When and Where Will ‘The King of Kings’ Movie Be Streaming?

Angel Studios is quickly becoming a force in entertainment. The Christian-focused entertainment company produced the popular live-action film “Sound of Freedom” in 2023. But this year’s blockbuster looks to be the animated movie “The King of Kings.”

The film debuted in theaters on April 11, 2025. It has an all-star cast of voice actors with Kenneth Branagh as Charles Dickens, Uma Thurman as Catherine Dickens, Pierce Brosnan as Pontius Pilate, Mark Hamill as King Herod, Forest Whitaker as Peter, Ben Kingsley as High Priest Caiaphas, and Oscar Isaac as Jesus Christ. Kristin Chenoweth sings the film’s closing song.

The film follows a father and son as they embark on an imaginative journey through the life of Jesus.

It’s already on track to be a big hit with $14.6 million in pre-sales. It could top “The Prince of Egypt” ($14.5M) as the best opening ever for an animated Biblical movie.

If you want to watch this movie at home, how long will it take? And where will it end up?

The most likely scenario is that “King of Kings” follows the path of “Sound of Freedom.” That movie went 175 days from theatrical release to the eventual streaming premiere on Prime Video. Since Angel Studios has no direct-to-streaming agreement, there may be a bidding war for “King of Kings.”

If I had to guess, I’d assume Prime Video will win the rights to “King of Kings,” and you can expect to see it streaming around October 3, 2025. If the film shows strength over time in theaters, it could be a longer wait, with a Christmas streaming release making a lot of sense.

$8.99/mo.
