We’re very close to touching evil once again and we confirm where to watch Evil Dead Rise on release day, reveal if it will be streaming on HBO Max, and introduce you to the cast involved.
After the first, intense trailer for the latest Evil Dead feature was released, we took a deep dive into the Necronomicon to discuss if the book is real.
Directed by Lee Cronin and produced by original Evil Dead director, Sam Raimi, Evil Dead Rise serves as the fifth overall installment in the horror franchise, following sisters who discover a mysterious, ancient book hidden in an apartment building that soon unleashes terror.

Where to watch Evil Dead Rise
Evil Dead Rise is scheduled to be released on Friday, April 21, 2023, in cinemas worldwide.

Evil Dead Rise also shares a debut day with A24’s Beau is Afraid, therefore, it will be a Friday to remember for horror fans.
The latest horror received its premiere at the South by Southwest festival back in March of this year.
Will Evil Dead Rise be streaming?
No, Evil Dead Rise will not be streaming anywhere on release day because the project is debuting as a cinema exclusive first.
Since the movie is being distributed by Warner Bros. Pictures, Evil Dead Rise will eventually arrive on the streaming service, HBO Max.
Most movies honor a 45 to 90-day window as a cinema exclusive before arriving on a streaming platform, therefore, horror fans can expect Evil Dead Rise to appear on HBO Max during the summer.
