- The Invite will stream exclusively on HBO Max starting October 23, with its HBO linear debut at 8:00 p.m. ET on October 24.
- Olivia Wilde directs and stars opposite Seth Rogen as a married couple on thin ice; Edward Norton and Penélope Cruz play their enigmatic upstairs neighbors who spark a chaotic dinner party.
- A24's film is an English-language remake of Cesc Gay's 2020 Spanish film 'The People Upstairs (Sentimental).'
- Wilde directed from a script by Will McCormack and Rashida Jones, with David Permut, Ben Browning, and Megan Ellison producing.
- The indie grossed over $55M worldwide over the summer after premiering to critical acclaim at Sundance.
- Wilde's next project is 'Naughty,' a Universal Pictures holiday comedy starring Jennifer Aniston and Peter Dinklage, first reported in 2023.
Why it matters: The Invite moves from a $55M theatrical window to HBO Max's subscriber base on October 23, giving streamers a second chance to catch the A24 title and extending the film's commercial life beyond its summer run.
