The Dictator follows Admiral General Aladeen, ruler of the fictional Republic of Wadiya, as he travels to New York to address the United Nations. After a betrayal leaves him shorn of his trademark beard and stripped of his identity, he joins forces with Zoey while plotting to stop a democratic constitution and reclaim his regime.
Larry Charles directs Sacha Baron Cohen, Anna Faris, Ben Kingsley, and Jason Mantzoukas in the political comedy, which Cohen co-wrote with Alec Berg, David Mandel, and Jeff Schaffer. Paramount+'s official U.S. catalog guide added the film in May 2026, and a current U.S. availability check on October 28 confirms it remains included with Paramount+ Essential.
