Filter Doesn't work properly

I try to view a list with all the films released in 2024. I select the Movie, TV Movie, TV Special and Video categories in the Advanced Search section, then i insert the months from 2024-01 to 2024-12 and sort by Number of Ratings (i find this the most reliable metric when searching for movies). In the 19th place when using this search, there should be Challengers, directed by Luca Guadagnino, as it currently stands on 152k votes. But surprise! It doesnt. Actually, i can't see Challengers anywhere in this search, which is very weird. As I said, i use this search and metrics to find movies to watch. If Challengers is not there, I assume it isnt the only case, which would make me miss a lot of movies, if the search is missing on some movies. Why does this happen and whats the remedy, to make sure that IMDB search gives me the entire list of movies? https://www.imdb.com/search/title/?title_type=feature,tv_movie,tv_special,video&release_date=2024-01-01,2024-12-31&sort=num_votes,desc

According to the release info, Challengers had an "early access" release in 2022: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt16426418/releaseinfo/ Challengers does show in the search when you expand the date back to 2022 (I added Zendaya as a cast requirement to reduce the results): https://www.imdb.com/search/title/?title_type=feature,tv_movie,tv_special,video&release_date=2022-01-01,2024-12-31&role=nm3918035&sort=num_votes,desc

The "early access" release on April 18, 2022 for Challengers must be an error. The movie hadn't even started filming then: https://web.archive.org/web/20220502162313/https://www.boston.com/culture/entertainment/2022/04/19/challengers-movie-zendaya-filming-casting-extras-boston/ I will submit a deletion for that release date.
