LOS ANGELES – July 17, 2026 – Cineverse (Nasdaq: CNVS), an entertainment technology company and studio, announced today that Due West will debut on Digital and Video on Demand on July 28, 2026.

“This film was made possible by the pure passion and grit of the cast and crew. More than any first time director could ask for.” says director and co-writer Evan Miller. “After seeing the reactions and conversations sparked in festival audiences across the country I am thrilled to be able to share it with a wider audience, and thankful for the wonderful home it has found at Cineverse.”
Due West stars Adrianne Palicki (Friday Night Lights, John Wick), Henry Thomas (E.T., Legends of the Fall), Ciara Bravo (Cherry, Small Engine Repair), Matt Lauria (Friday Night Lights, Sheriff Country) and Odette Annable (Cloverfield, The Unborn). The film is directed by Evan Miller, and written by Evan Miller and Hardy Janson.
“I’ve only been sure of two things in my life. The first, I knew I had to be an actor. The second, that I needed to be a part of Due West,” says Palicki. “When Evan brought me the script, I was absolutely blown away. Due West handles a difficult topic in a thoughtful way. To see how many people have been touched by this film through the festival circuit, and how well received it has been, has blown me away. I’m so incredibly thankful to Cineverse for believing in our film and helping it be brought to a much wider audience. We can’t wait to share it with the world.”
The official synopsis is as follows: Driven to the brink by a broken medical system, a small-town woman undertakes a journey across the vast, unforgiving terrain of West Texas. When her truck breaks down in the middle of nowhere, she is forced to navigate a series of encounters with strangers, facing both compassion and exploitation along the way. As isolation deepens and her condition worsens, each mile raises the stakes and pushes her closer to a life-changing decision. With time running out and her options narrowing, she takes control of her future in the only way left to her.
