Daniel Kaluuya's new movie Judas and the Black Messiah is set to land on UK premium video-on-demand after skipping a cinema release.

The acclaimed new movie, which recently bagged the Black Panther star a Golden Globe, will be available to rent from March 11, according to Warner Bros.

The studio has also confirmed that the Denzel Washington-starring The Little Things and Anne Hathaway's Locked Down will be available from that date.

The price will likely stand at £15.99 for a 48-hour rental window, as we've seen with recent tentpole releases such as Wonder Woman 1984 and The Witches.

Judas and the Black Messiah follows the story of Black Panther Party head Fred Hampton (Kaluuya) and FBI infiltrator William O'Neal (Lakeith Stanfield).

The Shaka King movie has enjoyed rave reviews since its debut, with particular praise going to the movie's performances.

During his acceptance speech for Best Performance by an Actor in a Supporting Role in a Motion Picture at last weekend's Globes, Kaluuya suffered a bit of a tech fail as his audio was delayed.

However, as his audio was restored, he said: "Hey... you did me dirty! You're doing me dirty! You're doing me dirty! You're doing me dirty! Am I on? Is this on? Is this on? Alright, cool, can you hear me now? Alright, cool, we got this. We're cool."

Judas and the Black Messiah will be available to stream in the UK from March 11.
