When Is Alex Garland's ‘Warfare' Coming To Streaming?
Director Alex Garland's Civil War follow-up Warfare is new in theaters. How long will it be before the film arrives on streaming?
Rated R, Warfare plays in Thursday previews before opening in theaters in wide release on Friday. The summary for the film 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.'
Co-directed by Garland and Iraq War veteran Ray Mendoza, Warfare stars Charles Melton, Will Poulter, D'Pharaoh Woon-A-Tai, Cosmo Jarvis, Joseph Quinn and Kit Connor. Mendoza previously designed the battle scenes for Garland's Civil War.
Currently, the only way you can see Warfare is in theaters, so check local listings for showtimes.
Warfare's first stop in the home entertainment market will be on digital streaming via premium video on demand. Warfare's studio, A24, generally makes their films available on PVOD a month after they open in theaters in wide release. Since A24 is an independent studio, it often opens films in limited release before they are released wide.
Like Civil War, however, Warfare is set for a wide domestic release.
So, for example, A24's Oscar-winning historical epic The Brutalist opened in wide release on Jan. 24 before it pivoted to a PVOD release on Feb. 20.
Additionally, A24 released the Nicole Kidman erotic thriller Babygirl in theaters on Dec. 25, 2024, and it arrived on PVOD on Jan. 28.
If Warfare follows the same pattern, viewers can expect the film to debut on PVOD anytime between May 13 and May 20, since new releases on PVOD generally come out on Tuesdays.
Note: The trailer below contains swearing and scenes of violence.
Since A24 has a deal with Max to stream its films first, Warfare will first be available on the Warner Bros. Discovery platform on streaming video on demand.
Viewers can subscribe to Max for $9.99 per month with ads or $16.99 per month without ads. Also, Max has an ad-free streaming tier for $20.99 per month that features its programming in 4K Ultra HD.
Typically it takes four months for A24's films to arrive on SVOD on Max. For example, the Hugh Grant horror thriller Heretic debuted on SVOD on Max on March 7, just shy of four months after the film's theatrical release on Nov. 8, 2024.
Additionally, Nicole Kidman's Babygirl is set to arrive on Max on April 25, four months after it opened in theaters on Dec. 25, 2024.
If Warfare follows the same pattern as Heretic and Babygirl, then viewers should expect the film to arrive on SVOD on Max sometime around July 11, since new films on Max generally debut on Fridays.
Warfare is playing in Thursday previews and opens in theaters in wide release on Friday.

Obscure Old TV Shows No One Remembers
Recently, I rounded up some forgotten '90s TV shows, and there were some hidden gems in there! In the comments, BuzzFeed Community members of all ages shared obscure series from their childhoods. Here are 50 of their top responses: "Thirtysomething. Huge hit in the late '80s/early '90s. Literally so forgotten it isn't even streaming anywhere. Maybe it has something to do with the fact that it's about young boomers who have huge houses, kids, and high-paying jobs, and yet do nothing but complain about middle age and how they have to sell out to succeed. I doubt a single person could relate to it today. It was also kinda sexist. The women who were well-adjusted were the stay-at-home moms, and the independent working women had all the psychological issues." —colleend9 "Black Hole High (or if you were in the States, like me, it was Strange Days at Blake Holsey High). It was about a group of science-loving kids at a Canadian boarding school with a wormhole under their school, and they have to figure out what the local evil guy (and dad of one of the kids) wants with it. It has a surprisingly complex myth arc for a children's show, and a good twist near the end. I loved that show. It's streaming on a few different platforms in the US, including Prime." —lobster_lemon_lime "It appears that no one remembers Girlfriends. I always wanted to get Converse because of Persia White's character." —alice_follows_the_white_rabbit "Bosom Buddies had Tom Hanks and Peter Scolari. I can't recall why, but the aforementioned actors disguised themselves as women." [Note: The two male leads disguised themselves so they could live in an affordable female-only apartment building.] —pissedoffprofessor "What I Like About You. Most people forget that Amanda Bynes and Jennie Garth were on a sitcom together for four seasons on The WB." —smellyunicorn211 "There was a show on Disney Channel called The Jersey, and it was a sports show. I think it transported the wearer into the body of a pro athlete, like they were playing in the Super Bowl." —ashlucky5 "Small Wonder was a comedy science fiction about a robotics engineer and his family. He secretly builds a robot that looks like a human girl, and they disguise her as their adopted daughter, Vicki." —grouchytoaster7815 "The Young Riders. I was madly in love with every