The Invisible Man is one of the first Hollywood movies to start streaming early, as the industry looks to make up for lost profits due to the coronavirus and keep many of us entertained as we self-isolate. First released in cinemas on February 28, it's now available to buy on-demand in many countries - so here's how to watch The Invisible Man online wherever you are.

The Invisible Man cheat sheet

Released: 2020

Director: Leigh Whannell

Cast:  Elisabeth Moss, Aldis Hodge, Storm Reid, Harriet Dyer, Michael Dorman, Oliver Jackson-Cohen

Run time: 124 minutes

Rating: R / 15

Very loosely based on the 1987 H.G. Wells novel of the same name, The Invisible Man builds on the legend of the titular character and brings it forward to the 21st century. In this re-imagining, Cecilia - played by Elisabeth Moss of Hulu's The Handmaid's Tale - leaves a violent relationship in the dead of night and goes into hiding. 

Unfortunately, her abusive ex is an unhinged but brilliant (and wealthy) scientist, as played by Oliver Jackson-Cohen from Netflix's The Haunting of Hill House. He uses his abilities to stage his own suicide, and continue to terrorize her unseen. No one believes her version of events, so she decides to fight back and - we won't say anymore, because we wouldn't want ruin this fantastic film for you.

The movie fared very well at the box office after its release back in February and was equally well received by critics. So as one of the first blockbusters to come to VOD early, we reckon it's worth coughing up the price of a cinema to beam it to your own home. With that in mind, here's how to watch The Invisible Man online - streaming from nearly anywhere in the world is easy with the help of our guide.


How to watch The Invisible Man from outside your country

In an ideal world, all of us would be at home and following our government guidelines on self-isolation during these difficult times. However, the fact is that some people will still find themselves away from home for various reasons, and if that's the case you could be forgiven for wanting even a smidgen of home comforts by way of access to the streaming services and content you normally access. Unfortunately, this isn't always possible due to geo-blocking. 

Fortunately, there's an easy solution. Downloading a VPN will allow you to watch movies like The Invisible Man and much more no matter where you are. This simple bit of software changes your IP address so that you can keep streaming movies and TV shows from all over the world.

Streaming The Invisible Man in the US is easy and it's available to watch on a large number of services.
