Conclave: Where to Watch Ralph Fiennes Starrer Film on OTT Amid Pope Francis’ Death

by

The news of Pope Francis’ passing, reportedly announced on Monday, left people around the world in a state of shock. It’s only normal for people to start contemplating the process for electing the next pope. Remarkably, this topic might stir memories in some about the movie “Conclave” (2024), which shares the same theme.

If you haven’t had a chance to see the critically-acclaimed film yet, there’s no need to fret! You can easily find it available for streaming online.

For those unfamiliar, the movie featuring Ralph Fiennes was initially accessible on Peacock. However, it was subsequently taken down from the streaming platform around early April, as reported by People magazine. It’s expected that the film will become available for streaming on Amazon Prime Video starting from April 22, at midnight Eastern Time.

Based on Deadline’s report, the exchange of streaming platforms was due to a 18-month contract that split Universal’s rights for the band’s movies. During the first four months, Peacock gained the right to stream these films, while Amazon Prime Video held those rights for the remaining eight months. The project was primarily hosted on Amazon during the intervening period.

In regards to the plot of the film, following the demise of the Pope, the College of Cardinals initiates the procedure for selecting a successor. It’s Cardinal Thomas, portrayed by Fiennes, who takes the helm in this electoral process.

According to IMDb, Cardinal Lawrence finds himself entangled in a complex network of secrets and plots that may potentially rock the core of the Catholic Church.

In addition to Fiennes, this Academy Award-winning film features a stellar cast including Stanley Tucci, Lucian Msamati, Sergio Castellitto, John Lithgow, Thomas Loibl, Jacek Koman, Isabella Rossellini, Rony Karmer, Carlos Diehz, and numerous other talented actors.
