Following its successful theatrical run, Godzilla x Kong is gearing up for its digital release, with hints suggesting it might start streaming on Max soon.
The monster mash-up flick stormed theaters in late March, raking in a whopping $520 million worldwide by April.
Now, all eyes are on when this epic showdown will hit our screens at home.
According to When To Stream, Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire is slated for digital purchase starting Tuesday, May 14. This lines up with Warner Bros.’ strategy of a 46-day gap between theater and PVOD releases, as seen with previous blockbusters like Dune: Part Two.
As we approach May, the movie calendar is brimming with new releases, making it prime time for Godzilla x Kong to transition to streaming. With competition like Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes and Furiosa hitting theaters, the move seems imminent.
Despite its imminent departure from cinemas, Godzilla x Kong remains a box office juggernaut, poised to rival Kong: Skull Island’s impressive global earnings of $568.7 million.
Max subscribers eagerly await its arrival on the streaming service. While an exact date remains undisclosed, past Warner Bros. releases provide some clues.
Looking at Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom, which hit digital platforms 32 days post-theatrical release, we can expect Godzilla x Kong to follow suit, possibly landing on Max around June 4.
However, given its stellar performance, a longer theatrical window might be in store. If we consider Dune: Part Two’s likely streaming debut before June 20, Godzilla x Kong could hit Max by July 18.
Yet, a 90-day window seems plausible, aligning with both Dune 2 and Godzilla x Kong. Therefore, the most probable streaming release date for The New Empire would be Thursday, June 27, offering fans a chance to relive the colossal clash from the comfort of home.
