Netflix is going all out on All Quiet on the Western Front and the movie will be getting a physical release starting in March 2023 for those in the United States and April 2023 in the United Kingdom.
Nominated for 9 Oscars and recent winner of 7 BAFTAs All Quiet on the Western Front is one of Netflix’s most decorated movies to date and is hoping to win big at the upcoming Oscars on March 13th, 2023.
As a result, expect Netflix to continue campaigning for All Quiet on the Western Front in the coming days and weeks. After all, some believe the movie is Netflix’s best chance of scoring an Oscar for Best Picture since they began releasing films in 2015.
In recent weeks, we’ve seen a making-of featurette added to Netflix, and if you’ve been on a trade site or in Los Angeles, you’ve undoubtedly seen one of the many ads that Netflix is running.
As you may know, it’s rare for Netflix Originals to get physical releases. When physical editions have been released, they’ve often been movies or series ultimately owned by other distributors beyond Netflix.
We should also note that eight Netflix Originals have also been released via the coveted Criterion Collection.