single one of those boys at 11 years old. Actually, when I was a kid, I was a huge Civil War nerd (I still am, but not to the extent I was then), and that show's time frame, being right before the Civil War, made me even more interested in it. I still see that baby face every time I see Josh Brolin in anything. He and Stephen Baldwin were my favorites." —scorp599211 "How about Fifteen (aka Hillside in Canada)? Nickelodeon's version of 90210. Damn near a Canadian copy." —rebekahj6 "There was also a show on Nickelodeon called Fifteen that I still think I might have dreamed because no one remembers it." —vividavocado85 "A Mary-Kate and Ashley forgotten gem — So Little Time!" —emilyv11 "I have something really obscure for you guys. There was this TV show in the '90s about a guy who was a journalist, and then he gets fired but decides to reapply to the same newspaper, but now dressed up as a woman. It lasted for a season. The name of the TV show was Ask Harriet." —kpride895 "Dark Shadows had a brief reboot in 1991, which was good but unintentionally funny for various scenes, like when one female lead named Victoria was transported back in time. She ended up being suspected as a witch because of the tags in her clothing, which had symbols for stuff like dry clean only or iron on low." —henrylovedog "There's the Beverly Hills, 90210 spinoff show The Heights. Most people recall the song ('How Do You Talk To An Angel') but not the actual show." —henrylovedog "A sci-fi show with Lori Singer — VR.5. It's about a telephone lineworker who can enter a type of virtual reality, where she can interact with other people." —radpotato92 "One show I've never seen on these lists is Sisters. It was a great series with an amazing cast!" —happypumpkin137 "There was a New Kids on the Block cartoon (they had a random dog sidekick instead of a more believable roadie)." —justjen0178 "No one I know seems to remember the show Wake, Rattle, and Roll. The theme song is my morning alarm. 😬" —tcfranco "Kidd Video, anyone? '80s cartoon where a live-action band got transported into a cartoon universe called the Flipside. Popular songs of the day were played throughout the episodes, and the band would have one of their own music videos towards the end. I freakin' loved it." —laughingclown4451 "Way back in 1990, Carol Burnett came out with a series — Carol & Company. It was a great concept. This was a sitcom. Every week, Carol Burnett and the cast would play different characters in different cities. The people and places in the current week's episode were not the same people and places in last week's episode." —cutepenguin77 "Can't Hurry Love. I was only 6 when it was on the air, but I definitely remember it. It was kind of a Friends-type of show, but MUCH better. Mariska Hargitay? Yes, please!!!" —peacefulpotato62 "Our Hero. It's about a girl who was trying to be a blogger before YouTube, LOL. She was making a hand-drawn magazine about her day-to-day life. Loved it." —liraelkl "As a tween, I remember the show Herman's Head. It definitely inspired the recent movie Inside Out, but it was tongue-in-cheek, raunchy, and hilarious!" —clevertable50 "Ok, Sports Night. I might literally be the only person who remembers. Imagine if Aaron Sorkin wrote about a fictional ESPN (he did)." —silkytortoise5038 "One of my favorite shows no one remembers is The Odyssey. It's about a boy who falls into a coma, but he ends up in a fantasy world in his mind and tries to get back. Ryan Reynolds is the antagonist. I loved this show very much, but people don't remember it." —liraelkl "Ghostbusters the cartoon (The Real Ghostbusters). I'd fake sick to stay home and watch it." —progamer795 "Dark Skies starring Eric Close, Megan Ward, and J. T. Walsh. 'History as we know it is a lie.'" —dizzytrash587 "This one is from the '80s. USA Network had an all-night variety show. It was called Night Flight. Nobody remembers that." —grouchylight4345 "I always come to these looking to see if anyone else remembers Seven Days — a show about a CIA agent who goes back in time seven days to prevent bad things from happening." —sparklylion861 "Does ANYONE remember What-a-Mess? I just had to Google to make sure it wasn't some weird false memory I'd created, LOL." —emilyv11 "100 Deeds for Eddie McDowd, where he gets turned into a dog and has to do 100 good deeds before getting turned back..." —larisadavis "Dangerous Women was 🔥. Casper Van Dien was in it." —odddog14 "Strange Empire. It was a Canadian show full of cool female leads set in the plains, I think, circa the passing of the 'Indian Act' in 1876. It seemed like there were some really interesting storylines emerging about Indigenous people and women before it got cancelled." —deadpanship144 "My Secret Identity! Starring a young Jerry O'Connell." —jim9219771 "I badly miss Doctor Doctor! It's not streaming anywhere either, and it doesn't appear to have ever gotten a home video release, so unless you taped it when it was on, you can't watch it at all now. 