When 'The Phoenician Scheme' Will Be Available to Stream and How to Watch
It's Wes Anderson season, baby! You know what that means: Intricate production design, tons of stars, tightly constructed visual symmetry, and plenty of deadpan humor. Sign me TF up!! This new film follows Benicio Del Toro's Zsa-zsa Korda, a wealthy businessman, who appoints his estranged daughter as the heir to his estate after multiple assassination attempts of his life. Naturally, there are then lots of shenanigans. It sounds very Wes Anderson.
The movie premiered at Cannes earlier this month and is now out in some, but not all, theaters. Here's everything we know about how you can watch it.
If you're in New York or Los Angeles, you're in luck, because you can see the movie this weekend! The movie is out in limited release now, and will hit wide release next week Friday. So that means if you can't see it this weekend, you'll be able to see it next weekend.
BUY TICKETS NOW
Oh, so you hate movie theaters? Is that what you're saying? JK, fine. The movie will eventually be on streaming, fear not. This movie is distributed by Focus Features and Universal Pictures, so that means it will likely go to Peacock. That's where it will be streaming for free.
But if you're not a Peacock subscriber, you will likely be able to watch it elsewhere, too. Anderson's last movie, Asteroid City, is available to rent and buy on all the typical places you can rent movies. So it's probably going to be true for this movie, too.
It probably won't actually be on those streaming platforms for a while yet because it is a theatrical release. So if you want to see it ASAP, you'll have to get to the theater.

The official logline reads: 'Guillermo del Toro adapts Mary Shelley's classic tale of Victor Frankenstein, a brilliant but egotistical scientist who brings a creature to life in a monstrous experiment that ultimately leads to the undoing of both the creator and his tragic creation.' Del Toro said while at the 2025 Cannes Film Festival that the feature is an 'emotional story' and is 'as personal as anything.'

Guillermo Del Toro's ‘Frankenstein': Everything To Know About Netflix Monster Movie
Oscar Isaac in Guillermo del Toro's "Frankenstein." Director Guillermo del Toro is unveiling the first trailer for his version of Mary Shelley's Frankenstein at Netflix TUDUM 2025 on Saturday evening. Here's what we know so far about the film. As his films Cronos, Hellboy and its sequel, Pan's Labyrinth and The Shape of Water have shown, del Toro has long shown his passion for monsters and mystical creatures. In fact, the Amphibian Man in The Shape of Water — which earned del Toro Oscars for Best Director and Best Picture as one of the film's producers — was an ode to the famed Universal Studios monster movie The Creature from the Black Lagoon. Like the Universal monster movies, del Toro's movies have skewed more toward sympathetic creatures rather than horrifying beings and it appears that his take on Frankenstein will keep in that tradition as it relates to the Monster. Discussing his approach to Frankenstein at the Cannes Film Festival in the South of France earlier this month, del Toro, in conversation with his frequent composer Alexandre Desplat, said (via Variety), 'Somebody asked me the other day, does it have really scary scenes? For the first time, I considered that. 'It's an emotional story for me. It's as personal as anything,' del Toro added. "I'm asking a question about being a father, being a son… I'm not doing a horror movie — ever. I'm not trying to do that.' Jacob Elordi and Oscar Isaac in Guillermo del Toro's "Frankenstein." Oscar Isaac stars as Dr. Victor Frankenstein in Guillermo del Toro's Frankenstein, while Mia Goth stars as his wife, Elizabeth. Jacob Elordi also stars as Frankenstein's Monster. The cast of Frankenstein also includes Christoph Waltz, Ralph Ineson, Charles Dance, Burn Gorman, Felix Kammerer, Lars Mikkelsen, David Bradley, Christian Convery and Charles Dance. Guillermo del Toro's Frankenstein does not have a trailer yet, but that is expected to be released at Netflix TUDUM 2025 on Saturday evening. Previously, a snippet of footage could be seen during a teaser trailer for the TUDUM event. Netflix previously announced that Guillermo del Toro's Frankenstein will be released in November, but the streamer did not give a specific release date. In all likelihood, the film's release date will be revealed at Netflix TUDUM 2025 on Saturday. CANNES, FRANCE - MAY 18: Guillermo Del Toro poses during the "La Leçon De Musique Alexandre Desplat ... More & Guillermo Del Toro" photocall at the 78th annual Cannes Film Festival at Palais des Festivals on May 18, 2025 in Cannes, France. (Photo by Stephane Cardinale - Corbis/Corbis via Getty Images) Since the release of Guillermo del Toro's Frankenstein is in November, Netflix appears to be positioning the film for an awards season run. As such, expect Netflix to give the film a qualifying theatrical run for the Oscars and other awards season bodies. After that, the film will premiere exclusively on Netflix. Netflix previously gave the director's stop-motion animated film, Guillermo del Toro's Pinocchio, a theatrical run before it premiered on Netflix. The film went on to earn the Best Animated Feature Oscar at the Academy Awards in 2023.
