Quick Summary
Wolfs, the new movie starring George Clooney and Brad Pitt, will be available to stream on Apple TV+ from 27 September – just a week after a limited theatrical release.
It was originally set for a wider run in cinemas before hitting the streaming service.
Apple TV+ will offer George Clooney and Brad Pitt's movie reunion to stream earlier than originally thought, with a planned theatrical release being cut back.
Wolfs sees the duo on screen together for the first time since 2008's Burn After Reading, and seemingly trades-off the pair's undoubted chemistry, which made the Ocean's Trilogy so much fun.
Distributed by Apple, it was originally set for a lengthy run in cinemas – much like Napoleon and Killers of the Flower Moon – but has now been scaled back. It'll be released on a limited theatrical scale on 20 September and then appear in full on Apple TV+ a week later.
The streaming service will offer the movie from Friday 27 September.
Some might see that as a troubling sign for the crime caper, but reports based on early screenings suggest it's actually rather good. Deadline (via 9to5Mac) even suggests that initial audience responses have been so good, a sequel is already planned.
"With George and Brad’s remarkable and engaging chemistry under Jon Watts’ extraordinary direction, Wolfs blends all the great elements of comedy, action, and drama into a hugely entertaining movie that will leave audiences ready for what’s next," said Apple Original Films head of features, Matt Dentler.
The movie features Pitt and Clooney as "wolf" fixers – experts in covering up murders and crimes. Each of them usually work alone but are forced to team up on a specific job – cue mayhem and the sharp banter the actors are renowned for.
