This is Sydney Sweeney's world and we're all just living in it. In 2024, she hosted SNL, channeled her Spider-Woman powers in Madame Web, ate some absurdly spicy wings, and starred in and produced the hit rom-com Anyone But You. Now, she's playing a mysteriously pregnant nun in the religious horror movie Immaculate(which she also produced). While the film is still in select theaters nationwide, you can join the viewing party from home now that Immaculateis available on digital.
Here's everything you need to know about how to watch Immaculateat home, including when and where the film will be streaming.
Immaculatefollows Sister Cecelia (Sweeney), a young novitiate who discovers she is pregnant after arriving at a convent in Italy. Since she is a virgin, the religious order — Father Sal Tedeschi (Álvaro Morte), Mother Superior (Dora Romano), and Cardinal (Giorgio Colangeli) — declares it an immaculate conception. As her belly grows, she begins to doubt whether the pregnancy is what she wants and worries that a dark force is at play.
"The heart of the horror here is about Cecilia's faith being used against her," Mashable Film Editor Kristy Puchko writes in her review.
Immaculatealso stars Sweeney's fellow The White Lotusalum (from Season 2) Simona Tabasco as Sister Mary, as well as Benedetta Porcaroli as Sister Gwen, Giampiero Judica as Doctor Gallo, and Giuseppe Lo Piccolo as Deacon Enzo.
Immaculateearned $5.3 million domestically in its opening weekend (and has now grossed $21.7 million worldwide) according to Box Office Mojo, which is reportedly the biggest opening ever for the movie's distributor Neon. And considering it only cost a reported $9 million to produce, its theatrical run has been relatively successful. Much of that success can be attributed to Sweeney's star power.
"Props to Sweeney, who not only shows her merit as a leading lady, but also produced Immaculate. While the film wobbles, it shows her fearlessness not only in what she'll take on as an actress (Nude scenes? Blood? Action? Bring it on!), but also delivers an impossible-to-miss message about the sanctity of a woman or pregnant person's right over their own body," Mashable's Kristy Puchko writes in her review. She also calls it "solid B-movie entertainment, brandishing sex, violence, and gore with a heady mix of irreverence and star power."
The critics on Rotten Tomatoes (who gave the film a 71% rating) also largely credit Sweeney's "divine performance" for the success of Immaculate.

It typically costs $7.99 per month for the ad-supported plan, but if you pay annually, that monthly fee drops down to jut $6.67 per month. Sure, you'll have to pay $79.99 up front, but you'll end up saving about 16% in the long run. If you plan on sticking around after watching Immaculate, this is your best bet.
