Where will Blink Twice be streaming in Australia?
Warner Bros. Pictures is distributing the movie in Australia, which means the film is likely to stream on BINGE, Foxtel, and Foxtel Now after its theatrical run. Netflix’s deal with Warner Bros. makes it also possible for Blink Twice to be streaming on Netflix as well.
It is, however, worth noting that most new films are released digitally via pay per view (e.g., Apple TV, Google Play, Fetch, Prime Video Store, and Microsoft) before arriving on subscription streaming.
What is the Blink Twice plot?
Frida, a cocktail waitress, meets tech billionaire Slater King at his fundraiser gala. Drawn to each other, he invites her for a lavish vacation on his private island, which she says yes to with her friend Jess (Alia Shawkat) accompanying her.
There, she meets other attendees, including Vic (Christian Slater), Cody (Simon Rex ), Sarah (Adria Arjona), and Tom (Haley Joel Osment). Dreamy sun-soaked days and wild nights soon follow, only for the fun times to end when Jess goes missing and things just get weirder.
With people around her also starting to behave erratically, Frida realises she must uncover the truth about her friend’s disappearance, and fast, to get out of there before it becomes terribly too late.
Blink Twice is directed by Zoë Kravitz from a screenplay she co-wrote with E.T. Feigenbaum, which she also produced alongside Bruce Cohen, Tiffany Persons, Garret Levitz, and Channing Tatum.
