 When Will the Movie Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves Available for Streaming Online?

How long after premiering in theaters will the 2023 movie Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves release for streaming on Paramount Plus?

Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves is set to be a hit in theaters, so when will it release on streaming? Despite the continued popularity of the role-playing game after the 1980s and renewed interest in its lore after Netflix’s Stranger Things, Paramount’s 2023 film Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves is the first live-action adaptation of the game released in theaters in 23 years. Directed by Jonathan Goldstein and John Francis Daley, Honor Among Thieves stars Chris Pine, Michelle Rodriguez, Regé-Jean Page, Justice Smith, and Sophia Lillis as a group of thieves and adventurers uniting to find a long-lost relic, with Hugh Grant also starring as a powerful conman.

Paramount’s Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves is already a hit with critics, as it holds a positive Rotten Tomatoes score of 89% at the time of writing. For those who are well-versed in D&D lore or know little about the role-playing game, Honor Among Thieves' cast and crew provide an enjoyable adventure with a well-crafted blend of comedy and heart. The movie is also expected to perform well at the box office following its March 31 premiere, which means a longer exclusive theatrical window could be in play before Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves releases on streaming.

Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves Will Likely Release On Paramount Plus In May 2023

As a Paramount movie, Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves will stream on Paramount Plus once its exclusive theatrical window expires. While Paramount has yet to set an official release date, Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves is expected to hit Paramount Plus at least 46 days after its March 31 theatrical premiere. If so, Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves could start streaming on Paramount Plus as early as May 16.

While many Paramount movies began streaming after 46 days in 2022, more recent films like Babylon didn’t drop on Paramount Plus until 60 days after being in theaters. Paramount’s February 2023 movie 80 for Brady is also expected to begin streaming in April, suggesting a 60-day exclusive theatrical window may become the norm for the studio’s streaming formula. If Honor Among Thieves follows this strategy, the new Dungeons & Dragons movie could start streaming on May 30. Still, the studio’s biggest 2022 box office hit Top Gun: Maverick took seven months to finally begin streaming, so Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves’ box office performance may be what decides its Paramount Plus release date.

Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves’ Streaming Release Will Be Huge For Its Success

The 2023 movie Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves is filled with Easter eggs, references, jokes, and details that will likely be missed on the first watch in theaters. With the ability to pause and rewind on Paramount Plus, Honor Among Thieves will be even more enjoyable for viewers at home who can continue to catch the small details they didn’t find the first time around. Considering the movie is premiering between the hit films John Wick: Chapter 4 and The Super Mario Bros. Movie, Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves will also have a healthy resurgence in popularity through streaming with audiences who may have initially been preoccupied with competing theatrical releases.

Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves’ streaming release will also be more helpful for viewers with very little background knowledge of Dungeons & Dragons game lore. While watching at home on Paramount Plus, viewers can look up certain Dungeons & Dragons species, terms, legendary characters, and curious objects that aren’t fully explained within Honor Among Thieves. Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves’ Paramount Plus streaming premiere will also be a great way for viewers to assess how the movie sets up the characters’ potential franchise future.
