Power Ballad

Power Ballad (2026) is an Irish-American music comedy-drama you can watch online on iFILM, directed by John Carney — the filmmaker behind Once and Sing Street. Paul Rudd plays Rick, a wedding singer well past his chart dreams. Nick Jonas is Danny, a boy-band relic trying to remember what it felt like to matter.

One late-night jam session after a forgettable gig, and the two men click over music in a way their careers never allowed them to. But when Danny takes Rick's song and turns it into the comeback hit that rewires his career, the friendship cracks open. Rick wants credit — or at least acknowledgment. Getting it might cost him everything he's quietly built.

Carney treats music as the engine of the story, not decoration, and Rudd brings genuine weight to a man who's been overlooked long enough to be dangerous. Jack Reynor and Havana Rose Liu round out the cast. The tagline says "set the record straight" — that's exactly what the film is about. Stream Power Ballad (2026) online on iFILM.
