If you never got around to seeing “Killers of the Flower Moon” in the theaters, it’s available via video-on-demand services to buy or rent from today on.
For its part, Apple has announced that the movie will be available to buy or rent through the Apple TV Store or other VOD services before it becomes available to stream on Apple TV+. An official streaming date has still not been announced.
The film marks the beginning of a new strategy on Apple’s part that focuses on its big-budget original films division, where the company is following traditional windowing models for the first time.
Killers of the Flower Moon debuted in theaters around the world in October, and will now be available to digitally rent or buy like any other studio film, with the usual 45-day theatrical exclusivity window. Apple partnered with Paramount for the theatrical and PVOD releases. The movie will later be streaming exclusively on the Apple TV+ streaming service.
So far, Killers of the Flower Moon has earned about $150 million in ticket sales at cinemas worldwide. It also seems to be a strong awards season contender, and will likely rack up many nominations at the next Oscars, with much attention landing on female lead Lily Gladstone as a Best Actress frontrunner.
Stay tuned for additional details as they become available.
