Nicolas Winding Refn's HER PRIVATE HELL On Digital TODAY

Award-winning film studio NEON announced today that Her Private Hell, the first film in ten years from visionary director Nicolas Winding Refn (Drive, The Neon Demon, Only God Forgives), will arrive on digital platforms to rent or own beginning August 25, 2026, followed by a 4K Ultra HD/Blu-ray Combo on November 24, 2026.

Following its 2026 Cannes Film Festival premiere and release in theaters, Her Private Hell established itself as one of the summer’s most talked-about genre offerings, earning praise for its hypnotic visuals and operatic score by Pino Donaggio (Don’t Look Now, Carrie). A harrowing odyssey, the film stars Sophie Thatcher (Heretic, Yellowjackets) as a troubled young woman who searches for her father as a mysterious mist engulfs a futuristic metropolis. Rounding out the cast are Charles Melton (May December, Riverdale), Havana Rose Liu (Tuner, Bottoms), and Kristine Froseth (Oh, Canada, How to Blow Up a Pipeline). Her Private Hell marks another singular, provocative entry in Refn’s unmistakable body of work.
