The Take is coming to Netflix on January 15, 2027, the streamer announced in its November 9 Tudum feature. Denzel Washington, Robert Pattinson and Daisy Edgar-Jones lead the thriller, directed by Fernando Meirelles.

The announcement also mentions selected theaters without supplying a country-by-country booking list. Readers planning a cinema visit should wait for local listings: the streaming date does not establish that the film will play in their nearest theater.

The Take puts personal loyalties inside a heist

Netflix's official film page frames the story around a bank guard, a teller and a master thief caught in a web of deception. That premise places personal relationships inside a criminal operation, where knowing whom to trust may matter as much as knowing the plan.

For heist-film audiences, the useful distinction is the emphasis on people as well as procedure. The announced setup suggests that loyalties and unequal access to information will shape the suspense. That is a reading of the premise, rather than a review or a claim about how the finished film resolves its twists.

Who is making and starring in the film?

Simon Kinberg wrote the screenplay. The Tudum announcement also lists Danai Gurira, Sean Harris, Moisés Arias and Justin Kirk. Those credits establish the ensemble without requiring viewers to learn every character's role before watching.

Edgar-Jones is separately working on Mosquito, the series whose production Disney+ has just announced. These are distinct projects: the movie's January release should not be read as a premiere date for that television production.

What to put on the calendar

The film follows another upcoming Netflix title, Ink, scheduled for January 8. Their proximity gives viewers two dates to consider without suggesting that the films share a story or a coordinated release event.
