Novocaine Now Available on Digital, No Word on Streaming Release Date

After a press tour that featured Jack Quaid looking progressively more beat up at a Clippers game, Novocaine arrived in theaters. The R-rated action comedy stars Quaid as a man who feels no pain, so it's starting to seem like 'The Boys' veteran goes out of his way to get covered in fake blood.

In her review for IGN, critic Lena Wilson states that “Novocaine offers more depth than its gimmicky 'man who feels no pain' premise may lead you to believe," with "clever storytelling and character writing that reminds us of a time when seeing movies in theaters was just plain fun.”

Whether you're still planning to catch Novocaine in theaters or would rather stream the action movie at home, check out the details below.

Where to Stream Novocaine Online

Less than one month after arriving in theaters, Novocaine is available to rent or buy from digital marketplaces like Prime Video.

Novocaine will eventually stream on Paramount+ instead of Netflix or Hulu. Recent Paramount movies, like Sonic the Hedgehog 3 and Gladiator 2, arrived on the streaming service about three months after releasing in theaters. Assuming the new action comedy follows a similar release schedule, Novocaine will likely be streaming on Paramount+ by late June.

Physical Release Details

The details surrounding the physical release for Novocaine were announced at the same time the movie arrived on digital platforms. DVD, Blu-ray, and 4K editions of the movie are now up for preorder, though a release date has not been confirmed. At $34.99, the Amazon-exclusive steelbook is one of the more reasonably-priced Blu-ray releases.
