Few films released in recent years can boast to be as unique or entertaining as Yorgos Lanthimos\u2019s Poor Things<\/a>, and so there\u2019s no surprise that it has captured the attention of awards voters.<\/p>\n

Having already picked up two major Golden Globes<\/a>, the film was only behind Oppenheimer when it came to the number of nominations from last week\u2019s BAFTA Film Awards<\/a> announcement and is well placed to continue that success into the Oscar nominations.<\/p>\n

Based on the 1992 novel of the same name by Alasdair Gray, the film boasts a superb central performance from Emma Stone as Bella Baxter, a woman seemingly revived from the dead in an audacious experiment by a madcap Scottish scientist.<\/p>\n

As her brain begins to develop at an accelerated pace, Bella is whisked off by a caddish lawyer on a European tour during which she learns all about all the flaws and inconsistencies of humanity.<\/p>\n

Given the rapturous reception to the film, you might well be interested in checking it out as we head deeper into awards season \u2013 read on for everything you need to know about how to do just that.<\/p>

How to watch Poor Things in the UK \u2013 is it streaming?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Poor Things was released for an exclusive theatrical window in UK cinemas on Friday 12th January \u2013 so at the moment, the only way to watch it is on the big screen.<\/p>\n

And as the numerous awards and nominations indicate, it\u2019s certainly worth the trip to the pictures!<\/p>\n

When will Poor Things be released on streaming in the UK?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

As with other Searchlight films, Poor Things will eventually be added to the Disney Plus library, probably around two or three months after its theatrical release.<\/p>\n

Fans can, therefore, expect to see the film on streaming at some point around March or April 2024 \u2013 <\/strong>we\u2019ll keep you updated as and when we hear any confirmation of an exact date.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, if you don\u2019t have a subscription to Disney Plus, Poor Things will also be available to rent or buy on digital platforms such as Prime Video and Google Play, probably around 45-60 days after its theatrical premiere.<\/p>\n

Is there a Poor Things DVD and Blu-ray release date?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

As yet, there is no confirmed DVD and Blu-Ray release date for the film \u2013 but the film will probably arrive on physical media around the same time as its digital release or very shortly afterward.<\/p>\n
