The Fabelmans rent online release date latest

Steven Spielberg gives us a glimpse of his past in his latest film and here’s everything we know about The Fabelmans rent online release date. The semi-autobiographic drama came out in cinemas in North America over the winter holidays, but the UK release isn’t scheduled until January 27th, 2024.

This will inevitably have an impact on when the online rental will be available in the UK, and then there’s the box office success to take into account. Home premier early access will be the earliest option, but then there will be a chunky wait for the regular price rental. We’ll take you through all of the details on the various release dates in the sections below.

It’s essentially the director’s ode to his teenage years and obsession with film-making from an early age. It’s set during the 1950s with a story that follows Sammy Fabelman as he learns the art and gets his first job, despite his father’s dismissal of his efforts to break into the movie industry.

Relative newcomer, Gabriel LaBelle, stars as Sammy alongside Michelle Williams (Venom 2) as his mum Mitzi and Paul Dano (The Batman) as his dad Burt. Seth Rogan completes the main cast as Benny, Burt’s best friend who councils Sammy in the face of his dad’s lack of respect for film making.

There are obviously other possible ways to watch the film outside of the cinema in addition to The Fabelman’s rent online release date, so we’ll cover these in the final section. To start things off, we’ll go through the early access options like Home Premier on Amazon Prime, and then cover the latest on the standard options.

Early access rental (UK and North America)

If you’re looking for your first opportunity to watch The Fabelmans at home it’ll be early access or home premier rental. This is usually around 45-60 days after the cinematic release date in the UK and as early as 30 days in North America, depending on how well the film does at the box office.

The Spielberg film came out in theaters in North America on the 11th November 2022, so for US audiences it’s already available to buy and rent online. For British film lovers, it isn’t due out in cinemas in the UK until the 27th January, which means that the home premier rental probably won’t land until mid-March.

This will give you the opportunity to rent The Fabelmans from retailers like Amazon Prime, iTunes and the Google Play Store with early access online. You’ll also be able to buy the digital version of the film around the same period thanks to the recent changes to the way they release home entertainment nowadays. As you might expect, this will be at a higher price than the DVD, Blu-ray and standard digital version, but it’ll be available a lot earlier.

The Fabelmans rent online release date

The Fabelmans has arrived just in time for award nomination season, especially the Academy Awards, and it looks like it could land a fair few. This should give it a better chance at the box office in the UK, as well the standard digital rental release date that will follow.

This should be around February-March 2023 in North America, but with the later run in UK cinemas you’ll have to wait for to get to rent it. It looks like it’ll be too late for Easter for DVD, Blu-ray and digital purchase, so you should aim for around May to early-June for these.

This means that the cheaper price to rent online in the United Kingdom will be a week or two after the DVD, Blu-ray and standard price digital purchase. If you track that forward the the UK estimate is mid-May to late-June for Amazon Prime Video, iTunes and the Google Play store at the lower price point.

Obviously, we’ll keep you posted on the specific date as it’s officially announced, but this has a big dependency on the impact of The Fabelmans on the box office. The only other thing to take into account is that some films are getting their standard rental pulled or delayed a little randomly, so we’ll try to keep tabs on this as well.

To get an idea about how this has been working out, Black Adam wasn’t available to rent in the UK the last time we reviewed the details and it had a release date on both sides of the Atlantic in October 2022. There are a lot of factors that will influence the home premier and standard rental, so we’ll do everything we can to keep tabs on it ll and update you here.

Where can I watch the film online?

As things stand, there are no online streaming plans for The Fabelmans, but it’s only a matter of time before it heads in that direction. Reviews have been positive and with the prospect of Academy Award nominations it’s got a lot going for it for big stream numbers.

In the UK it’s probably a toss up between Netflix and Amazon Prime Video, but this would inevitably be a timed availability. Disney+ is probably the least likely with its long arms focused elsewhere. The only guaratee at the moment is to watch online with Amazon Prime, iTunes and the Google Play Store early access and rental (details above).

Is it possible to watch The Fabelmans on Hulu?

Unlike the other streaming possibilities above, there is a link to Hulu, so this could be the strongest contender for The Fabelmans. The film is distributed by Universal Pictures and with Hulu being part owned by NBC Universal it’s the best lead we have at the moment.
