Directed by Zach Lipovsky and Adam Stein, the American supernatural horror picks up the franchise's nerve-wracking legacy—last seen in 2011—and brings it back with a vengeance. It's still going strong in theatres, but for those who skipped the big screen, it's already landed on OTT. Released on May 16, the film dropped on Prime Video on June 17, 2025. Bloodlines has become the franchise's biggest hit with a $271.7 million haul worldwide. Critics are calling it the best yet, with a solid 92% score on Rotten Tomatoes.

According to Forbes, in a recent press release from Warner Bros., the film will also be available on the paid versions of different platforms, including Fandango at Home and Movies Anywhere, for US residents. A physical release of the film is also lined up. If you prefer disc over digital, the Blu-ray, DVD, and limited-edition 4K Steelbook versions drop on July 22, and pre-orders are open on Amazon.

The story picks up with Stefani Reyes (played by Kaitlyn Santa Juana), getting nightmares about a woman named Iris, who turns out to be her maternal grandmother. Stefani is haunted by dreams where a hotel tower collapses and everyone dies, back in 1968. She travels back home to uncover the truth, and realises those visuals were not just dreams but inherited premonitions passed down from her grandmother, Iris Campbell. Once she starts digging into the family's history and meets her estranged grandmother, who dies while explaining the situation, Stefani discovers a chain of death approaching her family. Death is after her entire bloodline, and she has to break the curse before time runs out. The film keeps you hooked till the climax and has received raving reviews globally.

What goes around comes around: Tom Cruise secures THESE screens for Mission: Impossible – Final Reckoning in the West
In 2023, Tom Cruise's Mission: Impossible faced IMAX competition from Christopher Nolan's Oppenheimer. Now, Cruise has secured an exclusive three-week IMAX window for Mission: Impossible – Final Reckoning in 2025. This strategic move highlights the importance of premium formats in box office success, reversing the situation from two years prior. When Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One released back in July 2023, Tom Cruise found himself facing an unexpected and rather frustrating hurdle. Despite being one of Hollywood's most vocal advocates for the theatrical experience and premium formats like IMAX, Cruise had to watch helplessly as Oppenheimer, helmed by Christopher Nolan — another staunch IMAX loyalist — swept up most of the coveted IMAX screens within just ten days of Dead Reckoning's release. Nolan's exclusive three-week deal with IMAX left Cruise's blockbuster scrambling for prime real estate, triggering reported heartburn within the Mission: Impossible camp. At the time, insiders noted Cruise's disappointment. After all, he had been championing the cause of big-screen spectacles, urging audiences back to cinemas post-pandemic, only to be edged out by another director's IMAX-first strategy. The timing couldn't have been worse for Dead Reckoning, a film tailor-made for the larger-than-life experience that IMAX offers. Fast forward to 2025, and it seems Cruise took that hard lesson to heart. Word on the street is that for Mission: Impossible – Final Reckoning, Cruise has secured an exclusive three-week IMAX window — a strategic coup that ensures the film will dominate premium screens until June 13. Only then will DreamWorks' How to Train Your Dragon reboot step in to claim its share of the IMAX pie. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Secure Your Child's Future with Strong English Fluency Planet Spark Learn More Undo It's a move that signals Cruise's astute understanding of the modern box office battleground, where premium formats can make a crucial difference in opening numbers and overall grosses. More importantly, it's a moment of poetic symmetry — what went around in 2023 has now come around in 2025. Cruise, who once ceded ground to Nolan, now finds himself in the driver's seat. One might wonder why movie stars crave for IMAX screens which have a very limited presence across the globe- at last count it has less than 2000 screens. But as per current trends, these screens provide as much as 10 % of total box office revenue, thus making it a good business decision. Final reckoning which also stars Hayley Atwell , Ving Rhames, Simon Pegg , Esai Morales and Pom Klementieff has already corssed US $ 100 million in USA.

Tom Cruise ‘had to be carried off the plane' after an exhausting ‘Mission: Impossible' stunt
Even for one of Hollywood's biggest stars, some stunts can push the limits. Tom Cruise was so physically fatigued from acting in a daring sequence for Mission: Impossible – Final Reckoning that crew members had to carry him off the plane. In the blockbuster franchise's eighth and seemingly final instalment, Tom Cruise filmed a scene walking on the wing of a small biplane mid-air. 'It beat the hell out of him. The wind hitting him, and the blast of the propeller, particles hitting him. It was the hardest workout you could ever do, it was very dangerous and very exhausting for him. Many times, we were carrying him off the wing because he was so tired. And he was flying all day,' said Wade Eastwood, the film's longtime stunt coordinator and second-unit director to The Times of London newspaper. Eastwood and Cruise have worked together since 2013, after meeting during the filming of Edge of Tomorrow. He was a stunt coordinator on the last four Mission: Impossible films and reminisced about his most-liked moment, which came in the seventh film, Dead Reckoning Part One, where Cruise rode off a cliff-edge on a motorbike. On the actor's risk tolerance and performing his own stunts, Eastwood said, "Tom doesn't show fear, Tom shows competence. He had fun during all his stunts, even when it was exhausting. He's always positive, he'll always put on a smile, and he genuinely enjoys it.' The actor spent over a year training in motocross and skydiving to prepare for the stunt, completing more than 500 skydives and 13,000 motocross jumps, he disclosed. 'No, no chance. He's a machine. He acts like a 20-year-old. And there's no magic there, it's just hard work and discipline with his food, nutrition and training," Eastwood said when he was asked whether Cruise might soon step back from such physically demanding roles. Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning, which was released on May 17, stars Hayley Atwell, Pom Klementieff, Mariela Garriga, and Esai Morales, besides Tom Cruise. Directed by Christopher McQuarrie, it shows Cruise's character Ethan Hunt and the IMF team rush to stop the Entity, a rogue AI that can annihilate mankind.
