Although the streaming date of the film remains a mystery, its likely destination will be Max, the offspring of the merger between Warner Bros. and HBO earlier this year. 

However, the date of its release on small screens is a more challenging question to answer. Most Warner Bros. films have had to wait a minimum number of days before dropping on Max, and the number varies.

For instance, The Batman had to wait 45 days before being released on small screens, while Barbie had to wait a whopping five months!

When the time comes, you can watch The Color Purple on Max for a meager $9.99 a month or a one-time fee of $99 to access their library.
