The romantic comedy 'Say a Little Prayer' is now widely available for digital release on major video-on-demand platforms, including Comcast, Apple TV, Amazon Prime, Google Play, Tubi, Roku, YouTube Movies, and Fandango at Home. This release timing coincides with both Valentine's Day and Galentine's Day celebrations, offering viewers content that addresses both romantic and platonic relationships.
The film's availability across multiple platforms like https://www.apple.com/apple-tv/ and https://www.amazon.com/primevideo makes it accessible to a broad audience during a period when romantic comedies traditionally see increased viewership. Screenwriter Nancy De Los Santos emphasized the dual appeal, stating that while Valentine's Day is ideal for romantic viewing, the film's celebration of friendship makes it equally suitable for Galentine's Day gatherings with friends.
This release is significant as it marks the feature film debut of Grammy Award-winning international recording artist Luis Fonsi, best known for 'Despacito.' Fonsi not only appears in the film but also contributes his first English-language song, 'The Prayer in Your Eyes,' potentially attracting his global fanbase to the project. The film follows three friends who recite an ancient prayer to the patron saint of 'all things lost,' triggering unpredictable events that test their friendship and transform their lives.
The cast includes notable performers such as Vannessa Vásquez from 'Divorce Bait,' Jackie Cruz from 'Orange is the New Black,' Vivian Lamolli from 'Queen of Manhattan,' Latin American legend Angélica María from 'House of Flowers,' Tatanka Means from 'Killers of the Flower Moon,' and comedian Chris Kattan from 'Saturday Night Live.' The musical contributions extend beyond Fonsi to include Tejana artist Shelly Lares, Los Angeles musician Nancy Sanchez, and The Last Bandoleros.
Behind the camera, Academy Award nominee Edward James Olmos and Luis Fonsi serve as Executive Producers, with Patrick Perez Vidauri directing and Cristina Nava of Migrant Filmworks producing. The film represents Migrant Filmworks' focus on producing content that features inclusive characters and appeals to worldwide audiences, particularly targeting the English-speaking US-born Latino audience, which is the fastest-growing cohort of moviegoers in the country today.
To celebrate the holidays, the filmmakers are running a promotion on the movie's social media, offering fans a chance to win a special box of Valentine's or Galentine's candy. The film's release on platforms like https://www.youtube.com/movies and https://www.fandango.com/fandango-at-home provides convenient viewing options during a season when people often seek entertainment that aligns with themes of love and friendship. This digital availability ensures the film can reach audiences regardless of theatrical distribution limitations, making it a timely addition to holiday viewing traditions.
