A24’s latest projectMaterialistsreleases in movie theaters across the globe this week, starring Marvel actors Dakota Johnson, Chris Evans, and Pedro Pascal.Materialistsfollows matchmaker Lucy (Johnson), who prides herself on finding a perfect match for everyone, even if her client says that economic status is an important factor for them. However, Lucy then finds herself genuinely torn between charming and wealthy Harry (Pascal) and her ex John (Evans). While audiences wait for reviews to come in, they are likely to be intrigued by the new take on a rom-com that delves into the material aspects of relationships.
Materialists’marketing resurrected an old trailer style, and it was named one ofScreenRant’s most anticipated movies of summer 2025, increasing hype for the high-class New York City aesthetics and a love triangle that seems both impossible and grounded. If that weren’t enough,the project is helmed byPast Lives’writer and director Celine Song,all but guaranteeing this will be another unconventional and satisfying romantic drama. Most major U.S. movie theaters will be showingMaterialistsupon its release date, and you will hopefully also be able to watch it at home soon.
Materialists’wide release is scheduled for July 10, 2025, with select theaters holding advance screenings earlier in the week. As enhanced screening options like Dolby Cinema, XD, and 3D are generally reserved for bigger action movies, and there are a few to compete with at the moment,Materialistswill likely only be shown in 2D — but this will hardly take anything away from such a movie.Materialists’release has also been delayed until July and August in some countriesin Europe, the Americas, and Asia.Materialistsis rated R for language and brief sexual material.

When Will Materialists Release On Streaming?
A24 Streaming Releases Are Longer & Irregular
A24 signed a multi-year deal with HBO Max in 2023, guaranteeing streaming rights to the indie studio’s films, which has granted them streaming releases for popular titles such asPriscilla, Civil War, The Brutalist, andBabygirlin recent years. So,Materialistswill likely be released on Maxin the coming months. However, there has been much variation in how long it has taken A24 movies to go to Max, and it has generally been longer than the wait time for blockbuster movies. While Disney movies usually see around 100 days between theatrical and streaming releases, A24 has been closer to 120.
Priscillasaw a 119-day wait,The Zone of Interest112, andBabygirl122; butCivil Warwas 154 days andThe Brutalistwas 147 days. March 2025 filmDeath of a Unicornhas yet to be released on streaming, with a projected date of early August. Based on this data,Materialistswill likely be streaming in four to five months,probably in late October to early to mid-November. Potentially, this longer wait will encourage people to seeMaterialistsin theaters, when its mature storyline will mean fewer potential viewers, as parents aren’t going to take their children to see it.
When Will Materialists Release On Digital?
Materialists Will Come To Digital A Bit Sooner
However, movies are also available on digital long before streaming, although again it varies among A24 movies regarding how long it takes for them to be available to rent and purchase.Priscillatook 49 days,The Zone of Interest67,Babygirl34,Civil War42, andThe Brutalist60. ForMaterialists, audiences will probably be able to watch it in some form at home by the end of the summer, September at the latest. This would not be the only film of 2025 to essentially bookend the summer, coming across as though it is an attempt to capture a specific spirit of moviegoing.
