Per Screen Engine's PostVOD audience summary, the film ranks as the biggest live-action streaming movie of the summer, starting with their summer reporting in May.
"I'm feeling pumped, to say the least, and filled with gratitude," he said in the video, taking time out from his relaxation at the beach. "If you haven't had a chance to see the movie, check it out. I'm so proud of my baby, she's all grown up and terrorizing the world with hideous aliens."
