LOS ANGELES: Walt Disney Co’s live-action epic “Mulan” will skip most of the world’s movie theaters and go directly to the company’s streaming platform in September, the media giant said on Tuesday.
US subscribers to Disney+ will need to pay $30 to stream “Mulan” in their homes, Disney Chief Executive Bob Chapek said on a call with investors after the company reported quarterly earnings.
The cost will vary slightly in other countries including Canada, Australia and New Zealand and in parts of Western Europe, Chapek said. The decision came amid uncertainty about when big movie theater chains in the United States will be able to reopen after being shuttered since mid-March because of the coronavirus pandemic.
“Mulan” will be released Sept. 4 in movie theaters that do not currently have the Disney+ platform and where movie theaters are back in business, Chapek added.
The service is not available in the Middle East, which means fans in the region will be able to watch the movie in cinemas.
