As checked October 26, 2026, no current U.S. subscription or free streaming provider could be verified for The Descendants. Searchlight labels the film as streaming but does not expose a verifiable provider destination, while Hulu’s official March 2026 schedule documents an earlier catalog addition rather than present availability. No provider card is therefore shown.
George Clooney plays Matt King, a Hawaii landowner forced to reconnect with his daughters after his wife suffers a serious boating accident. At the same time, Matt must decide the future of inherited family land and confront revelations that reshape his understanding of his marriage.
