Nothing official on 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Top Gun: Maverick coming to Paramount Plus just yet. While the likes of 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:The Lost City and 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Sonic the Hedgheog 2 spin-dashed their way onto the streamer just a shade over 45ಌ days from their theatrical release, Tom Cruise’s big-budget blockbuster is set to take the opposite approach.

(H/T ), the film is very much locked-in to an exclusive 120-day theatrical window. That means it wouldn&rs♓quo;t come to str🦄eaming, nor would it be available to rent or buy on digital storefronts, until that period has elapsed. 

Top Gun: Maverick was released on May 27. If the 120-day window holds, it won’t stream on Paramount Plus until September 24 at the earliest. That's quite a wait, but undoubtedly worth it from the perspective of Tom Cruise and those looking to maintain the cinema experience for as long as possible. It should also be available i👍n both the UK and Europe, given the streamer's launch in the region on June𝐆 22.

Another update, though, suggests that 120-day⛎ window cou🀅ld be shortened.

"The last I saw with Paramount was that the window is 120 days, but Paramount would like to go back to Tꦺom Cruise and negotiate a shorter window in order to capture some of the home video revenue, whether th✃at's on premium video on demand, whether it's on their streaming service Paramount Plus, yet to be determined," Hollywood insider Matthew Belloni said on his podcast, . 

If that's the case, it could aim for around 90 days in August but, with the fi🍰lming nearing $1 billion at the box office, there's no real incentive for Cruise to negotiate anything before 120 days.
