'Marry Me' to Have Dual Release in Theaters & on Peacock

The Jennifer Lopez, Owen Wilson, and Maluma rom-com is set for Valentine’s Day weekend 2022, and was originally supposed to only debut in theaters.
Now, there’s been a change.

THR reports the decision to move the film to streaming and theaters is because “Hollywood studios face an uncertain marketplace for theatrical films, and particularly adult-skewing titles.” West Side Story had a very soft opening this past weekend, earning just over $10 million for the entire weekend.
