Is I Swear on streaming? Netflix issues huge update for BAFTA-winning film about Tourette's campaigner John Davidson
British drama I Swear walked away with some prestigious awards at last night’s BAFTA Film Award ceremony in London.
Actor Robert Aramayo caused a massive upset when he took home the statue for Best Leading Actor at the ceremony last night (February 22), defeating the likes of Leonardo DiCaprio and Timothee Chalamet who were also nominated in the category.
I Swear stars Aramayo as Tourette’s campaigner John Davidson, with the film following his life after he develops the neurological disorder as a young boy.
The synopsis for the film reads: “Based on the true story, I SWEAR is a moving, uplifting account of the life of John Davidson, a Tourette syndrome campaigner who grew up with the condition in 1980s Scotland, at a time when it was little known and misunderstood.
“Featuring outstanding performances from Robert Aramayo, Peter Mullan, Shirley Henderson and Maxine Peake, I SWEAR is a frank, funny and touching story about the transformative power of friendship and community.”
Davidson has been involved with multiple documentaries about Tourette syndrome and is an activist for raising awareness of the condition. In 2019, he received an MBE in recognition of his campaigning around the condition.
I Swear hit UK cinemas in October 2025. It went on to gross over £6 million at the box office so far, with the film still scheduled for a release in the US and Canada later this year.
With all eyes now on the BAFTA-winning film, attention is turning to where Brits can watch the drama film from the comfort of their own home.
The flick is currently available to buy or rent on Amazon Prime Video, Sky Store, Apple Tv, and Google Play.
However, Netflix has just announced that I Swear will be added to the stream service’s library on March 10 for subscribers in the UK and Ireland.
