As a gamer with a soft spot for heist films and a knack for binge-watching on streaming platforms, I must say that the recent reunion of Brad Pitt and George Clooney in Wolfs has been quite the thrill! The movie, despite mixed reviews, has managed to break records on Apple TV+, becoming the most viewed film in its history.
As we all wait to find out if Ocean’s 14 will become a reality, two stars from the initial heist trilogy have teamed up for a different type of crime thriller. Brad Pitt and George Clooney are currently starring in The Bank Job (Wolfs), a film available on Apple TV+. The story follows two skilled fixers who find themselves compelled to collaborate on the same task. Critics’ reviews have been divided, with TopMob giving it 3.5 out of 5 stars, but The Bank Job has already achieved a significant milestone on Apple TV+. In fact, a sequel, The Bank Job 2, has already been given the go-ahead.
By the deadline, “Wolfs” has broken Apple TV+ records as the most-watched movie to date, achieving this feat only a few days after its release on their 2024 schedule. Although Apple TV+ hasn’t disclosed exact figures, it’s been reported that the film featuring Brad Pitt and George Clooney saw a nearly 30% increase in viewership each week on the platform. Released in over 100 countries on September 27, “Wolfs” has experienced significant spikes in viewership across the United States, UK, Canada, Australia, Italy, Mexico, Brazil, and Germany.
Initially, the strategy for the movie “Wolfs” was to launch it as a broad theatrical release, followed by its streaming debut on Apple TV+. However, in August, they opted for a limited theatrical release on September 20, before premiering on the streaming platform on September 27. Whether “Wolfs” would have been a hit at the box office remains uncertain, but it’s clear that this decision has benefited Apple TV+ significantly. Matt Dentler, head of features for Apple Original Films, commented on Deadline: “[The release strategy] undeniably worked out well for Apple TV+.
When George, Brad, and Jon proposed the concept of Wolfs to us, it was a no-brainer — an entertaining, sparkling film featuring two Academy Award winners who are universally recognized as legendary when paired. Now, viewers across the globe have flocked to make Wolfs a part of their weekend routine, turning the movie into a global box office sensation. We’ve always viewed Apple TV+ as the ideal platform for gifted artists to showcase and share their exceptional creations, and it’s thrilling to witness such a strong audience response.
It’s great news that Apple TV+ has given the go-ahead for a sequel to “Wolfs”, considering its impressive performance. Without revealing any spoilers, the ending of “Wolfs” certainly hints at a possible reunion for Brad Pitt and George Clooney’s characters. Besides these two returning to their unnamed roles (they were credited in the original film as Pam’s Man and Margaret’s Man), the only confirmed details about “Wolfs 2” are that Jon Watts will continue his role as writer, director, and executive producer.
