Julia Garner stars in Weapons, the horror film that is now streaming on JioHotstar. Directed by Zach Cregger, the movie was a major hit in 2025. It also stars Josh Brolin in a pivotal role.
The film is set in the town of Maybrook, where 17 children disappeared on a Wednesday morning. The children ran into the night and never returned. Garner plays the teacher who becomes the focus of the town’s suspicion.
The cast includes Austin Abrams and Benedict Wong, who deliver strong supporting performances. The film’s tension is built around the mystery of the disappearances and the accusations against Garner’s character.
The film was the result of a bidding war won by New Line Cinema, who paid $38 million for the rights. The studio beat out Universal for the project. The film grossed $269.1 million worldwide, making it a major success.
JioHotstar announced the release on Instagram, sharing a promo that teases the film’s plot. Viewers can now stream Weapons and see Garner’s powerful performance for themselves.
