How to watch Sweethearts
As a movie that did not get a theatrical release and was dropped directly to Max, there is currently no other way to watch the movie without a subscription to the streaming platform. So far, no digital release date for the movie has been announced either, but there will likely be more ways to watch it in the future.
As Max is the only way to watch it for now, those without a subscription can get Max for $9.99/month or $99.99/year for its ad-supported tier.
