This is Sydney Sweeney’s world and we’re all just living in it. In 2024, she hosted SNL, channeled her Spider-Woman powers in Madame Web, ate some absurdly spicy wings, and starred in and produced the hit rom-com Anyone But You. Now, she’s playing a mysteriously pregnant nun in the religious horror movie Immaculate (which she also produced). If you missed it in theaters, you can now join the viewing party from home since Immaculate is officially streaming.
Here’s everything you need to know about how to watch Immaculate at home, including the best streaming deals to potentially save a few bucks.
What is Immaculate about?
Immaculate follows Sister Cecelia (Sweeney), a young novitiate who discovers she is pregnant after arriving at a convent in Italy. Since she is a virgin, the religious order — Father Sal Tedeschi (Álvaro Morte), Mother Superior (Dora Romano), and Cardinal (Giorgio Colangeli) — declares it an immaculate conception. As her belly grows, she begins to doubt whether the pregnancy is what she wants and worries that a dark force is at play.
“The heart of the horror here is about Cecilia’s faith being used against her,” Mashable Film Editor Kristy Puchko writes in her review.
Immaculate also stars Sweeney’s fellow The White Lotus alum (from Season 2) Simona Tabasco as Sister Mary, as well as Benedetta Porcaroli as Sister Gwen, Giampiero Judica as Doctor Gallo, and Giuseppe Lo Piccolo as Deacon Enzo.
Is Immaculate worth watching?
Immaculate earned $5.3 million domestically in its opening weekend (and has now grossed $21.7 million worldwide) according to Box Office Mojo, which is reportedly the biggest opening ever for the movie’s distributor Neon. And considering it only cost a reported $9 million to produce, its theatrical run has been relatively successful. Much of that success can be attributed to Sweeney’s star power.
“Props to Sweeney, who not only shows her merit as a leading lady, but also produced Immaculate. While the film wobbles, it shows her fearlessness not only in what she’ll take on as an actress (Nude scenes? Blood? Action? Bring it on!), but also delivers an impossible-to-miss message about the sanctity of a woman or pregnant person’s right over their own body,” Mashable’s Kristy Puchko writes in her review. She also calls it “solid B-movie entertainment, brandishing sex, violence, and gore with a heady mix of irreverence and star power.”
The critics on Rotten Tomatoes (who gave the film a 71% rating) also largely credit Sweeney’s “divine performance” for the success of Immaculate.

When is Immaculate streaming?
Immaculate is officially streaming on Hulu as of Aug. 16, 2024. It comes as no surprise that the Sweeney flick has found its way to the streamer, as the indie film distributor Neon has a deal with Hulu. Fortunately, Hulu is one of the more affordable streamers around and there are plenty of ways to sign up for a discount. Subscriptions start at $7.99 per month, but we’ve rounded up the best ways you can save on your subscription below.
Is there a Hulu free trial?
If you’re brand new to Hulu or returning after canceling a previous subscription, you can kick things off with a free 30-day trial. Just remember that if you want to avoid charges, you’ll have to cancel before the 30 days are up. If you choose to keep your subscription going, it’ll cost you $7.99 per month with ads.

The best Hulu streaming deals
Best Hulu deal for most people: Hulu annual subscription
Opens in a new window
If you don’t qualify for a free trial or you want to save some money after your trial ends, you can opt for an annual subscription to Hulu rather than paying monthly. It typically costs $7.99 per month for the ad-supported plan, but if you pay annually, that monthly fee drops down to jut $6.67 per month. Sure, you’ll have to pay $79.99 up front, but you’ll end up saving about 16% in the long run. If you plan on sticking around after watching Immaculate, this is your best bet.
Best bundle deal: Get Hulu and Disney+ for 37% off
Opens in a new window
Hulu alone will run you $7.99 monthly, but you can get more bang for your buck by bundling it with Disney+ for an extra $2 per month. That gets you access to both streaming libraries with ads for 37% cheaper than paying for each separately. Even better, you can add ESPN+ into the mix for $14.99 per month and save 44% on all three services.
Best for students: Hulu Student
Opens in a new window
Students can sign up for a student account via Hulu for just $1.99 per month. That’s 75% off the full cost of Hulu with ads. You’ll just have to verify that you’re a student using SheerID to score the deal.
Best for T-Mobile users: Hulu (with ads) included for one year for Go5G Next customers
Opens in a new window
If you’re a T-Mobile customer not already on the Go5G Next plan, this might be an incentive to switch. Customers on the Go5G Next plan get Hulu with ads included for no extra cost — and that’s on top of the already stacked lineup of Netflix and Apple TV+. Head over to the T-Mobile website and choose “redeem now” to claim your offer if you haven’t already. You’ll have to enter your T-Mobile number and account details in order to sign up for Hulu. After your initial 12-month promotional period, you’ll also have to take action in order to keep your subscription alive.
