Paul Rudd & Jack Black’s Anaconda Gets Netflix Streaming Release Date

by

Jack Black and Paul Rudd star in a new, action-packed jungle adventure that’s coming to Netflix. The funny monster movie, part of a popular series, will officially premiere on the streaming service soon.

Anaconda makes streaming debut on Netflix this month

The movie Anaconda is getting a fresh start with a reboot premiering on Netflix on March 25th. This will be the first time the film is available on a major streaming service. It was originally released in theaters last Christmas and has been available for digital purchase or rental since then.

Right now, viewers can still rent or buy the film through platforms like Prime Video.

Tom Gormican directed and co-wrote the screenplay for a new movie that playfully reimagines the “Anaconda” franchise, rather than just making a straightforward remake. The film centers around four friends navigating midlife crises who decide to recapture their youth by filming a remake of their beloved original “Anaconda” movie.

A group ventures into the Amazon rainforest to film a movie they’re excited about, but their trip quickly takes a dangerous turn. What began as a lighthearted adventure soon becomes a desperate fight for survival when they encounter a massive and deadly anaconda, turning their filmmaking project into complete chaos.

The film boasts a fantastic cast, with Jack Black and Paul Rudd taking the lead. They’re joined by talented actors like Steve Zahn, Thandiwe Newton, Daniela Melchior, and Selton Mello. Plus, you’ll spot some familiar faces including Ice Cube, Ione Skye, and Ben Lawson. And for dedicated fans, there’s a special treat: Jennifer Lopez makes a brief appearance as herself!

Okay, so I’ve been keeping an eye on how the reboot’s doing, and it’s actually holding its own at the box office! It’s made around $134.3 million globally on a $45 million budget, which is seriously impressive. Interestingly, that’s almost exactly what the original Anaconda made back in the day, and that film had a similar budget, according to Box Office Mojo. Now, the reviews? They’re all over the place. Rotten Tomatoes gives it a 48% score, which is…middling. But over on IMDb, it’s sitting at a respectable 5.6 out of 10, so people seem to be enjoying it more than the critics are.
