When the 'Wicker' Movie Will Be Available to Stream and How to Watch

Has Wicker tempted you to the movie theater this October? Or, at the bare minimum, has it tempted you to look up when and where Wicker will be streaming? Here’s what we know and what we can guess about how to weave Wicker into your next (or your next, next, next) movie night at home.Based on Ursula Wills’ short story “The Wicker Husband,” the movie is about a woman played by Olivia Colman and a man literally made of wicker played by Alexander Skarsgard. The buzz is buzzing, partially because romantasy is so popular right now, and partially because the premise raises so many logistical, moral, and anatomical questions.How can I watch Wicker now?Wicker was released in theaters on October 23, 2026. There is a popcorn bucket, FYI. That’s an incentive, yes?GET TICKETS NOWWhere will Wicker be streaming?The distributer, Black Bear Pictures, is also behind movies like Nyad, Sing Sing, Train Dreams, I Want Your Sex, and Wildwood. Some of those films are streaming on Netflix, so that’s a good educated guess, but some others on Amazon or other services. We’ll have to wait and see.Typically, a new movie drops on a streaming service 3-4 months after its theatrical release day. So that’ll be January or February of 2027. Just in time for Valentine’s Day... I see how it is! But before that, you’ll be able to rent it PVOD-style. That will probably happen in November, maybe early December.What to watch before Wicker drops:If you want to learn more about the filmmakers, you can stream directors Eleanor Wilson and Ale Huston Fischer’s previous collaboration Save Yourselves! on Netflix. It is nothing like Wicker, but it is a twisted romance of sorts starring Sunita Mani and John Reynolds.For a similar vibe, check out the underrated romance between a woman played by Tilda Swinton and a genie played by Idris Elba in Three Thousand Years of Longing. There’s also Sally Hawkins and Doug Jones in The Shape of Water. My Colman twisted romance recommendation is The Favourite. It’s not niche. She won an Oscar. But it’s so good! And my Skarsgard twisted romance recommendation is Pillion.Or, you know, the paranormal and/or monster romance basics: Beauty and the Beast, Warm Bodies, Ghost, Phantom of the Opera, Venom, Shrek...
