The Woman in the Yard — a horror thriller starring Danielle Deadwyler— is new in theaters. When will viewers be able to watch the film at home?
Directed by Jaume Collet-Serra (Carry-On) is rated PG-13. The official summary for The Woman in the Yard reads, 'A lone, spectral woman shrouded entirely in black appears on a family's front lawn without explanation and warns them, 'Today's the day.' Where did she come from? What does she want? When will she leave? Only The Woman in the Yard knows.'
Starring alongside Deadwyler (Till, The Piano Lesson) in The Woman in the Yard are Russell Hornsby, Estella Kahiha and Peyton Jackson. Okwui Okpokwasili also stars in the title role In The Woman in the Yard.
Currently, the only way you can see The Woman in the Yard is in theaters, so check your local listings for showtimes.
When The Woman in the Yard comes to home video, the first place it will be available will be on digital streaming via premium video on demand.
The Woman in the Yard is a Universal Pictures release. Typically, there's a one-month to six-week window between the release of the studio's films in theaters and their arrival on PVOD.
For example, Universal's blockbuster hit Wicked, arrived on PVOD on Dec. 31, 2024, just shy of six weeks after its Nov. 20 release date.
In addition, Nosferatu, released by Universal Pictures subsidiary Focus Features, debuted on PVOD on Jan. 21, just a few days shy of a month after the film's Dec. 25, 2024, release in theaters.
There are instances when a Universal film debuts on PVOD much quicker. Universal's horror thriller Wolf Man debuted on PVOD on Feb. 4, 18 days after its release in theaters on Jan. 17.
If The Woman in the Yard follows the same one-month-to-six-week release pattern as Wicked and Nosferatu, then viewers can expect the film to arrive on PVOD anytime between April 29 and May 13 since new movie releases on digital streaming tend to come out on Tuesdays.
However, if The Woman in the Yard takes the 18-day route to PVOD like Wolf Man, then viewers can expect to purchase or rent the film on digital streaming on April 15.
Typically, new film releases on PVOD run anywhere between $19.99 to $29.99 to purchase and $14.99 to $24.99 to rent for a 48-hour period. New PVOD releases are generally available on a variety of digital platforms including AppleTV, Fandango at Home and Prime Video.
Since The Woman in the Yard is a Universal Pictures release, the film will make its streaming video on demand on Peacock, which is NBC Universal's streaming platform.
Peacock's streaming packages range from $7.99 per month or $79 per year with ads and $13.99 per month or $139.99 yearly without ads.
Generally, it takes new Universal Pictures (and its subsidiaries) releases anywhere from two to four months to debut on Peacock after they premiere in theaters.
Nosferatu, for example, arrived on Peacock on Feb. 21, just shy of two months after its Dec. 25, 2024, release, while Wolf Man is set to arrive on the streaming service on April 18, just over two months after it debuted in theaters on Jan. 17.
Wicked, however, didn't arrive on Peacock until March 21, just over four months after it opened in theaters.
Since the film was a blockbuster hit in theaters and a hot awards season film, Universal no doubt opted to push back its PVOD and SVOD releases since the film was such a big film in theaters.
As such, if The Woman in the Yard follows the same release pattern as Nosferatu and Wolf Man — two other horror films, coincidentally — then viewers can expect the film to arrive about two months from now. That would place the SVOD release date anywhere from May 23 to May 30, since new film releases on Peacock generally come out on Fridays.
The Woman of the Yard is new in theaters.

