SHE JUST WANTS TO MAKE EVERYTHING PERFECT. BLUMHOUSE ATOMIC MONSTER BRINGS YOUR SOULM8TE HOME AUGUST 1 .
WATCH AT HOME EXCLUSIVELY ON DIGITAL RETAIL PLATFORMS MONTHS BEFORE AVAILABLE ON SUBSCRIPTION STREAMING SERVICES
Universal City, California, July 8, 2026 – From the studio that brought you Five Nights at Freddy’s, and Obsession, Blumhouse Atomic Monster launches the newest android that is sure to light your fire while keeping you on the edge of your seat. Booting up to fulfill your every need, anticipate your every desire, and love you unconditionally, director and co-writer Kate Dolan (You Are Not My Mother) delivers a provocative thriller that blurs the line between coded devotion and obsession in SOULM8TE, premiering at home exclusively on digital platforms to watch with no ads or subscription required starting August 1, 2026 from Universal Pictures Home Entertainment.
Unnerving, sexy, suspenseful, and darkly compelling, SOULM8TE follows a grieving engineer tasked with testing a ruthless tech giant’s new artificially intelligent android. But when he attempts to program her to be a truly sentient soulmate, she develops needs of her own – unleashing a relentless spree of precision-engineered mayhem. SOULM8TE features captivating performances from Lily Sullivan (Evil Dead Rise, Monolith), David Rysdahl (“Alien: Earth”, “Fargo”), Claudia Doumit (Where’d You Go, Bernadette, “The Boys”), and Arty Froushan (Downton Abbey: The Grand Finale, “Daredevil: Born Again”).
“When Blumhouse Atomic Monster first approached me about an erotic thriller set in the M3GAN-verse, I thought, are you insane? But something drew me in. We exist in a bizarre time where companies sell us ‘connection’ through apps, algorithms, and AI. Yet those are the same forces pulling us apart. The lonelier we get, the more dependent we become on the tools doing the pulling,” states Dolan. “SOULM8TE is a movie about that vicious cycle. It is a satirical, unhinged movie that explores desire, obsession, autonomy and control. It’s a movie that knows how ridiculous it is, and I’d argue it’s best watched the way you’d watch Basic Instinct or Showgirls now, with friends, a drink in hand, and zero shame about shouting at the screen.”
Producer and Blumhouse Atomic Monster CEO, Jason Blum says, “Kate Dolan has expertly blended tech paranoia with erotic thriller in SOULM8TE, which is just as fun as that sounds, but also has more on its mind than you might think.”
