Alex Garland's ‘Warfare' Gets Digital Streaming Release Date
Will Poulter and D'Pharaoh Woon-A-Tai in "Warfare." A24's 'Warfare' — director Alex Garland's acclaimed follow-up to 'Civil War' — is coming soon to digital streaming. Find out when you can watch the movie at home. Warfare is co-directed and co-written by Garland and Iraq War veteran Ray Mendoza, who designed the battle scenes for Civil War. Warfare opened in theaters on April 11. The official summary for the movie reads, 'Warfare embeds audiences with a platoon of American Navy SEALs on a surveillance mission gone wrong in insurgent territory. A visceral, boots-on-the-ground story of modern warfare and brotherhood, told like never before: in real-time and based on the memory of the people who lived it.' Rated R, Warfare stars Charles Melton, Will Poulter, D'Pharaoh Woon-A-Tai, Cosmo Jarvis, Joseph Quinn, Michael Gandolfini and Kit Connor. Warfare is expected to be released on digital streaming via premium video on demand on Tuesday, May 8, according to When to Stream. While the streaming tracker is typically accurate with its PVOD reports, When to Stream noted that Warfare's studio A24 has not announced or confirmed the release date of the film on digital streaming and it is subject to change. Warfare is currently up for pre-order on Prime Video for $24.99, which will also be the film's digital purchase price. Since digital rentals are typically $5 less than purchase prices, viewers can expect to rent Warfare for $19.99 for a 48-hour period. In addition to Prime Video, Warfare will be available on a variety of different digital platforms, including AppleTV and Fandango at Home. Warfare has earned $17.1 million in North American theaters and nearly $2.1 million internationally for a worldwide box office tally of $19.2 million. The film had a $20 million production budget before prints and advertising costs, according to The Numbers. Warfare received a 93% 'fresh' rating from Rotten Tomatoes critics based on 199 reviews. The RT Critics Consensus for the film reads, 'Narratively cut to the bone and geared up with superb filmmaking craft, Warfare evokes the primal terror of combat with unnerving power.' The film also received a 93% 'fresh' rating on RT's Popcornmeter based on 2,500-plus verified user ratings. The audience summary for the movie on RT reads, 'Warfare viscerally places you in the trenches with bone-crunching realism, honoring the soldier experience while simultaneously philosophizing on the impossibility of their sacrifice.' Warfare is expected to be released on PVOD on May 8.

It List spring movie guide: Michael B. Jordan, Florence Pugh and the stars stepping out of their comfort zones with new movies
Welcome to the It List Spring Guide, where we share our picks for the best in entertainment. Catch the weekly It List here for the latest releases that we can't wait to watch, stream, listen to, read and binge. Spring isn't quite blockbuster season, but it isn't awards season either. Movies released in this time frame often fall into a hard-to-define middle ground. For that reason, it can be the perfect time for actors to try something new. Whether they're prestigious award winners dabbling in action films or internet darlings trying gritty new roles, we rounded up the stars who seem to be challenging their comfort zone. Will Poulter is everywhere Will Poulter and Daisy Edgar-Jones in On Swift Horses. (Sony Pictures Classics/Courtesy Everett Collection) Upcoming projects: Death of a Unicorn is in theaters March 28, Warfare is in theaters April 11 and On Swift Horses is in theaters April 25. What to know: It'll be tricky to go to the theaters this season and not see a poster with Will Poulter's face on it. He's starring in a horror comedy, a war drama and a historical romance that all hit theaters in March and April. How these roles are different: Poulter has come a long way from playing the goofy younger brother in We're the Millers. He's still goofy at times, but this spring, he's out to prove that he can be an action star and a romantic villain, too. D'Pharaoh Woon-A-Tai can do it all D'Pharaoh Woon-A-Tai attends the premiere of Warfare. (Stewart Cook/A24 via Getty Images) Upcoming projects: Hell of a Summer opens in theaters on April 4 and Warfare opens in theaters on April 11. What to know: D'Pharaoh Woon-A-Tai stands out in two ensemble casts for vastly different reasons: In a satirical slasher set at a summer camp, he's a whimsical cool kid. In a gritty drama based on a true story of warfare, he's stoic in the face of unimaginable horrors. How these roles are different: Woon-A-Tai made a name for himself in the dramedy series Reservation Dogs, but as he told Yahoo Entertainment, as his star rises, he doesn't want to be pinned down to any one genre. Finn Wolfhard is in his auteur era Finn Wolfhard in Hell of a Summer. (Neon/Courtesy Everett Collection) Upcoming project: Hell of a Summer is in theaters April 4. What to know: Best known for playing a teenager terrorized by evil forces in franchises like Ghostbusters, Stranger Things and It, Finn Wolfhard knows a thing or two about horror. He stars in the satirical slasher Hell of a Summer, which he also co-wrote and co-directed. How this role is different: Wolfhard's acting in Hell of a Summer references many of his past characters, but he's out to prove that he's mastered horror enough to satirize it both in front of and behind the camera. Viola Davis is undefinable Viola Davis in G20. (Ilze Kitshoff/Amazon Prime Video/Courtesy Everett Collection) Advertisement Upcoming projects: G20 starts streaming on Prime Video April 10. What to know: Viola Davis stars as the president of the United States who must defend her family when terrorists take over the G20 summit in South Africa. We'll be seeing her doing a lot of stunts in a gorgeous red dress. How this role is different: As Timothée Chalamet said, Davis is one of the greats. She doesn't have to prove anything — though she's currently making the case that she can do anything any time. Meghann Fahy gets gritty Meghann Fahy in Drop. (Universal Pictures/Courtesy Everett Collection) Upcoming project: Drop is in theaters April 11. What to know: Meghann Fahy stole the show in The Perfect Couple and The White Lotus playing sublimely cool women with a knack for leisure. In Drop, she plays against type as a nervous widowed mother who's terrorized by mysterious messages. How this role is different: Instead of playing a deliciously wealthy person with a dark twist, she's leading with darkness, launching her bid to escape typecast purgatory. Rami Malek returns to action Rami Malek in The Amateur. (John Wilson/20th Century Studios/Courtesy Everett Collection) Upcoming projects: The Amateur is in theaters April 11. What to know: Rami Malek plays a CIA cryptographer who embarks on a one-man mission to avenge his wife's death in The Amateur — his first lead role since playing Freddie Mercury in Bohemian Rhapsody. How this role is different: Deciding what to do with your time after winning an Oscar is an exciting problem to have. He's played a Bond villain before, but Malek is out to prove he can lead an action flick. Michael B. Jordan plays the villain Michael B. Jordan attends the premiere of The Fire Inside in 2024. () Upcoming projects: Sinners opens in theaters April 18. What to know: We don't know much about Sinners yet, besides the fact that Michael B. Jordan plays twin brothers, and in the trailer, at least one of them appears to be a vampire. How this role is different: Jordan played a villain in Black Panther, but it's been a while since we've done anything but root for him onscreen. We'll see if he can escape his own likeability and take a sinister turn — or if we'll keep rooting for him in his newfound villainy. Florence Pugh powers up Florence Pugh in Thunderbolts*. (Marvel/Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures/Courtesy Everett Collection) Advertisement Upcoming projects: Thunderbolts* opens in theaters on May 2. What to know: This isn't Florence Pugh's first Marvel movie, but it's her first time leading one. Thunderbolts* is about a group of antiheroes on a dangerous mission. How to watch them: We know Pugh can win accolades and boost a blockbuster ensemble, but this could be a career-defining role that sends her on a path similar to Scarlett Johansson's — ping-ponging between prestige roles and box office hits.
