Trap is being distributed by Warner Bros. Pictures, which means it will eventually join Max . Since the company no longer drops its movies on the streaming platform the same day that they’re released in theaters, we have to wait at least 45 days after the release before we can watch the film from the comfort of our living rooms.

While there is not an official streaming release date yet, The Color Purple , another Warner Bros. movie, was released in theaters on December 25 and didn’t make its way to Max until February 16, which is eight weeks after it debuted. If Trap follows the same trajectory, it’s possible we may not be able to stream it until early October of 2024.

Warner Bros. Discovery films typically usually head to Max after their release. However, it is absolutely possible that Trap will join Netflix at some point in the future. That possibility is because of a deal penned between the two streaming giants that gave Netflix the streaming rights to eight DCEU movies , along with other Warner Bros. Discovery projects like the original Dune film and Meg 2: The Trench .
