When Is Wes Anderson's ‘The Phoenician Scheme' Coming To Streaming?
The Phoenician Scheme — Wes Anderson's new comedy starring Benicio del Toro, Tom Hanks, Scarlett Johansson and Bryan Cranston — is now in theaters. When will it be available to stream at home?
Directed by Anderson and written by Anderson and Roman Coppola, The Phoenician Scheme held its world premiere at the 2025 Cannes Film Festival before opening in theaters in limited release in six theaters on May 31. The film opens in theaters in wide release on Friday.
Rated PG-13, The Phoenician Scheme's logline reads, 'The story of a family and a family business.' Del Toro stars in the film as Zsa-Zsa Korda, who is one of the richest men in Europe, while Mia Threapleton plays Liesl, Zsa-Zsa's daughter, who is also a nun. Michael Cera also stars as the family's tutor Bjorn.
In addition to Hanks, Johansson and Cranston, The Phoenician Scheme also stars Riz Ahmed, Mathieu Amalric, Richard Ayoade, Jeffrey Wright, Benedict Cumberbatch, Rupert Friend and Hope Davis.
Currently, the only way you can see The Phoenician Scheme is in theaters, so check your local listings for showtimes.
When The Phoenician Scheme comes to the home entertainment market, its first stop will be on digital streaming via premium video on demand. The Phoenician Scheme's studio, Focus Features, generally has a month window between the time its films open wide in theaters and arrive on PVOD.
For example, the studio's acclaimed papal thriller, Conclave, opened in theaters on Oct. 25, 2024, and arrived on PVOD just over a month later, on Nov. 25. In addition, Focus Features' hit vampire thriller, Nosferatu, premiered in theaters on Dec. 24, 2024, and made its PVOD debut just under a month later, on Jan. 21.
If The Phoenician Scheme follows the same release pattern, then viewers can expect the film to arrive on PVOD sometime around July 6, since new film titles generally debut on digital streaming on Tuesdays.
Since Focus Features is a subsidiary of Universal Pictures, The Phoenician Scheme will make its streaming video on demand debut on NBC Universal's Peacock streaming platform.
Typically, there is a six-week to two-month window between Focus Features' film releases in theaters and their debuts on Peacock.
For example, Conclave arrived on Peacock on Dec. 13, 2024, just shy of seven weeks after its Oct. 25 theatrical release. Nosferatu, meanwhile, debuted on Peacock on Feb. 21, just under two months after its Dec. 25, 2024, theatrical premiere.
If The Phoenician Scheme has the same release pattern as Conclave and Nosferatu, viewers can expect the film to arrive on Peacock anytime between Aug. 1 and Aug. 8, since new film releases on Peacock tend to arrive on Fridays.
The Phoenician Scheme opens in theaters in wide release on Friday.

Ulrika Jonsson shares powerful before-and-after photos as she celebrates one year of sobriety
Ulrika Jonsson has celebrated one year without alcohol by sharing before-and-after photos on Instagram. The TV presenter, 57, told her social media followers that sobriety will 'continue to be [her] priority' and thanked her children and close friends for supporting her. Gladiators star posted a recent photo showing her looking healthy, labelled '#sober', and also shared an older selfie in which she appeared bleary-eyed and messy-haired, which she labelled '#drunk'. 'Today I'm marking 1yr of sobriety,' she captioned her post. 'No fanfare, no medal, no trophy. The journey goes on. 'A huge thanks to all those beautiful people who have supported me; understood me; scooped me up and handled me tenderly and without judgement; who nudged me in the right direction; who made me laugh and helped me shed the crippling shame.' Jonsson went on to share a special message to her four children, Cameron, 30, Bo, 25, Martha, 20, and Malcolm, 17. 'Thank you to my kids for their support; for having faith in me after I must have worried them so,' she wrote, before also praising her 'close friends for their patience and belief'. 'My sobriety will continue to be my priority,' she continued, before joking: 'Turns out it IS possible to teach old dogs new tricks.' Jonsson's celebrity friends shared messages of encouragement and congratulations, with former Atomic Kitten star Kerry Katona writing: 'So bloody proud of you my darling miss and love you all the world.' Liberty X singer Michelle Heaton wrote: 'So happy for you darling.' In a post which coincided with six months of sobriety in December, Jonsson previously revealed she reached a point where she could 'no longer recognised [her]self' just before she decided to quit drinking. 'On the 5th June 2024, I had the gift of desperation and reached out for help,' she wrote. 'I no longer recognised myself and I surrendered.' 'Many people have asked me how I've done it and all I can say is that no woman is an island – I have not done this alone,' she continued. 'The willingness to give up alcohol came from me, yes, but without support of friends, family and my new tribe, I would not have made it this far.'

