Paramount Pictures
- “Snake Eyes: G.I. Joe Origins” is now available to buy or rent through VOD services like Prime Video.
- The movie will be available to Paramount Plus members in September, and it hits Blu-ray on October 19.
- Henry Goulding stars in this reboot of Hasbro’s action franchise; more G.I. Joe movies are planned.
“Snake Eyes: G.I. Joe Origins” debuted in theaters on July 23, and it’s now available to rent ($20) or purchase ($25) on streaming services like Vudu, Amazon Prime Video, Apple TV, Microsoft, and Google Play.
“Crazy Rich Asians” star Henry Golding plays the ninja action hero known only as Snake Eyes, a character first popularized by Hasbro’s G.I. Joe franchise of toys, comics, and children’s cartoons. The film explores the history of the ninja clan that trained Snake Eyes and his archrival Storm Shadow.
“Snake Eyes” is considered a potential starting point for a new series of G.I. Joe films from Paramount Pictures. A sequel called “G.I. Joe: Ever Vigilant” has been announced but is still too early in production for casting and script details.
Where to watch ‘Snake Eyes: G.I. Joe Origins’
“Snake Eyes: G.I. Joe Origins” debuted in theaters on July 23, but you can now order it to watch at home through various streaming services. “Snake Eyes” is available to rent or buy on Vudu, Amazon Prime Video, Apple TV, Microsoft, Google Play, and more. The movie’s streaming debut comes just three weeks after its theatrical premiere.
“Snake Eyes” currently costs $20 to rent or $25 to own, so we recommend paying a little more to buy the movie so you can watch it as often as you like. With that said, if you don’t mind waiting a couple months, we expect the rental price to come down to around $6 once the movie hits home video.
Viewers willing to wait a few weeks should also keep in mind that Paramount Plus is expected to add “Snake Eyes: G.I. Joe Origins” to its streaming library in September. Paramount Plus costs $5 a month for the ad-supported version, or $10 a month for the commercial-free version.
“Snake Eyes” is available in 4K with support for HDR, Dolby Vision, and Dolby Atmos on supported devices. The 4K UHD Blu-ray will be released on October 19, and Paramount is also releasing a three-movie collection with “Snake Eyes,” “G.I. Joe: Rise of Cobra,” and “G.I. Joe: Retaliation.”
What other brand-new movies can I stream at home?
In addition to “Snake Eyes,” several other recent theatrical premieres are already available to stream at home. Recent streaming releases include blockbusters like “F9: The Fast Saga,” “A Quiet Place Part II,” “Black Widow,” “Cruella,” and “Jungle Cruise.”
