Set Your Reminders – Rupert Grint’s “Moonwalkers” to Hit Netflix!

by · Published · Updated

Last month, you may remember we brought you some updates regarding Rupert Grint’s new film Moonwalkers – this included a short clip and stills, not to mention a red band trailer. Now we bring you yet another new update!

The film premiered back in March at the SXSW festival in Austin, Texas, and is due to publicly hit US theaters on January 15, 2016. We can now inform you that it will also be rolling onto Netflix that very same day! Awesome or what?

Moonwalkers – which also stars Ron Perlman and Robert Sheehan – sees Grint play a rock band manager who teams up with a CIA agent in order to create a film of a fake moon landing. You may recall that Sheehan has worked with Grint previously, in the 2009 film Cherrybomb. Perlman also has his own Potter connection after recently being cast in Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them.

Other films to keep an eye on that are hitting Netflix on January 1 are as follows:

However, just as the above films are arriving, the following are due to leave Netflix:

  • Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (starring Helena Bonham Carter)
  • Corpse Bride (with the voice of Helena Bonham Carter)
