Netflix, the streaming giant that never sleeps, is constantly offering a wide variety of content to its global audience. A common question among subscribers is whether a particular movie or TV series is available on the platform. This article explores the most recent discussions surrounding “No Hard Feelings” and Netflix availability.
Is No Hard Feelings on Netflix?
While a specific date is not yet known, based on the film’s release schedule, No Hard Feelings is expected to begin streaming on Netflix sometime around October 2023 and will remain there for 18 months. Sony has a secondary deal with Disney, so after the 18-month window, No Hard Feelings will also (or instead) begin streaming on a Disney platform.
Given the film’s R rating, it will likely be Hulu in the US rather than Disney Plus. From there, the streaming of No Hard Feelings will depend on the film’s performance. Given its actual theatrical release (which will be difficult to achieve after 2020), the film’s outlook is favorable.
No Hard Feelings is currently not available on VOD
The VOD distribution of No Hard Feelings took place on August 15, 2023. This came just a few months after the film’s theatrical release in June 2023, continuing Sony Pictures’ aggressive release strategy, which has proven successful in the past.
The film is not yet available to rent or purchase on home media, but that should change in the first half of September. Popular media retailers such as Prime Video, Google Play, and Apple TV currently offer No Hard Feelings for digital purchases for $19.99.
- Main Video – $19.99
- Google Play – $19.99
- Apple TV – $19.99
- Vudu – $19.99
- RANK8 – $19.99
Disgusting that you don’t have a grudge at the box office?
R-rated romantic comedies were all the rage in the early 2000s, but their box office performance has declined significantly over the past decade. Movies in this genre have become repetitive and predictable, and the concept of a steamy summer rom-com has become less appealing to audiences each year.
No Hard Feelings changed that with its box office record for the 2020s. The film’s domestic opening was $15 million (according to Box Office Mojo), and its current domestic gross is $50 million. No Hard Feelings’ worldwide total is $85 million, a phenomenal debut for a modern R-rated comedy.
Given that No Hard Feelings had a budget of around $45 million, its box office receipts make it a financial success, meaning that more R-rated comedies, and likely more starring Jennifer Lawrence, will be released in the years to come. The film’s success is reflected in its reception, which has a 71% critics’ score and an 87% audience rating on Rotten Tomatoes.
Overall, it seems that a theatrical release was the best option for No Hard Feelings, and its availability on VOD and future release on home media and streaming services will undoubtedly elevate the Stupnitsky film to an even higher level.
