Godzilla vs. Kong may be the latest studio tentpole bypassing a cinema release and going straight to streaming. According to , Netflix made an offer of more than $200 million for the movie. However, distributor WarnerMedia blocked the deal and is reportedly preparing an offer of its own for HBO Max.

Godzilla vs. Kong was o𝔍riginally due to be released in November 2020, but it’s currently scheduled for May 2021. Even if cinemas are up and running again by then, there’ll be a backlog of releases that were delayed due to the pandemic. 

Directed by Adam Wingard, the movie’s all-star cast includes 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Stranger Things’ Millie Bobby Brown, Big Little Lies’ Alexander Skarsgård, and 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse’s Bryan Tyree Henry. It’s the fourth instalment of Legendary Picture’s Monsterverse, which began in 2014 with a reboot of 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Godzilla. This was followed up by 2017’s 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Kong: Skull Island and 2019’s 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Godzilla: King of the Monsters.

If WarnerMedia does opt for a streamer release, it wouldn’t be the only company to make that decision in light of disruption caused by the pandemic. Disney is reportedly considering 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Disney Plus premieres for Cruella ꦺand its live-action remakes of Pinocchio and Peter Pan after Mulan skipped a theatrical release. 

Elsewhere, DCEU sequel 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Wonder Woman 1984 will now get a 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:duel release on HBO Max and in cinemas, despite director Patty Jenkins previously stating that a direct to streaming release was 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:“not even being discussed.” If this pandemi🎶c has shown us anything, it🅰’s that nothing is ever set in stone.
