Materialists On OTT: Where To Watch Dakota Johnson, Chris Evans And Pedro Pascal's Film
Last Updated: Celine Song's romantic triangle drama Materialists is all set for OTT release after theatrical run. After a theatrical run that turned heads with its stellar cast, Materialists, starring Dakota Johnson, Chris Evans and Pedro Pascal, is now heading to digital platforms. Directed by Past Lives filmmaker Celine Song, this love-triangle drama opened in theatres on June 13 and is now gearing up for its OTT debut. Here's when and where you can watch it, along with everything else you need to know about the film. When, Where And How To Watch Materialists The makers, A24, confirmed to USA TODAY that Materialists will be available for purchase digitally starting Tuesday, July 22. Viewers can rent the film on major platforms including Apple TV, Prime Video, Google TV/YouTube Movies. In the US, it will also stream via Fandango at Home and local cable on-demand services. Despite its digital release, the film continues to screen in select theatres across the country. What Is Materialists About? Set in the heart of New York City, Materialists follows Lucy Mason (Dakota Johnson), a top-tier matchmaker who's great at finding love for others but struggles with her own. Torn between her flawed ex-boyfriend John Finch (Chris Evans) and the seemingly perfect, wealthy suitor Harry Castillo (Pedro Pascal), Lucy's story unfolds in a whirlwind of emotion, timing, and introspection. The film's urban backdrop complements the intimacy of her personal crisis. Star Cast And Crew Apart from Johnson, Evans and Pascal, the film features Zoe Winters, Marin Ireland, Dasha Nekrasova, Joseph Lee and John Magaro in supporting roles. Materialists is written and directed by Celine Song, marking her sophomore project after Past Lives. It's produced by Killer Films and 2 AM, released in the US by A24, and distributed internationally by Sony Pictures Releasing International. Mixed Reviews, Strong Chemistry Despite its promising premise and star power, Materialists opened to mixed critical reception. While some found the plot too conventional, others praised the chemistry between the leads. The film, however, earned $12 million on its opening day, making it A24's third-highest opening to date. While Materialists may not have been the blockbuster some hoped for, especially following the underwhelming reception of Dakota Johnson's Madame Web, its emotional core, stylised direction and heartfelt performances continue to spark conversations. Currently, the film is not available on subscription-based platforms and can only be accessed via purchase or rent on select digital platforms. view comments Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.

Start the week with a film: In ‘One of Them Days', two women go to hilarious lengths to pay the rent
Strange things happen on the first day of every month, it is said. And strange indeed is the day that awaits a waitress and her artist roommate. Dreux (Keke Palmer) shares her apartment in Los Angeles with her close friend Alyssa (SZA) and Alyssa's feckless boyfriend Keshawn (Joshua Neal). The ceiling is threatening to fall off and the air-conditioning doesn't work, but it is all the women can afford. Keshawn fritters away the money set aside for the rent, giving Dreux and Alyssa until nightfall to find a solution. Worse still, Keshawn is cheating on Alyssa with Berniece (Aziza Scott). One of Them Days was released in January in the United States to box office success. After a limited run in India, the film can be rented from BookMyShow Stream, YouTube Movies, Google Play and Apple TV+. Lawrence Lamont's female buddy comedy, based on a superb script by Syreeta Singleton, is the kind of culture-specific movie that is also universal. The travails of Dreux and Alyssa, who get increasingly desperate to gather the money needed to prevent eviction, are hilarious in an absurdist way while also being rooted in the American Black experience. Keke Palmer – the lovely actor from Jordan Peele's Nope (2022) – and SZA – the singer making her acting debut – are in perfect sync as the hapless heroines trying to make it through the longest day of their lives. The dynamic between Dreux and Alyssa is relatable, touching and always zany. The friends who are in peril of falling out with each other are accompanied on their adventures by an equally nutty bunch of characters. Berniece is as foxy as she is frightening. Patrick Cage plays the hunky Maniac, who distracts an always loquacious Dreux. Stand-up comedian Katt Williams has a cameo as a doomsday prophet. The movie's centrepiece revolves around an extended sequence in which Dreux and Alyssa apply for a loan with credit scores so low that the staffer splits her sides. As a viewer, it is impossible not to join in. Play 'Hazaaron Khwaishein Aisi' is an ode to personal and political passions
