There are only a few actors across the world who enjoy widespread love and adulation from a diverse audience. Every artist aspires to have a following like that, but only a handful succeed. One of the actors who has managed to achieve this global acclaim is the widely loved John Wick star, Keanu Reeves. Everyone wants him on board with their projects. Massive franchises are built on his capable shoulders. He is the most sought-after actor in the West; Marvel boss Kevin Feige has confessed that he takes every single script to Reeves to check whether he plans to make his Marvel debut. Lionsgate Play is no different. The streaming platform could have a separate library dedicated to the Matrix star and is now set to welcome him again with Replicas. Yes, you heard that right.
In case you were away from the internet, Lionsgate Play is all set to release another Keanu Reeves film on their streaming platform, and this time it is one from the archives. Recently, the streamer casually listed Replicas, starring Keanu Reeves, under their ‘Coming Soon’ section on the app. However, there was no release date attached to the film at that time. It turns out we might now have figured out when the film will hit the streaming platform. Below is everything you should know about the massive update of the day.
Replicas, for the uninitiated, stars Keanu Reeves alongside Alice Eve and was released theatrically back in 2019, generating considerable buzz during its run on the big screen. However, the film is now finding a second life on streaming, with Lionsgate Play re-releasing it. The streamer has been releasing many older films on their platform for a while, and fans have been having a great time. However, the wait for Replicas is going to be longer than we thought.
While the streamer listed the movie in the Coming Soon section quite early, the movie is not going to be released on the streamer until the end of June. Yes, you read that right. Replicas will release on Lionsgate Play on June 28, 2024. There is a long list of movies already slated to re-release on the app before that, including Zac Efron’s The Iron Claw, Adrift, and Mona Lisa and the Blood Moon.

He violates the law of bioethics and brings back his family through cloning, ending up creating replicas, which makes him a threat to the government, and the chase begins.
Replicas will stream on Lionsgate Play in India from June 28, 2024, and you can watch the film with your OTTplay Premium subscription. Stay tuned to OTTplay for more information on this and everything else in the world of streaming and films.
