Here's How You Can Watch Every Step Up Movie
Following in the footsteps of their '80s predecessors Dirty Dancing and Footloose, the Step Up films introduced a new generation to the energetic hype and romance of dance movies. The franchise began with Step Up in 2006, starring Channing Tatum and Jenna Dewan (who most recently featured in the Netflix musical series Soundtrack). Tatum's background in dance has been well-established since the film's release, along with the semi-autobiographical Magic Mike, which starred Tatum and was co-produced by the actor.
Step Up's success at the box office spawned a number of sequels, including Step Up 2: The Streets, Step Up 3D, Step Up: Revolution, and Step Up: All In. While the films often have recurring characters, each one showcases its own unique story and an impressive array of spectacular dance sequences. For those who are in the mood to relive these popular movies, or for dance enthusiasts who want to check them out for the first time, here's how to watch every movie in the Step Up series.
Step Up movies and where to watch them
Unfortunately, there are no streaming sites offering all five Step Up movies at the moment, so you'll have to jump around a bit if you want to check out all of them. However, there are a few platforms where you can watch some of the movies for free.
The one that started it all, Step Up, is currently available to rent on several platforms, including Amazon Video, Apple TV, Google Play, and YouTube, for $3.99. This movie tells the story of elite dance academy student Nora and a boy from the wrong side of the tracks, Tyler. Love and dance collide as the two work together to realize their dreams and show what they are made of; it's a timeless story that any fan can appreciate.
Step Up 2: The Streets is currently streaming free with YouTube Movies, albeit with intermittent ads. Starring Briana Evigan and Robert Hoffman as leads Andie and Chase, respectively, the second film is arguably the most popular of the franchise, with characters that return in Step Up 3D. This third installment in the Step Up series was the first to implement the 3D feature and featured fan-favorite characters Moose (Adam G. Sevani) and Camille (Alyson Stoner). Fans can rent Step Up 3D for $3.99 on Amazon Video.
The next film in the series, Step Up: Revolution (or Step Up 4), is currently trending at the top of the list on Netflix. Featuring flash mobs and the hot city beats of Miami, it's no wonder this film is killing it on the streaming platform. The movie stars Katheryn McCormick and Ryan Guzman as the leads, who heat up the screen whenever they're together.
Finally, there's Step Up: All In, which brings nearly the whole crew together to compete in the big leagues in Las Vegas. The explosive dance sequence in the film's final scene is one that audiences will be unable to tear their eyes away from. Step Up: All In is currently streaming free with ads on Tubi.
