Where to watch I Can Only Imagine 2

It has just been three days since the release of I Can Only Imagine 2, and with all the love it's been receiving, it is quite sure that it will continue its theatrical run for some time now. However, once it is out of the theaters, it will definitely arrive on Prime Video. This will be so, as the movie is a Lionsgate release and all Lionsgate releases go only to Amazon Prime, per their output deal. Per JustWatch, the movie can also be streamed on Fandango at Home.

There is also a slight chance one can stream this movie on Starz, even though the studios split in 2025. It is still difficult to say for sure, and with Lionsgate's arrangement with Amazon starting to take effect, it is unclear if its previous deal with Starz will last until 2026.
