Originally slated to be released back in October 2019, The Woman in the Window has been plagued with issues in the past couple of years, not limited to a series of rewrites, reshoots, and re-edits, poor test screenings, and Disney’s 2019 purchase of 20th Century Fox, the film’s original distributor.
Even through those issues, The Woman in the Window was given a release date of May 15, 2020, but Disney removed the film from the release calendar in March due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, before eventually selling it to Netflix in August. The streaming platform has yet to announce a release date for the psychological thriller. Hopefully it’s sooner rather than later, considering the star-studded cast that includes Gary Oldman, Julianne Moore, Jennifer Jason Leigh, Brian Tyree Henry, and Tracy Letts, who also wrote the film’s screenplay.