14 Spanish dishes everyone should try – from churros to jamón
(CNN) – It's fair to say Spain was late to the table when it came to recognizing the global superpowers of food. While Italy and France have spent years in the limelight, Spain was biding its time. In recent years, however, people have come to celebrate the extraordinary flavors and variety of produce the cuisine has to offer. High-profile chefs such as Ferran Adrià, mastermind of the now-closed El Bulli restaurant, and the Roca brothers, founders of the El Celler de Can Roca, have brought Spain's alta cocina international acclaim. And in 2023, Spain had more restaurants on the World's 50 Best list than any other country. But the heart of Spanish cooking remains its rustic, homespun nature, a legacy of a time when hard-pressed Spaniards had to work the land for everything it would offer. These 14 dishes – from seafood and meat to rice and pastries – are essential to sample when you travel to Spain. Paella is perhaps the most famous Spanish dish of all, and certainly one of the most abused. Authentic paella originates from the region around Valencia, and comes in two varieties: Paella Valenciana, with rabbit and chicken; and seafood paella. Saffron gives the rice its color, and the base should be left to crisp into a mouth-watering black crust, called the socarrat. Spaniards only eat it at lunchtime. A staple among the small dishes that make up a classic tapas menu, patatas bravas – 'brave potatoes' – is named for its spicy sauce, rare in a land that generally shuns fiery food. The potatoes are cubed and shallow fried and served the same everywhere. The sauce can come in any number of ways, from spicy ketchup to garlic mayonnaise with a dusting of pimiento (smoked paprika), or both. One theory holds that the dirtier the bar, the better the bravas. This tomato-based Andalusian soup is most famous for being served cold. This can be quite a shock for those who aren't expecting it, but in the searing heat of a Seville summer, the attraction becomes clear. Its principal ingredients, aside from tomato, are peppers, garlic, bread and lots of olive oil. A common dish on tapas menus, pimientos de Padrón are green peppers that hail originally from the town of that name in Galicia, in Spain's lush, rainy northwest. Pimientos de Padrón are fried in olive oil and served with a deep sprinkling of salt. Though generally sweet and mild, their fame stems from the fact that the occasional pepper will be fiery hot – lending a Russian roulette element of surprise to eating them. Less well known to tourists, fideuà is a type of Spanish pasta similar to vermicelli. It's popular in Catalonia and Valencia in seafood dishes that rival paella for their taste and intricacy. Fideuà is typically cooked in a paella dish. Jamón, or cured ham, is the most celebrated Spanish food product. Legs of ham were traditionally salted and hung up to dry to preserve them through the long winter months. Jamón Serrano (of the mountain) is the most common kind and comes from white pigs; the more expensive Jamón Iberico (pictured) comes from black pigs. The best ham should be enjoyed in thin, melt-in-your-mouth slices on its own, with a little bread. 'Jamón is the staple of the Spanish table,' says chef José Pizarro, the brains behind José Tapas Bar, Pizarro and José Pizarro restaurants in London and a handful of other eateries. 'We eat it before we eat; its salty, acorn-laden taste is the perfect accompaniment to sherry and Cava, and it gets your juices flowing for the meal that is yet to come. 'It's brilliantly good value and a leg can last ages as long as you cover and store it properly. Look for 'waxy' fat: when you rub it, it should melt into your skin like candle wax.' The humble Spanish omelet can be made with chorizo, peppers and onions, among other ingredients, but purists will tell you it should only contain potatoes and eggs. The potatoes are diced and lightly fried before being added to the egg mixture and fried on a high heat; the trickiest part is when you have to flip the pan over to turn the tortilla. If you get it right, someone should shout 'Olé!' Get it wrong and you'll have gooey half-cooked tortilla everywhere. Churros are a popular snack made from fried dough, cut into sausage shapes and doused in sugar. They're a favorite at fiestas, or street parties, when they're sold by roadside vendors. Dipping them in hot melted chocolate is pretty much the law. Another typical item on a tapas menu, croquetas are tubes of bechamel sauce encased in fried breadcrumbs, but a lot more tasty than that sounds. Jamón croquetas and salt cod croquetas are common varieties. They're tricky to make and are perhaps best enjoyed at a tapas bar, along with a cold beer. A classic tapas item, albondigas, or meatballs in tomato sauce, are served all over