The Amazon MGM Studios action comedy PLAYDATE is set to make its digital retail debut this week, launching on digital platforms tomorrow, February 24th, 2026. The film arrived on the studio’s Prime Video platform on November 12th, 2025, and will continue to be available to stream for Prime subscribers.
Playdate is directed by Luke Greenfield and written by Neil Goldman. It stars Kevin James, Alan Ritchson, Sarah Chalke, Alan Tudyk, Stephen Root and Isla Fisher.
In the film, When recently unemployed accountant Brian (Kevin James) agrees to a playdate with charismatic stay-at-home dad Jeff (Alan Ritchson) and their sons, he expects an easy afternoon of small talk and football tossing. Instead, he’s thrust into a chaotic scramble to stay alive as they are pursued by a ruthless team of mercenaries.
Brian stumbles through one ridiculous obstacle after another, his zero tactical skills a stark contrast to Jeff’s oddly prepared demeanor. Director Luke Greenfield (Let’s Be Cops, The Girl Next Door) hilariously collides suburban dad life with high-stakes thrills, transforming an ordinary afternoon into an absurd action-packed adventure where minivan mayhem meets professional hitmen.
