When Can You Stream ‘Immaculate’ At Home?
“Immaculate” is being distributed in the United States by Neon, which does not currently have an exclusive Pay 1 deal. That makes it a little more difficult to know which streaming service will get “Immaculate” first; some of Neon’s titles have gone to Max and other services, but the majority end up on Hulu. Given that Hulu was the first destination for Neon’s recent sci-fi horror “Infinity Pool,” it would be the logical destination for “Immaculate” as well.
Predicting when “Immaculate” will stream on Hulu is also a bit tough. Because Neon is a company without a streaming service of its own, it will likely leave “Immaculate” in theaters for as long as possible, then make the movie exclusive to on-demand rental and purchase platforms like Prime Video in order to make as much money off its release as possible. “Infinity Pool” didn’t become available on Hulu until 147 days after its release in cinemas.
If Neon sticks with that same general pattern, audiences shouldn’t expect to be able to stream “Immaculate” until around August 19, which is 150 days from its initial cinematic debut on March 22. The timing and destination of the streaming release of “Immaculate” are a bit tough to nail down for certain, but The Streamable’s experts officially predict it will bow on Hulu in late August.
