Multiple Delays in the Release Schedule in American Cinemas, 'MULAN' Targets Chinese Market

Kapanlagi.com - Since the coronavirus became a pandemic, almost all industries have been affected. From small businesses to large companies, they cannot operate as usual and can only work from home. The film industry is no exception, many of them who have completed their work now have to be sad because they can't satisfy the audience from the screen.

But KLovers, we need to be thankful because the current situation is starting to improve. Many public places are returning to normal, including cinemas. China is now following the UK in reopening some cinemas in the country. However, many major film production companies from Paramount, Universal, to Disney are still postponing the release of their films, and many films are premiering on streaming media instead.

Like this Disney film, a remake of the Disney cartoon titled MULAN also had multiple delays. The film, directed by Niki Caro, was originally scheduled to be released on March 27, then postponed again to July 24 to make the film more impressive and touching. However, due to the current situation, Disney has postponed the release date. Many people speculate that MULAN will be released via streaming like other films.

According to Screenrant.com, Disney announced its intention to release the film MULAN through various media platforms, with a cost of 30 USD. "MULAN will still be released in certain theaters where there is no Disney+ platform. And for the United States, Canada, and Australia, this film will be released through streaming," said Bob Chapek - Disney CEO.

Considering that there is no Disney+ streaming platform in China, MULAN will have its premiere in theaters with a new poster and release date that will be announced soon. With MULAN being released in China, Disney hopes to tap into a good market and make the film even more successful. The fact that MULAN is set in China itself will surely attract the attention of Chinese audiences.

In the Disney+ streaming platform, this film will be released on September 4th. Don't worry, Klovers, for those of you who want to watch MULAN and other popular films, you can watch them on Disney+. Disney+ Hotstar is now available in Indonesia. You can start streaming movies from September 5th!
