While The Bad Guys 2 is a DreamWorks Animation film, it is being distributed by Universal Pictures both theatrically and on streaming. Generally, it takes anywhere from 18 days to a month after a Universal Pictures release opens in theaters to the time it arrives on PVOD.
For example, Universal Pictures' horror thriller Wolf Man arrived on PVOD on Feb. 4, 18 days after opening in theaters on Jan. 17. Also, Universal Pictures' Drop debuted on PVOD on April 29, 18 days after opening in theaters on April 11.

If The Bad Guys 2 follows the same release pattern, it will likely arrive on PVOD anytime between Aug. 19 and Sept. 2, since new films are generally released on digital streaming on Tuesdays.
Since Universal Pictures is distributing The Bad Guys 2 , the first place it will be available on PVOD will be on Peacock, which is NBC Universal's streaming platform.

For example, Wolf Man debuted on Peacock on April 18, just over three months aft it was released in theaters on Jan. 17. The Peacock release date for Drop was July 11, three months to the day after it opened in theaters on April 11.
If The Bad Guys 2 follows the same release pattern, then the film should arrive on Peacock around Oct. 31, since new films debut on Peacock on Fridays.

On Saturday, the BAFTA winner revealed his costume for the upcoming sequel Spider-Man: Brand New Day, set to premiere in theaters on July 31, 2026. More from Deadline Tom Holland's 'Spider-Man: Brand New Day' Costume Gets Teaser: 'Something Brand New Is Coming' Tom Holland Teases 'Spider-Man: Brand New Day' Will Be A 'Breath Of Fresh Air' As It Will Lean Into 'Old-School' Moviemaking Tom Holland Plays Coy About James Bond Casting Rumors: "There's Speculation" 'Are you ready? – 7.31.2026,' Holland captioned the clip, in which his silhouette is revealed in the massive doorway of a soundstage before walking to the camera in costume. The studio previously teased that 'something brand new is coming,' sharing a first glimpse at the superhero uniform on Friday, marking the 63rd anniversary of the character's first comic book appearance. In October, Sony added the follow-up to Spider-Man: No Way Home (2021) to its summer 2026 schedule, later revealing the title in March at CinemaCon. 'I'm obviously over the moon and so excited,' Holland previously said. 'Playing Spider-Man is like hanging out with an old pal. And I think we were really restricted with what we could do in the last movie because of COVID; we shot the entire film on stages.' Holland continued, 'Now, we're really gonna lean into that old-school filmmaking and shoot in real locations, which is why we're starting in Glasgow and we're gonna use the streets of Glasgow to build this massive set-piece that we're putting together. So it's gonna feel like making [2017's] Spider-Man 1 again. It's been such a long time since I've done it, it's gonna feel like a breath of fresh air, and I think the fans are going to be over the moon with what we're putting together.' Helmed by Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings director Destin Daniel Cretton, producers include Amy Pascal and Marvel Studios head Kevin Feige returning. Zendaya will reprise her role as MJ, with production expected to commence after she and Holland both have completed filming Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey. Sadie Sink and Liza Colón-Zayas have also joined the cast in undisclosed roles.

Trailer For REALM OF SATAN a Very Borning Documentary About Modern Satanism — GeekTyrant
Monument Releasing has released the trailer for Realm of Satan , Scott Cummings' documentary that dives deep into the world of Satanism, and it's not what you'd expect. The film premiered at Sundance earlier this year and I watched it, but it was a very borning and completely uninteresting film. There's definitly nothing exciting about modern satanism. Not like the wild tales we;'ve heard from the 70s and 80s! The documentary takes viewers inside the controversial Realm of Satan church, offering a close look at Satanists' daily lives as well as their rituals and beliefs. According to the official description, the film 'captures Satanists in both the everyday and the extraordinary, revealing their mystical world of magic, mystery, and misanthropy.' Cummings approaches the subject with an artistic len: 'Cummings crafts each frame like a painting to allow the wild, elegant, and dynamic world of Satanists to unfold on screen.' The project features figures like Peter Gilmore, Blanche Barton, and Peggy Nadramia, key names associated with the Church of Satan. It's produced by Pacho Velez ( Searchers, The American Sector ), Caitlin Mae Burke ( We Could Be King ), and Molly Gandour ( GasLand ). Cummings expressed excitement about the theatrical rollout: 'I'm thrilled to be working with Monument on the theatrical release of Realm of Satan. The movie theater is a magical space, and this film demands that singular experience. 'Monument has stood behind and celebrated the uniqueness of this film and I am thrilled to bring audiences into our spell together. I have been a Mubi subscriber and cheerleader since their earliest day and found some of my favorite modern films through their impeccable curatorial vision. I couldn't think of a better and more exciting partner to work with.' The movie will make its U.S. theatrical debut on July 17th in Philadelphia, followed by runs at New York's Nitehawk (Prospect Park) and Metrograph. After its limited release, it hits digital platforms on September 2 and later lands exclusively on MUBI starting October 3 for U.S. and Canadian subscribers.
