It\u2019s a <strong>107-minute<\/strong> neo-Western directed by Sheridan, with Jeremy Renner and Elizabeth Olsen in the lead and Jon Bernthal in a key supporting role. The story follows a tracker and a green FBI agent as they investigate the death of a young woman on the Wind River Indian Reservation in Wyoming.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Part of why <em>Wind River<\/em> still lands the way it does comes from what Sheridan set out to do with it. He wrote the film to draw attention to violence against Indigenous women, and that urgency fed into the response: strong reviews, roughly <strong>$45 million<\/strong> worldwide on an $11 million budget, and a reputation that put <em>Wind River<\/em> alongside <em>Sicario<\/em> and <em>Hell or High Water<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So if Netflix is where you\u2019re filling in the gaps in Taylor Sheridan\u2019s filmography, <em>Wind River<\/em> is well worth queuing up, especially with <em>Wind River: The Next Chapter<\/em> in development, even if <strong>aren\u2019t confirmed to return<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can stream <em>Wind River<\/em> on Netflix in the U.S. now. Just check your region, the current licensing situation, and whether your <strong>ad-supported plan<\/strong> includes it, because <em>Wind River<\/em> has cycled through services like <a href=\"https:\/\/pluto-tv.en.softonic.com\/\" rel=\"noopener\">Pluto TV<\/a> before and can disappear again without much warning.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Wind River is back on Netflix in the U.S. as of August 2026, putting Taylor Sheridan\u2019s 2017 crime thriller, and its Jeremy Renner and Elizabeth Olsen pairing, back in front of people again.