Spain. A tasty variation serves up the meatballs drizzled in an almond sauce, minus the tomatoes. A legendary dish spoken of in almost hushed tones by Spaniards, migas is a good example of how much of Spain's cuisine has evolved from peasant food. It's essentially dry breadcrumbs torn up and fried in a variety of combinations – often served with chorizo or bacon. Migas, handed down from agricultural laborers who had to be thrifty with their ingredients, is comfort food supreme – and in recent times has found its way onto fancy restaurant menus. A prized dish in Spain, bacalao, or salted cod, was brought back for hundreds of years by Spanish fisherman from as far afield as Norway and Newfoundland. The fish is not found in local waters, and it was salted to preserve it on the journey. It has to be left to soak in water for at least 24 hours to remove all but the slightest tang of salt. Bacalao is served in all manner of dishes; one of the most popular is with pil-pil sauce, made of olive oil, garlic and the juice of the fish, and typical in the Basque Country. A favorite of the northwestern Asturias region and based around the white fabe bean, fabada is a one-pot feast usually served with a mixture of pork meats. Chorizo, pork belly and bacon are common accompaniments, as is morcilla, Spanish blood sausage, which tastes far better than it should. Think it's impossible to fry milk? Think again. Leche frita, or fried milk, is a popular dessert made by whipping up milk, egg yolks and flour. This is left to chill and solidify, before being coated in breadcrumbs and fried. It can be served hot or cold.

Malone Souliers' Lastest Campaign Celebrates Noir Cinema
Malone Souliers' AW25 Pre-Campaign Made in Italy, founded by Mary Alice Malone, London-based label Malone Souliers offers exquisitely made footwear and bags that are loved by leading ladies around the globe. It's no surprise then, that for its autumn/winter '25 pre-collection, entitled 'Noir,' it draws its inspiration from the seductive visuals that are synonymous with classic noir cinema, and its glamorous heroines. Think a vivid Hitchcockian palette of deep reds, inky blues, and blacks, with new season silhouettes including brogue-detail slingbacks, old Hollywood-worthy platforms, dramatic corset-inspired mules, and a new retro-inflected handbag to complete the line. Malone Souliers' AW25 Pre-Campaign To walk us through the collection, from femme fatale inspirations to new key styles for the season, Coco Fong and Valerio Bava, co-creative directors, share the story behind the new line. Noir cinema has been a long time fascination of ours. We have been wanting to reference this work for a while and we felt that this collection, at this time, was the right moment. Coco Fong & Valerio Bava: We are always inspired by costume design within film. The wardrobes of the leading women, the personalities of the characters, and the way their style reflects what those characters embody is something we were inspired by when designing this collection. In particular the wardrobes of Hitchcock's femme fatales and the duality of femininity and danger which is represented, was deeply interesting to us. CF & VB: 'Fierce femininity' is represented within the collection because of this duality of femininity and danger, which we found in the leading characters of noir cinema. This translates into design through the bold detailing, statement embellishment, sharp lines and jewel tone materials, featured throughout the collection. Malone Souliers' AW25 Pre-Campaign CF & VB: We have introduced new styles, which we believe will become new Malone Souliers icons. The Roxanne, which is very reminiscent of styles from the 50s era with a block heel and clean lines is finished in embossed croc and cherry red patent. The Bettina, which features a new update to our signature curve, is a universally flattering pump, worn to be dressed up or dressed down. CF & VB: We were primarily inspired by Alfred Hitchcock's movies, 'To Catch a Thief' and 'Vertigo', in particular Frances Stevens, played by Grace Kelly in "To Catch a Thief" and the dual role of Madeleine Elster and Judy Barton played by Kim Novak in 'Vertigo'. Malone Souliers' AW25 Pre-Campaign CF & VB: We have long been wanting to incorporate our signature strap into our handbag offering and this shape really lent itself to house this design detail. We took inspiration from vintage cosmetics and their unique packaging, which is where the new 'lipstick lock' feature evolved from. CF & VB: Of course, a highlight of our calendar is our LFW presentation, where we will showcase our SS25 collection in September, which is always a huge moment for us. We also have various activations that we are planning across the US and the Middle East to celebrate our seasonal collections which drop throughout the year.
