Amanda Seyfried’s ‘Chloe’ Set for Free Tubi Release in 2026

While Amanda Seyfried’s latest hit, The Housemaid, continues to draw crowds at the box office, another of her earlier thrillers is about to make a comeback. More than a decade before sharing the screen with Sydney Sweeney, Seyfried starred alongside Julianne Moore and Liam Neeson in a provocative drama that’s set to land on Tubi for free streaming from 1 February 2026. For those waiting for The Housemaid to hit streaming platforms, Chloe might just fill the gap with its moody atmosphere and steamy plot twists.

Back in 2009, Chloe didn’t exactly set the world on fire. With a budget of $13.6 million, it barely scraped past its costs, and critics weren’t too kind either. Still, there’s something about a film getting a second wind on a free platform that makes punters curious. Maybe it’s time to see if the original reviews were a bit harsh, or if the film really is as forgettable as some reckon.

Plot Twists and Tension

The story centres on Catherine and David Stewart, played by Moore and Neeson, a well-off couple living in a flash part of Toronto. Things aren’t as rosy as they seem, though. Catherine, convinced her husband is straying with his students, hires Chloe, a young sex worker played by Seyfried, to test his loyalty. What starts as a simple plan quickly spirals out of control when Chloe begins sharing the details of her encounters, blurring the lines between truth and manipulation.

"Catherine and David Stewart (Julianne Moore, Liam Neeson) are a well-to-do couple living in a posh area of Toronto, but all is not well in paradise. Catherine suspects that David, a music professor, is cheating on her with his students. She hires a prostitute named Chloe (Amanda Seyfried) to meet David and see if he gives in to temptation, but events spin out of control when Chloe spills the details of her torrid encounters."

At the time, Chloe didn’t get much attention, but with a new generation of viewers who missed it the first time around, there’s a chance it could find a fresh audience. The film’s mix of psychological drama and erotic tension might just hit the mark for those keen on a bit of noughties nostalgia.

Critical Reception and Cult Appeal

Like many thrillers from that era, Chloe borrows a few tricks from classics like Fatal Attraction and other psychological dramas of the late ‘80s. With a cast as strong as Neeson, Moore, and Seyfried, you’d expect a smooth ride. Instead, the film’s art house leanings and sensual undertones seemed to miss the mark for mainstream audiences, as shown by its 38% Rotten Tomatoes score. Still, some critics found plenty to like, especially in Seyfried’s performance, which was described as “sensational” and “spooky, authentic poise.”

Neeson and Moore also got nods for bringing a bit of class to what could have been a pulpy mess. As one reviewer put it, it’s “a guilty pleasure of the highest order.”

Why Now? Seyfried’s Star Power

With The Housemaid showing Seyfried in a completely different light, but still drawing crowds to the world of dark, over-the-top thrillers, it’s no surprise that interest in her earlier work is picking up. For fans looking to pass the time until her latest film hits streaming, Chloe offers a chance to see a different side of the actress—and maybe enjoy a bit of guilty pleasure along the way.

While The Housemaid continues its run in cinemas and will soon be available on VOD, Chloe is set to join Tubi’s library in just a couple of weeks. For those who missed it the first time, or just want to see what all the fuss is about, it might be worth a look.
