Multiple outlets report that the horror film “Obsession” is scheduled to move to streaming on Peacock on July 17. Variety and Deadline describe it as a breakthrough debut from director Curry Barker, with Deadline noting its global box office performance and that Focus Features acquired North American and certain foreign rights out of TIFF Midnight. The movie’s story centers on Bear, portrayed by Michael Johnston, and his co-worker Nikki, played by Inde Navarrette. After Bear makes a wish for Nikki to love him above all else, Nikki becomes dangerously obsessed, leading to escalating horror elements.
Reporting also indicates that the film remains available through premium video-on-demand options during its extended theatrical window. Some outlets in the provided set cite different timing for streaming (including a November 2026 date on Netflix), but the Peacock July 17 date is consistently reported across Variety, Deadline, and CNET. Other coverage referenced by Google News and additional brief notes focus on online viewing details and the film’s high-grossing performance relative to its budget.
