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: July 12, 2024

Tracking: Still crickets on a digital release. At this point it seems clear A24 will try to re-launch this in theaters for an awards push.

Pre-Order Availability: No

VOD/Digital Estimate: December 2024


Theatrical Release Date: October 11, 2024

Tracking: An 11/26 PVOD release date is expected.

We Live in Time
Starring Andrew Garfield, Florence Pugh
Buy on Amazon

Theatrical Release Date: October 18, 2024

Tracking: NEON will likely play the long game here. The film did pretty well in its wide release. We’re estimating it’ll hit digital before the end of the year.

Pre-Order Availability: Yes ($19.99)

PVOD Estimate: Mid/Late December 2024

Anora
Starring Mikey Madison, Mark Eydelshteyn, Yura Borisov, Karren Karagulian, Vache Tovmasyan
Buy on Amazon

Theatrical Release Date: October 18, 2024

Tracking: A 12/3 VOD/Digital release date is set.


Theatrical Release Date: October 25, 2024

Tracking: Sony’s 2024 releases have been consistently keeping a 45-day theatrical exclusive window. We’re estimating the same here.

Pre-Order Availability: Yes ($24.99)

PVOD Estimate: Mid/Late December 2024

Venom: The Last Dance
Starring Tom Hardy, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Juno Temple, Stephen Graham, Rhys Ifans, Peggy Lu, Alanna Ubach
Buy on Amazon

Theatrical Release Date: October 25, 2024

Tracking: Still no sign of a digital release for this Focus Features title. We’ve adjusted our estimate to reflect an 18-day window after the film’s wide expansion (which was last Friday). It could pop up unexpectedly next week, but we imagine the studio will wait to launch it on PVOD right before the Thanksgiving holiday weekend.

Pre-Order Availability: No

PVOD Estimate: November 26, 2024


Theatrical Release Date: October 25, 2024

Tracking: An 11/26 VOD/Digital release date is set.

Buy on Amazon

Theatrical Release Date: November 1, 2024

Tracking: Samuel Goldwyn Films took this wide quickly, we’re estimating they’ll pivot to digital by late the end of the month.

Pre-Order Availability: No

VOD/Digital Estimate: Late November 2024


Theatrical Release Date: November 1, 2024

Tracking: Sony has this priced for PVOD, and the film’s dismal box-office has us thinking they’ll release it on digital before Thanksgiving. Adjusting our estimate accordingly.

Pre-Order Availability: Yes ($24.99)

PVOD Estimate: Late November 2024

Here
Starring Tom Hanks, Robin Wright, Paul Bettany, Kelly Reilly
Buy on Amazon

Theatrical Release Date: November 1, 2024

Tracking: Warner Bros will reportedly take this one directly to Max over the Christmas holidays. Will there be a digital release first? We’ve heard some rumblings, but nothing concrete.

Pre-Order Availability: No

SVOD Estimate: Mid/Late December 2024 (Max)


Theatrical Release Date: November 1, 2024

Tracking: Searchlight takes this wide this weekend, expanding it to nearly 1200 theaters. Box-office performance should give us a clearer picture of a possible digital release date. Holding on our estimate for now.

Pre-Order Availability: No

PVOD Estimate: January 2025


Theatrical Release Date: November 8, 2024

Tracking: Lionsgate is getting this holiday comedy to theaters early, likely to get in on PVOD during the prime December Christmas corridor.

PVOD Estimate: Early December 2024

THE BEST CHRISTMAS PAGEANT EVER
Starring Judy Greer, Pete Holmes, Molly Belle Wright, Lauren Graham
Buy on Amazon

Theatrical Release Date: November 8, 2024

Tracking: MUBI takes this wide this weekend. They’ve been shrinking their windows a bit, so we’re estimating it will hit digital and their streaming service in time for Christmas.

Pre-Order Availability: No

VOD/SVOD Estimate: Mid/Late December 2024


Theatrical Release Date: November 8, 2024

Theatrical Release Date: November 8, 2024

Tracking: Vertical titles tend to have 2-3 week windows, which sounds about right for this sci-fi actioner.

VOD/Digital Estimate: Late November 2024


Theatrical Release Date: November 8, 2024

Tracking: A24 took this wide right away, and their PVOD windows are usually 30-40 days. Estimating accordingly.

Pre-Order Availability: Yes ($24.99)

PVOD Estimate: Early/Mid December 2024

Heretic
Starring Hugh Grant, Sophie Thatcher, Chloe East
Buy on Amazon

Theatrical Release Date: November 8, 2024

Tracking: This Roadside Attractions loses almost half its theaters this weekend, look for it to hit digital before Christmas.

Small Things Like These
Starring Cillian Murphy, Michelle Fairley, Emily Watson
