The biographical drama created by Steven Knight, titled “Maria,” has found a new streaming platform in the United Kingdom.
A movie featuring Angelina Jolie as the renowned opera singer Maria Callas was launched last year. This film delves into Maria’s life and career, providing insights up to her demise in Paris in 1977, at the age of 53.
The psychologically-focused play, penned by Knight, is often viewed as a complementary work to Pablo Larraín’s films Jackie (released in 2016) and Spencer (released in 2021).
Starting today in the UK and Ireland, you can stream “Maria” on Netflix, a film that also stars Pierfrancesco Favino and Kodi Smit-McPhee in significant roles. Previously, it had been accessible on Netflix in the United States.
Angelina Jolie earned significant recognition for her exceptional acting, which led to a nomination for the prestigious Golden Globe Award in the Best Actress – Motion Picture (Drama) category. Remarkably, the film itself received only one Academy Award nomination, specifically for its outstanding cinematography.

On Rotten Tomatoes, the movie “Maria” currently enjoys an approval rating of 75% based on 220 reviews, with its audience score slightly higher at 76%. On IMDb, however, its user ratings are more varied, currently at 6.4 out of 10.
As a gamer, I can say that each element in this game is so finely detailed that it not only evokes deep emotions within me, but also gives Angelina Jolie an exceptional stage to deliver what might be her most intricate and impressive acting performance yet. (Paraphrased from the original statement)
According to the renowned critic Leonard Maltin, Angelina Jolie’s performance brilliantly portrays the complex layers of a melancholic celebrity – she’s captivating, unpredictable, sometimes frustrating but also strikingly vulnerable, making it an exceptional and unique display.

According to LAist, the key aspect here is the compelling performance by Angelina Jolie, while TimeOut praised this biopic as an enjoyable watch, providing a heartwarming and affectionate depiction of its main character.
Currently, you can stream Knight’s biographical drama. Notably, the author has just secured a significant new assignment, having been chosen to write the script for the forthcoming James Bond movie.
Maria is available to stream now on Netflix.
The latest print edition from Digital Spy, titled “Oasis – Live in ’25”, is now available! Grab a copy at your local newsstands or purchase it online for only £8.99.
