
Filmed in Anaconda, Deer Lodge, Butte, Drummond, and Three Forks in Montana, the movie follows a bareback bronc rider named True Brandywine (played by Russel), who suffers from brain trauma and is stuck in a blizzard, fighting for his life.
Auden Thornton, Mary McDonnell, Johnny Berchtold, Tom Skeritt, and Jackie Vetter round out the cast. The movie comes from writer and director Carlyle Eubank, who’s best known for 2014’s The Signal and 2023’s Muzzle.
For most people, this will be the first time they’ve ever heard of this movie, given that it only received a sneaky home release in May 2025 rather than a theatrical release of any kind. It’s being distributed by Sony Pictures’ Home Entertainment unit, which traditionally handles all of Sony Pictures’ output from the likes of Columbia and Sony Pictures Classics, but also exclusively releases some of their smaller titles.
Broke arrives on Netflix for 18 months, as with all Sony Pictures movies, beginning August 21st, 2025.
The movie has picked up good reviews across the board following its premiere, although, as noted above, the lack of exposure makes most reviews few and far between. On Rotten Tomatoes, the movie currently sports a 91% based on just shy of a dozen reviews. Collider enjoyed the film with Luna Guthrie writing, “Eubank’s direction has a tenderness for its characters and for the little worlds they build around themselves, bursting full of hopes and dreams that we really want to see them achieve.”
Tessa Smith concurred, writing in Mama’s Geeky, “A touching film that is likely to have all viewers looking back and analyzing the decisions they have made in the past. Wyatt Russell absolutely nails it.”
Audience score on RT sits at 86% while on IMDb, the R-rated movie currently carries a 6.3/10 rating.
