Is the movie American Hero available on Netflix, Disney+, Prime or Apple TV+?
Here at Stream Tracker, we're taking a look at American Hero — a gritty, offbeat take on the superhero genre set on the gritty streets of New Orleans. The film follows Melvin, a reluctant, booze-and-drugs-soaked “super” with suppressed telekinetic powers who gets a second chance after a near-death experience and tries to make amends with his son while cleaning up the city with Lucille at his side. In this article we’ll check where you can stream it right now — Netflix, Disney+, Prime Video or AppleTV+ — and what to expect from its dark humor, messy morality, and low-key takes on capes and consequences.
Synopsis
Melvin, a reluctant hero who is far from super, has been suppressing his telekinetic powers for years with booze, drugs, and women. In the process, he has failed at practically everything, most of all as a parent to his son. After a brush with death, Melvin decides to use his powers for good and clean up the streets of New Orleans with the help of his best friend/definitely-not-a-sidekick, Lucille. For a man who can do the impossible, it might be a fight even he can’t win.
