‘Other Mommy’ Comes to Digital, But When Will ‘Other Mommy’ Be Streaming Free on Peacock?
Halloween may be over, but it’s never the wrong time to watch a scary movie at home—and lucky for you, Other Mommy, Jessica Chastain’s new Blumhouse horror movie, is coming to digital platforms to buy and rent starting tomorrow.
Directed by Rob Savage, with a screenplay written by Nathan Elston, Other Mommy is based on the 2024 novel Incidents Around the House by Josh Malerman. Chastain stars in two roles in the film: Ursula, the loving mother of a young girl named Bela (played by Arabella Olivia Clark), and the evil, supernatural entity that takes Ursula’s form, which Bela has dubbed “Other Mommy.” Ursual wants to protect her daughter from this evil, but how can she do that when Bela never knows who to trust?
Other members of the Other Mommy cast include Jay Duplass, Dichen Lachman, Arian Moayed, and Karen Allen. The film was produced by James Wan (the guy who brought you Saw, Insidious, and The Conjuring), via the Atomic Monster branch of Blumhouse Productions. Even thought critics didn’t like the film, it still made a decent showing at the box office, earning over $115.2 million worldwide, off an estimated $19 million production budget. Does that mean Other Mommy 2 is in Jessica Chastain’s future? We’ll have to wait and see. In the meantime, here’s how to watch Other Mommy at home and when and where we expect to be able to watch Other Mommy streaming for free.
Where to watch the Other Mommy movie on streaming:
Beginning on Tuesday, November 10 at 12 a.m. Eastern Time (which is also November 9 at 9 p.m. Pacific Time) Other Mommy will be available to buy and rent digitally on Amazon Prime, Apple TV, Fandango At Home, and more. The price may vary depending on which platform you use to purchase the film, but on Amazon Prime the film costs $24.99 to buy a digital copy, and $19.99 to rent. If you rent the movie, you’ll have 48 hours to watch the movie after hitting “play.”
Can I buy the Other Mommy movie on DVD?
Other Mommy will be released on DVD, 4K UHD, and Blu-ray on December 29, 2026. You can pre-order your DVD starting at $17.95 on Amazon Prime.
The digital and the physical release will come with bonus content (which may vary, depending on which platform you use to buy the film), including four deleted/alternate scenes, a behind the scenes look at the film’s special effects, and other making-of featurettes.
Where will Other Mommy be streaming for free?
Other Mommy is not yet streaming on any subscription streaming services, but we do expect to see Other Mommy streaming on Peacock soon, because it is a Universal movie and Peacock is the streaming service owned by Universal.
Peacock currently offers two subscription types: Premium with ads and Premium Plus ad-free. Peacock Premium costs $12.99/month, while Premium Plus costs $19.99/month.
You can save a bit by subscribing to one of Peacock’s annual plans, which give you 12 months for the price of 10. These cost either $129.99 with ads or $199.99 without ads.
Peacock Premium Plus is also available to subscribe to via Prime Video with a seven-day free trial that you can’t get by subscribing directly on Peacock.
When will the Other Mommy movie be streaming on Peacock?
You might see Other Mommy streaming on Peacock around February 2027.
The Other Mommy streaming release date on Peacock has not yet been announced, but you will likely see the Other Mommy movie streaming on Peacock early next year. Another Universal release, You Me And Tuscany, began streaming on Peacock about four months after the movie opened in theaters.
If Other Mommy follows a similar release pattern, you might see the movie streaming on Peacock around early-to-mid February 2027. That said, other Universal movies have taken just three, or even two months to come to Peacock, so you may see Other Mommy on digital and Peacock even earlier, around January 2027, or even December 2026.
When will Other Mommy be streaming on Prime Video for free?
You will eventually be able to stream Other Mommy on Prime Video, free with a Prime subscription, four months after the movie streams on Peacock.
This is thanks to the deal between Universal and Amazon that sends Universal movies to Peacock for the first four months of the “Pay 1 window,” then to Amazon Prime Video for the next four months of the window, followed by four more months on Peacock. If our prediction for when Other Mommy will be on Peacock is correct, then you should see Other Mommy streaming on Prime around June 2027.
This is all speculation. Universal has not had a consistent digital release strategy. It varies by title. If you want to watch the Other Mommy movie right away, you can buy or rent the film online starting tomorrow.
