Disney on Friday announced that it would be releasing the remainder of its 2021 films exclusively in theaters for an extended period before eventually making them available on Disney+ following the box office success of recent films despite the coronavirus pandemic.
The company’s media and entertainment division announced the move in a press release, revealing that each of its five upcoming movies will have a minimum 45-day exclusive theatrical release before being offered via streaming to subscribers.
The upcoming films include the November release of Marvel’s “Eternals,” which follows a group of immortal beings with superhuman powers, as well as the long-anticipated remake of the classic musical “West Side Story,” which is scheduled for a December premiere.