😠" —toothlessfeline "Psi Factor: Chronicles of the Paranormal, which was a Dan Aykroyd show. They changed much of the cast after Season 1, and Matt Frewer became the star, with Michael Moriarty." —dizzytrash587 "How about Battle Creek with Dean Winters ('Mayhem' in insurance commercials)? Great show that was canceled too soon." —silkytree253 "Now, who else watched Andy Richter Controls the Universe?" —oddrocket298 "Spyder Games was one I feel like NO ONE talks about that was on MTV." —cherielovee "Popular! Whenever I bring it up, no one else has any clue what I'm talking about. It had an amazing cast — Leslie Bibb, Carly Pope, Sara Rue, and Leslie Grossman!" —denaet "I'm a fan of the forgotten cartoon Cybersix, based on the Argentinian comic about an android who fights crime at night in black leather and disguises herself as a male high school teacher during the day. Only lasted one season." —five_star "I loved a show called Second Noah. I think it got two seasons, and I've never met anyone other than my sister who watched it." —vividavocado85 "Roar, with a young Heath Ledger and Vera Farmiga. It was an Aussie show that was broadcast in the US. It only aired for one season. I was obsessed and had the hugest crush on Heath. It's set in fifth-century Ireland and the conflict between the Celts and the invading Romans with fantasy elements. It was cheesy but fun, and not as ridiculous as Hercules with Kevin Sorbo." —amandac4b39f8d18 "Does anyone remember a show called Homefront? Set right after WWII ended, and the boys were coming home. Only two seasons, but it was so good!" —jwilliams5041311 "Does anyone remember Alien Nation? It was based on the movie, but way better. Unfortunately, it only lasted one season and ended on a cliffhanger." —smileydragon76 "Punky Brewster the cartoon (It's Punky Brewster). Used to air on Saturday mornings. No one ever remembers that show." —casualmug964 "Anyone out there remember The World of David the Gnome?! My husband and I have talked about it a hundred times, but I swear we're the only people who seem to have seen it." —fionaelkins82 "Headbangers Ball on MTV, hosted by Riki Rachtman, was tight!!" —elsag1 "This reminds me of a show called The Tribe from New Zealand. It was about a bunch of teenagers in a post-apocalyptic world following a plague that killed off all adults." —pbbt "I miss Talk Soup but with John Henson, which led me to love all those VH1 commentary shows in the early 2000s like the I Love the '70s and Best Week Ever. I miss my pop culture snark shows." —lilpeas35 And finally: "There was an Australian show that aired in Canada called The Girl From Tomorrow about a teen girl who travels back in time. She has this headband thing called a Transducer that allows her to control things. I'm not Australian, so if that show is still remembered there, Aussies, LMK." —five_star Are there any super weird "forgotten" shows you remember from decades ago?

The joke goes ‘who's buried in Grant's Tomb?' but NYers can't agree on the punchline
Don't take a good joke for Grant-ed. Most people have heard the joke 'who's buried in Grant's Tomb?' but New Yorkers and tourists at the famous Morningside Heights landmark this week couldn't agree what the punchline is. The obvious answer is the so-obvious-it-can't-be-correct 'Grant' as in Civil War general and former US President Ulysses S. Grant. But maybe it's also 'Grant and his wife' — or no one at all. Advertisement 8 Most people have heard the joke 'who's buried in Grant's Tomb?' but New Yorkers and tourists at the famous Morningside Heights landmark couldn't agree on what the punchline is. Robert Miller 8 A group about to go on a tour of Grant's Tomb, located in Riverside Park, Upper West Side. Robert Miller 'Actually, he's entombed. He's not buried!' said S.F., who was visiting the tomb on the Upper West Side on July 23, the 140th anniversary of Grant's death. Advertisement 'It's Grant and his wife, Julia,' S.F. added. 'I don't know whether his dog is in there or not.' 'Definitely not Grant, but somebody,' joked Abdullah Hashimi, 19, who was visiting the tomb from nearby Columbia University on July 23, the 140th anniversary of Grant's death. 'Just because it's Grant Tomb, it could be anybody!' 8 'Definitely not Grant, but somebody,' joked Abdullah Hashimi, 19, who was visiting the tomb from nearby Columbia University on the 140th anniversary of Grant's death. 'Just because it's Grant Tomb, it could be anybody!' Robert Miller Lifelong New Yorker Pat Sopak, 75, said the punchline has changed over the years — to maximize it's punch. Advertisement 'It's too weird. It's obvious,' Sopak said. 'It's constantly updating.' Grant was a Republican from Ohio, but lived in the Big Apple for several years. The former Union Army hero's 1885 funeral was reportedly attended by 1.5 million at a time when the city's entire population was 2 million. 8 'It's too weird. It's obvious,' Pat Sopak, 75, said about the punchline. 'It's constantly updating.'

