Alien: Romulus Streaming, VOD, DVD Release Date

It has been seven years since the last Xenomorph franchise installment was released. Alien: Covenant was not well-received, causing Hollywood to lose some faith in the universe. However, the franchise has not been abandoned. Alien: Romulus, directed by Fede Álvarez, offers a fresh start for the series.

Cailee Spaeny, known for her roles in Priscilla and Civil War, stars as Rain Carradine in the film. Along with the spaceship’s crew, her character must fight a mysterious predator to the death.

The best way to experience the battle against the Xenomorph is in the cinema. If you’re interested in when the film will be available on streaming services, VOD, and DVD, continue reading our guide.

When will Alien: Romulus be released on VOD?

The digital release date for the latest Alien franchise installment is currently unknown. Typically, it takes one and a half to two months for a 20th Century Studios film to appear on VOD after its theatrical release.

While we await the official premiere date, we predict that Alien: Romulus will be available for purchase or rent in early to mid-October 2024.

When could Alien: Romulus be released on streaming services?

As a 20th Century Studios film, the new Alien movie will likely debut on Hulu in the US and Disney+ in the UK. The release date depends on the film’s performance at the global box office.

If Alien: Romulus proves successful, it may arrive on Hulu and Disney+ about a month after its digital release, similar to Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes. However, if the film underperforms, the wait time for a streaming release could be shorter, as seen with The First Omen, which appeared on Hulu and Disney+ just two days after its VOD release.

Based on this information, Alien: Romulus is expected to land on Hulu and Disney+ sometime between late October and early November 2024.

Hulu subscriptions start at $7.99 per month for an ad-supported version, while Disney+ basic subscriptions with ads cost £7.99 per month.

When could Alien: Romulus be released on DVD/Blu-ray?

Following the pattern of other 20th Century Studios films, Alien: Romulus is likely to be released on DVD and Blu-ray approximately a month after its streaming debut – in late November 2024.
