Janet Planet Max Release Date Set for A24 Movie Starring Julianne Nicholson

Warner Bros. has announced the Janet Planet Max release date for the upcoming streaming debut of A24‘s latest coming-of-age drama. This comes after more than three months since the film’s theatrical release.

“In rural Western Massachusetts, 11-year-old Lacy spends the summer of 1991 at home, enthralled by her own imagination and the attention of her mother, Janet. As the months pass, three visitors enter their orbit, all captivated by Janet and her spellbinding nature. In her solitary moments, Lacy inhabits an inner world so extraordinarily detailed that it begins to seep into the outside world. The film captures a child’s experience of time passing, and the ineffability of a daughter falling out of love with her mother, in this singularly sublime film debut,” reads the synopsis.
