Where can you stream West Side Story online?

The movie is actually still playing in select theaters. So if you want that big-screen experience, you can still get it. Unfortunately, the movie is still not available on any streaming platform. And now that it’s an Oscar-nominated movie, I doubt the studio is in any rush to stream the movie to take advantage of box office sales.

We did round up a list of where to watch all Oscar nominated movies HERE, there are plenty of movies that are streaming online. Sadly, West Side Story is not one of these.

The 94th annual Academy Awards will take place on March 27 at the Hollywood Dolby Theatre and be televised on ABC.
