Sydney Sweeney’s ‘Christy’ Hits Digital After Golden Globes Shutout

The boxing biopic moves to premium VOD following a weak theatrical run that undercut early festival buzz.

Overview

  • Black Bear says the film is now on premium VOD, with digital purchase at $19.99 and 48-hour rentals at $14.99 on Apple TV, Prime Video and other platforms.
  • Christy opened to about $1.3 million domestically, suffered one of the steepest second-weekend drops, and exited many theaters, finishing near $2.09 million worldwide.
  • Reviews landed in the moderate zone with a reported 67% critics’ score on Rotten Tomatoes, though Sweeney’s performance drew consistent praise after a TIFF standing ovation.
  • Sweeney produced the film, underwent a significant physical transformation for the role, continued promoting its survivor-focused message, and earned public support from Christy Salters Martin.
