When could Bad Boys: Ride or Die be released on VOD?
Sony hasn’t yet revealed any exact date for the film landing on digital platforms. However, based on typical releases from the brand it takes around 45 days from the film landing in cinemas.
If Bad Boys 4 follows that trend, it should arrive on digital around 22 July 2024. However, if it continues to perform well in theatres, this date could be pushed back.
We expect that it’ll be on platforms such as Amazon Prime Video, Google Play, YouTube and more.
Will Bad Boys: Ride or Die come to Netflix?
Yes – Sony has an exclusive deal with Netflix to ensure that its movies come to this streaming platform first, rather than rivals such Disney+ or Max.
However, typically this can take around six months. There are exceptions – Madame Web only took around three months, but that’s expected considering the film’s less than warm reception.
Nonetheless, we might not see Bad Boys 4 on Netflix until December 2024. If that changes, we will update this article.
When will Bad Boys: Ride or Die be released on DVD/Blu-ray?
Typically, physical copies of Sony films hit shelves around a month after they are released digitally.
If Bad Boys 4 hits our prediction of arriving on VOD platforms from the end of July, we should see it land on DVD and Blu-ray around August 2024.
