War drama added to Prime Video

Prime Video has added The Zone of Interest, described by one outlet as among the strongest war dramas of recent years, making it newly available for streaming. (tomsguide.com) Separately, the WWII film Fury is scheduled to leave Netflix in May 2026, so it will depart that streamer next month. (aceshowbiz.com)

Prime Video has added *The Zone of Interest* to its movie lineup, giving subscribers and renters a new way to watch Jonathan Glazer’s Auschwitz-set drama. (amazon.com) Amazon’s listing shows the film is now available on Prime Video in the United States, while separate Prime Video pages describe it as a 2024 release running about 1 hour and 44 minutes and starring Christian Friedel and Sandra Hüller. (amazon.com) At the same time, *Fury* is on the way out of Netflix’s United States library in May 2026, according to multiple streaming-removal roundups published this week. The 2014 David Ayer tank drama stars Brad Pitt, Shia LaBeouf, Logan Lerman, Michael Peña and Jon Bernthal. (whats-on-netflix.com, imdb.com) The shift gives war-movie viewers two very different Second World War films on two different timetables. One is newly available on Prime Video in April 2026; the other is scheduled to leave Netflix on May 1, 2026. (primevideo.com, whats-on-netflix.com) *The Zone of Interest* arrived with major awards momentum. It won the Grand Prix at the 2023 Cannes Film Festival and then won Academy Awards for Best International Feature Film and Best Sound in March 2024. (festival-cannes.com, imdb.com) The film takes an oblique approach to the Holocaust, focusing on Rudolf Höss, the commandant of Auschwitz, and his family in a house beside the camp rather than on battlefield combat. A24’s synopsis and Prime Video’s listing both center that domestic setting. (a24films.com, primevideo.com) *Fury* comes from a more conventional combat template. Box Office Mojo lists it as a 2014 release about a tank crew fighting through Germany in April 1945, and the film grossed more than $211 million worldwide. (boxofficemojo.com, the-numbers.com) For streamers, that means April 2026 is a handoff month rather than a simple expansion. Prime Video is adding an Oscar-winning Holocaust drama as Netflix prepares to lose a Brad Pitt-led battlefield film a few weeks later. (amazon.com, whats-on-netflix.com)