'Love Island' Contestant Issues Apology After Being Removed From Show For Saying The N-Word
Shortly after Peacock announced the "Love Island USA" cast in late May 2025, video clips of a new islander, Yulissa Escobar, saying the N-word on a previous podcast went viral online. During the season's second episode, which aired on June 4, 2025, the "Love Island USA" narrator, Iain Stirling, announced that producers had removed Escobar from the villa, which many fans assumed was due to her past problematic statements. Now, after some time to process the news that she'd no longer be in the running for the $100,000 grand prize on the most recent season of "Love Island," Escobar released an apology, which has drawn a mixed reaction from fans. On Instagram, Escobar posted a graphic that read, "Owning my mistakes; speaking my truth." In the caption, she wrote, "First, I want to apologize for using a word I had no right in using," referring to viral clips of her using the N-word while speaking about men during a previous podcast episode. "In those clips, I used a word I never should've used, a racial slur," she wrote. "I used it ignorantly, not fully understanding the weight, history, or pain behind it." She continued, "I wasn't trying to be offensive or harmful, but I recognize now that intention doesn't excuse impact. And the impact of that word is real. It's tied to generations of trauma, and it is not mine to use." Elsewhere, in her caption, Escobar explained that when she used the word, she was "speaking casually in conversation" and wasn't thinking "deeply or critically" about how her words could impact others. "The truth is, I didn't know better then, but I do now. I've taken the time to reflect, to learn, and to grow from that moment," she added. "I've changed a lot since then, not just in how I speak, but in how I show up, how I carry myself, and how I honor the experiences of others," Escobar continued. "Growth means recognizing when you were wrong, even if it's uncomfortable, and choosing to move forward with humility and accountability." As she finished, the now-former reality star explained that she was choosing to speak for herself and did not want anyone commenting on her behalf. "I'm choosing to speak for myself because I take full ownership of my actions. Do not listen to the fake statements. This is my official statement. This is me, speaking directly to you," she wrote. On X, formerly Twitter, many "Love Island" viewers voiced their opinions about Escobar's statement, with many questioning its sincerity. "Girl, you just got kicked out of the villa," one user wrote. "How much time have you really taken to reflect on this?" "I understand why they chose to have her exit the villa, but she didn't learn anything by that," another user commented. "This apology may or may not have been genuine. Having her stay in the villa and understand the weight of the word would have either been a better lesson or shown viewers how she really feels." "Not understanding the weight, history, or pain of the word? I don't buy it," a user posted. "It doesn't take thinking 'deeply or critically' to know not to say the number one racial slur," another user shared. "This is so embarrassing." However, under Escobar's Instagram post, the 27-year-old also received support from a handful of followers. One user said, "Everybody makes mistakes," while another said, "Life is about growth and learning." "We live, we learn, and we grow!" a third commented. "This doesn't define you. Sending you warm hugs." Since Escobar's exit from the villa, "Love Island USA" producers have brought in two new cast members to turn up the heat, bringing the current lineup to 11. For the women, the cast includes: Chelley Bissainthe, 27, from Orlando, Florida Olandria Carthen, 27, from Decatur, Alabama Huda Mustafa, 24, from Raleigh, North Carolina Belle-A Walker, 22, from Honolulu Cierra Ortega, 25, from Arizona For the men, the cast includes: Austin Shepard, 26, from Northville, Michigan Ace Greene, 22, from Los Angeles Taylor Williams, 24, from Oklahoma City Jeremiah Brown, 25, from Los Angeles Nicolas Vansteenberghe, 24, from Jacksonville, Florida Charlie Georgiou, 27, from the United Kingdom

Cynthia Erivo Says ‘I Forgive You' On New Album
Cynthia Erivo Acclaimed singer and actress Cynthia Erivo is heading back to Oz later this year in Wicked: For Good, but between her turns as Elphaba on the big screen, the Grammy and Tony winner is returning to music with her second studio album, I Forgive You. I Forgive You arrives four years after Erivo's debut LP Ch. 1 Vs. 1 and is an intimate look into the ups and the downs of the star's personal life. She first teased the album with lead single 'Replay' and followed it up with 'Worst of Me' in April. 'This album is a collection of stories and songs that are both personal for things that are happening now, things that have happened in the past, and I think some of which I have had to forgive people for. And honestly, some of which I've had to forgive myself for. And I loved the idea of calling it this title, because it's a simple concept, but not an easy one. And not one that we as humans are very good at, often,' she told The Associated Press of the project. Recording I Forgive You, then, was a cathartic expression for Erivo. 'The meat of each of the pieces that you listen to is the voice, so that you can hear the lyrics, you can hear the song, you can hear the emotion in it,' she said. 'Everything you hear in there is real and tangible.' Singing and acting have been intertwined in Erivo's career for years, and for her, the two work in tandem to improve the other. 'They feed each other,' she explained. 'When I sing, I feel free and I feel open, which means that when I go and act — because I've given myself that experience — the want to close off again sort of goes away. So, when I'm on a set, I'm as open as I am when I am singing. I'm waiting to receive whatever I'm getting from my counterpart or whoever's opposite me so I can actually listen. Because the act of writing and singing actually is also the act of listening.'

