Christy is a biographical sports drama about boxing legend Christy Martin, brought to life by Sydney Sweeney. Directed by David Michôd (and co-written with Mirrah Foulkes), the film doesn’t sugarcoat the tough parts. We see Martin’s rise from small-town West Virginia to international boxing fame in the 1990s — and also the darker, very personal fight she wages outside the ring, including a deeply complicated marriage-turned-dangerous.
The movie made its world debut at TIFF on September 5, 2025, and officially hit U.S. theaters on November 7, 2025.
When and Where to Watch Christy: Digital / Streaming

If you didn’t catch Christy in cinemas, don’t worry — your couch is calling. According to multiple reports, including Forbes, Christy is set to arrive on premium video-on-demand (PVOD) platforms on December 9, 2025.
On that day, you should be able to buy or rent it through popular stores like Apple TV (or iTunes), YouTube, Prime Video, and Fandango at Home.
There’s no confirmed news yet that it’ll jump to a subscription streaming service (like Netflix or Hulu) right away — especially since Black Bear Pictures, the studio behind Christy, tends to follow a flexible distribution pattern
Christy Physical Release (DVD / Blu-ray) — Is It Coming?

For collectors or anyone who loves having a physical copy, here’s the situation. As of now, DVD and Blu-ray release dates for Christy are not been announced. Even Blu-ray.com lists a page for the film, but there’s no concrete street date yet.
That’s pretty common for smaller, indie-style films: the theatrical run and digital rollout usually get priority, and physical discs come later — often once demand stabilizes or they decide there’s enough audience to justify the cost.
Why These Release Dates Matter

First, the digital release is a big deal for fans who didn’t see it in theaters. It’s coming soon after the theatrical window, which means you won’t have to wait months. Plus, Digital-on-Demand gives you flexibility: rent it for a couple of nights, or buy and own it forever.
Second, the delay in a physical release (DVD/Blu-ray) doesn’t mean it’s never happening — it just means it’s not a top priority yet. If you’re someone who cares about bonus features, collectible packaging, or just having a shelf-worthy copy, there’s still hope.
Conclusion: The Wait Isn’t Too Long
It’s not uncommon for smaller indie-style films (like this one from Black Bear Pictures) to take a few extra months before hitting DVD or Blu-ray. And, the pattern is likely to be the same with Christy. The theater run and early digital demand take first priority for the movie. Only later will the physical release get locked in.
So, mark your calendar for early December if you want to stream it — and keep your eyes peeled for a possible Blu-ray drop down the line. And, also, maybe get a subscription to Netflix or Hulu (the possible candidates for streaming release).
