How to watch the new HBO Max movie An American Pickle online from anywhere

Seth Rogen fans are in for a treat because the Canadian actor will be playing two roles in his latest film An American Pickle which is now available to stream on HBO Max. Keep reading as we have all the details on how you can watch the new comedy-drama from anywhere in the world.

An American Pickle is based on Simon Rich's novella Sell Out which originally appeared in The New Yorker back in 2013. In addition to writing the film's source material, Rich also wrote its script. An American Pickle is Brandon Trost's solo directorial debut and Seth Rogen along with his long-time partners Evan Goldberg and James Weaver produced the film.

The film tells the story of a struggling laborer named Herschel Greenbaum, played by Rogen, who immigrated to America in 1919 with the dream of building a better life for his family. However, while working at his new job in a pickle factory, Greenbaum falls into a vat of pickles and is brined for 100 years.

Greenbaum is preserved perfectly in the brine and when he finally emerges from the vat in present day Brookly, he finds out that he hasn't aged a single day. While Greenbaum's family has passed on, he discovers that his only surviving relative is his great-grandson Ben Greenbaum, who is also played by Rogen. Herschel is able to quickly adapt to the modern world and he even starts his own artisanal pickle business. However, he just can't seem to understand why Ben is so different from him despite the fact that the two are related.

Whether Seth Rogen is your favorite actor and you're looking forward to seeing his latest movie or you're just looking for something funny and different to watch this weekend, we'll show you exactly how to watch An American Pickle online from wherever you are in the world.

How to watch An American Pickle in the U.S. exclusively on HBO Max

If you live in the US and want to check out Seth Rogen's new movie, you'll need to be an HBO Max (opens in new tab) subscriber to do so.

However, if you already pay for HBO, you may be able to get access to the streaming service for free if you currently pay for the channel through AT&T, Charter, Verizon, Cox Communications, Comcast, YouTube TV, Apple or Hulu. It is a bit confusing but essentially if HBO has struck a deal with either the cable company or digital provider that is billing you for HBO, you will be able to get access to HBO Max for free.

Signing up for HBO Max will cost you $14.99 per month but for the price, you'll get access to HBO's original programming including shows like Watchmen, Succession, Barry, Insecure, Westworld and more. The service will also let you watch a number of popular shows that aren't on HBO such as Friends and even Rick and Morty.

HBO Max currently offers a 7-day free trial if you want to test out the service for yourself and watch An American Pickle online.
