Paramount+ is set to remove *Virtuosity*, the 1995 sci-fi thriller starring Denzel Washington and Russell Crowe, from its US streaming library in August 2026. The film pairs the two actors years before their reunion in Ridley Scott's *American Gangster*, with Washington playing a police officer and Crowe playing a composite virtual-reality serial killer brought to life. Its departure marks a notable loss for fans of the cult title, which sits within a wider run of Washington films echoing David Fincher's *Se7en*.

Released the same year as *Se7en*, *Virtuosity* is often grouped with later Washington thrillers such as *Fallen* (1998) and *The Bone Collector* (1999), in which he again played a lawman pursuing a killer, though it stands apart for its distinctive digital-villain premise. Washington famously turned down the lead role in *Se7en* itself, a decision he reportedly came to regret. With no confirmed replacement platform announced, viewers in the US wishing to watch *Virtuosity* have only a limited window before it disappears from Paramount+.
