Ben Affleck’s Forgotten Sci-Fi Flop Officially Scores a Surprising Streaming Comeback
Ben Affleck’s 2023 science-fiction thriller *Hypnotic* has found a second life on streaming, despite its poor cinema performance. The film is available on Hulu in the US and has remained among the top 10 video-on-demand titles on services including Prime Video and Apple TV for more than 30 days.
Made for $70 million, *Hypnotic* earned just $16 million at the box office, making it one of Affleck’s biggest commercial failures. Its renewed streaming visibility comes three years after its theatrical release, while Affleck has also returned to Netflix this year with *The Rip* and *Animals*.
In short
- *Hypnotic* has reappeared on streaming charts.
- It made $16 million against a $70 million budget.
- The film has spent over 30 days in VOD top 10s.
