Fantastic Beasts 3 is roaring into cinemas around the world – the new Harry Potter prequel has now touched down in the UK and is coming to US theaters on April 15. However, considering last year's Warner Bros. movies were all in cinemas and on HBO Max simultaneously, you may be wondering when The Secrets of Dumbledore will be available on streaming.
It appears that Warner Bros. will be using a similar release schedule to The Batman, though there's no precise streaming release date for the new movie. However, we do have an ETA on Fantastic Beasts 3 on HBO Max, thanks to the studio's ongoing streaming strategy.
WarnerMedia CEO Jason Kilar has previously spoken about Warner Bros. movies reaching HBO Max around 46 days after being released in cinemas. That proved true with The Batman, which touched down in theaters on March 4 and was given an April 19 release date on HBO Max.
With The Secrets of Dumbledore being out April 15 in the US, that puts Fantastic Beasts 3's HBO Max release date around May 30, which happens to be a Monday.
Of course, this is only applicable to those who have access to HBO Max in their region. Those in the UK, for example, will likely have to wait a little bit longer to buy or rent it digitally or on Blu-Ray – potentially into July or August if something like Spider-Man: No Way Home is any indication. But new HBO Max regions, such as the Netherlands, should have Fantastic Beasts waiting for them soon.
Watching Fantastic Beasts 3 on a streaming service away from HBO Max might take even longer than that, sadly. We’ll update this page as soon as we know more. For more, check out our guide to the Fantastic Beasts 3 ending.
