When to Stream’s Weekly Tracking Report
Welcome to When To Stream’s Weekly Tracking Report. Every Friday, we’ll break down the film titles whose first window streaming premieres are still not confirmed. This column will not examine second window SVOD premieres, though we’ll obviously still be tracking and reporting those.
One note: There are hundreds of new films every year, and we’re not able to track or highlight every single one. For now, we concentrate on major studio and indie distributor releases.

Here are the film titles (in order of theatrical release) we are currently tracking:
Theatrical Release Date: January 17, 2025 (After a one-week Oscar qualifying run in December)
Tracking: For everyone hoping to catch this on digital before the Oscars, it’s looking unlikely to arrive before March 2nd. Shouldn’t be too long after that.
Pre-Order Availability: Yes ($24.99)
VOD/Digital Estimate: Mid March 2025
Theatrical Release Date: January 24, 2025
Theatrical Release Date: February 7, 2025
Tracking: IFC Films is consistently sticking to a 3-week theatrical window for their titles, so that’s what we’re estimating for this drama.
Pre-Order Availability: No
VOD/Digital Estimate: Late February 2025
Theatrical Release Date: February 7, 2025
Tracking: Sony Classics has its biggest hit since 2017’s Call Me By Your Name, we imagine they’re in no hurry to get this to digital. Holding on our estimate.
Pre-Order Availability: No
VOD/Digital Estimate: Mid March 2025
Theatrical Release Date: February 7, 2025
Tracking: MUBI’s theatrical window have been shrinking, with most titles now hitting their platform (and digital) about 4-6 weeks after theatrical launch.
Pre-Order Availability: No
VOD/Digital Estimate: Mid/Late March 2025
Theatrical Release Date: February 7, 2025
Tracking: This Sony title took advantage of Valentine’s Day theater traffic and outgrossed its opening weekend. We expect the studio will try to keep the momentum going.
Pre-Order Availability: No
PVOD Estimate: Early/Mid March 2025
Theatrical Release Date: February 7, 2025
Tracking: This one feels like a pretty safe bet to follow Universal’s 18-day theatrical window strategy. Should have some news very soon.
Pre-Order Availability: Yes ($24.99)
PVOD Estimate: Late February 2025
Theatrical Release Date: February 7, 2025
Tracking: A24 continues its roll out this weekend, expanding wider throughout February. We’re estimating a digital release date will take a while.
Pre-Order Availability: No
VOD/Digital Estimate: Late March 2025
Theatrical Release Date: February 14, 2025
Tracking: Disney’s two month windows have become standard, we’re estimating accordingly.
Pre-Order Availability: No
PVOD Estimate: Mid April 2025
Theatrical Release Date: February 14, 2025
Tracking: For now, we’re estimating Sony will give this family title a 45-day window in theaters. If it underperforms, we might push that up a bit.
Pre-Order Availability: Yes ($24.99)
PVOD Estimate: Late March 2025
Theatrical Release Date: February 21, 2025
Tracking: Lionsgate titles have quickly pivoted to PVOD, which we think is the likely strategy for this family title.
Pre-Order Availability: Yes ($14.99)
PVOD Estimate: Early March 2025
Theatrical Release Date: February 21, 2025
Tracking: This Quiver Distribution release looks to have a quick run in theaters, with a digital release likely for next month.
Pre-Order Availability: No
VOD/Digital Estimate: Mid March 2025
