The Next Goal Wins streaming release date is highly anticipated, and viewers are wondering when they can start streaming the Taika Waititi sports comedy drama.
Fans are interested in seeing Next Goal Wins as the film will be based on the 2014 documentary of the same name, which focused on the efforts of Dutch-American coach Thomas Rongen and his efforts to make the weakest soccer team in the world, the American Samoa national football team qualify for the 2014 FIFA World Cup. Here’s when the film could be coming out on streaming.
When is the predicted Next Goal Wins streaming release date?
The Next Goal Wins theatrical release date is November 17, 2023. Thus, viewers can expect the Taika Waititi-directed film to drop on streaming platforms by February-March 2024.
The reason for the February-March 2024 streaming release timeframe for the sports movie is that Walt Disney Studios, which owns Searchlight Pictures, the distributor of the film, tends to put its projects on streaming platforms two to three months after the film runs in theaters.
The film’s story is based on Mike Brett and Steve Jamison’s 2014 documentary. It focuses on Dutch-American soccer coach Thomas Rongen’s efforts to lead the American Samoa national football team to qualify for the 2014 FIFA World Cup.
Directed by Taika Waititi, the film stars Michael Fassbender, Elisabeth Moss, Will Arnett, Frankie Adams, Kaimana, Oscar Knightley, David Fane, Beulah Koale, and Lehi Makesi Falepapalangi.