Yulissa Breaks Silence After Shocking ‘Love Island USA' Season 7 Exit
LOVE ISLAND USA — "Master Interviews" — Pictured: Yulissa Escobar — (Photo by: Ben Symons/PEACOCK ... More via Getty Images) Yulissa Escobar is breaking her silence. The 27-year-old Love Island USA contestant has finally addressed resurfaced podcast clips in which she used racial slurs – videos that likely led to her abrupt exit from the villa in Season 7, Episode 2. On June 6, the Miami, Florida, native posted an official statement to her Instagram account, where she addressed the allegations against her and apologized for using the N-word. 'First, I want to apologize for using a word I had no right in using. Podcast clips from years ago have recently resurfaced, and I want to address it directly,' she began. 'In those clips, I used a word I never should've used, a racial slur. I used it ignorantly, not fully understanding the weight, history, or pain behind it. I wasn't trying to be offensive or harmful, but I recognize now that intention doesn't excuse impact. And the impact of that word is real. It's tied to generations of trauma, and it is not mine to use.' The former Islander continued, 'At the time, I was speaking casually in conversation, not thinking deeply or critically about what I was saying. But that doesn't take away from how wrong it was. The truth is, I didn't know better then, but I do now. I've taken the time to reflect, to learn, and to grow from that moment.' 'I've changed a lot since then, not just in how I speak, but in how I show up, how I carry myself, and how I honor the experiences of others,' she added. 'Growth means recognizing when you were wrong, even if it's uncomfortable, and choosing to move forward with humility and accountability." The statement concluded, 'There have also been fake statements circulating, things written or said by others that don't reflect me or my heart. I want to clarify that this is my voice and my words. I don't need anyone to speak for me. I'm choosing to speak for myself because I take full ownership of my actions. Do not listen to the fake statements. This is my official statement. This is me, speaking directly to you. To those who are disappointed or offended, I understand and I apologize. I am sorry.' On May 29, Escobar was revealed as one of the Season 7 cast members alongside nine other singles heading to Fiji to compete on the popular reality dating show, which airs six days a week on Peacock. However, eighteen minutes into Episode 2, the show's narrator Iain Stirling said that Yulissa was gone. 'Welcome back to Love Island USA. Yulissa has left the villa,' he said, hinting that she may have been removed in the middle of the night. Oddly, there was no further explanation – and the announcement was so casual that some viewers didn't even notice until the end of the episode during the recoupling. Adding to the confusion, there was no acknowledgment of Yulissa's absence from the other Islanders or her new partner, Ace Greene, whom she had just coupled up with the night before. 'Ace is single now! Who should he chat up next?' read a new poll posted during the episode on the show's app. LOVE ISLAND USA — Episode 701 — Pictured: (l-r) Yulissa Escobar, Ace Green — (Photo by: Ben ... More Symons/Peacock via Getty Images) While Peacock has yet to provide an explanation for Yulissa's exit, several news outlets reported that, following the cast announcement, videos resurfaced online showing Escobar allegedly using racial slurs – possibly prompting producers to remove her from the show. According to TMZ, Yulissa reportedly used the N-word on two separate podcasts while discussing past relationships. The clips went viral on social media ahead of the Season 7 premiere, and in response, Love Island fans vowed to vote her out once submissions opened through the show's official app. The series films almost in real time with a one- to two-day delay, so it's very possible that after seeing the controversial videos, producers made the decision to pull Yulissa.

More Michelle "Chelley" Bissainthe, Yulissa Escobar, Huda Mustafa — (Photo by: Ben Symons/Peacock via Getty Images) After realizing Yulissa was gone, fans flooded the contestant's Instagram comments and took to social media platforms like TikTok and X to express relief that she was no longer on the show, noting they didn't have to vote her out themselves. 'This girl on the internet saying the N word.. loud and proud. what kind of vetting did yall do producers???' one comment read. 'the fact that we didn't even get the privilege to vote her off gets me mad but hey a win is a win 🤣 they really said y'all want her off you got it!' added another user on Instagram. 'I'm gone always support Love Island. They really listened to the uproars of the country . We didn't even have to vote Yulissa off. Amen," another viewer wrote on X. The remaining Islanders on Season 7 include main cast members Chelley Bissainthe, Huda Mustafa, Belle-A Walker, Olandria Carthen, Ace Greene, Taylor Williams, Nicolas Vansteenberghe, and Jeremiah Brown, along with two new bombshells, Cierra Ortega and Charlie Georgiou. Former Vanderpump Rules star Ariana Madix returned as host for her second season. Love Island USA airs daily, except Wednesdays, at 9 p.m. ET on Peacock.
