If you couldn’t get enough of Aubrey Plaza in The White Lotus, you’re in luck! The actress, along with Jason Statham and Hugh Grant, is coming to a big screen near you with the trio’s new movie Operation Fortune: Ruse de Guerre.
The film follows spy Orson Fortune (Statham) as he teams up with a talented group of operatives, including Plaza, in an effort to “track down and stop the sale of a deadly new weapons technology wielded by billionaire arms broker Greg Simmonds (Grant),” per the logline.
So, how can you watch Operation Fortune? Will it be on Netflix? What about HBO Max? Here’s everything we know about the upcoming movie:
As of now, the only way to watch Operation Fortune is to head out to a movie theater when it releases on Friday, March. 3. You can find a local showing on Fandango. Otherwise, you’ll just have to wait for it to become available to rent or purchase on digital platforms like Amazon, Vudu, YouTube or Apple.
While a digital release date for Operation Fortune has not yet been announced, we can make an educated guess based on a previously released Lionsgate movie.
Plane, which premiered on Jan. 13, came to digital platforms on Feb. 3 — about three weeks after it was released in theaters. If Operation Fortune follows the same trajectory, we could be watching it from the comfort of our living rooms by late March or early April.
No, Operation Fortune will not be on HBO Max since it’s not a Warner Bros. movie. Last year, the company released its films in theaters and on the streamer on the same day. However, they now allow a 45-day window between the theatrical release and the streaming release.
While Operation Fortune could potentially come to Netflix in the future, there has been no announcement about any plans for it to join the streaming giant following its theatrical run. In the meantime, you’ll just have to head out to a movie theater or wait for it to become available on digital.
