Sacha Baron Cohen's 'Ali G: Who Iz I?' will stream on Prime Video less than a week after its theatrical release. The decision to move the film to streaming so quickly is unusual, but it's not the first time a high-profile film has been made available on Prime Video soon after its theatrical run.

According to TheWrap, the film's brief theatrical stint suggests that the studio may have been testing the waters to gauge audience interest before committing to a wider release. The Hollywood Reporter notes that this move is a significant departure from traditional release strategies, where films typically have a longer theatrical run before being made available on streaming platforms.

The timing of the release has not been universally confirmed, but multiple outlets, including Yahoo and The Hollywood Reporter, report that the film will be available on Prime Video in the coming days.
