Jenna Ortega’s new A24 film Death of a Unicorn has officially set its streaming debut on Max. It arrives on digital shortly after an underwhelming theatrical run this March.
Death of a Unicorn was written and directed by Alex Scharfman in his directorial debut. In a recent interview with CBR, Poulter talked about working on the film with Scharfman, saying, “He wrote such an amazing script. The characters were already such gifts in terms of how they arrived on the page, and then we were also afforded the opportunity to play off each other so much.”
The underrated A24 film premiered at South by Southwest on March 8 and shortly after was released in theaters on March 28. Unfortunately, it received mixed reviews from critics and audiences, with review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes putting its Tomatometer at 54%. While critics praised Rudd and Ortega’s performances, detractors claimed its “broad satire is a bit too on the horn but makes for an entertainingly splattery creature feature.”
Death of a Unicorn‘s box office returns were largely underwhelming for A24. Originally projected to gross $7-8 million in its opening weekend, the film debuted under the mark at $5.8 million. It ended its box office run just north of $16 million against its $15 million budget.
Jenna Ortega’s Latest Thriller Also Bombed in Theaters






Death of a Unicorn isn’t the only recent Jenna Ortega project that failed to hit the mark at the box office. Her psychological thriller which saw her star alongside The Weeknd, Hurry Up Tomorrow, had a disastrous box office run that saw it also arriving on digital platforms very quickly. It’s not all bad news for Ortega, though, with the second season of her highly successful Netflix series Wednesday set to drop its first batch of episodes on Aug. 6.
Death of a Unicorn will arrive on Max on July 26.
