If you’re looking for a mindless action movie to watch with a few beers this weekend, look no further than The Killer’s Game, which is coming to digital platforms tomorrow, three weeks after the film opened in theaters.
Directed by J.J. Perry, with a script by Rand Ravich and James Coyne, The Killer’s Game is based on the 1997 novel of the same name by Jay Bonansinga. Dave Bautista stars as a hit man named Joe Flood, who decides to take out a hit on himself, after he’s diagnosed with a deadly disease. Unfortunately for Mr. Flood, the assassins he hires for his assisted suicide decide to target his ex-girlfriend (played by Rebel Moon star Sofia Boutella), too. It turns out Joe Flood still has a reason to live—and a reason to fight.
The film wasn’t exactly a hit with critics, nor was it a hit at the box office (scraping in just $5.8 million at the worldwide box office). But maybe The Killer’s Game will find a more appreciative audience in viewers who are half-watching the film from their couch.
Here’s what you need to know about The Killer’s Game digital release and when we expect to see The Killer’s Game movie on streaming.
The Killer’s Game movie will be released on digital, on premium video-on-demand, on Friday, August 30. You’ll be able to buy or rent the film on digital platforms like Amazon Prime, Apple TV, Vudu, and more. The film will cost $24.99 to buy a digital copy, or $19.99 to rent. If you rent the film, you will have 48 hours to watch it after hitting play.
The Killer’s Game is not yet streaming on a subscription streaming service, but we do expect to see The Killer’s Game streaming on Starz eventually.
There is not a Killer’s Game streaming release date at this time. Even though you will be able to buy or rent the new The Killer’s Game movie online tomorrow, you won’t be able to stream it on a subscription-based streaming platform just yet.
That said, you can expect to see The Killer’s Game streaming on Starz eventually, because that is the streaming platform owned by Lionsgate. Another Lionsgate film, The Strangers: Chapter 1, was released on “premium” video-on-demand after three weeks in theaters, and is expected to stream on Starz on September 30, about 19 weeks after releasing in theaters.
If The Killer’s Game follows a similar release pattern, you might see the movie on digital around early to mid-October 2024, and streaming on Starz around late January or early February 2025.
This is all speculation. If you want to watch The Killer’s Game movie right away, you can buy or rent the film online tomorrow.
