Anyone But You rose to sixth place on HBO Max's U.S. charts on Nov. 1, 2026, after debuting in ninth place on Oct. 27. The romantic comedy, originally released Dec. 22, 2023, continues to draw streaming viewers nearly three years later.
Why it matters
The chart movement shows that a film can regain visibility on a streaming platform long after its theatrical run, which is relevant to how U.S. audiences discover and revisit romantic comedies. It also points to the continued demand for the film's stars, whose on-screen chemistry was heavily promoted at release.
The film earned $220 million against a $25 million budget and received an 87% audience rating and a 53% critic score. Whether the chart gain reflects a lasting shift in viewer interest has not been established.

Streaming Catalog Trends
The film's rise on HBO Max's U.S. charts extends a pattern in which older romantic comedies regain viewership on streaming platforms well after their theatrical runs. Its climb also contrasts with the rapid turnover typical of new theatrical releases on the same services.
The film is available to stream on HBO Max, so viewers can watch it on the platform without a theatrical screening. Its current chart position reflects what U.S. subscribers are choosing to watch right now.
The takeaway
Older films can find new audiences on streaming services, and chart movements often reflect what viewers are returning to rather than what is newest. Readers curious about the film can check its current availability on HBO Max.
