Where To Watch Fly Me To The Moon: Showtimes & Streaming Status

Summary Johansson and Tatum star in a fictional NASA comedy about a faked moon landing.

Apple Studios initially planned an exclusive streaming release, but changed to theaters after positive test screening scores.

Theatrical release on July 12, 2024, followed by Apple TV+ streaming in October 2024 and digital release in August 2024.

Scarlett Johansson and Channing Tatum unite for a NASA movie, and there are options for where to watch Fly Me To The Moon. Hollywood has put various spins on the space race over the years, such as Apollo 11, The Right Stuff, and Hidden Figures bringing all-star casts together to recreate portions of the true story. Fly Me To The Moon takes the Apollo 11 mission in a different direction, as Greg Berlanti's romantic comedy tells the fictional story of NASA recording a faked moon landing as a backup in case the actual moon landing mission was not a success.

As an Apple Studios production, how and where Fly Me To The Moon would be released changed over time. Apple originally envisioned the film as an exclusive title for its streaming service Apple TV+, with the star power of Johansson and Tatum bolstering the space race film to have great streaming potential. This plan changed after the studio saw Fly Me To The Moon's test screening scores soar (via Variety), supporting the idea that it could succeed in theaters. That led to the final plans for the movie's release.

When Will Fly Me To The Moon Release On Streaming?

It Will Stream On Apple TV+

Close

No release date for Fly Me To The Moon's streaming debut has been confirmed, but the film is expected to debut on Apple TV+ at the appropriate time. Apple's limited experience releasing movies in theaters before streaming leaves only a few examples to help predict the outcome. It took 100 days for Napoleon, 81 days for Killers of the Flower Moon, and 70 days for Argylle to release on Apple TV+ after debuting in theaters. This could mean that Fly Me To The Moon's streaming release date will be in October 2024.

Sony was only involved in Napoleon, which had the longest wait and the best box office of Apple's previous movies

Those wanting to watch Fly Me To The Moon at home without a streaming service subscription can do so through its digital release. Apple still makes its movies available on the major PVOD services for purchase or rent. Apple waits 41 days on average between a film's theatrical and digital releases. This creates a projection that Fly Me To The Moon's digital release date could be in August 2024. The timing could shift if Fly Me To The Moon manages to become a box office success.
