Time travel has never been easier thanks to the streaming era. The entire Bill & Ted franchise is now streaming all in one place, giving fans a chance to revisit the beloved time travel movies. The original Bill & Ted film brought Alex Winter and Keanu Reeves together on the small screen for the first time, sparking a decades-long friendship and collaborative partnership that has seen the stars reunite time and time again, including in two more Bill & Ted films. All three Bill & Ted movies found a new streaming home in August 2025, and fans don’t need to pay for a streaming subscription to watch them.

The complete Bill & Ted franchise – Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure (1989), Bill & Ted’s Bogus Journey (1991), and Bill & Ted Face the Music (2020) – started streaming on Pluto TV, Paramount’s free streaming service, on August 1, 2025. The films center around metalhead slacker friends William “Bill” S. Preston Esquire (Winter) and Ted “Theodore” Logan (Reeves), whose music is destined to transform the world into a rock-powered utopia where they are known as “the Great Ones.” They must travel through history via their phone booth to ensure they stay on the path of infamy.
Why You Should Watch The Bill & Ted Trilogy
The three Bill & Ted films are some of the most memorable and unique time travel movies to date. Rather than placing the leads on a path of “what if” scenarios that can alter the past, the movie operates on a fixed history model, meaning all timelines, including the past and present, are unalterable, and any attempts to change the past were always destined to happen and are necessary to achieve their rock utopia. The franchise’s use of the predestination paradox allows the movie to avoid common time-travel tropes, such as the butterfly effect, and use time travel as a more fun and absurd plot device.
More than just excelling in time travel, the Bill & Ted franchise is an excellent blend of goofy sci-fi adventure and heartwarming friendship packaged with a memorable soundtrack. With memorable characters and great chemistry from its lead stars and an optimistic message of “be excellent to each other,” the Bill & Ted films are lighthearted and endlessly entertaining watch, making them easy to revisit.
