When Will Wolf Man Release On Digital?
A Digital Release Will Come Quicker
The earliest option to watchWolf Manat home will come through its digital release. Universal typically makes its movies available to buy or rent on PVOD after roughly 27 days, but the gap for horror films is only 18 days. This would mean thatWolf Man’s digital release should come in February 2025, with the exact timing potentially depending on the film’s box office performance. That would still giveWolf Mana few weeks to find business in theaters before providing a digital/streaming option to consumers.
