Evangelion 3.0+1.0: Thrice Upon a Time is heading to cinemas, but when, and how else can you watch this anime movie?

Despite making its debut in 1995, Neon Genesis Evangelion has continued to be one of the most popular animes of all time. The sci-fi thriller written by creator Hideaki Anno single-handedly shaped what we know as the mecha genre today. And now, the highly anticipated fourth and final film in his Rebuild of Evangelion film series is finally here.

With Evangelion 3.0+1.0: Thrice Upon a Time heading to UK cinemas, fans have been chomping at the bit to see how this epic existential sci-fi story plays out. Since anime movies – meaning anime movies from anime series – can often be seen as let downs, so it was a big deal to see whether or not Evangelion 3.0+1.0: Thrice Upon a Time would live up to the hype.

Thankfully, this seems to be exactly the case, as the finale movie offers just as much action, horror, and heart, and the classic series does. You can read our four star review of the movie here, but where can you watch the movie? Well, read on to find out.
