The upcoming buddy comedy from Saturday Night Live's Please Don't Destroy comedy trio changes its release plan by moving from theaters to Peacock.
Saturday Night Live's Please Don't Destroy movie announces a change to its release plan. After breaking out online, the comedy trio known as Please Don't Destroy – which consists of Ben Marshall, John Higgins, and Martin Herlihy – were hired as writers for Saturday Night Live season 47 and also tasked with creating digital shorts à la The Lonely Island.

As confirmed by THR and several other outlets, the currently untitled buddy comedy will no longer release in theaters and instead premiere exclusively on Peacock on November 17.
The Theatrical Landscape Remains Tough For Comedies The decision to move the Please Don't Destroy movie from theaters to Peacock is probably a wise one. Given the current theatrical landscape, which is dominated by franchise fare, it's unlikely the standalone buddy comedy would have performed well anyway.
Even with a star-studded cast that includes Conan O’Brien, SNL's Bowen Yang, and Meg Stalter, this probably wouldn't have been enough to make the Please Don't Destroy movie a box-office success since it marks the trio's first starring roles. The exclusive streaming release will be more profitable for the studio and also give the buddy comedy a better chance of success on Peacock where other comedies like Jennifer Lopez's Marry Me have done well.
