On Wednesday (today), Jan. 22, Midas Man, launches in North America via video on demand. The film will be available direct-to-consumer over a theatrical release. The release follows its preview at the 2025 New York Jewish Film Festival and its UK release last year.
The film’s launch will coincide with a screening event in West Hollywood. The film previously reached No. 1 on Amazon Prime UK and maintains an 86 percent score on Rotten Tomatoes.
From publicity:
Widely hailed as the mastermind behind The Beatles’ meteoric rise — the film follows Epstein, a gay man in the UK at a time when it was illegal, and a Jewish man in the aftermath of the Holocaust, as he navigates a whirlwind of unprecedented fame, cultural revolution, and personal demons. This isn’t just a story about music — it’s about the universal human experience: the search for love, identity, and the strength to dream in the face of adversity.
The film stars Jacob Fortune-Lloyd (The Queen’s Gambit), Oscar nominee Emily Watson (DUNE: Prophecy, Gosford Park), Eddie Suzy Izzard (Ocean’s Thirteen) Eddie Marsan (Happy-Go-Lucky), Ed Speleers (Star Trek: Picard), Adam Lawrence (Peaky Blinders). Midas Man is written by Brigit Grant and directed by Joe Stephenson (Doctor Jekyll).
The film is available for pre-sale purchase here.
