Zodiac to stream on Paramount+ soon

David Fincher’s Zodiac is arriving on Paramount+ next month.

According to a report by Comicbook.com, the Robert Downey Jr.-led movie will land on the streaming platform on January 1, 2026.

While Zodiac was a big critical success, it failed to perform satisfactorily at the box office. Released in 2007, it is inspired by true events and took inspiration from the books written by Robert Graysmith.

As per Box Office Mojo, the movie was made on a reported budget of $65 million. It made an opening collection of over $13.3 million in the US theaters. At the domestic box office, Zodiac managed to earn over $33 million, and grossed $51.7 million in the international market. This took the movie’s total worldwide collection to $84.7 million.

Despite the disappointing box office performance, Zodiac received immense praise from the critics. On Rotten Tomatoes, it has a score of 90 percent on the Tomatometer based on 264 critic reviews. On the other hand, it received a score of 77 percent on the Popcornmeter based on the audience’s verdict.

In December 2023, Robert Downey Jr. reunited with Mark Ruffalo on Variety’s Actors on Actors and recalled working with David Fincher on Zodiac. He said, “I called Fincher recently because in retrospect, everything changes.”

The Avengers: Endgame star further added how working with Christopher Nolan on Oppenheimer made him develop “a new respect for Fincher.” He added how it was the first time he and Ruffalo were working under an “exacting director. A real director, who does things a certain way.”
