In the U.S., the latest availability check found The Phoenician Scheme streaming on Amazon Prime Video and Amazon Prime Video with Ads. You can also rent or buy the film digitally through Amazon Video, the Apple TV Store, and Fandango At Home. FlixFling was also listed as a rental option in the latest check, although retailer availability can change.

The film may still have occasional theatrical screenings, but showtimes are location-specific rather than nationwide. Enter your ZIP code or city on Fandango to see whether a nearby theater is playing it.

Availability note: U.S. services and listings were checked on August 11, 2026. Streaming and retailer catalogs can change without notice.

Where to stream The Phoenician Scheme in the U.S.

The currently verified U.S. subscription option is Amazon Prime Video, including the Amazon Prime Video with Ads option listed by availability tracker JustWatch. This is the clearest choice if you already have an eligible Amazon subscription.

Subscription availability is different from a digital rental or purchase. If the film does not appear included with your particular plan, check the title page carefully before playing it: some services show a rental or purchase option alongside subscription titles, and catalog access can vary by country and account.

Rent or buy the movie digitally

If you do not want another streaming subscription, the latest U.S. listing showed The Phoenician Scheme available to rent or purchase through:

  • Amazon Video — digital rental or purchase
  • Apple TV Store — digital rental or purchase
  • Fandango At Home — digital rental or purchase
  • FlixFling — listed as a rental option in the availability check

Retailer prices, video resolution, subtitles, audio-language options, rental windows, and bonus features can differ. Confirm the final terms on the retailer’s checkout or title page before paying. Do not assume that buying the film gives you a downloadable file or a permanent copy: a digital purchase is generally a license to access the title under that retailer’s terms.

Universal Pictures Home Entertainment announced the digital release for July 8, 2025. Its announcement named Apple TV, Fandango At Home, Comcast Xfinity, Cox, Microsoft Movies & TV, and Movies Anywhere among participating platforms. Current availability tracking, however, specifically identified Amazon Video, Apple TV Store, and Fandango At Home, so the retailer’s live listing should take priority over an older release announcement.

Is The Phoenician Scheme still in theaters?

Possibly, but only in selected locations. Fandango has an active movie page with a ZIP-code or city search. To check The Phoenician Scheme showtimes near me, open the film’s Fandango listing, enter your location, and select a date. The page needs a location before it can populate theater results.

  • Compact Size: Space-saving design allows this Bluray/DVD player for tv to fit neatly in narrow spaces and on thin racks. Dimensions: Approx. 9 5/8" W x 1 1/2"H x 6 7/8"D

  • High-Resolution Audio Playback: Hear clear, superior audio from this Blu-Ray DVD player in action, adventure, dialogue, and music with Dolby Digital sound for DVDs, CDs, and compatible external files

JustWatch also points to Fandango for U.S. tickets, but theater data can be sparse or dependent on the location search loading correctly. The safest expectation is an occasional or location-specific engagement—not broad, regular nationwide showtimes. A theater listing may also represent a limited rerelease, special screening, or isolated engagement, so verify the date, theater, format, and ticket availability before traveling.

Fandango identifies the movie as a 2025 release with a U.S. release date of May 30, 2025. Listings put the runtime at roughly 1 hour 41–42 minutes, although Universal’s home-entertainment announcement gives 1 hour 56 minutes. Because those sources conflict, check the theater’s own listing for the running time of a particular screening.

Where to buy the Blu-ray or DVD

Universal announced The Phoenician Scheme for 4K UHD and Blu-ray on July 29, 2025. Current U.S. availability tracking also lists DVD and Blu-ray purchase options through Amazon and other retailers, including GRUV, Barnes & Noble, and Zavvi.

Special offer. See more information about Outbyte and uninstall instructions. Please review EULA and Privacy policy.

For viewers looking for a permanent physical edition, search for The Phoenician Scheme Blu-ray and confirm whether the listing is Blu-ray, 4K UHD, or DVD before ordering. Check region compatibility if you are outside the United States, and review the seller, shipping date, disc format, and included bonus features. Stock and edition availability can vary by retailer.

Physical media is the better choice if you want to watch without relying on a streaming catalog, internet connection, or changing digital license. It may cost more upfront and require a compatible disc player, but the title is less likely to disappear from your personal collection because a subscription service changes its lineup.

Was The Phoenician Scheme on Peacock?

Yes—Peacock was the film’s announced exclusive subscription-streaming home beginning July 25, 2025. That is the film’s earlier streaming history, not a confirmation that it is currently playable there.

The title-specific Peacock page reviewed for this availability check redirected to Peacock’s general site, and the Peacock movie catalog reviewed on August 11, 2026 did not visibly list the film among the highlighted or Universal/Focus titles. For that reason, Peacock should not be presented as the current U.S. streaming service unless a fresh title-level search confirms it at publication time.

What is The Phoenician Scheme about?

Written and directed by Wes Anderson, The Phoenician Scheme stars Benicio del Toro as Zsa-zsa Korda, Mia Threapleton as Liesl, and Michael Cera as Bjorn. Focus Features describes the story as centering on a family and its family business.

The ensemble includes Riz Ahmed, Tom Hanks, Bryan Cranston, Jeffrey Wright, Scarlett Johansson, Benedict Cumberbatch, Rupert Friend, and Hope Davis. The film is rated PG-13 for violent content, bloody images, some sexual material, nude images, and smoking throughout.

Official books and merchandise

Focus Features’ official store lists related products including The Phoenician Scheme Screenplay Book, a Chez Zsa-Zsa embroidered dad hat, an Air Korda T-shirt, and an AZK T-shirt. These are collector and fan items rather than ways to watch the film, and they should not be confused with a Blu-ray or digital purchase.

If you are collecting Wes Anderson memorabilia, verify that you are on the official Focus Features store and check the product description, shipping information, and stock status. The official merchandise listing does not by itself establish that every item is available through Amazon or another retailer.

The Bottom Line

For U.S. viewers, start with Amazon Prime Video. If it is not included with your plan, rent or buy it through Amazon Video, Apple TV Store, or Fandango At Home. For a theater screening, search Fandango by ZIP code; for a lasting collection, look for the 4K UHD, Blu-ray, or DVD release. Peacock was the announced 2025 streaming home, but its current availability was not verified in the latest check.
