Here's when 'Dune: Part Two' is streaming online
The sprawling sci-fi epic gets a VOD release date
Get ready to head back to the desert planet of Arrakis.
"Dune: Part Two" was a veritable force of nature at the box office since it debuted March 1, earning more than $665 million globally so far. Naturally, fans are wondering when they can skip the theaters — IMAX, preferably! — to watch the plight of Paul Atreides (Timothée Chalamet) and company at home.
Luckily, the video-on-demand digital release date for "Dune: Part Two" has been announced. There's still no word yet on the Max release date, but we've got a very good hunch about it.
'Dune: Part Two' digital release date
Denis Villeneuve's film has become the highest-grossing film of 2024 at the domestic and worldwide box office. Anyone who skipped the theater or just wants to rewatch it can do so very soon.
"Dune: Part Two" will be available to rent and purchase on digital starting April 16. Preorder now on Amazon or Apple.
The digital version features dozens of special features including four “Filmbooks” about different aspects of the movie such as their world’s scarce resource water and The Reverand Mother, in addition to several featurettes such as
An Ensemble for the Ages," "Chakobsa Training," "Creating the Fremen World," "Finding the Worlds of ‘Dune,’" "Buzz Around the New ‘Thopter,’" "Worm-Riding" and "Becoming Feyd."
When is "Dune: Part Two" coming to Max?
Most Warner Brothers Discovery films are given at least a 45-day theatrical window before they become available on either paid video-on-demand or Max. But the window doesn't apply to every movie. For example, "Barbie" hit PVOD on Sept. 12, barely a month after its theatrical release, and didn't drop on Max until December 15.

However, Warner Bros. Discovery CEO David Zaslav previously teased that "Dune: Part Two" would likely end up on Max in spring 2024. Now that we're officially in that season, and the digital release date has been announced, "Dune: Part Two" could stream on Max in late April or early May. Most likely, it may come to Max on or after May 14, which is the Blu-ray release date.
