Ticket to Paradise is coming to Peacock sooner than expected. Fans can watch George Clooney and Julia Roberts in the film at home on December 9th. The streamer announced the decision today and people are thrilled to experience the fun romantic comedy from the comfort of their couches. This year, other hits like Nope, Halloween Ends, Minions: The Rise of Gru, and Jurassic World Dominion all came home as well. NBCUniversal has been none too shy about growing their streaming platform and these kinds of fresh releases will really help in that regard. Attaching known names like Clooney and Roberts probably won’t hurt their efforts either. Variety actually sat down with the actress recently to preview Ticket to Paradise. She joked that it could all come crashing down, but viewers just like the chemistry between these two performers.

“Christ. I knew this would come up. Watch, the real acting happens now. Ready? [She puts on a big smile.] George, isn’t he great!?,” Roberts replied when Variety asked about Ticket to Paradise. “It is a romantic comedy. He plays my ex-husband. I think it’s so funny and George is so funny and George and I together, it’s probably going to be terrible because there’s too much potential for it to be great, it’ll just implode on it itself. I think that should be the commercial for the movie: ‘It’s probably going to be terrible.’ I’m so glad my publicist is on a plane right now.”
