Where To Watch Death Of A Unicorn: Showtimes & Streaming Status

A24’s latest film is Death of a Unicorn, and the movie will be hitting theaters before it becomes available on streaming and digital. The 2025 film is the most recent in a long line of A24 horror movies to ᴀssemble a star-studded cast with a fascinating premise, genre-blending its fantastical premise with comedy. Representing the horror genre is one of Hollywood’s most exciting scream queens: Jenna Ortega, with beloved comedic actor Paul Rudd as her co-star. Midsommar’s Will Poulter is also on the roster, with Ari Aster as a producer and Alex Scharfman directing.

Death of a Unicorn’s reception has been primarily positive so far, with Screen Rant’s review citing its performances and humor as the primary highlight. The film follows a father and daughter who accidentally hit and kill a unicorn with their car, leading to the unicorn’s parents seeking vengeance in return. Tonally, it seems a bit like this year’s version of Cocaine Bear, where it might offer some absurd humor, famous actors having fun in their roles, and the usual A24 horror elements.

Death Of A Unicorn Releases In Theaters On March 28, 2025

A24’s New Movie Will Be Released Exclusively In Theaters First

A24 has marked Friday, March 28, as the release date for Death of a Unicorn, though some theaters might offer Thursday night previews. The movie is R-rated, as is the case with many of A24’s horror releases, and has a relatively short runtime of 104 minutes, including credits. The distribution company has become regarded for its critically acclaimed horror pieces, but it’s been rare for A24 films to be box office juggernauts. That said, it could carve out a place for itself in a month with limited compeтιтion, as last week’s Snow White and The Alto Knights have been underperforming.

When Will Death Of A Unicorn Release On Streaming?

A24’s Movies Typically Release On Max

As is generally the case with A24 movies, Death of a Unicorn’s first streaming platform should be Max, and the movie could be available on the platform sometime in July or August. Of course, this is subject to change, but previous A24 releases can be used to estimate. For example, 2024’s Love Lies Bleeding was released in early March and hit streaming in mid-July. Civil War came out in early April and hit streaming in September. The general turnaround is 4–5 months.

When Will Death Of A Unicorn Release On Digital?

A Digital Release Could Come Quick

For anyone who’s not willing to leave their house but doesn’t want to wait until the summer, Death of a Unicorn should be available for digital rental beforehand on VOD services like Apple TV, Vudu, and Amazon Prime. With the same data in mind, viewers can expect the rental to be out between 1–2 months after the theatrical release, making May our expectation.
