Sally Hawkins in “Bring Her Back.”
A24
Bring Her Back — A24’s new horror thriller starring Sally Hawkins from the directors of the horror hit Talk to Me — is now in theaters. When will it be available to stream at home?
Directed by Danny Philippou and Michael Philippou, Bring Her Back opened in theaters on May 30. The logline for the film reads, “A brother and sister uncover a terrifying ritual at the secluded home of their new foster mother.”
In addition to Hawkins (Guillermo del Toro’s The Shape of Water), Bring Her Back also stars Billy Barratt (Kraven the Hunter), Sora Wong, Jonah Wren Phillips, Sally-Anne Upton, Stephen Phillips and Mischa Heywood.
Rated R, Bring Her Back opened in theaters on May 30 and came in at No. 5 in its debut weekend at the domestic box office with $7 million in ticket sales from 2,409 North American theaters.
When Bring Her Back comes to the home entertainment marketplace, it will first make its debut on digital streaming via premium video on demand.
Typically it takes films released by A24 a month between the time they arrive in theaters to the time they debut on PVOD, give or take a few days.
For example, Nicole Kidman’s erotic thriller Babygirl opened in theaters on Dec. 25, 2024, and debuted on PVOD just over a month later on Jan. 28. In addition, the Jenna Ortega and Paul Rudd’s horror thriller Death of a Unicorn premiered in theaters on March 28 and pivoted to PVOD just over a month later on April 29.
Also, directors Alex Garland and Ray Mendoza’s war drama Warfare premiered in theaters on April 11 and arrived on PVOD about three and a half weeks later on May 6.
If Bring Her Back follows the same release pattern as A24’s Babygirl, Death of Unicorn and Warfare, then viewers can expect the film to arrive on PVOD anytime between July 1 and July 8, since new films on PVOD generally are released on Tuesdays.
Which Streaming Service Will Get ‘Bring Her Back’ First?
Since A24 has a deal with Max to stream its films first, the Warner Bros. Discovery streaming platform will be the first to offer Bring Her Back on streaming video on demand.
Typically it takes about four months before A24’s theatrical releases arrive on Max, which will revert to the streamer’s original name, HBO Max, sometime this summer.
For example, A24’s horror thriller Heretic opened in theaters on Nov. 8, 2024, and debuted on SVOD on Max just under four months later on March 7.
Also, Babygirl, which opened in theaters on Dec. 25, 2024, and arrived on SVOD on Max exactly four months later on April 25.
If Bring Her Back follows the same release pattern as Heretic and Babygirl, then viewers can expect the film to arrive on SVOD on Max sometime between Sept. 26 and Oct. 3, since new films generally debut on Max on Fridays.
Bring Her Back is now in theaters.