Robert Miller Advertisement 8 The 1885 funeral was reportedly attended by 1.5 million. Robert Miller But the 150-foot-tall monument in Riverside Park didn't open until April 27, 1897, after a fundraising effort by the Grand Monument Association. Today it attracts about 110,000 visitors per year and is run by the National Parks Service. Park Ranger Miranda Allen said she's asked about 'who's buried in Grant's tomb' nearly everyday. She attributed its origins to 'You Bet Your Life,' the Groucho Marx-hosted quiz show from the 1950s and said it was written as an easy question for Marx's contestants who might need redemption. 8 Park Ranger Miranda Allen said she's asked about the joke nearly everyday. Robert Miller 8 'In order to be buried, you have to be in the ground,' Allen said. 'Since the remains are in sarcophagi, so they're actually above ground. So no one is buried in Grant's Tomb,' she said, joking the correct answer is 'no one.' Robert Miller 'However, they didn't consider the semantics of the question when they wrote it. So, when you're asked 'who's buried in Grant's Tomb?' it's easy to assume, well, it's Grant. Sometimes we'll get 'well, actually it's Grant and his wife.'' Advertisement Allen said the joke's on them though — the correct answer really is 'no one.' 'Because in order to be buried, you have to be in the ground.' Allen said. 'And given that this is a mausoleum, since the remains are in sarcophagi, so they're actually above ground. So no one is buried in Grant's Tomb.'

Official 'Peacemaker' Season 2 Trailer Hints at Multiverse Madness and Personal Demons
Summary John Cena's Christopher Smith is back, and the world is about to get a whole lot Studios, co-run byJames Gunn, unveiled the highly anticipated official trailer forPeacemakerSeason 2 at San Diego Comic-Con today. The footage confirms the show will debut onHBO Max(now Max) on Thursday, August 21, 2025, promising a wild ride through parallel dimensions and deeply personal demons. The trailer immediately plunges viewers into Peacemaker's new reality, where he seemingly discovers a 'better' parallel dimension. This isn't just about a new costume or a happier love life with Emilia Harcourt (Jennifer Holland); it's a world that subtly mirrors his own, offering a tempting escape from the baggage of Season 1. However, this newfound peace is short-lived. The idyllic parallel universe quickly proves to have its own dangers, including giant monsters. More critically, the trailer introduces Rick Flag Sr. (Frank Grillo), head of A.R.G.U.S. and father of the late Rick Flag Jr., who is hellbent on vengeance against Peacemaker. This dynamic sets up a central conflict, with Flag Sr. determined to shut down the dimensional rift that Peacemaker has stumbled into. Series creator James Gunn emphasizes that Season 2 will see a different Peacemaker. He's 'dealing with the demons he uncovered from the first season and trying to deal with them, and the world is not accepting him the way he is.' This growth (and potential regression) is central to Gunn's vision, as Smith grapples with his misguided quest for peace at all costs while trying to reconcile his past with a newfound sense of purpose. The ghost of his racist father, Auggie (Robert Patrick), will also haunt him, like a 'sour Obi-Wan Kenobi.' The Season 2 narrative reportedly takes place approximately a month after the events of DC Studios'Supermanfeature film, further integrating Peacemaker into the broader DC Universe continuity. Returning cast members include Danielle Brooks (Leota Adebayo), Freddie Stroma (Vigilante), Steve Agee (John Economos), Jennifer Holland (Emilia Harcourt), and Dee Bradley Baker (Eagly). They are joined by new additions like Sol Rodriguez and Tim Meadows, adding fresh faces to the chaotic ensemble. With James Gunn having written all eight episodes and directing three, including the premiere,PeacemakerSeason 2 promises to deliver the same unhinged humor, emotional depth, and explosive action that made its first season a fan favorite. The trailer, set to the tune of Ozzy Osbourne's 'Road Going Nowhere,' assures fans that this season will be as fun as it is pivotal for Peacemaker's journey.
