A Real Pain is piquing interest. It chronicles the story of two cousins, David and Benji, who travel to Poland to visit their late grandmother’s home. As their adventures begin, things take a complicated turn, putting their relationship to the test. Since the film’s limited theatrical release, fans have grown curious about its online streaming date. So, is A Real Pain’s online release date out?
Here is everything you need to know about the digital streaming of the comedy-drama.
When will A Real Pain get its online digital release date?
As of now, A Real Pain’s online digital release date has not been revealed.
The film was released in the US on November 1, 2024. However, its theatrical release was limited to just 12 theaters, likely due to its small budget. Despite this limited release, A Real Pain managed to surpass the $1 million mark within two weeks. (via Collider)
The film opened to critical acclaim during its early premiere at the Sundance Film Festival on January 20, 2024. Critics praised the film for its remarkable storytelling, direction, and mesmerizing performances. At the time of writing, it has gained an IMDb rating of 7.6 out of 10 and 96% Tomatometer on Rotten Tomatoes.
A Real Pain’s critical appreciation might have helped in its box office collection irrespective of a limited theatrical release. So, it is possible seeing a positive response might influence makers to delay its online streaming release date. Additionally, the dramedy’s production house Searchlight Pictures’s ventures are known to hit the digital window 60 to 80 days after its theatrical release.
In the past, one of its films Next Goal Wins followed a similar pattern. It was available digitally after 60 days of its release on November 17, 2023. So, A Real Pain might follow the same procedure and will be available online by early January. However, fans must wait for confirmation from the makers and the digital streaming platform.
