We should expect to see these films released on Disney+ once the theatrical window is complete, but Disney is still experimenting on a case by case basis, on how quickly films are released on its streaming services.
There are a few things I noticed from the new schedule, we should expect to see more National Geographic and Searchlight Pictures films released in cinemas. But those tend to have limited engagements.
It’s also very noticeable that Disney has drastically cut back on the number of 20th Century Studios theatrical releases, because more films will now be heading directly to Disney’s streaming services.
