The Best A24 Movies Ranked and Where to Watch Them All Online

Updated on

A24 has made its mark on the film industry as an independent producer and distributor of some of the best original films since its founding in 2012. Created by indie film industry veterans Daniel Katz, David Fenkel, and John Hodges in New York City, A24 is known for producing intimate, unique, and compelling storylines that have captured the attention of audiences and critics seeking original storytelling and aesthetic visuals. Use our guide to discover 22 of the best A24 movies and where you can stream them right now.

A24 started out predominantly as a distributor, establishing itself on the scene with films such as the raw and unexpected Disney-actress outing Spring Breakers, and the futuristic thriller Ex Machina. By 2015, production began to ramp up, and A24’s reputation as a formidable force in the indie industry became further enforced with Room, which earned four Oscar nominations and a Best Actress win for Brie Larson. That same year, A24 released the eclectic The Lobster, and the sinister arthouse horror The Witch — the latter of which firmly established Anya Taylor-Joy as an actress on the rise.

In 2017, A24 won its first Best Picture Oscar with Barry Jenkins’ Moonlight, the deeply intimate and heart-wrenching story of Chiron in childhood, adolescence, and adulthood as he grapples with his sexual identity and the effects of growing up in poverty. The film not only impressed critics and art house-lovers with its Wong Kar-wai-inspired cinematography and score, but also touched a wider audience who related to the universal themes of the desire for connection and the self-created defenses that get in the way of it.

Now firmly established as the go-to independent film studio, A24 won big again in 2023 with Everything, Everywhere, All at Once, which won seven of its eleven Oscar nominations — including for Best Picture. The studio continues to carefully select compelling filmmakers and give them full license to realize their creative visions, giving artists a chance to make what they truly want, and audiences the pleasure of seeing original, engaging, and thought-provoking productions.
