Other Mommy isn't streaming yet. Jessica Chastain's horror film opened in theaters on October 9, 2026, and Universal hasn't announced a digital or streaming date. When it does arrive, it will follow the studio's usual path: digital rental first, then Peacock, then Netflix.

Estimates for the Peacock debut range from late November 2026 to February 2027.

When will Other Mommy be on Peacock?

No date has been set. As a Universal release, Other Mommy will stream on Peacock first. Predictions differ:

  • EntertainmentNow suggests around November 23, 2026, based on a roughly 45-day window from theaters.
  • Epicstream predicts February 2027.

The difference comes down to whether Universal uses a fast or standard window. Its weak legs could argue for a quicker move to home viewing.

When can I rent Other Mommy?

No date has been announced, but it will be the first way to watch at home. Epicstream expects rental and purchase on Prime Video, Apple TV and Fandango at Home between November and December. Universal has a history of moving films to premium digital rental within a few weeks of opening.

Will Other Mommy be on Netflix?

Likely in 2027. Universal titles generally move to Netflix for a stretch after their first Peacock run. EntertainmentNow expects Other Mommy on Netflix around March 2027.

How has Other Mommy done at the box office?

Thursday previews About $3.6 million
Opening weekend $27.8 million
CinemaScore D+
Second weekend $8.35 million, down about 70%
Total after 10 days $44.8 million

A strong opening, then a steep fall. For the latest weekend, see our box office report.

What is Other Mommy about?

Based on Josh Malerman's novel Incidents Around the House, the film follows Ursula (Chastain) and her eight-year-old daughter Bela (Arabella Olivia Clark), who are menaced by an entity known as "Other Mommy." Chastain plays both Ursula and the entity, and Jay Duplass co-stars. Rob Savage (The Boogeyman) directs.
