Jonno Davies as Robbie Williams in “Better Man.”
PARAMOUNT PICTURES
Better Man—a fantasy docudrama biopic about British pop star Robbie Williams—is new in theaters. When will it be available to watch on streaming at home?
Williams appears as himself in Better Man, but is also featured in the film with a twist. Via performance capture acting as seen in films like Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes, Jonno Davies plays Williams in the film in the guise of a chimpanzee.
The official summary for the film reads, “Better Man is based on the true story of the meteoric rise, dramatic fall and remarkable resurgence of British pop superstar Robbie Williams, one of the greatest entertainers of all time.

“Under the visionary direction of Michael Gracey (The Greatest Showman), the film is uniquely told from Robbie’s perspective, capturing his signature wit and indomitable spirit. It follows Robbie’s journey from childhood, to being the youngest member of chart-topping boyband Take That, through to his unparalleled achievements as a record-breaking solo artist – all the while confronting the challenges that stratospheric fame and success can bring.”
Rated R, Better Man opens in theaters nationwide on Friday. Currently, the only way you can see Better Man is on the big screen, so check your local listings for showtimes.

Paramount Pictures
When Better Man comes to the home entertainment marketplace, it will first be available on digital streaming via premium video on demand.
Better Man is being released by Paramount Pictures. Typically, Paramount Pictures releases have a one-month theatrical window before they are released on PVOD. Here are three examples of that release pattern from 2024.
Paramount Pictures’ animated adventure Transformers One opened in theaters on Friday, Sept. 20, and arrived on PVOD on Oct. 22, while the horror thriller Smile 2 opened in theaters on Friday, Oct. 18, and pivoted to PVOD on Tuesday, Nov. 19.

More recently, the studio’s historical epic Gladiator II opened in theaters on Friday, Nov. 22, and made its digital streaming debut on Tuesday, Dec. 24.
If Better Man follows the same release pattern as Smile 2 and Gladiator II, then viewers can expect to purchase or rent the film on PVOD on or about Tuesday, Feb. 11.
Which Streaming Service Will Get Robbie Williams’ ‘Better Man’ First?
Since Better Man is a Paramount Pictures film it will stream on the studio’s streaming platform Paramount+.
Typically, the window between a Paramount Pictures theatrical opening and its debut on Paramount+ is about two months, but sometimes less. For example, Transformers One debuted on Paramount+ on Friday, Nov. 15, 2024, nearly two months after opening on Friday, Dec. 20.

However, Smile 2 debuted on Paramount+ a bit quicker than Transformers One. It debuted on the streaming video on demand service on Tuesday, Dec. 3, 2024, about six weeks after it opened in theaters on Oct. 18.
As such, viewers can expect Better Man to debut on Paramount+ anytime between Friday, Feb. 21 to Friday, March 7.
Also starring Steve Pemberton, Damon Herriman, Raechelle Banno, Alison Steadman, Kate Mulvaney, Frazer Hadfield, Tom Budge and Anthony Hayes, the Robbie Williams fantasy docudrama biopic Better Man opens in theaters nationwide on Friday.
