Between 80 for Brady, Moving On and now, Book Club: The Next Chapter, Jane Fonda is having a busy year — and we are all for it! Luckily, we have all the info you need on how to watch her latest movie!
Nearly five years after the original flick was released, Book Club: The Next Chapter brings back Fonda, Diane Keaton, Candice Bergen and Mary Steenburgen — who take their book club to Italy for a fun girls trip. However, when things naturally take a wild turn, they trade in their relaxing getaway for a once-in-a-lifetime adventure.
So where can you watch Book Club: The Next Chapter? Will it be on HBO Max? What about Netflix?
Here’s everything we know about the upcoming movie:
As of now, the only way to watch Book Club: The Next Chapter is to head out to a movie theater when it releases on Friday, May 12. You can find a local showing on Fandango. Otherwise, you’ll just have to wait until it becomes available to rent or purchase on digital platforms like Vudu, Apple, YouTube or Amazon, or releases for streaming on Peacock. Read on for more information.
While a streaming release date for Book Club: The Next Chapter has not yet been announced, we can make an estimate on when it will come to Peacock based on another Focus Features film.
Armageddon Time, which was released in theaters on Oct. 28, 2022, finally landed on Peacock on Feb. 17, 2023 — almost four months after its initial release. If Book Club: The Next Chapter follows the same trajectory, we may not be able to stream it until early September 2023. But if it follows the 45-day strategy that most Peacock films use, it could come to the platform as early as mid-June 2023.
No, Book Club: The Next Chapter will not be on HBO Max because it’s not a Warner Bros. movie. In the past, the company released its movies on HBO Max and in theaters at the same time. However, they have since stopped doing so and now allow a 45-day window between the theatrical release and the streaming release.
No, Book Club: The Next Chapter will not be streaming on Netflix — at least not any time soon. In the meantime, you’ll just have to head out to a theater or wait for it to become available on Peacock.
